The SEC has proposed a rule change to let public companies report financial results semiannually instead of quarterly, with comments due Monday. The agency says the optional move could reduce short-termism and compliance costs, while Commissioner Mark Uyeda emphasized that companies would still file Form 8-K for material events. The proposal has drawn roughly 37,000 submissions, with supporters highlighting flexibility and opponents warning that Main Street investors could get less timely information than institutions. Jason Moser of Motley Fool expects most companies would stick with quarterly reporting anyway, given Wall Street expectations and AI easing the burden.
