Item 8.01 Other Events.
Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) to update certain financial information in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2013 filed on February 20, 2014 (“Form 10-K”). The update pertains to the realignment of certain segment net sales and segment profit from the Construction and Do-It-Yourself ("CDIY") segment to the Industrial segment to align the reporting with the current management of the Company’s operations in the emerging markets to be comparable with the current year presentation. Accordingly, segment net sales and segment profit have been recast between the CDIY and Industrial segments. Additionally, the associated goodwill of each segment was adjusted to reflect the change. There is no impact to the consolidated financial statements of the Company as a result of this segment realignment.
This Form 8-K presents disclosures updated from the Company’s originally filed Form 10-K to reflect the realignment of segment net sales and segment profit for all periods presented. The updates to the Form 10-K, as set forth in this Form 8-K, for this realignment are consistent with the presentation in the Company’s quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for each quarterly period in the current fiscal year. The sections of the Form 10-K affected by these changes are Items 7 and 8.
We have not updated or enhanced any other disclosures presented in our Form 10-K. All other information not affected by the segment realignment is presented as of the original filing date and has not been updated in this Form 8-K. Without limitation of the foregoing, this Form 8-K does not purport to update the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Form 10-K with respect to any uncertainties, transactions, risks, events or trends occurring, or known to management. More current information is included in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K and the Company’s other filings. Other filings may contain important information regarding uncertainties, trends, risks, events, transactions, developments and updates to certain expectations of the Company that may have been reported since the filing of the Form 10-K.
