ITEM 8.01 Other Events
Pentair plc (“Pentair”) is revising its historical financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 Form 10-K”) to reflect revisions to its reporting segments that were made in the first quarter of 2015. The revisions to the historical financial statements do not impact previously reported consolidated operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Pentair plc or earnings (loss) per ordinary share attributable to Pentair plc.
As previously disclosed in the 2014 Form 10-K, subsequent to year-end Pentair reorganized its business segments to reflect a new operating structure and management of its Global Business Units, resulting in a change to its reporting segments. As of the first quarter of 2015, Pentair's reporting segments are as follows: Valves & Controls, Flow & Filtration Solutions, Water Quality Systems and Technical Solutions.
This Current Report on Form 8-K updates the following items in the 2014 Form 10-K to reflect the change in reporting segments described above:

• | 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

All other information from the 2014 Form 10-K remains unchanged and has not been updated. The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to Pentair should be read in conjunction with the 2014 Form 10-K, and the subsequent quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 28, 2015.
