print(r.json())What is PRES14C?
EDGAR describes PRES14C as preliminary information statements for a special meeting. Like DEFS14A on the proxy side, it separated special meeting information statements from regular ones until the special variants were retired in 2002.
Today the same filings appear as PRE 14C, or PREM14C for mergers and acquisitions.
Companies sending a Regulation 14C information statement for a special action, before 2002.
At least 10 calendar days before the definitive information statement was sent.
