On April 1, the Company, as part of ongoing initiatives to drive simplification, accelerate growth, better reflect its organizational and operational structure and align with the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker assesses performance and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources following portfolio simplification actions, realigned its organizational structure into three reporting segments (Americas, EMEA and APAC) from four reporting segments (Global Products, Building Solutions North America, Building Solutions EMEALA and Building Solutions APAC). The Company will begin reporting under this segment structure when it reports its quarterly results for the fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2025. The Company will provide more detail regarding the segment reporting changes during its upcoming fiscal second quarter earnings presentation. The Company intends to provide recast unaudited historical financial information reflecting the new segment structure in advance of its second quarter earnings presentation for informational purposes and to assist investors in making comparisons of the Company's historical financial information with financial information to be made available in future periods.
