Form 10-Q, the quarterly report
Form 10-Q is the quarterly report every US SEC-reporting company files for the first three fiscal quarters: unaudited interim financial statements, MD&A updates, and the officer certifications that go with them.
TakePublic drafts the 10-Q from your connected books, routes it through your auditor's interim review and your securities attorney, and files it to EDGAR. Nothing files without that attorney's sign-off on the exact document.

When the 10-Q is due
The due date is set by your filer status and runs from each fiscal quarter end. Due dates falling on a weekend or SEC holiday roll forward to the next business day, and EDGAR deadlines run on Eastern Time (ET).
| Filer status | Deadline after quarter end |
|---|---|
| Large accelerated filer | 40 calendar days |
| Accelerated filer | 40 calendar days |
| Non-accelerated filer | 45 calendar days |
Weekend and SEC holiday due dates roll to the next business day. All deadlines ET.
Running late: the NT 10-Q
If the 10-Q will not be ready on time, Rule 12b-25 lets you file a Form NT 10-Q no later than one business day after the due date.
- 5-day extensionA properly filed NT 10-Q extends the deadline by 5 calendar days.
- Visible clockTakePublic's compliance calendar tracks both dates and escalates alerts by email and SMS, so an extension is a deliberate choice with the clock visible.
How TakePublic handles the 10-Q
Draft from source material
AI drafts the narrative sections from your trial balance, onboarding answers, and prior filings, with every sentence traceable to its source. Your ledger supplies the numbers; the model reads summary and flux figures but never generates a statement figure.
Present and tie out the statements
The income statement compares to the same quarter of the prior year, the balance sheet to the prior fiscal year end, and cash flow columns are fiscal year-to-date. A tie-out report runs on every draft before review.
Clear auditor review
The 10-Q cannot skip your PCAOB auditor and cannot leave auditor review until the interim review report is attached.
Authenticate and sign
Both the principal executive and principal financial officers authenticate their Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications against the exact document hash. Your securities attorney signs off on the SHA-256 hash, and any later edit forces a re-review.
File or export
After sign-off, submit to EDGAR through TakePublic with Inline XBRL included, or export the filing package to your own EDGAR agent.

Frequently asked questions
When is my 10-Q due?
40 calendar days after quarter end for accelerated and large accelerated filers, and 45 calendar days for non-accelerated filers. Due dates on a weekend or SEC holiday roll to the next business day. All deadlines ET.
What happens if we file the 10-Q late?
A late 10-Q makes the company delinquent and can affect Form S-3 eligibility, exchange listing, or OTC market tier status. Filing a Form NT 10-Q within one business day of the due date buys 5 calendar days.
Does the auditor review a 10-Q?
Yes. Your PCAOB auditor performs an interim review. TakePublic routes the 10-Q through auditor review and will not clear it to counsel until the interim review report is attached. TakePublic does not replace your auditor.
Who signs off before the 10-Q files?
Your securities attorney signs off on the exact document hash. Both officers also authenticate their certifications. TakePublic is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.
Which plan covers the 10-Q?
TakePublic Core, from $2,999 per month, covers the 10-Q along with the 10-K, 8-K, NT notices, the compliance calendar, and the counsel workflow.
