| • | | Part II, Item 6. Selected Financial Data |
| • | | Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
| • | | Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data |
The disclosures filed as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, 99.3 and 99.4 replace the corresponding portions of the 2017Form 10-K. This Current Report does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date of the 2017 Form10-K, and does not amend, restate, modify or update in any way the disclosures made in the 2017 Form10-K other than as required to retrospectively reflect the change in segment reporting and the adoption of the ASUs as described above. All other information in the 2017 Form10-K remains unchanged. Without limitation of the foregoing, this filing does not purport to update Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for any information, uncertainties, risks, events or trends occurring or known to management subsequent to the date of filing of the 2017 Form10-K. Unaffected items and unaffected portions of the 2017 Form10-K have not been repeated in, and are not amended or modified by, this Current Report or Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, 99.3 or 99.4.
