We provide a new extension of Pitt's theorem for compact operators between quasi-Banach lattices, which permits to describe unconditional bases of finite direct sums of Banach spaces \mathbbX1⊕…⊕\mathbbXn as direct sums of unconditional bases of its summands. The general splitting principle we obtain yields, in particular, that if each \mathbbXi has a unique unconditional basis (up to equivalence and permutation), then \mathbbX1⊕ ⋯⊕\mathbbXn has a unique unconditional basis too. Among the novel applications of our techniques to the structure of Banach and quasi-Banach spaces we have that the space ℓ2⊕ T(2) has a unique unconditional basis.
