Adaption AutoScientist — SEC Financial Arithmetic (109B LoRA)

Powered by Adaptive Data — Adaption Labs

🎯 Core Problem Solved

Given a financial table from an SEC filing (10-K, 10-Q, earnings report), this model extracts the correct numeric values, identifies the right formula, executes multi-step arithmetic, and produces a verified numeric answer — never hallucinating numbers.

Specifically, this model performs:

1. Table-Grounded Variable Extraction — "Given this SEC filing table with 20+ rows and 5+ columns, identify exactly which cells contain the values needed for this calculation"
2. Multi-Step Financial Arithmetic — "Compute the year-over-year revenue growth rate by extracting 2021 and 2022 revenue, then applying: ((2022 - 2021) / 2021) × 100"
3. Formula-Verified Calculations — "Every answer is cross-checked against a gold reasoning program (e.g., subtract(8.5, 7.2) → divide(#0, 7.2) → multiply(#1, 100)) to ensure mathematical correctness"
4. Compound Financial Metrics — "Compute LTI payout percentages, operating margins, debt-to-equity ratios, and other multi-variable derived values from dense financial context"

Why This Matters

Financial analysts extract numbers from dense corporate filings to compute key metrics. Current LLMs:

• Hallucinate numbers that aren't in the table
• Skip intermediate steps (jumping to a final answer without showing work)
• Apply wrong formulas (e.g., computing growth rate with the wrong denominator)

This model is trained on real SEC filing data with gold reasoning programs that verify every arithmetic step, teaching it to show complete <think> traces before outputting a verified <answer>.

Model Details

AutoScientist Platform Integration

The model was adapted using the automated training features of the Adaption Labs AutoScientist platform:

• Adaptive Data Pipeline: Validated the financial dataset structure, maintaining a stable Grade B (8.9 score) across multi-step calculation patterns.
• Prompt Deduplication: Removed redundant financial questions, focusing training on unique computation flows.
• Prompt Rephrase Constraint: Prompt rephrasing was disabled to protect the integrity of financial tables, column headers, and tabular structures from corruption.
• Reasoning Traces & Blueprint Constraints: Enforced structured arithmetic thinking. The model is trained to show complete working in a <think> trace verified against gold calculation programs before outputting the final answer. The blueprint constraints mandate:
  1. Extracting the exact cell coordinates and values from the input SEC table.
  2. Stating the mathematical formula explicitly.
  3. Executing arithmetic steps sequentially.
  4. Outputting a clear, verified final numeric value.
• Hyperparameter Optimization: Managed the training run using LoRA SFT targeting the attention and feed-forward layers of meta-llama/Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E-Instruct.
• Evaluation: Compared the adapted model performance against the base model on held-out financial prompts using automated preference scoring.
