Financial statements

Get balance sheets

Fetches a company’s balance sheet history: assets, liabilities, and shareholders’ equity at each period end. Sourced and joined the same way as /financials/income-statements. ttm balance rows are point-in-time (carried from the latest quarter, not summed) and omit fiscal_period, currency, and filing identity.

period default note: the underlying get_balance_sheet MCP tool’s own JSON Schema default is “ttm”, matching Financial Datasets. This REST route always fills a period value before calling that tool, so an omitted period query parameter defaults to “annual” here instead.

X-API-KEY

string

header

required

The caller's own Monid API key (get one at https://monid.ai?fpr=dhruv-15136b). Passed straight through to Monid on every call, so usage bills the caller's own wallet — this is never a shared server-side credential, and the server never logs or stores it. Missing, empty, or malformed values answer 401 unauthorized before any paid call is attempted.

Query Parameters

ticker

string

required

Uppercase-normalized ticker symbol (1-20 letters/digits/dots/hyphens).

period

enum<string>

default:annual

Reporting period. REST-level default is "annual"; the tool/FD-schema default is "ttm".

Available options:

annual,

quarterly,

ttm

limit

integer

default:4

Number of records to retrieve (default: 4, max: 100).

Required range: 1 <= x <= 100

as_reported

boolean

default:false

Accepted for FD parameter parity but always rejected: as_reported=true answers 400 bad_request ("as_reported is not supported; use the normalized balance-sheets endpoint") at zero cost.

report_period

string<date>

Exact report_period date filter (YYYY-MM-DD).

report_period_gte

string<date>

report_period >= this date (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive).

report_period_lte

string<date>

report_period <= this date (YYYY-MM-DD, inclusive).

report_period_gt

string<date>

report_period > this date (YYYY-MM-DD, exclusive).

report_period_lt

string<date>

report_period < this date (YYYY-MM-DD, exclusive).

cursor

string

Opaque base64url pagination cursor from a previous response's next_page_url. Omit for the first page.

Response

A page of balance sheets, newest report_period first. Real AAPL FY2025 annual values captured from our own live API (docs/our-live-samples/balance_sheets.json).

Wrapped list envelope: {"balance_sheets": [...], "next_page_url": "..."}. Page size is 10 records (100 for /prices).

balance_sheets

BalanceSheet · object[]

required

Show child attributes

next_page_url

string<uri>

Absolute URL for the next page, present only when more records remain. Built from an opaque base64url cursor over this deployment's own host (never a fixed facade base).
