Overview
Master the 8-K is a clear, concise, and comprehensive guide to filing the SEC’s Current Report on Form 8-K that every securities lawyer or person who is responsible for a company’s periodic SEC reports will want to have close at hand. Like its counterparts Master the 10-K and 10-Q and Master the Proxy Statement, this step-by-step guide draws on the expertise of author Gary M. Brown to deliver clear explanations, detailed guidance, and essential practice tips. Master the 8-K includes sample disclosure language, and detailed appendices containing the Form 8-K itself, key regulations, and SEC compliance and disclosure interpretations (C&DIs)—everything you need to become an 8-K expert.
Master the 8-K begins with an overview of the Form 8-K requirements and principles generally applicable to all Form 8-K Items, then each Form 8-K Item is separately analyzed to alert you to critical matters about that Item and provide step-by-step instructions and expert practice tips.
