Meritage Homes CORP

US GAAP has no one “total revenue” tag that every filer uses. A bank reports interest and dividend income separately from non-interest income; closed-end funds, blank-cheque companies and some property trusts report the same way; and a company that has not sold anything yet — a drug developer still in trials, for instance — files no revenue at all. Adding two differently defined income lines together would produce a number that appears in no filing, so we publish a revenue figure only where the filing tags one annual, US-dollar revenue fact we can point at. A blank here means no such tag, not that we failed to look.

Headcount comes from Yahoo Finance, not from a filing. The date beside it is the day we retrieved the figure — it is not the date the company counted its staff, and Yahoo does not publish that date. Unlike the SEC filings behind the other figures on this page, this one carries no open licence, so we publish the number and nothing else from that source.

Everyone below has filed at least one insider report against this company.

Value is that share count priced at the same closing price used everywhere else on this site. A row priced from only some of a person’s securities says so — we do not quietly present a partial sum as a complete one.

The role comes from the relationship boxes a person ticks on their own insider filings — officer, director, ten per cent owner — not from anything we infer. Somebody who is both an officer and a director appears once, in the combined group, so the row count still matches the figure at the top of this page. Where no filing states a role we say so instead of guessing one.

The rest — awards, shares withheld to pay tax, option exercises, gifts and so on — follow from an employment contract or a transfer arranged off-market, not from a decision to buy or sell, so counting them would turn this into a pay table.

A price of 0.00 is a real reported figure on gifts (G) and share awards (A) — not a gap in our data.

The report an officer, director or large shareholder must file after trading their own company’s stock.
