style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to reflect certain retrospective revisions resulting from changes in our accounting principles for defined benefit pension and other post-employment benefit plans that have been made to the consolidated financial statements of Mead Johnson Nutrition Company (&#8220;Mead Johnson&#8221; or &#8220;the Company&#8221;) previously contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the &#8220;2013 Form 10-K&#8221;). </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">During the first quarter of 2014, the Company changed its accounting principles for the recognition of actuarial gains and losses for all of its defined benefit pension and other post-employment benefit plans and the calculation of expected return on pension plan assets.&#160; Historically, the Company recognized actuarial gains and losses as a component of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;">accumulated other comprehensive loss</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#32;in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized them into the Consolidated Statements of Earnings over the average future service period of the active employees of these plans to the extent such gains and losses were outside of a corridor.&#160; Starting in the first quarter of 2014, the Company elected to immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in its Consolidated Statements of Earnings on the basis that it is preferable to accelerate the recognition of such gains and losses into earnings rather than to delay them over time.&#160; Additionally, for purposes of calculating the expected return on pension plan assets, the Company previously used a calculated value for the market-related valuation of pension plan assets. With this change in accounting principle, the Company now uses the actual fair value of pension plan assets. These changes will improve transparency in operating results by immediately recognizing the effects of external conditions on plan obligations, investments and assumptions.&#160; </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Under these new accounting principles, actuarial gains and losses from these plans are recognized upon plan remeasurement in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if a remeasurement occurs. The remaining components of net periodic benefit cost, primarily interest on projected benefit obligation and the expected return on pension plan assets, continue to be recorded on a quarterly basis. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized within </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-style:italic;">Corporate and Other</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#32;and the remaining components of net periodic benefit costs are recognized in the respective reportable segments. This change in accounting principles has been reported through retrospective application of the new principles to all periods presented in Exhibit 99.1.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Mead Johnson has updated and revised the following items that were contained in the 2013 Form 10-K to reflect the retrospective revisions discussed above: </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Item 6.

Item 8.01: Other Events.
This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to reflect certain retrospective revisions resulting from changes in our accounting principles for defined benefit pension and other post-employment benefit plans that have been made to the consolidated financial statements of Mead Johnson Nutrition Company ("Mead Johnson" or "the Company") previously contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the "2013 Form 10-K").
During the first quarter of 2014, the Company changed its accounting principles for the recognition of actuarial gains and losses for all of its defined benefit pension and other post-employment benefit plans and the calculation of expected return on pension plan assets.  Historically, the Company recognized actuarial gains and losses as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive loss
in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized them into the Consolidated Statements of Earnings over the average future service period of the active employees of these plans to the extent such gains and losses were outside of a corridor.  Starting in the first quarter of 2014, the Company elected to immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in its Consolidated Statements of Earnings on the basis that it is preferable to accelerate the recognition of such gains and losses into earnings rather than to delay them over time.  Additionally, for purposes of calculating the expected return on pension plan assets, the Company previously used a calculated value for the market-related valuation of pension plan assets. With this change in accounting principle, the Company now uses the actual fair value of pension plan assets. These changes will improve transparency in operating results by immediately recognizing the effects of external conditions on plan obligations, investments and assumptions.
Under these new accounting principles, actuarial gains and losses from these plans are recognized upon plan remeasurement in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if a remeasurement occurs. The remaining components of net periodic benefit cost, primarily interest on projected benefit obligation and the expected return on pension plan assets, continue to be recorded on a quarterly basis. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized within
Corporate and Other
and the remaining components of net periodic benefit costs are recognized in the respective reportable segments. This change in accounting principles has been reported through retrospective application of the new principles to all periods presented in Exhibit 99.1.
Mead Johnson has updated and revised the following items that were contained in the 2013 Form 10-K to reflect the retrospective revisions discussed above:
Item 6. Selected Financial Data
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Item 8. Financial Statements
For Item 6, Item 7 and Item 8, revisions to the 2013 Form 10-K included in this Current Report on Form 8-K supersede the corresponding portions of the 2013 Form 10-K.  For Item 1 ("Business"), with regard to the Company's research and development expenses for fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the amounts disclosed in the 2013 Form 10-K agree to amounts on the Consolidated Statements of Earning as originally filed.  However, the amount of such research and development expenses have been superseded by the recast research and development expenses reported in the revised Item 8 of the 2013 Form 10-K included in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Other than as set forth above, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not modify or update the disclosures in the 2013 Form 10-K in any way, nor does it reflect any subsequent information or events, other than as required to reflect the changes described above. This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits, should be read in conjunction with the 2013 Form 10-K and Mead Johnson's subsequent SEC filings.
