What is the implication of the information being 'furnished' rather than 'filed'?

When information is 'furnished' under Regulation FD (Item 7.01), it means the company is making it available to the public, but it does not carry the same legal implications as 'filing' under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This generally means the company is not subject to liability for the information under that specific section.
