The Moody’s Corporation (MCO) SEC filings page on Stock Titan provides access to the company’s regulatory disclosures as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Moody’s is a New York Stock Exchange registrant, with its common stock and certain senior notes listed, and it reports under the Exchange Act through forms such as Form 8-K. These filings document material events, governance changes, compensation plans, and financial results that are relevant to shareholders and bondholders.
Recent Form 8-K filings illustrate the range of topics covered. Moody’s has reported board and management changes, including director resignations and the election of new directors, as well as updates to committee assignments. It has disclosed amendments to its Amended and Restated By-Laws, particularly around advance notice procedures for stockholder nominations and proposals, and changes to the Moody’s Corporation 2001 Key Employees’ Stock Incentive Plan, addressing definitions, vesting flexibility, and treatment upon death or disability.
Filings also include earnings announcements and outlook updates, where Moody’s furnishes press releases detailing results of operations and financial condition for specific quarters, and references to the availability of those materials on its investor relations website and on the SEC’s EDGAR system. Other 8-Ks note matters such as the resignation of senior officers within Moody’s Analytics.
