HiFi-KPI: A Dataset for Hierarchical KPI Extraction from Earnings Filings

Accurate tagging of earnings reports can yield significant short-term returns for stakeholders. The machine-readable inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL) is mandated for public financial filings. Yet, its complex, fine-grained taxonomy limits the cross-company transferability of tagged Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). To address this, we introduce the Hierarchical Financial Key Performance Indicator (HiFi-KPI) dataset, a large-scale corpus of 1.65M paragraphs and 198k unique, hierarchically organized labels linked to iXBRL taxonomies. HiFi-KPI supports multiple tasks and we evaluate three: KPI classification, KPI extraction, and structured KPI extraction. For rapid evaluation, we also release HiFi-KPI-Lite, a manually curated 8K paragraph subset. Baselines on HiFi-KPI-Lite show that encoder-based models achieve over 0.906 macro-F1 on classification, while Large Language Models (LLMs) reach 0.440 F1 on structured extraction. Finally, a qualitative analysis reveals that extraction errors primarily relate to dates. We open-source all code and data at https://github.com/aaunlp/HiFi-KPI.
