Summary
Williams Companies, Inc. (WMB) filed a Form 8-K on April 22, 2003, to provide updated pro forma financial information. This filing supplements the previously issued consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, by presenting two key business segments as discontinued operations: the Texas Gas pipeline system and the Williams Energy Partners segment. This reclassification aims to offer investors a clearer view of the company's ongoing business by separating the financial performance of these divested or soon-to-be-divested assets. Investors should review this pro forma information to better understand the operational and financial trajectory of WMB's core, continuing businesses, as it removes the impact of these specific segments from the overall consolidated results.
