"A[n SEC} reporting company also has record keeping requirements, must implement internal accounting controls and is subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including the CEO/CFO certifications requirements, prohibition on officer and director loans, and independent auditor requirements. Under the CEO/CFO certification requirement, the CEO and CFO must personally certify the content of the reports filed with the SEC and the procedures established by the issuer to report disclosures and prepare financial statements."

P&L's don't divulge specific confidentialities. They don't tell what any individual person or company made, lost or agreed to. They simply state project "A" made or lost this much money after these expenses were deducted.
American Greed is chocked full of cherubic business personalities having a massive party & lifestyle at the expense of the investors but there was a huge price to pay for it.
