Item 8.01 Other Events
On January 29, 2013, Starbucks Corporation (“Starbucks,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended December 30, 2012 (the "Q1'13 10-Q"). Our Q1'13 10-Q reflects the realignment of certain costs to our reportable segments. The impact to each segment reflects the decentralization of certain functions and the resulting realignment of those costs to each segment.
As previously announced, effective at the beginning of fiscal 2012, we implemented a strategic realignment of our organizational structure designed to accelerate our global growth strategy. As part of this realignment, we shifted to the following four reportable operating segments: Americas, EMEA, CAP and Channel Development.
We continue to evolve our operating model to improve local relevancy and efficiency of decision making so that we are able to better optimize market opportunities. To better facilitate decision-making at a local level, effective at the beginning of fiscal 2013, we decentralized certain leadership functions in the areas of retail marketing and category management, global store development and partner resources, to support and align with the respective operating segment presidents. In conjunction with these moves, certain general and administrative and depreciation and amortization expenses associated with these functions, which were previously reported as unallocated corporate expenses within "Other," are now reported within the respective reportable operating segments to align with the regions that they support. In order to conform prior period classifications with the new alignment, the historical consolidated financial statements have been recast as reflected in the segment results below. This change did not have an impact to our historical consolidated results.

Further, in June 2011, the FASB issued guidance that revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The guidance requires entities to report the components of comprehensive income in either a single, continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance became effective for us at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2013. In adopting this guidance, we added the consolidated statements of comprehensive income following our consolidated statements of earnings. To be consistent with our current presentation, we added the consolidated statements of comprehensive income following our consolidated statements of earnings for fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010 as part of our recast of the fiscal 2012 10-K.
We are filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to recast operating results for all periods covered in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012 (the "fiscal 2012 10-K"), filed on November 16, 2012, to reflect the aforementioned segment changes and to include the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The recasting of previously issued financial information above and in the exhibits attached hereto does not affect our reported net income, earnings per share, total assets, or stockholders’ equity for any of the previously reported periods.
The sections of the fiscal 2012 10-K most affected by the changes, as reflected in Exhibit 99.1 hereto, are as follows:
