Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On August 18, 2017, Foot Locker, Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2017. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The press release includes a non-GAAP financial measure for second quarter 2017 net income excluding a charge related to pension litigation. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial result provides useful information to investors because it allows for a more direct comparison of the Company’s operating performance for the second quarter of 2017 to the Company’s performance in the comparable prior-year period. The non-GAAP financial result is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to GAAP is provided in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, 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 liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
