Balance Sheet

What is Cash & Equivalents?

Cash on hand and near-cash holdings such as money-market funds.

How it is calculated

Reported cash and cash equivalents at the period end.

How to read it

Add short-term investments to see the full liquidity cushion. Net debt does that for you.

Where the numbers come from

Scrutar computes Cash & Equivalents from the figures each company reports to the SEC in its annual and quarterly filings, using the XBRL data attached to those filings.
