fiscal quarter
Three-month period
A fiscal quarter is one of four three-month periods that divide a company's or government's financial year.
Organizations report earnings, file taxes, and measure performance by quarters: The company exceeded expectations in the third fiscal quarter.
Fiscal quarters don't necessarily align with calendar quarters—a fiscal year starting in July makes July through September the first quarter.
