Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed, effective with the first quarter of 2011 (which began December 26, 2010), Tupperware Brands Corporation (“the Company”) has modified its segment reporting to more clearly reflect the geographic distribution of its businesses. Consequently, the Company no longer has a Beauty Other segment, and the businesses that had been reported in that segment are now reported as indicated: Tupperware Brands Philippines in Asia Pacific; the Company's Central America businesses in Tupperware North America; the Nutrimetics businesses in Europe and Asia Pacific, in those segments as applicable; and the businesses in South America in a separate geographic segment.
The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to revise certain sections within its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2010 ("2010 Form 10-K"), to give retroactive effect to the change in reportable segments. All other information in the 2010 Form 10-K remains unchanged. The revisions to the 2010 Form 10-K to reflect the change in reportable segments are within the discussion and presentation of the Company's operating results, financial position, and cash flows by reportable segment in Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 16 within Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
The change in reportable segments had no impact on the Company's historical consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not reclassify nor restate the Company's previously reported consolidated financial statements for any period, and all other information in the 2010 Form 10-K remains unchanged, including Notes 1 through 15 and 17 through 18 to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
This Form 8-K does not reflect events or developments that occurred after February 22, 2011, nor does it modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the effect of the change in the Company's reportable segments described above. More current information is contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 2, 2011 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information in this Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the 2010 Form 10-K, the Form 10-Q for the period ended April 2, 2011, and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to February 22, 2011. Revisions to the 2010 Form 10-K included in this Form 8-K, as noted above, supersede the corresponding portions of the Company's 2010 Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2011.
