PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

From time to time, in written reports and oral statements, we discuss our expectations regarding future performance. Forward-looking statements are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data, current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the industries in which we operate and management’s beliefs and assumptions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. We want to caution you to not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Among the factors that might affect our performance are: economic, political and market conditions; changes in the level of trading activity, price levels and volatility in the derivatives markets and in underlying fixed income, equity, foreign exchange and commodities markets; changes in domestic and foreign regulations; changes in government policy, including interest rate policy and policies relating to common or directed clearing; industry and customer consolidation; seasonality of the futures business; our ability to adjust our fixed costs and expenses if our revenues decline; our ability to efficiently and simultaneously operate both open outcry trading and electronic trade execution facilities; our ability to keep pace with rapid technological developments; our ability to accommodate increases in trading volume without failure or degradation of performance of our trading systems; increasing competition by foreign and domestic competitors, including new entrants into our markets; our ability to successfully implement our competitive initiatives; our ability to continue introducing competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis, including through our electronic trading capabilities, and our ability to maintain the competitiveness of our existing products and services; decreases in member trading and clearing activity; our ability to manage the risks and control the costs associated with our acquisition, investment and alliance strategy; the ability of our joint venture, OneChicago, LLC, to obtain market acceptance of its products and achieve sufficient trading volume to operate profitably; the costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights and our ability to operate our business without violating the intellectual property rights of others; and the continued availability of financial resources in the amounts and on the terms required to support our future business. For a detailed discussion of these and other factors that might affect our performance, see Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
