Our Methodology and Results

Even honestly prepared, standards-compliant financial statements fail to accurately reflect the economics of the company preparing them. This isn’t an indictment of CEOs or CFOs. This is an indictment of GAAP, IFRS, and everything in between.

Current accounting guidelines allow companies to do all sorts of things to their books, or even force management teams to make accounting electives that misrepresent economic reality. That means investors using as-reported financials to make decisions are leaving results up to pure luck.

The most successful investors of our generation know this, and are already way ahead of the pack. They have been taking as-reported financials and making adjustments for years, to make sure the numbers match reality. It’s the only way to make money.

Now, Valens Research is bringing the same high-quality accounting adjustments to all investors. We are bringing Uniform Adjusted Financial Reporting Standards, or UAFRS, to everyone. Even individuals, or small advisors can get the same, economically accurate financial data that some of the best investors in the world are using.
