INFY reports Revenue Breakouts by verticals. This important data is available only in filings and must be manually assembled for analysis.

Our data extraction technology allows us to assemble such time-series data at a fraction of the cost of doing it manually.

Our Associates then use a proprietary Excel Add-in to build earnings models, comps and other analytics for clients in the buy-side, sell-side, investment banking and other industries.




Research Data Analytics

Company research is highly data intensive. As the amount of data to be analyzed keeps increasing, analysts find themselves swamped with the low value-adding tasks of assembling data and managing spreadsheets with little time left for applying their insight to research outcomes.

Gridstone Services are designed to take the pain of company research away. In performing these services we use our own Research Platform, resulting in quality and efficiency levels that are unmatched amongst research service providers. Tools from our Research Platform, like the Excel Add-in are also made available to our clients.

Our Services include:

By-the-ticker Services

For purchased tickers, clients get one or more of the following:

  • An earnings model custom-built to the client’s specifications.
  • Historical data - all line-items, as-reported and fully auditable via source-linking.
  • Regular data updates on all line-items. Separate updates for Q/Ks and Earnings Releases. Updating the model becomes just a matter of refreshing your model.
  • The use of our Excel Add-in and Website for the client to make changes to the model themselves.

Pricing is by-the-ticker. It is a great way to start small while you are trying things out.

Custom Projects

With Gridstone’s highly automated data extraction capabilities, building and maintaining industry comps and aggregates becomes easy. They come with the ancillary benefit of source-linking.

Examples of industry data:

  • Brand-wise auto shipments.
  • ARPU and churn rates for wireless comms companies.

For industry comps or any other custom project, the client specifies their requirements upfront. Gridstone, then quotes a fixed fee for the project.

Dedicated Research Associates

Gridstone Associates are typically MBAs with extensive training and some experience in company research. They are proficient with Excel, financial data and the use of the Gridstone platform.
