ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
On February 7, 2011, FMC Corporation issued a press release announcing the financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
As noted in this press release, starting with our outlook for 2011, we will exclude from earnings before restructuring and other income and charges the impacts of the amortization of gains and losses on our accumulated benefit obligations and return on assets of our defined benefit pension plans and other post-employment benefits. We are making this change as we believe that removing the impact of the amortizations from this measure provides a better understanding of the underlying profitability of our businesses and provides better period-over-period comparability. Attached as Exhibit 99.2 is a schedule presenting our restructuring and other income and charges for the last four quarters of 2010, full year 2010 and full year 2009 adjusted for these items.
