2. You are trying to value a subject company that has a September 1 fiscal year end. Today is May 9, 2019 and you are gathering all information TODAY to generate forecasts that will be used as valuation model inputs. Assume the subject company publishes its 10-K’s exactly 6 weeks after the fiscal year end and 10-Q’s exactly 2 weeks after the period end. How many quarters of activity must you forecast when estimating the annual net income that will be reported on the next published 10-K?
a. 1
b. 2
c. 3

Hence, we are required to make projections for 2 quarters of activity in order to estimate the Annual Net Income
Hence, correct answer is Option b = 2
