ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS

Vornado Realty Trust (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to present retrospectively revised historical consolidated financial statements and other information for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 to:

· reclassify the financial results for those retail assets that were placed into discontinued operations which primarily consisted of the 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, and a warehouse park which were spun off to Urban Edge Properties (“UE”) on January 15, 2015 as well as certain other retail assets not included in the UE spin off but were determined to be part of the strategic shift in the Company’s business under the adoption of ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, in the first quarter of 2015;

· reclassify the former Retail Properties and Toys segments to Other, as the remaining assets and operations no longer meet the qualitative and quantitative thresholds under ASC 280, Segment Reporting;

· reclassify signage revenue from “fee and other income” to “property rentals” to conform to the presentation beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2015.

These reclassifications have no effect on the Company’s reported net income or funds from operations.

This Current Report on Form 8-K updates the following items in the 2014 Form 10-K to reflect retrospectively the changes discussed above for all periods presented:

· Part II, Item 6. Selected Financial Data
