2 Checks Before You Trust a 10-K

First, the auditor’s report: Ernst & Young, Apple’s auditor since 2009, writes that the financial statements “present fairly, in all material respects” Apple’s financial position. The SEC calls the auditor’s report a key part of the 10-K and says most express this kind of clean, unqualified opinion. Second, the certifications: the CEO and CFO must certify the report, and the SEC says they’re usually in Exhibits 31 and 32. The SEC itself does not vouch for the accuracy of a 10-K or 10-Q.
