Section 8 – Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events.

In connection with a realignment of the organizational structure of CIT Group Inc. (the “Company” or “CIT”) into three operating segments that was effective January 1, 2014, the Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and attaching as an exhibit the financial data package of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 and as of and for the quarters ended March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 in each of 2013 and 2012, which have been recast in accordance with the new segments. The Company previously announced the changes to the organizational structure in a Form 8-K filed December 3, 2013. The financial data package, as recast, is attached as Exhibit 99.1. Exhibit 99.1 includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included as a table to Exhibit 99.1. The information furnished under this Item 8.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall be considered filed for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Management has (i) realigned and simplified its businesses and organizational structure, (ii) streamlined and consolidated certain business processes to achieve greater operating efficiencies, and (iii) leveraged CIT’s operational capabilities for the benefit of its clients and customers. Effective January 1, 2014, the Company is managing its business and will report its financial results in three operating segments (the “New Segments”):

The Company’s 4^th quarter 2013 and full year 2013 financial results were previously reported based on CIT’s previous five operating segments:

The Company’s New Segments were established based on how CIT’s business units are being managed prospectively and how products and services are provided to clients and customers by each business unit.

These planned changes became effective as of January 1, 2014, and, beginning with CIT’s reporting of results for the first quarter of 2014, all segment financial information will be reflected on this basis, including the presentation of historical financial results. The change in segment reporting will have no effect on CIT’s historical consolidated results of operations.

Section 9 – Financial Statements and Exhibits

Item 9.01.   Financial Statements and Exhibits.

Forward-Looking Statements

     This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All forward-looking statements (including statements regarding future financial and operating results) involve risks, uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond CIT's control, which may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance, or achievements. All statements contained in this document that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking, and the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Economic, business, funding market, competitive and/or regulatory factors, among others, affecting CIT's businesses are examples of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. More detailed information about these factors are described in CIT's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. CIT is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
