CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Our
disclosure and analysis in this Current Report on Form 8-K contains some
forward-looking statements. Certain of the matters discussed concerning our
operations, cash flows, financial position, economic performance and financial
condition, and the effect of economic conditions include forward-looking
statements.
Statements
that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or
conditions or that include words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends,"
"plans," "believes," "estimates" and similar expressions are forward-looking
statements. Although we believe that these statements are based upon reasonable
assumptions, including projections of orders, sales, operating margins,
earnings, cash flow, research and development costs, working capital, capital
expenditures and other projections, they are subject to several risks and
uncertainties.
Investors
are cautioned that our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and the actual results or developments may differ materially from
the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements.
As for
the forward-looking statements that relate to future financial results and other
projections, actual results will be different due to the inherent uncertainty of
estimates, forecasts and projections may be better or worse than projected.
Given these uncertainties, you should not place any reliance on these
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements also represent our
estimates and assumptions only as of the date that they were made. We expressly
disclaim a duty to provide updates to these forward-looking statements, and the
estimates and assumptions associated with them, after the date of this filing to
reflect events or changes in circumstances or changes in expectations or the
occurrence of anticipated events. You are advised, however, to consult any
additional disclosures we make in our reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K,
or their successors.
