The item

Item 1.03 of Form 8-K is Bankruptcy or Receivership. A company files it when it enters bankruptcy or a receiver is appointed for it, and again when a court acts on a plan, so one case can be reported in more than one filing.

As filed

Facts as filed with the SEC, and our counts of them. Not investment advice.

A company files a Form 8-K, usually within four business days, when one of these events happens. Each filing lists the items it reports.

A count is of Form 8-K filings, not of companies or of events: a filing that names several companies counts once, a filing that reports more than one of these items counts under each, and one event can be reported in more than one filing.

A filing is counted in the month of the date the SEC gives it, and a month is shown only when every business day of it has been read in full. The month being filled is left out until it is complete.

The item says what kind of event a company reports, not how large it is, who is affected or whether it is settled.
