Financials for previous dates

[Woods]

Hi all,

Google Finance allows users to get financials information for most companies: Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow. This data is available for recent quarters and recent years (4-5 last quarters, 3-5 last years).

I was wondering if it's possible by any means to get this information for previous quarters and previous years. Let's say I want the Q1-2013 balance sheet of Apple (AAPL), or their 2004 annual income statement. Is there any way to retreive this information on Google Finance? Is there any way to tweak the URL to get those years? Otherwise, is there any other website that offers this information as well displayed as available from Google? I need the format and the tables to be consistent for all companies.

Cheers!

AdvFN has a lot of data, but you'd have to scrape it from web pages:

If you get a membership:

-- GuruFocus has CSV and XLS files with 30 years of annual or quarterly financials

-- Morningstar has CSV files with 10 annual and TTM (only 5 + TTM for non-members)
