• Once you are in the LexisNexis® Database, select “Advanced Options” under the red search box.

• Then, under Content Type, deselect all but Company Profile.

• Now, type “Hoover Company and Industry Reports” within the Source box, and then click “Apply”.

• On the next screen, type the company name you want to search in the red search box, and the search to retrieve all of the results.

• From there, you will see a list of items to explore; just click on the one that matches your specific need.

• Also, if you want to narrow further, click on an item from the “Multiple Groups” section on the left.
