Use FinRunbook to prepare a comparable financial dataset for [COMPANIES] over [PERIODS], as of [CUTOFF]. Use primary filings where available. Deliver the original extracted observations, a cleaned CSV, a metric dictionary, an exceptions list and an interactive before/after explanation.

Retain issuer, business scope, fiscal period start/end, duration, units, reported/adjusted basis, source passage and original value for every observation. Normalize money to USD millions only where the source currency is USD; do not silently perform FX conversion. Preserve original cash-flow signs and separately label any positive-outflow capex presentation. Derive a quarter from year-to-date values only for compatible cumulative measures with matching scope and definitions; reconcile to directly disclosed quarterly values where possible. Do not subtract ratios, EPS or balance-sheet stocks. Retain inequalities, disclosure gaps and definition changes. Do not substitute parent or broader-segment figures for missing business metrics. Identify comparisons that remain invalid after formatting. Show formulas and unresolved exceptions.

Run FinRunbook's evidence, financial, editorial and validation workflow. Distinguish mechanical consistency checks from source-content review. Do not claim measured time savings without a timed comparison.

This is an adapted prompt for a new research run. The gallery's worked cases reuse observations already extracted in the saved Cloud and Lululemon reports; they were not generated by a fresh run of this exact prompt or a generic PDF-cleaning tool.
