Frequently Asked Questions

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to officially announce and provide access to Citigroup's financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. It serves as a notification that the company has released its earnings information through other documents.

The actual financial results are contained within the press release filed as Exhibit 99.1 and the Quarterly Financial Data Supplement filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this 8-K report. Investors should review these exhibits for detailed financial information.

When a document is 'incorporated by reference,' it means that the SEC filing (the 8-K in this case) legally treats the content of the referenced document (the press release) as if it were physically part of the 8-K itself. This makes the information in the press release subject to the same disclosure rules and liabilities as the 8-K.

The Quarterly Financial Data Supplement is described as 'furnished' and not 'filed' because it may contain information that is not strictly required by SEC rules for formal filing but is provided for investor convenience. Furnished information is generally not subject to the same liability provisions as 'filed' information under Section 18 of the Exchange Act.
