When information is 'furnished' in an 8-K, it means the company is providing it to the SEC for public disclosure, but it is generally not subject to the same liabilities as 'filed' information under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This is a common practice for earnings releases and related materials to ensure timely disclosure without triggering certain regulatory implications.
