Results Day Accounting Check

Forensic check of accounting on day of earnings

Prompt

Create a pinned memory called "Results Day Accounting Work".

When I say "do my results day accounting work", run a fresh accounting red-flags review on the company's latest results.

The workflow should:
• Review the latest release, statements, and commentary for accounting red flags
• Focus on what changed since the last reporting period
• Compare against the immediately prior reporting period and the same period last year
• Distinguish between quarterly/interim noise and more meaningful annual or structural changes
• Refer back to any prior accounting / forensic / red-flags work already done on the company
• Use my pinned accounting red-flags memory as a guide, not an exhaustive checklist
• Also look for new or company-specific issues not covered by that note
• Produce an updated note, not just a rerun of the old one

Preferred output structure:
1. Previously identified red flags
2. What changed this period
3. YoY vs sequential checks
4. Quarterly-specific noise vs structural concern
5. New watchpoints
6. Overall accounting risk view now

Use my pinned memory "Forensic Accounting Red Flags" as a guide, but not as an exhaustive checklist.
