Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously reported, Flowserve Corporation (the “Company”) is a defendant in a class action
lawsuit filed in federal court in the Northern District of Texas (the “Court”) alleging violations
of federal securities laws. By order dated November 13, 2007, the Court has ruled in favor of the
Company and denied the plaintiffs’ motion to certify the case as a class action. It also granted
defendants’ summary judgment on claims brought against the Company and former officers under
Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and held other dispositive motions to be moot in
light of the Court’s rulings.
