How we verify · 5 failures · 5 divergences in 38 reconciliationsAUDITED

No fiscal year had a computed check that closed clean. 5 of those reconciliations are divergences — the figures exist but don't fit the formula this check expects; that isn't the same as an error. 18 checks were skipped: the balance sheet is not tagged before 2016. Eight checks were skipped: EPS is not tagged before 2015.
