What is a CIK number?

A CIK (Central Index Key) is the unique, permanent identifier the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission assigns to every filer — companies, funds, and individuals — in its EDGAR system. Unlike a stock ticker, a CIK never changes: even if OLD DOMINION FREIGHT LINE, INC. changed its ticker or name, its CIK (0000878927) would stay the same.

That stability is why the CIK is the most reliable way to pull a company's filings programmatically. Every 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, and Form 4 for OLD DOMINION FREIGHT LINE, INC. is indexed under CIK 0000878927.
