excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.

The company slowly but surely became well-established in both Memphis and Tennessee during the 1900s, and eventually shifted its name to First Horizon National Corporation in 2004. In 2020, the company merged with Iberiabank, with the resulting entity keeping the First Horizon name.
