Roll-Forward

Roll-forward is the first task of every close cycle: carrying the prior period filing into a current-period draft with all fiscal year references, period dates, exhibit cross-references, and boilerplate updated in context. Upload your last 10-K or 10-Q. Get back a current-period draft with a redline. Approved language stays intact.

Today's reality

Roll-Forward without Finrep

  • 2 to 5 days of manual carry-forward before drafting begins
  • Find-and-replace errors across 200+ pages that slip through review
  • Approved language accidentally reworded, triggering re-review cycles
  • No single view of what changed between source and new draft

SEC Reporting · Pre-Draft

The close calendar loses its first week to copy-paste

The filing cycle has a fixed deadline and a predictable opening act: someone opens last year's 10-K and starts updating. Fiscal year references scattered across Item 7, Item 8, and every footnote. Period-end dates in dozens of tables. Exhibit numbers that shifted mid-cycle. Boilerplate that legal approved last cycle and must carry forward verbatim.

It's transcription with consequences. A missed date in Note 15 becomes a comment letter. A reworded risk factor triggers a re-review cycle.

What changes when roll-forward is done before the close cycle starts

Context-aware date and reference updating

Every fiscal year reference and period-end date updated based on document context, not string matching. "Fiscal year ended January 28, 2025" updates to the correct successor date in every location. 500+ temporal references per typical 10-K.

Reviewer-approved language preservation

Boilerplate, risk factors, and legal disclosures approved in the prior cycle carry forward without alteration. The redline confirms preservation explicitly. Covers Item 1A, MD&A forward-looking statements, and all footnotes with committee approval.

Exhibit and cross-reference remapping

Exhibit numbers, "See Note 12" references, and Item-to-footnote linkages remapped based on current filing structure. Handles Exhibit 10, 21, 23, and 31/32 series plus all internal cross-references.

Redline as a first-class deliverable

Structured output showing every mechanical update, every preserved section, every cross-reference change. Categories: date updates, reference remapping, boilerplate preservation, exhibit renumbering.
