Searches made in the Audit Analytics Auditor Opinion Database may now be filtered by the filing status of the SEC registrant. Simply click on the drop-down menu labeled "Filer Status" and select either Large Accelerated Filer, Accelerated Filer, Non-Accelerated Filer or Smaller Reporting Company. Narrowing the search results in this way allows you to more easily delineate populations of registrants by size and type, providing more useful analysis for marketing and research purposes.

Audit Analytics has released analysis which examines the filing status of audit firms' clients. Registrants are divided into 5 categories: Large Accelerated Filers, Accelerated Filers, Non-accelerated Filers, Smaller Reporting Companies and Other (including publicly traded funds and trusts). These categories are then further divided by auditor to provide a comprehensive view of the entire filing population of over 10,500 registrants.

Some key findings include:

• Combined, the Big 4 auditors audit more than 95% of the Large Accelerated Filers.
• The top six global accounting firms (Ernst & Young, Deloitte & Touche, PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG, Grant Thornton and BDO Seidman) audit 75% of the Accelerated Filers - not including Large Accelerated Filers.
• The Big 4 auditors audit only about 6% of the Smaller Reporting Companies and under 45% of Non-accelerated filers.
• The population used for this research comprises 10,587 registrants and approximately 588 audit firms.
