Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

On September 17, 2019, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Pure Storage, Inc. ("Pure") approved a change in the fiscal year end from a year ending on January 31 to a fiscal year calendar typically consisting of four 13-week quarters, with the change to be effective for Pure's fourth quarter beginning on November 1, 2019 and ending on February 2, 2020. Pure's 2021 fiscal year will be comprised of four fiscal quarters ending on May 3, 2020, August 2, 2020, November 1, 2020 and January 31, 2021, respectively. The updated calendar will occasionally include a 14-week fourth quarter, which will first occur in fiscal year 2022, starting on November 1, 2021 and ending on February 6, 2022. Pure is making the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and will not adjust operating results for prior periods.

Since the change in Pure's fiscal year end is from the last day of the month to a fiscal year commencing within seven days of the old fiscal year end, the change is not deemed a change in fiscal year for purposes of reporting subject to Rule 13a-10 or 15d-10. Accordingly, a transition report is not required to be filed.
