About the Webcast: On May 5, 2026, the SEC proposed amendments that would allow public companies to elect to file semiannual reports on new Form 10-S, rather than filing quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Our panel of SEC experts will discuss the SEC's proposed rule changes and explore the practical implications of a shift to semiannual reporting for issuers, auditors, underwriters and the markets.
