<p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: left;">As previously reported, on October 20, 2017, H.B. Fuller Company (&ldquo;H.B. Fuller&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) completed the acquisition (the &ldquo;Royal Adhesives Acquisition&rdquo;) of Royal Adhesives &amp; Sealants LLC (&ldquo;Royal Adhesives&rdquo;).<font style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;">&nbsp; During the first quarter ended March 3, 2018, H.B. Fuller implemented certain changes to its organizational structure related to the integration of the operations of Royal Adhesives with the Company&rsquo;s other businesses. This integration resulted in the elimination of one of the Company&rsquo;s operating segments for financial reporting purposes. In the Company&rsquo;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 2, 2017, the Company&#39;s business was reported in the following six operating segments: Americas Adhesives; Europe, India, Middle East and Africa (EIMEA); Asia Pacific; Construction Products; Engineering Adhesives; and Royal Adhesives. As of the beginning of the quarter ended March 3, 2018, the Company modified its operating segment structure by including portions of the business of Royal Adhesives into each of H.B. Fuller&rsquo;s previous operating segments.&nbsp; As a result, H.B. Fuller currently has the following five operating segments: Americas Adhesives; EIMEA; Asia Pacific; Construction Products; and Engineering Adhesives. &nbsp;</font></p>

The Company&rsquo;s new segment structure has no impact on the Company&rsquo;s consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of total equity and consolidated statements of cash flows previously reported on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles (&ldquo;GAAP&rdquo;).&nbsp;</font></p>

Item 8.01.
Other Events.
As previously reported, on October 20, 2017, H.B. Fuller Company ("H.B. Fuller" or the "Company") completed the acquisition (the "Royal Adhesives Acquisition") of Royal Adhesives & Sealants LLC ("Royal Adhesives").
During the first quarter ended March 3, 2018, H.B. Fuller implemented certain changes to its organizational structure related to the integration of the operations of Royal Adhesives with the Company's other businesses. This integration resulted in the elimination of one of the Company's operating segments for financial reporting purposes. In the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 2, 2017, the Company's business was reported in the following six operating segments: Americas Adhesives; Europe, India, Middle East and Africa (EIMEA); Asia Pacific; Construction Products; Engineering Adhesives; and Royal Adhesives. As of the beginning of the quarter ended March 3, 2018, the Company modified its operating segment structure by including portions of the business of Royal Adhesives into each of H.B. Fuller's previous operating segments.  As a result, H.B. Fuller currently has the following five operating segments: Americas Adhesives; EIMEA; Asia Pacific; Construction Products; and Engineering Adhesives.
The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide pro forma historical segment information in accordance with the Company
's new operating segment structure. Exhibit 99.1 hereto provides financial information for the first quarter ended March 4, 2017, the second quarter ended June 3, 2017, the third quarter ended September 2, 2017 and the fourth quarter ended December 2, 2017 for the Company by segment on a pro forma consolidated basis as if Royal Adhesives had been acquired at the beginning of the year ended December 2, 2017.  The changes in the segment structure reflect the manner in which the Royal Adhesives businesses have been integrated into the Company's historical operating segments. The Company's new segment structure has no impact on the Company's consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of total equity and consolidated statements of cash flows previously reported on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
