Fiscal years are lined up as each company's 10-K names them; the month next to a ticker is when its year ends. Hover a number for the XBRL line items and the filing; click it to open the filing on sec.gov. "n/m" means not meaningful: equity below zero, or a base so close to zero that the ratio says nothing. The peer median leaves out CSCO and needs at least three peers with the number. P/E, P/S and P/FCF at each year end appear here once the site has daily prices.

Work on CSCO in a spreadsheet: Excel workbook (a sheet per section, ten years by column, charts, links to the filings) · CSV. For a Google Sheet that stays up to date, paste =IMPORTDATA("https://tickdelta.com/company/CSCO/export.csv") into a cell.
