Delpha trusted sources for Ultimate Parent

Delpha identifies each company’s Ultimate Parent by automatically analyzing trusted sources like websites, registries, filings, and press releases with LLM.

Sources of Truth for Ultimate Parent Recommendation

Delpha determines the Ultimate Parent of a company by cross-checking multiple trusted and verifiable sources.

All these sources are automatically analyzed by specialized LLMs , which interpret and consolidate the information to produce a reliable recommendation.

Below, the list of sources sorted by order of importance

1. Company Website

The official company website is the main reference to identify ownership relationships and group structures.

2. Official Business Registries

Delpha continuously collects and analyzes data from national and regional company registries. These registries provide verified legal relationships such as parent-subsidiary links and ownership hierarchies.

3. Securities and Stock-Exchange Filings

For publicly listed entities, regulatory filings (e.g., 10-K, annual reports, prospectuses) are used to confirm corporate control and ownership information declared to investors and authorities.

4. Government Gazettes and Legal Publications

Official gazettes are monitored for legal events such as mergers, acquisitions, dissolutions, and reorganizations that may affect corporate structure.

5. Investor Relations and Press Releases

Validated announcements from investor relations pages or corporate press releases help confirm recent structural changes or acquisitions when registry data is not yet updated.

Delpha analyzes all the sources above, to reflect how companies operate in the real world, not who legally owns them. This approach allows Delpha to accurately represent franchise and multi-brand networks, where multiple legal entities operate under a single brand identity, ensuring the Ultimate Parent recommendation aligns with sales, marketing, and go-to-market realities rather than pure legal ownership.
