Audit Fees

Avantis Audit Fees lets you view audit fees paid by any public company that has disclosed them in its filings. We extract this data, organize it into an easy-to-read table, and include important notes—such as when fees are split between multiple auditors or when details aren’t fully broken down—so you have the full context behind the numbers.

Follow the steps below to get the most out of this dataset.

Understanding Audit Fee Search Results

  • Audit Fees are displayed in a dedicated column, along with Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees, Other Fees, and Amalgamated Fees.

  • Amalgamated Fees contain amounts that are not itemized—e.g., if an issuer reports "Audit and Audit-Related Fees" as a combined total, that number is placed in this column.

  • Audit Note and Audit Note Type provide additional context where needed.

Audit Fee-Specific Criteria

Here’s a breakdown of key criteria available in this dataset:

  1. Audit Auditor – The auditor at the time of the audit (even if they have since changed). If different from Auditor, this means the company has switched auditors since the audit.

  2. Audit Fee – Fees paid for the audit.

  3. Related Fee – Audit-related fees.

  4. Tax Fee – Fees for tax-related services.

  5. Other Fee – Additional fees paid to the auditor.

  6. Amalgamated Fee – A combined total of any of the above categories when itemization isn’t provided.

  7. Report Date – Date of the auditor’s report.

  8. Audit Year End – The fiscal year-end corresponding to the reported fees.

  9. Audit Note – Free-text details about the audit or issuer.

  10. Audit Note Type – Categorized audit notes, such as Multiple Auditors, Multiple Year Ends, or Non-North American Currency.

  11. Audit City – The city where the audit was conducted (from the auditor’s report).

  12. Audit Province – The province/state where the audit was conducted.

  13. Audit Country – The country where the audit was conducted.

  14. Currency – The currency in which the audit fees were reported.
