Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As discussed in the Business Section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2015, beginning January 1, 2015, the Company updated its segment reporting to better reflect the Company’s corporate strategy. The new reporting structure highlights performance of the Company through two segments:
| |
• | Americas (which consists of operations in the U.S., Canada and Latin America); and |
| |
• | Non Americas (which primarily consists of operations in the U.K., the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia, Greater China, India and our Worldwide Network). |
To illustrate the new reporting structure, today the Company is posting certain of its previously released financial information for each of the years ending December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014 in a format that reflects the new reporting structure on its Investor relations website - www.investor.dnb.com.
