Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Words or phrases such as,
"may," "should," "expects," "could," "intends," "plans," "anticipates,"
"estimates," "believes," "forecasts," "predicts" or other similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which
include, without limitation, earnings forecasts, statements relating to
our business strategy and statements of expectations, beliefs, future
plans and strategies and anticipated developments concerning our
industry, business, operations and financial performance and condition.
The forward-looking statements included in this news release are based
on our current expectations, projections, estimates and assumptions.
These statements are only predictions, not guarantees. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and
uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and
uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from what is
forecast in such forward-looking statements, and include, without
limitation, the following: a portion of our bookings may not lead to
completed sales, and our ability to convert bookings into revenues at
acceptable profit margins; changes in global economic conditions and the
potential for unexpected cancellations or delays of customer orders in
our reported backlog; our dependence on our customers’ ability to make
required capital investment and maintenance expenditures; risks
associated with cost overruns on fixed-fee projects and in taking
customer orders for large complex custom engineered products; the
substantial dependence of our sales on the success of the oil and gas,
chemical, power generation and water management industries; the adverse
impact of volatile raw materials prices on our products and operating
margins; economic, political and other risks associated with our
international operations, including military actions or trade embargoes
that could affect customer markets, particularly North African, Russian
and Middle Eastern markets and global oil and gas producers, and
non-compliance with U.S. export/re-export control, foreign corrupt
practice laws, economic sanctions and import laws and regulations;
increased aging and slower collection of receivables, particularly in
Latin America and other emerging markets; our exposure to fluctuations
in foreign currency exchange rates, including in hyperinflationary
countries such as Venezuela and Argentina; our furnishing of products
and services to nuclear power plant facilities and other critical
processes; potential adverse consequences resulting from litigation to
which we are a party, such as litigation involving asbestos-containing
material claims; a foreign government investigation regarding our
participation in the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program; expectations
regarding acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses; our
relative geographical profitability and its impact on our utilization of
deferred tax assets, including foreign tax credits; the potential
adverse impact of an impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or
other intangible assets; our dependence upon third-party suppliers whose
failure to perform timely could adversely affect our business
operations; the highly competitive nature of the markets in which we
operate; environmental compliance costs and liabilities; potential work
stoppages and other labor matters; access to public and private sources
of debt financing; our inability to protect our intellectual property in
the U.S., as well as in foreign countries; obligations under our defined
benefit pension plans; our internal control over financial reporting may
not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations,
including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or
overriding of controls, or fraud; the recording of increased deferred
tax asset valuation allowances in the future or the impact of tax law
changes on such deferred tax assets could affect our operating results;
if we are not able to successfully execute and realize the expected
financial benefits from our strategic realignment and other cost-savings
initiatives, our business could be adversely affected; ineffective
internal controls could impact the accuracy and timely reporting of our
business and financial results; and other factors described from time to
time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
All forward-looking statements included in this news release are based
on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management
believes that non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain
non-recurring items present additional useful comparisons between
current results and results in prior operating periods, providing
investors with a clearer view of the underlying trends of the business.
Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making
financial, operating, planning and compensation decisions and in
evaluating the Company's performance. Throughout our materials we refer
to non-GAAP measures as “Adjusted.” Non-GAAP financial measures, which
may be inconsistent with similarly captioned measures presented by other
companies, should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for,
the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
