African company fundamentals

Helps Africa-mandate PE funds and frontier research desks screen and benchmark African listed companies by providing point-in-time, provenance-documented fundamentals so they can underwrite positions without building an extraction team.

Income-statement, balance-sheet and per-share line items, extracted from published annual reports, normalized to actual units and reporting currency, and keyed to the exact period as reported.

Use-case menu

What buyers do with AF-FUND.

Frontier screening

An analyst filters revenue, profitability and leverage across the covered universe in one query instead of 40 PDF reads. Output: API / Parquet. Value: days → minutes.

Benchmarking

Research desks compare issuers on as-reported, point-in-time figures — no restatement bleed, no unit guessing. Output: CSV / API. Value: defensible comparisons.

Agent grounding

Retrieval and agent pipelines answer with values they can cite — every fact carries source_ref back to the filing page. Output: API / MCP. Value: answers that survive review.

Deepening issuer by issuer.

Longest history (Safaricom PLC, FY2009–FY2026); FY2020 is not yet extracted, so the longest unbroken run is 11 years

Coverage is expanding issuer-by-issuer. The numbers above reflect the current published gold build; live figures are always available from the /v1/quality-metrics/af-fund API endpoint and the get_quality_metrics MCP tool.
