Where does Trefis get the historical numbers used in forecasts?
Whenever available we take figures provided by the company through their financial filings, press releases, investor presentations or other publicly available information. In many cases, we use historical numbers publicly available by third-party sources or by triangulating figures using available information and reasonable assumptions based on our understanding of a business. For each forecast, we have section called “How we got historical data” which explains how the historical data for that particular forecast was attained.
