Nordic American Tankers Limited (NYSE:NAT) - Financial Calendar & Dividend Declaration.
October 19 2017 - 12:04PM
YASTEST
Hamilton, Bermuda, October 19, 2017
NAT has set its dividend for the 3rd quarter at
$0.03 per share. The record date is November 13, 2017 and the
payment date will be on or about December 5, 2017. NAT is
continuing its consistent policy of paying quarterly dividends.
This is the 81st consecutive
quarterly dividend declaration since the autumn of 1997.
As expected due to market conditions, our results
for the 3rd quarter of
2017 were lower than those of 1Q2017 and 2Q2017. As at the
beginning of the 4th quarter,
there appears to be an upswing in the tanker market.
The 3Q2017 report is scheduled to be announced
November 6, 2017 before NYSE opening.
CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Matters discussed in this press
release may constitute forward-looking statements. The
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe
harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to
encourage companies to provide prospective information about their
business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning
plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance,
and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other
than statements of historical facts.
The Company desires to take
advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary
statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The
words "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "forecast,"
"project," "plan," "potential," "will," "may," "should," "expect,"
"pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking
statements.
The forward-looking statements in
this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of
which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including
without limitation, our management's examination of historical
operating trends, data contained in our records and other data
available from third parties. Although we believe that these
assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions
are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are
beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or
accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. We
undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement,
whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
Important factors that, in our
view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those
discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of
world economies and currencies, general market conditions,
including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes
in demand in the tanker market, as a result of changes in OPEC's
petroleum production levels and world wide oil consumption and
storage, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker
prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels,
availability of financing and refinancing, changes in governmental
rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities,
potential liability from pending or future litigation, general
domestic and international political conditions, potential
disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events,
vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other important
factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the
prospectus and related prospectus supplement, our Annual Report on
Form 20-F, and our reports on Form 6-K.
