Where can I find the actual financial results for BNY Mellon's third quarter of 2014?

The actual financial results are detailed in the Earnings Release (Exhibit 99.1) and Quarterly Financial Trends (Exhibit 99.2) which were furnished with this 8-K filing on October 17, 2014. These documents, along with Key Facts (Exhibit 99.3) and a Financial Highlights presentation (Exhibit 99.4), are available on BNY Mellon's website.

Is the information in this 8-K considered 'filed' with the SEC?

No, the specific financial information, including the Earnings Release and other related documents (Exhibits 99.1-99.4), are 'furnished' to the SEC as per General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K. This means they are not considered 'filed' for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not subject to its liabilities, though they are publicly available.

What is the significance of the 'furnished' status for these documents?

The 'furnished' status indicates that BNY Mellon is providing this information to the public and the SEC for transparency but is not accepting the full legal liability associated with 'filed' documents under Section 18 of the Exchange Act. This is a common practice for earnings releases and similar disclosures.

Does this 8-K filing contain any new or surprising financial information?

This 8-K filing itself primarily serves as a notification and a pointer to the detailed financial results and presentations released on October 17, 2014. The actual financial performance details and any significant disclosures would be found within the furnished exhibits (99.1-99.4), not within the text of the 8-K itself.
