Also means
to bring in (results)
Usage Note
Reportar is used in Latin America to mean 'to report' (news, findings), where Spain more commonly uses informar. It also means to yield or bring in a result (la inversión reportó beneficios — the investment brought in profits). Another false-friend trap: English 'to report' a crime is denunciar, not reportar.
Examples
"El periodista reportó los hechos con precisión."
