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.
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,” “intends,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “plan,”
“potential,” “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, Company management’s examination of historical
operating trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other
data available from third parties. Although the Company believes
that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these
assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies that are difficult or impossible to predict and are
beyond the Company’s control, the Company cannot assure you that it
will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or
projections.
In addition to these important factors, other
important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual
results to differ materially from those discussed in the
forward-looking statements include the severity, magnitude and
duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, including impacts of the
pandemic and of businesses’ and governments’ responses to the
pandemic on our operations, personnel, and on the demand for
seaborne transportation of bulk products; the strength of world
economies and currencies, general market conditions, including
fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand
for dry bulk shipping capacity, changes in the Company’s operating
expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs,
the market for the Company’s 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, vessel breakdowns and instances
of off-hires and other factors. Please see the Company’s filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a more
complete discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties. The
Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any
forward-looking statement, or to make any other forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events
or otherwise.
