Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On March 2, 2017, Superior Industries International, Inc. (“Superior”) issued a press release announcing the results of operations for the fourth quarter and year ended December 25, 2016 and reaffirmed Superior’s outlook for fiscal year 2017 (the “Press Release”). A copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference. Following the issuance of the Press Release, Superior hosted an earnings call in which its financial results and outlook were discussed. The investor presentation materials used for such call are furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information contained in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and can generally be identified by the use of future dates or words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “expects,” “seeks to,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “intends,” “predicts,” “projects,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. These statements also include, but are not limited to, the 2017 outlook, and Superior’s strategic and operational initiatives, and are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections about Superior’s business based, in part, on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, risks and uncertainties discussed in the Superior’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including Superior’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 27, 2015, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports from time to time filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward looking statements when evaluating the information presented in this report. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and Superior does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report.
