Item 8.01. Other Events.
Carlisle Companies Incorporated (the "Company") is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Form 8-K") to update the historical financial information and certain related disclosures included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Form 10-K") to reflect the presentation of Carlisle Brake & Friction ("CBF") as discontinued operations. This update is consistent with the presentation of continuing and discontinued operations included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on July 27, 2021 (the “Q2 2021 Form 10-Q”).
As previously disclosed in the Company's Q2 2021 Form 10-Q, on May 25, 2021, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to sell CBF to certain direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of BRWS Parent LLC, a portfolio company of One Rock Capital Partners (“CentroMotion”), for gross proceeds of (i) $250 million cash at closing, subject to certain adjustments, and (ii) the right to receive up to an additional $125 million based on CBF's achievement of certain performance targets. As disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 2, 2021, the Company completed the sale of CBF to CentroMotion. Accordingly, the Company has reported the results of CBF as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and presented the assets and liabilities of CBF as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented. This Form 8-K will permit the Company to incorporate the recast financial statements by reference, or otherwise, in future SEC filings. The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K is not an amendment to the 2020 Form 10-K or a restatement of the financial statements included therein.
The Company has recast the following portions of the 2020 Form 10-K to reflect the presentation of CBF as discontinued operations retrospectively:
•Part I. Item 1. Business
•Part I. Item 2. Properties
•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
No items in the 2020 Form 10-K other than those identified above are being updated by this filing. Information in the 2020 Form 10-K is generally stated as of December 31, 2020, and this filing does not reflect any subsequent information or events other than the discontinued operations presentation noted above. Without limiting the foregoing, this filing does not purport to update Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the 2020 Form 10-K for any information, uncertainties, transactions, risks, events or trends occurring, or known to management, other than the events described above. More current information is contained in the Company’s Q2 2021 Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC. This filing should be read in conjunction with the 2020 Form 10-K, the Q2 2021 Form 10-Q and the other documents the Company has filed with the SEC subsequent to February 11, 2021 (the “Other Documents”). The Q2 2021 Form 10-Q and the Other Documents contain information regarding events, developments and updates to certain expectations of the Company that have occurred since the filing of the 2020 Form 10-K.
