Item 2.02
Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 10, 2016, Black Box Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
Item 2.06
Material Impairments.
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 (“Fiscal 2016”) and in connection with its planning for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the Company conducted an interim goodwill assessment to determine whether such assets were recoverable as of December 26, 2015. Such assessment revealed that the carrying value of its North America Products and North America Services reporting units exceeded the fair value of its North America Products and North America Services reporting units thus the Company proceeded to the second step of the goodwill impairment assessment.
The Company, after consultation by Management with the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, recorded a non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment loss of $34.9 million, (consisting of $11.7 million and $23.2 million in its North America Products and North America Services reporting units, respectively) during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 as a result of its interim goodwill assessment conducted as of December 26, 2015. In determining the impairment loss, the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill was compared to the carrying amount of the goodwill. The implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill was determined as the residual between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its assets (including any unrecognized intangible assets) and liabilities as of the interim goodwill assessment date. The impairment charge did not impact the Company's business operations, compliance with debt covenants or future cash flows nor did it result in any cash expenditures.
The primary factors contributing to the goodwill impairment loss in both North America Products and North America Services were lower projected revenue and profit in Fiscal 2016 and the corresponding impact in periods beyond Fiscal 2016. North America Services revenues are lower relative to recent expectations due to a decrease in core commercial revenues, primarily in the business services industry and a decrease in government revenues as a result of project and task order funding delays partially offset by increases in a large managed services contract and our solutions practices. North America Services profits continue to be challenged by competitive pricing pressures and current period investments for the operations initiative and infrastructure which the Company believes will enable it to grow revenue and profits more efficiently beyond Fiscal 2016. North America Products revenues and profits are comparable year-over-year but less than expected due to lower than expected revenues from its core offerings.
Cautionary Forward-Looking Statements
When included in this Form 8-K, the words "expects," "believes" and "anticipates" and analogous expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Dividend Increase
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a 9% increase to its quarterly cash dividend resulting in a payout of $0.12 per share of its Common Stock.  The $0.12 per share dividend was declared on all outstanding shares of Black Box’s Common Stock and will be payable on July 16, 2016 to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 1, 2016. Black Box will pay the dividend through its transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219. This is the sixth consecutive year that the Company has increased its dividend.
New Credit Facility
The Company also announced that it has refinanced its senior credit facility with a new, five year, $200,000,000 senior secured credit facility with a group of lenders led by PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent.  This credit facility includes a provision to increase the commitments to $250,000,000. 
Commenting on the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 results, E.C. Sykes, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I am pleased to join Black Box and look forward to working with the team to improve the Company’s position in the market and its financial results. As can be seen from our 4Q16 results, our profitability and predictability remain challenged and this is getting immediate attention. While profitability was lower than target, the team was able to exceed our revenue target and produce strong cash flows. Our dividend and new credit facility are positive events. Our quarterly dividend is being raised 9% to $0.12. And our new credit facility will provide us the flexibility to address our cost structure over the coming quarters as we first look to stabilize the business and then to build a pattern of sustainable profitable revenue growth."
Mr. Sykes continued, "Over the past 2 ½ months, I have been listening to our customers, partners, and team members. I am personally excited by the opportunities that lie before us. This Company has the talent and market position to consistently deliver valuable, high quality network solutions. As we complete the transformational efforts that are in process, we will be in position to capitalize on those capabilities."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As a supplement to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides non-GAAP financial measures such as operating income before provision for income taxes ("EBIT"), operating net income, operating earnings per share ("EPS"), revenues excluding foreign currency, adjusted operating income, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Operating EBITDA and free cash flow to illustrate the Company's operational performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all of the Company's competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled measures of the Company's competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. However, each of the amounts included in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures are computed in accordance with GAAP. See below for reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate the Company's historical and prospective financial performance as well as its performance relative to its competitors, (b) to set internal sales targets and associated operating budgets, (c) to allocate resources and (d) to measure operational profitability. Management uses similar non-GAAP measures as an important factor in determining variable compensation for Management and its team members.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP financial measures. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Operating EBIT, operating net income and operating EPS
Management believes that operating EBIT, defined by the Company as net income (loss) plus provision (benefit) for income taxes and adjustments, operating net income, defined by the Company as operating EBIT less operational income taxes, and operating EPS, defined as operating net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding (diluted), provide investors additional important information to enable them to assess, in the way Management assesses, the Company's current and future operations. Adjustments include intangibles amortization, the change in fair value of the interest-rate swaps, goodwill and intangible asset impairment loss, Accounts receivable impairment loss (primarily due to a non-recurring write-down of Accounts receivable for one large project)), Inventory impairment loss (due to a non-recurring write-down to the lower of cost or market as a result of a product line discontinuation and excess inventory given current revenue levels), each of which are non-cash charges, and restructuring expense and CEO transition costs (non-recurring costs related to the transition of the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") position), each of which is a cash charge.
A reconciliation of Net income (loss) to operating EBIT and Operating net income is presented below:

EBITDA and Operating EBITDA
Management believes that EBITDA, defined as Net income (loss) plus provision (benefit) for income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization, is a widely-accepted measure of profitability that may be used to measure the Company's ability to service its debt. Operating EBITDA, defined as EBITDA plus stock compensation expense, Accounts Receivable impairment loss, Inventory impairment loss and Goodwill impairment loss may also be used to measure the Company's ability to service its debt.
A reconciliation of Net income (loss) to EBITDA and Operating EBITDA is presented below:
