Find which quarter a date falls in
Frequently Asked Questions
Calendar quarters are: Q1 (Jan 1 - Mar 31), Q2 (Apr 1 - Jun 30), Q3 (Jul 1 - Sep 30), and Q4 (Oct 1 - Dec 31).
A fiscal quarter is a three-month period based on a company's fiscal year, which may not align with calendar quarters. Q1 starts with the first month of the fiscal year.
Public companies are required to file quarterly financial reports (10-Q in the US) to provide investors with regular updates on financial performance and business operations.
The US federal fiscal year starts October 1, so Q1 is October through December, Q2 is January through March, Q3 is April through June, and Q4 is July through September.
