You should access the most recent SEC 10-K filing of a Fortune 500 publicly traded company. This is often available at the company’s web site. Look for “Investor Information” or “Company Information”. You may also find the report using the SEC EDGAR system. Save the file to your computer for access. Do not print as the report is usually 100 pages or more. Post the name of your company in the SEC 10-K company for approval by your professor. Each student must select a different company, so read the company names selected by classmates. Also, your selected company must be ranked 500 or higher on the Fortune 500 list of industrial companies. You will use this company for discussion in the conferences during the semester. You will write a 2 – 3 pages paper, single spaced, one inch margins, 12 pt font with double spaces between paragraphs. Your paper should assess the financial health of the company that you selected. You should use the financial statements, the notes to the financial statements and conduct other research to completely evaluate the company.
