New FeatureAll plans

Release of the Valuation Indicators API

  • The Valuation Indicators API, which delivers daily valuation indicators calculated from financial statement disclosures and share prices, is now available. It can be used on all plans.
    • Eight indicators are provided: EPS, FwdEPS, BPS, ROE, FwdROE, PER, FwdPER and PBR. Actual figures are based on trailing twelve months (TTM) net income, and forward figures are based on the company's forecast of net income for the current fiscal year.
    • Market capitalization (MktCap, in millions of JPY) is also recorded. It is calculated as the share price multiplied by the share count excluding treasury shares, so its value may not match market capitalization in the Daily Stock Prices (OHLC) API, which uses a share count that includes treasury shares.
  • File download (CSV download / Bulk API) is also supported for the Light plan and above.
Update

[Advance Notice] Market capitalization (MktCap) will be removed from the Daily Stock Prices (OHLC) API

  • Market capitalization in the Valuation Indicators API is calculated using a share count that excludes treasury shares.
  • Accordingly, market capitalization (MktCap) in the response of the Daily Stock Prices (OHLC) API, which is calculated with a share count that includes treasury shares, is scheduled to be removed. We will announce the removal date once it has been decided.
  • Market capitalization is provided by the Valuation Indicators API, so please consider switching your reference. Note that the two APIs define the share count differently, so the values may not match.

Added amendment report data to the Large Volume Holding Reports (EDINET) API, with the document management number of the amended document and the reporting obligation date as response fields

  • Amendment Reports (document type code 360) have been added to the Large Volume Holding Reports (EDINET) API data.
    • An Amendment Report does not replace the document it amends; it is added as a separate record.
    • The document management number of the document being amended (ParDocId) was added to the response fields. Amendment Report (6) was added to the report type code (LargeHldgTypeCode).
  • The reporting obligation date (RptOblgDate) was added to the response fields.

  • Semiannual and quarterly reports have been added to the Major Shareholders (EDINET) API data.

Update

Added market capitalization and ex-rights type to Daily Stock Prices (OHLC)

  • We added market capitalization (MktCap) and ex-rights type (ExRT) to the response of the Daily Stock Prices (OHLC) API. Available for all plans.
    • Market capitalization is calculated as "close price (before adjustment) × number of listed shares" and recorded in millions of JPY (rounded to the nearest million).
    • Ex-rights type is a code indicating the corporate action type on the ex-rights date (1: Stock split, 2: Reverse stock split, 3: Rights issue). Null is recorded on days with no applicable corporate action.
