The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may be preparing a proposal that could eliminate the requirement for publicly traded companies to file quarterly earnings reports. You can read more about that here: https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/us-sec-preparing-eliminate-quarterly-reporting-requirement-wsj-says-2026-03-16/. This market will resolve to "Yes" if the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission votes to approve a rule or otherwise formally enacts a policy that removes the requirement for publicly traded companies to file quarterly earnings reports by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Narrow company or industry specific removals of quarterly earnings requirements will not qualify. Likewise a general removal of the rules which maintains the quarterly reporting requirement for specific companies will qualify. Any approving vote on a rule change that reduces the requirement to report earnings from quarterly to a less frequent cadence will qualify. The primary resolution source will be official information from the SEC; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.The SEC's May 2026 proposal to introduce optional semiannual reporting via a new Form 10-S—rather than mandating an end to quarterly 10-Q filings—remains the dominant factor holding the "No" outcome at an 82% market-implied probability. As of late August 2026, the rule is still in the proposal stage following a July 6 comment deadline, with no final Commission vote, adoption, or implementation. Exchanges have not yet adjusted listing rules to accommodate the change, and the framework preserves companies' ability to continue quarterly disclosures voluntarily. This measured approach, focused on reducing compliance costs while preserving flexibility for investors, aligns with trader consensus that a full removal of the longstanding quarterly requirement is unlikely without broader legislative or regulatory shifts. Upcoming catalysts include any post-comment revisions or FOMC-adjacent policy signals that could influence the SEC's timeline.
