Many databases include historical financial data for companies; however, the number of years they cover varies. Some databases that used to provide a decade’s worth of revenue, income, and other data now only look back the last 3 to 5 years.

S&P NetAdvantage and ValueLine both include individual company PDF reports that you can then compare and contrast between firms. LSEG EIKON will let you overlay multiple firms to visualize trends, but requires a few advanced search strategies to do so.
Use these search tips to get started searching all three databases.
