Item 8.01 Other Events.
     Lennox International Inc. (the “Company”) operates in four reportable business segments of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration markets: Residential Heating & Cooling, Commercial Heating & Cooling, Service Experts and Refrigeration. The Company’s management uses segment profit (loss) as the primary measure of profitability to evaluate operating performance and to allocate capital resources.
     In the third quarter of 2006, the Company changed its definition of segment profit (loss) to include realized gains (losses) on settled futures contracts. Realized gains (losses) on settled futures contracts are a component of (gains), losses and other expenses, net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result of this change, the Company now defines segment profit (loss) as a segment’s income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding (gains), losses and other expenses, net, restructuring charge, interest expense, net and other (income) expense, net less (plus) realized gains (losses) on settled futures contracts.
     Net sales and segment profit (loss) by business segment, along with a reconciliation of segment profit (loss) to net earnings (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 and for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 have been restated to reflect the change to the Company’s definition of segment profit (loss) and are shown below (in millions):
