Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
In the first quarter of 2024, Trimble Inc. (the “Company”) effected a change in its financial reporting segments to reflect its revised organizational structure and joint venture transaction with AGCO Corporation. The new structure brings similar businesses together, which is expected to enhance our ability to achieve scale and growth consistent with our strategy. Beginning with the first quarter of 2024, our reporting segments, and the results of those segments, will be reorganized to reflect how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) assesses performance and allocates resources. The three new reportable segments are – Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Owners Software (AECO), Field Systems, and Transportation and Logistics.
See Exhibit 99.1 for more details about the new segment structure and Exhibit 99.2 for a recast of historical quarterly financial results by segment under the new structure.
We are furnishing this Form 8-K to provide a description of our new reporting structure and present summary financial information and historical data on a basis consistent with the new structure. Beginning with the quarter ending March 29, 2024, our financial statements will reflect the new reporting structure with prior periods adjusted accordingly.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibit, is furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information in this current report on Form 8-K shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this Current Report, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1
Trimble Announces New Reporting Segments
WESTMINSTER, Colo., Apr 12, 2024—Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today that it will change the reporting of its segment financial results to better reflect the Company’s organizational structure and business models. Starting with first quarter 2024 results, Trimble will report revenue and operating income based on three operating segments as follows:
Architects, Engineers, Construction and Owners (“AECO”). This segment primarily provides software solutions, which sell through a direct channel to customers in the construction industry.
Field Systems. This segment primarily includes hardware-centric businesses, which sell through dealer partner channels.
Transportation and Logistics (“T&L”). This segment will primarily maintain the historical businesses from the previous Transportation segment, which serves customers working in long haul trucking and freight shipper markets.
Financial segment information for the four quarters and the full year for fiscal years 2023 and 2022, as if reported under the new structure, will be available in an 8-K filed today and is posted in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s web site at: http://investor.trimble.com. Also available at http://investor.trimble.com will be pre-recorded prepared remarks and an accompanying slide presentation on the new reporting segments. The new segment financial results for 2022 and 2023 include the Company’s agriculture business, which was contributed to its joint venture with AGCO, which closed on April 1, 2024.
