Forward-Looking Statements
The content of this website may contain forward-looking statements that are not historical facts (including without limitation statements to the effect that the company or our management “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans” or other similar expressions). Statements related to revenues, earnings, backlog or other financial information or results are forward-looking statements based on the company’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the company. These forward looking statements, include, among others, statements we make regarding expected domestic and international new build nuclear construction and uprate projects, market potential for new build gas plant projects, market for potential increases in air quality control projects, increasing demand for petrochemical services, as well as our updated guidance as to our projected financial results for fiscal 2012.
Actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements which involve significant risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and assumptions and are subject to change based upon various factors. Some of those risks include, but are not limited to, changes in our clients’ financial conditions including their capital spending, our ability to obtain new contracts and perform under those contracts, client cancellations of a contract or changes in scope, deterioration of global economic conditions, changes in the regulatory environment and failure to achieve projected backlog.
Should one or more of such risks or uncertainties materialize or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. More information about some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements can be found in our reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2011. These documents are also available from the SEC or from our Investor Relations department. See Investor Relations – SEC Filings on this site for copies of such filings.
