Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On February 11, 2016, Diebold, Incorporated (the "Company") furnished a current report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission that included an unaudited earnings release issued that same day reporting results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2015, which was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 thereto (the "Earnings Release"). For the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Earnings Release reported: (a) net sales from service of $358.3 million; (b) gross profit of $176.6 million; (c) operating profit of $30.2 million; (d) income tax benefit of $2.9 million; (e) income from continuing operations, net of tax, of $34.8 million; (f) net income attributable to Diebold of $35.7 million; (g) basic earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.51; and (h) diluted earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.50. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Earnings Release reported: (a) net sales from service of $1,399.2 million; (b) gross profit of $657.0 million; (c) operating profit of $63.6 million; (d) income tax benefit of $11.8 million; (e) income from continuing operations, net of tax, of $62.6 million; (f) net income attributable to Diebold of $76.8 million; (g) basic earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.94; and (h) diluted earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.93.
Subsequent to the issuance of the Earnings Release, the Company determined that certain adjustments were required as a result of transitioning from our existing multiple legacy systems to a new enterprise resource planning system in North America. As a result of these adjustments, the Company reduced its service net sales by $5.0 million, increased its tax benefit by $1.9 million and reduced its net income by $3.1 million for the three-months and year ended December 31, 2015. Accordingly, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the "10-K"), for the three months December 31, 2015, the Company will report: (a) net sales from service of $353.3 million; (b) gross profit of $171.6 million; (c) operating profit of $25.2 million; (d) income tax benefit of $4.8 million; (e) income from continuing operations, net of tax, of $31.7 million; (f) net income attributable to Diebold of $32.6 million; (g) basic earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.46; and (h) diluted earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.46. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the 10-K will report: (a) net sales from service of $1,394.2 million; (b) gross profit of $652.0 million; (c) operating profit of $58.6 million; (d) income tax benefit of $13.7 million; (e) income from continuing operations, net of tax, of $59.5 million; (f) net income attributable to Diebold of $73.7 million; (g) basic earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.89; and (h) diluted earnings per share before discontinued operations, net of tax, of $0.88. These adjustments did not impact our net cash provided by operating activities.
This information shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
