Belden Inc. (NYSE:BDC) Files An 8-K Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events

Belden Inc. (Belden, the Company, us, we, or our) is filing this
Current Report on Form 8-K to recast certain prior period amounts
to conform with the segment reporting changes made in the quarter
ended April 2, 2017 in connection with the formation of the new
Network Solutions segment, with respect to the financial
information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2016.
In the first quarter, we formed a new segment called Network
Solutions to leverage the Companys strengths in networking, IoT,
and cybersecurity technologies. This new segment represents the
combination of the former Industrial IT and Network Security
segments. The formation is a natural evolution in our organic and
inorganic strategies for a range of industrial and non-industrial
applications. As a result of this change, the Company now has
four reportable segments: Broadcast Solutions, Enterprise
Solutions, Industrial Solutions, and Network Solutions.
The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require that
when a registrant prepares, on or after the date a registrant
reports an accounting change such as the change noted above, a
new registration, proxy or information statement (or amends a
previously filed registration, proxy, or information statement)
that includes or incorporates by reference financial statements,
the registrant must recast the prior period financial statements
included or incorporated by reference in the registration, proxy
or information statement to reflect this type of change.
Accordingly, the Company is filing this Form 8-K to recast our
consolidated financial statements for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2016, to reflect the change in
segment reporting as described above. The updates do not
represent a restatement of previously issued financial
statements. The recast information of Items contained in the
Companys 2016 Form 10-K is presented in Exhibits 99.1, 99.2,
99.3, and 99.4 to this Form 8-K.
The information included in this Form 8-K is presented for
informational purposes only in connection with the reporting
changes described above and does not amend or restate our audited
consolidated financial statements, which were included in our
2016 Form 10-K. This Form 8-K does not reflect events occurring
after we filed our 2016 Form 10-K and does not modify or update
the disclosures herein in any way, other than to illustrate the
realignment of our organizational structure as described above.
For significant developments which have occurred subsequent to
the filing of the 2016 Form 10-K, refer to our Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 2, 2017.
