Trimble’s name change and change in legal domicile became effective October 1, 2016.
The reincorporation was previously approved by shareholders at Trimble’s 2016 Annual Meeting. Stock certificates previously issued for shares in Trimble Navigation Limited, the California corporation, automatically represent shares in Trimble Inc., the Delaware corporation, and stockholders are not required to exchange stock certificates as a result of the reincorporation.
According to the company, the reincorporation will have no material impact on Trimble management, employees, or customers. The corporate headquarters will remain in California.
