Details of freely available sources of company annual reports are on the Websites section of the Business and Management Library Guide.

You may find the annual report for the most recent year on company websites. Look for the Investors or Corporate webpage.

For reports not found via the company website, you may be able to find annual and interim reports in some of the financial databases, listed on the Data and Statistics Library Guide:

  • FAME
    FAME gives access to data on all UK and Irish companies. When you've opened a company report look for the Original document section - one way to access this is by going to Financials the Key Financials and Employees.  The top row for each year is a link to the Original document
     
  • Bloomberg 
    For public companies. Load the function DS CF (Document Search Company Filings) then select Annual Reports from the Filing filter menu then type the name of a company into the Securities/Lists box, and select it from the Securities results that appear. A list of Annual report results will appear at the bottom of the screen.
     
  • Refinitiv Workspace 
    For public companies
     
  • Fitch Connect 
    For banks and other financial institutions
