What this dataset contains

The dataset catalogs Form 8-K filings, which U.S. public companies use to disclose material corporate events. It contains approximately 1,861,733 rows in the training split, with a size tag indicating between one million and ten million total records. Coverage spans filer identifiers, filing dates, item codes, and registrant details drawn from EDGAR submissions. License terms are not stated in the source materials.

Structure and fields

Records are delivered as tabular text data in Parquet files and are accessible via the datasets, Dask, MLCroissant, and Polars libraries. Key string columns include kl3m_id, cik, name, filingDate, form, accessionNumber, core_type, primaryDocDescription, items, entityType, ownerOrg, ein, description, website, investorWebsite, phone, tickers, exchanges, sic, sicDescription, fiscalYearEnd, stateOfIncorporation, formerNames, reportDate, acceptanceDateTime, act, fileNumber, and filmNumber. A single integer column named size is also present.

How analysts use it

Event-driven and fundamental investors can filter by tickers, exchanges, sic, or item codes to assemble a historical log of material events for a universe of public companies. The cik and accessionNumber fields support downstream linking back to full EDGAR documents for natural-language analysis of press releases, M&A disclosures, and guidance changes. The dataset is best suited as a metadata index rather than a primary alternative-data feed.
