Explanatory Paragraph
On February 24, 2015, Forest City Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) filed, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), its Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Report”). As disclosed in the Report, the Company had one equity method investment that met the conditions of a significant subsidiary under Rule 1-0 (w) of Regulation S-X as of December 31, 2013.
Amendment No. 1 to the Report is being filed solely to include the separate financial statements of FC HCN University Park, LLC ("University Park"), as provided in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto. University Park's continuing operations met the conditions of a significant subsidiary of the Company as a result of allocated income from University Park exceeding 20% of the Company's pre-tax loss from continuing operations, as adjusted for the University Park income. In connection with the filing of this Amendment No. 1 to the Report and pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the currently dated certifications of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company are attached as exhibits hereto.
Item 15 is the only portion of the Report being supplemented or amended by this Form 10-K/A. Except as described above, this Form 10-K/A does not amend, update or change the financial statements or any other items or disclosures contained in the Report and does not otherwise reflect events occurring after the original filing date of the Report. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Report.
