Upon logging in, you’ll be directed to the homepage of the A-INSIGHTS portal, where you’ll find widgets for each of the main sections.
Company updates
In the ‘Company updates’ widget, you’ll find an overview of companies with recently updated figures. Clicking on a company will redirect you to that particular company, while clicking on ‘view all companies’ will redirect you to the Companies section of your A-INSIGHTS portal, where you can find an overview of all companies in your selection.
Filing progress
The filing progress widget shows you the percentage and number of companies that have financials available per year. This allows you to easily track who has already filed their figures for the most recent year, and who might still be missing. Clicking on any year in the filing progress widget will redirect you to the Companies section, where you’ll see all companies with their figures for the year you’ve clicked on.
Note: Companies are free to report their own definition of a financial year, i.e. financial years don't always start on January 1st and end on December 31st. Click on a particular company to see what financial year it uses
Top 5 and Bottom 5 performers
You’ll also see two widgets with the top 5 performers and the bottom 5 performers. These widgets show you the companies with the five highest and lowest % EBIT or % EBITDA (depending on your settings) for the most recent year for which we have data for at least 55% of companies in your selection. We use the 55% rule to ensure that the top 5 and bottom 5 performers paint a representative picture of your selection of companies. Clicking on ‘view more’ will redirect you to the Companies section of your portal and show all companies ranked on profitability (in ascending or descending order depending on whether you’ve clicked top 5 or bottom 5).
News
In the News widget, you’ll find the most recent news articles on companies in your selection. Each news article is linked to the company it applies to, and tagged with a label indicating what category the news article is about. Clicking on the news article will open a new tab in your browser, directing you to the original source of the article. Clicking on ‘view more’ will redirect you to the News section, where you’ll find an overview of all news articles on the companies in your selection.
Benchmarks
In Benchmarks, you'll see a randomly selected sample of companies in your selection benchmarked on certain ratios. In the dropdown, you can switch between certain financial ratios. Click on 'Start benchmarking' at the bottom to set up your own selections and benchmarks.
Earnings updates
Here you'll find a link to audio recording of the most recent earnings update of companies in your selection, as well as an overview of earnings updates that are coming up next. You can see whether a company has earnings updates available by the bullhorn icon that is displayed alongside the company name and logo in the portal.
Documents
Under Documents, you see an overview of recently uploaded documents to your portal. This could be annual statements, company analyses, CSR reports, or project documents.
