Market Atlas (formerly Mergent Online) is used to track publicly held companies based in the U.S. and internationally. It allows you to delve into company reports, financial information, company history, and detailed structural information. It also includes tools for economic research and industry analysis.
Market Atlas has a comprehensive help page with step-by-step instructions and screenshots that guide users on how to locate various types of information. Use the buttons at the top to navigate to the section for which you need help.
Build a list of companies by selecting from the criteria listed on the homepage. Select an SIC or NAICS code to limit to a specific industry, select a country of incorporation, and use the number of employees or minimum revenue to define the size of companies to include in your list. Once you have your list, use the Output Option button to select the information you would like to export into a spreadsheet.
Select the Industry and then Membership tabs to find a list of companies within an industry sector or subsector (for example, Airlines is a subsector of the Travel & Leisure sector). From the Summary Data drop-down menu, choose Select Membership Report to display the type of comparison data (i.e., price performance, profitability, or debt ratios) for each company listed.
Market Atlas is great for researching public companies. If you’re researching a private company, use Mergent Intellect.
