Caution Concerning
Forward-Looking Statements
2
Copyright ©
2011 CDI Corp. All rights reserved.
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.  All statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including, but not
limited to, statements about our strategies for growth and future financial results (such as revenues, cost savings
and operating profit margins), are forward-looking statements. Some of the forward-looking statements can be
identified by words like “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “intends,” “plans,”
“estimates” and similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a
number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Because these forward-looking
statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change, actual outcomes and
results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to: weakness in general economic conditions and levels of capital spending by customers in the
industries we serve; weakness in the financial and capital markets, which may result in the postponement or
cancellation of our customers’ capital projects or the inability of our customers to pay our fees; the inability to
successfully implement our new strategic plan; the termination or non-renewal of a major customer contract or
project; our ability to maintain or expand our existing bank credit facility on satisfactory terms; credit risks
associated with our customers; competitive market pressures; the availability and cost of qualified personnel; our
level of success in attracting, training and retaining qualified management personnel and other staff employees;
changes in tax laws and other government regulations; the possibility of incurring liability for our activities,
including the activities of the our temporary employees; our performance on customer contracts; negative
outcome of pending and future claims and litigation; and government policies, legislation or judicial decisions
adverse to our businesses.  More detailed information about these and other risks and uncertainties may be
found in our filings with the SEC, particularly in the "Risk Factors" section of our Form 10-K and the
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section of our Form
10-K's and Form 10-Q's. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update such statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
