FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The information provided may contain "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in securities law. These forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenue or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions, business trends and other information that is not historical information. When used in commentary, the words "estimates," "expects," "anticipates," "projects," "plans," "intends," "believes," "forecasts," or future or conditional verbs, such as "will," "should," "could" or "may," and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends and data are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved.
There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others: our ability to service our substantial leverage; limitations on flexibility in operating our business contained in our debt agreements; cyclical demand for our products; movements of oil prices affecting raw material costs causing volatility in the results and changes in the requirement for working capital; difficulties in securing the raw materials; increases in interest rates as a result of our variable rate indebtedness; pricing pressure from our customers; uncertainties caused by international operations; our ability to develop new products and process technologies; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; high competition in the markets in which we operate; adverse changes to environmental, health and safety regulations; operating hazards in our production facilities; inability to achieve expected cost savings; our ability to realize the full value of our intangible assets; our ability to attract and retain skilled employees, particularly research scientists, technical sales professionals and engineers; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; and the possibility that our owners’ interests will conflict with ours. For a more detailed description of the risk factors affecting the Basell business refer to the Basell AF S.C.A. (formerly Nell AF S.a.r.l.) Offering Memorandum for the Senior Notes due 2015 dated 4 August 2005. There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
