Examples and Usage
Below are straightforward examples demonstrating various ways to call this formula:
- Retrieve yearly data for a stock:
=hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", 2022)
- Retrieve data for a specific quarter:
=hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", 2022, 3)
- Retrieve trailing twelve months (TTM) data:
=hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", 2022, 3, "TTM")
- Use relative dates for quick lookups:
=hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", "lq") =hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", "ly-1")
- Reference a date within a cell or via functions (if you store years in cells or dynamically determine them). For instance, if A1 has 2023:
=hf_Income_Restructuring_and_MandA("MSFT", A1)

Common Questions
-
What if I get "NA" as a result?
• Verify that your MarketXLS license supports historical fundamental data.
• Double-check the symbol format and year/quarter values.
• If the data is not published or not available for a certain period, "NA" may appear. -
Is there a performance impact of frequent calls?
• Repeatedly calling multiplehf_...
formulas in a large spreadsheet can increase recalculation time. If performance slows, consider retrieving data in batches or using MarketXLS caching features. -
Can I use this function with indices, crypto, or options?
• Yes. Just ensure you provide the correct symbol format (e.g., "^SPX" for the S&P 500 index, "BTCUSD:DEFAULT" for Bitcoin). If the data is unavailable for that symbol, you may see "NA." -
How do I combine TTM data with other metrics?
• You can place TTM results in a column, then compare them side by side with other fundamentals (like net income, EPS, etc.) for deeper analysis. -
Why does the formula sometimes return a text value?
• If the underlying data is non-numeric (e.g., an error message), the function may pass that text straight back to Excel. In most cases, numeric results are returned.
