Value Investing Accounting Basics With NotebookLM: Episode 9
Description
In this episode of The Green Value Investor, we tackle a critical issue in financial reporting: how inconsistencies and manipulative practices can skew a company’s true financial picture. We dive into how companies often underreport liabilities like operating leases or non-physical capital expenses and manipulate earnings by excluding non-cash items like stock-based compensation. You’ll hear why understanding that financial statements are more ‘opinions’ than facts is essential, and how you, as an investor, need to adjust for these discrepancies to uncover the true health of a company.
