DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc. (NASDAQ:XRAY) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial ConditionItem 2.02. – Results of Operations and Financial Condition
The following information is furnished to Item 2.02, "Results of Operations and Financial Condition."
On March1, 2018, the Company issued a press release disclosing its fourth quarter sales and earnings. This earnings release references net sales, excluding precious metal content, and net income, adjusted for certain charges, both of which are considered measures not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (non-US GAAP measures). Due to the fluctuations of precious metal prices and because the precious metal content of the Company's sales is largely a pass-through to customers and has minimal effect on earnings, the Company reports sales both with and without precious metal content to show the Company's performance independent of precious metal price volatility and to enhance comparability of performance between periods. Earnings from operations, adjusted for certain charges, are presented to enhance the comparability between periods. A copy of the Company's press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
