The Corporate Directory of US Public Companies 2008
Walker's Research, Jan 2008, Pages: 2,600
Essential financial and business data for over 11,000 U.S. public companies including foreign companies filing American Depositary Receipts (ADRs). Published annually in January, includes eight indexes.
What is The Corporate Directory?
- Updated annually, it is a convenient, comprehensive single-volume or single-disk reference that provides a wealth of business information on the more than 11,000 publicly traded companies in the United States.
- Published since 1989, The Corporate Directory covers publicly held companies traded on the New York or American stock exchanges, NASDAQ, or other over-the-counter markets (including 1,200 foreign companies filing American Depository Receipts).
Features of the Directory:
The directory provides much more financial information than any other publication of its kind, including 5 years of sales/income/earnings per share data, key financial ratios and balance sheet statistics, dividend and price information.
It provides insider ownership information such as the total shares owned by officers and directors, names/holdings of 5% or more owners and total number of shareholders.
This directory is the only publication to provide salaries and ages of officers and directors as well as their full names and titles.
More indexing (8 indexes total) - look up officers and directors; find subsidiaries; locate companies by geographic region; search by type of business.
Significantly less expensive than any other directory of its kind, making this the best value on the market!
Why buy The Corporate Directory when you can access the Internet?
- Because TIME IS MONEY and every minute you spend scrolling through irrelevant information is time that could have been directed to productive work or play
- Because you want a snapshot of a company's operations and management without wading through pages of marketing tactics or taking a public relations tour
- Because you want a phone number, address, and executive's name, so you can contact a live person instead of sending a message to an anonymous e-mail address; and
- Because it is a concise, convenient and easy-to-use reference that facilitates your web search while reducing information overload
