Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On July 29, 2009, Symantec Corporation (the “Company”) furnished certain modifications to the historical revenue
information of its operating segments, as described below. The modified revenue information by segment is furnished
as Exhibit 99.01 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the company modified its segment reporting structure to more readily match
its operating structure. The following modifications were made to the segment reporting structure: Enterprise Vault
products were moved to the Storage and Server Management segment from the Security and Compliance segment; and the
Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) offerings were moved to either the Security and Compliance or the Storage and Server
Management segment from the Services segment based on the nature of the service delivered. Fiscal year 2009 Enterprise Vault revenue of $197 million and fiscal year 2008 revenue of $168 million was moved, and fiscal year 2009 SaaS revenue of $51 million was moved. The predominant amount of SaaS revenue went to the Security and Compliance segment. The historical
periods have been adjusted to reflect the modified reporting structure. There were no changes to the Consumer or Other segments.
The information in this Current Report, including the exhibit hereto, shall not be deemed to be
“filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise
subject to the liabilities of that section or Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. The information contained herein and in the accompanying exhibit shall not be
incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof,
regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set
forth by specific reference in such filing.
