Moody's Analytics supplements

We seasonally adjust GDP and its components at current prices, using the U.S. Census Bureau's X-13ARIMA-SEATS program.

Gross capital formation was not initially reported, but we were able to construct it via additive identity. As of 2022Q4 (April 2023) it was reported, retroactive to 2020Q1, so we back-extended to 1995Q1.

Yes. The source publishes three estimates for each quarter. The first estimate is usually published two months after the end of the reference period (e.g.: in mid-May for Q1). The second and final estimates are released in the following two consecutive months (e.g.: mid-June and mid-July for Q1).
