Any such forward-looking statements may involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results encompassed within the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited, to the following: the impact upon operations of legal and tax compliance matters or internal controls review, improvement and remediation, including the detection of wrongdoing, improper activities, or circumvention of internal controls; the ability to manage growth effectively including the ability to integrate acquisitions; the ability to manage risks associated with business divestitures; changes in regulations or standards applicable to the Company’s products; the ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; and risks generally associated with information systems upgrades and the company-wide implementation of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates.
