Explore the SEC'S EDGAR site: http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml. Look at the "Descriptions of SEC Forms" page to familiarize yourself with the types of fil- ings that firms make. Then click on "Search for Company Filings" for the filings of firms you are interested in. Forms 10-K (annual reports) and 10-Q (quarterly reports) will be of primary interest.
