Get latest press release per company / query by attachment name and date about edgartools

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into it, maybe add press release as a property of 8-Ks

[dgunning]

Not all 8-K's have a Press Release attached, as your numbers show. I have added a property called press_release that will return the press release if it has one

filings = get_filings(form='8-K')
filiing = filings[0]
eightk = filing.obj()
press_release = eight.press_release

I have completed and tested this feature. Will release tomorrow

Released version 2.11.0

Thanks for the quick update, I've actually found that some companies name the press release as EX 99 and not EX 99.1, see for example ACN:

cik = 'ACN'
after = '2023-01-01'
filings = Company(cik).get_filings(form="8-K").filter(date=f"{after}:")

NEWS RELEASE OF ACCENTURE, DATED DECEMBER 19, 2023 fy24q1earnings8-kexhibit.htm EX-99 324.4 KB

So we need to check for both. Maybe they aggregate all EX.* exhibits under the same in this case

[dgunning]

OK. Good catch. Will look into this.

[dgunning]

There are many different ways to label Exhibit 99.
