NFM - Nonfinancial Measures Search & Research Information
This website is a free search/research tool developed by Professors Joseph F. Brazel at
North Carolina State University and Keith L. Jones at George Mason University and funded by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation.*
The site allows the user to search the two most recent 10-K filings for reported nonfinancial measures related to a company’s operations. The website contains a difference calculator which allows the user to compare trends in financial information (e.g., sales revenue growth) with nonfinancial information (e.g., growth in total number of employees, products, customers, stores, retail outlets, distribution dealers, etc).
