As per law there is a "safe harbor" for certain
forward-looking statements. The statements contained in this web site that
are not historical facts (including without limitation statements to the
effect that Austin Systems or the Company or its management
"believes," "expects," "anticipates,"
"plans," or other similar expressions) are forward-looking
statements based on the Company's current expectations and beliefs
concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company.
There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company
will be those anticipated by the Company. These forward-looking statements
involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the
control of the Company) and assumptions and are subject to change based upon
various factors, including but not limited to the following risks and
uncertainties: changes in the demand for and market acceptance of the
Company's products and services; changes in general economic conditions,
and, specifically, changes in the rate of economic growth in the United
States and other major international economies; the presence of competitors
with greater financial resources and the impact of competitive products,
services and pricing; the cyclical nature of the individual markets in which
the Company's customers operate; changes in investment by the energy, power
and environmental industries; the availability of qualified engineers and
other professional staff needed to execute contracts; the uncertain timing
of awards and contracts; cost overruns on fixed, maximum or unit priced
contracts; cost overruns which negatively affect fees to be earned or cost
variances to be shared on cost plus contracts; changes in trade, monetary
and fiscal policies worldwide; currency fluctuations; the effect of the
Company's policies, including but not limited to the amount and rate of
growth of Company expenses; the continued availability to the Company of
adequate funding sources; delays or difficulties in the production, delivery
or installation of products and the provision of services; the ability of
the Company to successfully integrate the operations of partners; the
protection and validity of patents and other intellectual property; and
various legal, regulatory and litigation risks.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or
should any of the Company's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may
vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or
revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
