Item 8.01. OTHER EVENTS

 

Bank of America Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) reports the results of its operations through three business segments: Global Consumer and Small Business Banking, Global Corporate and Investment Banking, and Global Wealth and Investment Management, with the remaining operations recorded in All Other. Effective January 1, 2007, consistent with the presentation used in the Corporation’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Corporation changed its basis of presentation to present Global Consumer and Small Business Banking, specifically Card Services, on a managed basis with a corresponding offset recorded in All Other. Also, the financial results of certain businesses that are expected to be or have been sold have been transferred to All Other. In addition, certain management accounting methodologies and related allocations were refined. Prior period segment results have been adjusted to reflect these changes. These changes did not have an impact on the previously reported consolidated results of the Corporation.

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto update the business segment information presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the Annual Report) only to the extent this information is impacted by the revised business segment reporting methodology. Portions of the following items from the Annual Report have been updated to reflect the revised business segment methodology:

 

  >

Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (filed as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference).

  >

Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data (filed as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference).

All updates to the Annual Report relate solely to the presentation of segment specific disclosures on a basis consistent with how management currently evaluates the results of the segments. The revised reporting structure did not impact the consolidated balance sheet or the consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows. The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K is presented as of December 31, 2006 and other than as indicated above, has not been updated to reflect financial results subsequent to that date or any other changes since the date of the Annual Report.
