5 years fundamental ratios always None

Hello,

I've noted, that the 5 years fundamental ratios like

  • fundamentals.operation_ratios.avg5_yrs_roic
  • fundamentals.operation_ratios.gross_profit_annual5_yr_growth,
  • fundamentals.operation_ratios.roa5_yr

never have a value.

Here a small program to test it

Costantino,

I was able to dig into these today and properly do the investigation I can do.

For the ROIC and ROA metric, it seems as though no data is making it into our database for those. I'm not seeing any raw data for those metrics at all. We're not sure why and we've created a bug to investigate further.

For the gross profit metric, it looks like the data that comes from Morningstar is for 1 year and 3 year periods. Right now, our API only surfaces values for 3 month (quarterly) periods. So that metric won't be populated until we incorporate the longer frequency data like 1Y.

Thanks a lot for the update!
Maybe also the ROIC and ROA ratios will be populated, when you will include the 1Y frequency ratio?

I'm looking forward to getting this new feature!
