Frequently asked questions
When is my 10-K due?
60 calendar days after fiscal year end for large accelerated filers, 75 for accelerated, 90 for non-accelerated. Weekend and SEC holiday due dates roll to the next business day. All deadlines ET.
What happens if we file the 10-K late?
The company is delinquent: Form S-3 eligibility can lapse, listing or OTC tier status is at risk, and the late filing stays visible on EDGAR. An NT 10-K within one business day of the due date buys 15 calendar days.
Does TakePublic audit our financial statements?
No. Your PCAOB auditor does. In Core, the auditor works from a seat in the workflow and the 10-K cannot proceed until the audit report is attached. Auditor access comes with Core.
Who signs off before the 10-K files?
Your own securities attorney, from a free counsel seat. The sign-off is bound to the exact document version. TakePublic is not a law firm.
Which plan covers the 10-K?
TakePublic Core, in closed beta, with the 10-Q, 8-K, NT notices, the Company calendar and the counsel workflow.
