Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 4, 2015, Axalta Coating Systems Ltd. (“Axalta”) issued a press release and posted an earnings call presentation to its website reporting its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015. Copies of the press release and the earnings call presentation are furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference. The information furnished with this Item 2.02, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
In the press release, the earnings call presentation and the conference call to discuss its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, scheduled to be webcast at 8:00 A.M. on August 4, 2015, Axalta presents, and will present, certain non-GAAP financial measures. Axalta management believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful information to investors in understanding operating results and may enhance investors’ ability to analyze financial and business trends. In addition, Axalta management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to compare period to period more easily by excluding items that could have a disproportionately negative or positive impact on results in any particular period. Non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures and should be considered together with the GAAP financial measures. As calculated, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
