Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The Company reported its fourth quarter fiscal year 2018 results today and is furnishing the earnings release as Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto.  Members of the public are invited to listen to the Company's webcast conference call on March 21, 2018, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time through the link at ir.steelcase.com.  A replay of the webcast can also be accessed through the Company's website.

The earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures.  A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the Company.  Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation within the earnings release of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The non-GAAP financial measures used within the Company's earnings release are:

• Organic revenue growth (decline), which represents the change in revenue excluding currency translation effects and the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures;
• Adjusted operating income (loss), which represents operating income (loss), excluding restructuring costs (benefits); and
• Adjusted earnings per share, which represents earnings per share, excluding restructuring costs (benefits) and the related income tax effect and charges relating to U.S. tax reform.

These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends.  Therefore, management believes this information is also useful for investors.

The information furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibit hereto) shall not be considered “filed” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into future filings by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, unless the Company expressly sets forth in such future filing that such information is to be considered “filed” or incorporated by reference therein.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

The Company has updated its investor presentation and will make it available on the Company's website at ir.steelcase.com.  The Company uses this presentation from time to time when Company executives interact with investors and analysts to discuss our business strategies and long-term goals.
