Hi,

Hope you are doing great! I want to grab the "Research & Development" of "DDOG" in the income statement quarterly (9/30/2020). The Yahoo Finance website (https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DDOG/financials?p=DDOG) shows 56400. Yet, Page Source (view-source:https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DDOG/financials?p=DDOG) shows 56022, which is the value I got by your function.

Then I noticed that there are few values on the Yahoo Finance website that are different from the values in the Page Source. Do you have any idea about this issue? I would appreciate your answer.

Thank you! Best regards, Samuel
