Frequently Asked Questions
You’ll receive an email with instructions how to install the add-in and how to retrieve financial data.
The limits specific to your plan will be specified in the email. Once you hit those limits you are welcome to wait for a new subscription cycle or to upgrade your plan.
For all paid plans, you start on a free 14 day trial of the plan. You get all functionality applicable for your plan from the beginning, so you have two weeks to decide if the plan works for you.
You will receive the Excel Add-in, account details and the installation guide in less than 24 hours.
A data point is each piece of financial information that you request and extract into your Excel spreadsheet using the functions built in the add-in. For example, "Revenue", "Net Profit","Gross Profit" etc. Each request for a data point gets counted towards your plan limit, even if you requested the same data point at a previous time during the same month. That is because we do not keep track of the data points you query.
Every time when you save your Excel spreadsheet, all functions that are in that spreadsheet will be refreshed (i.e. the latest values for the data points will be requested again from the database) and they will be counted towards your plan limit. We suggest that you keep a separate spreadsheet where you perform the data querying and another file where you work on your model.
All plans come with a number of functions that help you retrieve the data points in a consistent manner, no matter how they were reported to SEC by the company. For example, GetRevenue will return the total amount of revenue reported by the company, for the financial year and financial period selected, no matter how it was labelled by the company (e.g. "Revenue", "Revenues", "Sales", "Sales Volume" etc.)
A list of available functions and ratios is included in the 'Installation and Use Guide' that will be emailed to you with the add-in.
All paid plans (Basic, Plus and Pro) come with 18 financial ratios that help you fast track your analysis. For example GrossProfitMargin, ReturnOnAssets, ReturnOnEquity, Cash Ratio and many others.
A list of available functions and ratios is included in the 'Installation and Use Guide' that will be emailed to you with the add-in.
The paid plans include a generic function that you can use to get any of the millions of financial statements line items reported by companies to SEC in US during the past 10 years. The data points will be returned as reported by the company, without any standardisation of the output.
This is extremely powerful when you want to do more complex or more detailed financial analysis where you need very specific data points. However, it requires you to know the name of the fields that you want to extract, from the GAAP taxonomy. We can provide a list of the 250 most often queried U.S. financial statements fields. Please contact us and enquire.
At this stage the add-in is only available for Windows installations, and it works with any Excel version from 2007 onwards.
All plans, including the free Trial one, come with free technical support.
Troubleshooting advice is provided in the documentation and we are always here to help. Email us to info@lensell.online with a description of the problem (include screenshots if you have) and we will get back to you in 2 business days.
Plus and Pro plans have priority technical support (1 business day).
Certainly, you can cancel your subscription anytime by contacting us at info@lensell.online.
If you have not used any of your plan's data points allowance during the month, the full fees paid in advance will be refunded. If you have used some of the data points, the refund will be prorated accordingly.
