An annual report is a document that public corporations are legally obligated to publish for their stockholders each year. In addition to a narrative describing the company’s accomplishments for the year, it provides other specific details to help shareholders evaluate the company’s financial situation and trajectory. In the United States, companies submit their annual report, called a Form 10-K to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
