Summary

Phase 4.5b shipped via PR #93. Production verified on run #48 (commit 849b7ca8, workflow 2h08m due to cold-cache populating both new edgar_amendments + edgar_late_filings dirs; warm runs return to ~1h30m).

What shipped

Flag Lookback Production fire Notes
restatement_history 5y 10-K/A + 10-Q/A 60 / 502 (12.0%) within expected 6-16% — AMD, DIS, CVX, BSX, EBAY (mostly mature firms with periodic amendments)
late_filing_notification 365d Form 12b-25 2 / 502 (0.4%) HAS + Q — slightly under expected 1-4% (S&P 500 more compliant than broader Bartov-Lai-Yeung sample)

End-state defense layer

  • Active vetoes: 7 (unchanged — 4.5b is annotate-only)
  • Annotate flags: 5 → 7 (+ restatement_history, late_filing_notification)
  • Reason taxonomy: 29 → 31
  • Defense layer 9 → 13 layers after 4.5a + 4.5b (target 18 after 4.5f)

No schema delta — both flags are strings in existing valuation_warnings: list[str].

Triple-doc lockstep

File Change
CLAUDE.md "Next deliverable" 4.5b → 4.5c. Defense layer "9 → 11" → "9 → 13". 4.5b results summary appended.
PHASE_STATUS.md Phase 4.5 row updated with 4.5b production stats. §4.5b header flipped to ✅ DONE with tickers + workflow time note.
WORKFLOW.md §4.5b checkboxes [ ] → [x] with PR-number / LOC / test-count / production-verification citations. SEC Filing Roadmap: 4 new rows (10-K/A, 10-Q/A, NT 10-K, NT 10-Q) all ✅ active with PR #93 / fire-rate footnotes. Form 4 status ❌ not used⬜ planned (Phase 4.5e).

Next deliverable

Phase 4.5c — Real Earnings Management (Roychowdhury 2006 REM):

  • 3 abnormal proxies (abnormal_CFO + abnormal_production + abnormal_discretionary_expenses) modelled per sector-industry quintile
  • Flag rem_suspect fires when 2 of 3 in worst decile within sector
  • ~250 LOC + golden tests against paper Table 6, ~10 days
  • Catches REAL manipulation (cutting R&D, channel stuffing, deferring maintenance) — invisible to Sloan/Beneish/Dechow which target accrual manipulation

Test plan

  • No code changes; docs only
  • grep "Next deliverable.*4.5b" returns 0 hits
  • grep "9 → 13" appears in CLAUDE.md
  • 4 new ✅ active rows in WORKFLOW.md SEC Filing Roadmap

Phase 4.5b disclosure-driven catches shipped via PR #93. Production
verified on run #48 (commit `849b7ca8`, workflow 2h08m due to
cold-cache populating both new `edgar_amendments` +
`edgar_late_filings` dirs; warm runs return to ~1h30m).

## What shipped

| Flag | Lookback | Production fire | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `restatement_history` | 5y 10-K/A + 10-Q/A | **60 / 502 (12.0%)** | within expected 6-16% — AMD, DIS, CVX, BSX, EBAY etc. (mostly mature firms with periodic amendments) |
| `late_filing_notification` | 365d Form 12b-25 | **2 / 502 (0.4%)** | HAS + Q — slightly under expected 1-4% (S&P 500 firms tend to be more compliant than broader Bartov-Lai-Yeung sample) |

## End-state defense layer

- Active vetoes: **7** (unchanged — 4.5b is annotate-only)
- Annotate flags: 5 → **7** (+ `restatement_history`,
  `late_filing_notification`)
- Reason taxonomy: 29 → **31**
- **Defense layer 9 → 13 layers after 4.5a + 4.5b**

No schema delta — both new flags are strings in existing
`valuation_warnings: list[str]`. `SCHEMA_VERSION` stays
`0.7.1-phase4g`.

## Triple-doc lockstep changes

| File | Change |
|---|---|
| `CLAUDE.md` | "Next deliverable" reframed from 4.5b to 4.5c (Roychowdhury REM). Defense layer count "9 → 11 after 4.5a" → "9 → 13 after 4.5a + 4.5b". 4.5b results summary appended. |
| `PHASE_STATUS.md` | Phase 4.5 table row updated with 4.5b results + tickers + 60/2 counts. §4.5b header flipped to ✅ DONE 2026-05-16 with results table + workflow time note (cold-cache 2h08m). Original plan text preserved below for audit. |
| `WORKFLOW.md` | §Tasks §4.5b — all 4 checkboxes [ ] → [x] with PR-number + LOC + test-count + production-verification citations. SEC Filing Roadmap table: 4 new rows for 10-K/A, 10-Q/A, NT 10-K, NT 10-Q (all ✅ active with PR #93 / 2026-05-16 production-fire-rate footnotes). Form 4 status flipped from "❌ not used" to "⬜ planned (Phase 4.5e)" to reflect the upcoming sub-PR. |

## Next deliverable

**Phase 4.5c — Real Earnings Management (Roychowdhury 2006 REM)**:
- 3 abnormal proxies per ticker:
  - `abnormal_CFO` = actual − model(Sales, ΔSales)
  - `abnormal_production` = actual − model(Sales, ΔSales, ΔSales_t−1)
  - `abnormal_discretionary_expenses` = actual − model(Sales_t−1)
- Flag `rem_suspect` fires when 2 of 3 proxies sit in worst decile
  within sector
- ~250 LOC + golden tests against Roychowdhury 2006 paper Table 6
- Catches REAL manipulation (cutting R&D, channel stuffing,
  deferring maintenance) — invisible to Sloan/Beneish/Dechow which
  target accrual manipulation

## Audit trail (post-v1.0 doc PRs)

| PR | Purpose |
|---|---|
| #81 | 4g ✅ DONE |
| #86 | Phase 4.5 roadmap added |
| #87 | "PR 4b next" → "§3 polish next" (was wrong) |
| #88 | "§3 polish next" → "Phase-5 blocked" (was wrong) |
| #92 | 4.5a wave ✅ DONE |
| **this PR** | 4.5b wave ✅ DONE |

## Verification

- No code changes; docs only
- `grep "Next deliverable.*4.5b"` returns 0 hits (all moved to 4.5c)
- `grep "9 → 13"` appears in CLAUDE.md (new defense layer count)
- `grep "10-K/A.*✅ active"` returns the new WORKFLOW.md filing-roadmap row
