Important Data Accuracy Notice: QuantLink aggregates data from multiple sources and applies normalization, calculation, and display logic. This process may introduce discrepancies compared to data obtained directly from the original sources or from other platforms.

You should be aware that:

  • Data may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies at any point in the data pipeline (original source, transmission, processing, display)
  • Financial metrics calculated by QuantLink (e.g., ratios, growth rates, scores) may use different formulas or methodologies than other platforms, resulting in different values for the same metric
  • Corporate actions (stock splits, reverse splits, dividends, mergers, spinoffs) may not be reflected immediately and may temporarily distort historical data
  • Different data providers may report different values for the same data point due to differences in methodology, timing, or data collection practices
  • QuantLink does not independently audit or verify all data received from third-party providers

Always independently verify critical data before making investment decisions. See our Financial Disclaimer for complete risk disclosures.

QuantLink processes and normalizes raw data from multiple providers. Our methodology includes:

  • Adjustment for Corporate Actions: Adjusting historical prices for stock splits, reverse splits, dividends, and other corporate actions
  • Metric Calculation: Computing derived metrics (e.g., P/E ratio, EV/EBITDA, free cash flow yield) from underlying data using QuantLink's proprietary formulas
  • Data Aggregation: Combining data from multiple sources to provide the most comprehensive and accurate view possible
  • Quality Checks: Applying automated quality checks and anomaly detection to identify and flag potential data errors

Differences in methodology may result in values that differ from those reported by other platforms or data providers for the same metric.

Data displayed on QuantLink is subject to licensing agreements with our data providers. You may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, or make available any data from QuantLink to third parties without prior written consent.
