Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

In March 2017, Trimble Inc. (the “Company”) effected a change in its financial reporting segments to better align with the Company’s customer base and end markets. Over time, the Company has experienced significant growth both organically and through strategic business acquisitions. Trimble’s strategy has been to address attractive markets with significant growth and profit potential, including an increased focus on software and service offerings, international expansion, vertically-focused distribution channels and optimization of our domain knowledge to provide innovative technological solutions to a more diverse customer base. Trimble’s focus on these growth drivers has led over time to growth in revenue and profitability as well as an increasingly diversified business model. As a result of the Company’s evolution, Trimble’s chief operating decision maker (its Chief Executive Officer) changed the information he regularly reviews to allocate resources and assess performance. Beginning with the first fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company will report its financial performance, including revenues and operating income, based on four new reportable segments – Buildings and Infrastructure, Geospatial, Resources and Utilities and Transportation.

See Exhibit 99.1 for more details about the new segment structure and Exhibit 99.2 for a recast of historical quarterly financial results by segment under the new structure.

We are furnishing this Form 8-K to provide a description of our new reporting structure and present summary financial information and historical data on a basis consistent with the new structure. Beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2017, our financial statements will reflect the new reporting structure with prior periods adjusted accordingly.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
