Forward-Looking Statements
The Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” or other similar words. These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward-looking information. CatchMark’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although CatchMark believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, its actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. You should be aware that there are various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in the Press Release. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic and business conditions in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and Texas where CatchMark’s timberlands are located, changes in timber prices and the impact on CatchMark’s revenues, net income and Adjusted EBITDA, limitations on CatchMark’s ability to harvest timber, changes in the supply of timberlands available for acquisition that meet CatchMark’s investment criteria, CatchMark’s ability to complete land sales, CatchMark’s ability to access external sources of capital and the impact that potential increases in interest rates could have on the CatchMark’s business, and industry trends. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Furthermore, except as required by law, CatchMark is under no duty to, and does not intend to, update any of our forward-looking statements after this date, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
