Korn Ferry Provides Advance Geographic Segment Recast for Fiscal 2026 Quarters

Korn Ferry (NYSE:KFY) disclosed in its September 15, 2026 Form 8-K that it has reorganized its reportable segments beginning in fiscal 2027, shifting from a solution-based presentation to a geographic model. The three new reportable segments are Americas, Europe Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific. Within these segments, the company said it delivers services through three Solutions Groups: Search, Talent and Organizational Solutions, and Workforce Solutions.

Because the recast financial information will not formally appear until the Form 10-Q filings for fiscal year 2027 quarters and the fiscal year 2027 Form 10-K, the company stated that "management is providing such recast segment historical information to investors in advance to enhance understanding of the operating performance of the Company's realigned segments." The recast covers each of the four quarters in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 and is further disaggregated by Solutions Group within each geographic segment.

The filing specifies that the recast "solely reflect changes in the Company's reportable segment information" and does not affect any previously reported GAAP consolidated figures, including net income, earnings per share, operating income, or total assets or liabilities. The information furnished under Item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 is explicitly noted as not "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, meaning it is not subject to the same liability provisions as formally filed disclosures.

What Was Disclosed

Korn Ferry voluntarily furnished recast unaudited fee revenue for its four fiscal 2026 quarters, reorganized under new geographic segments and Solutions Groups, with no changes to previously reported consolidated GAAP financial results.
