Item 8.01.
Other Events.
As disclosed in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, on January 28, 2013 PPG Industries, Inc. (“PPG”) completed the separation of its commodity chemicals business and merger of the subsidiary holding the commodity chemicals business with a subsidiary of Georgia Gulf Corporation. The combined company formed by uniting Georgia Gulf with PPG's former commodity chemicals business is named Axiall Corporation (“Axiall”). PPG holds no ownership interest in Axiall. PPG concluded that the accounting requirements for reporting the results of operations and cash flows of its former commodity chemicals business as discontinued operations were met when its separation and merger was completed. As such, PPG has recast its previously filed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes to exclude the results of the commodity chemicals business from both continuing operations and segment results for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.
Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K provides a recast Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) and Exhibit 99.2 provides recast Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes, each of which has been recast to reflect the results of the commodity chemicals business as discontinued operations. Exhibit 23 provides the consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP.
The information included in this Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with PPG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013.
