Some of the information contained in this press release
constitutes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although
NewMarket’s management believes its expectations are based on
reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its
business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual
results will not differ materially from expectations.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from expectations include, but are not limited to, the availability
of raw materials and distribution systems; disruptions at
production facilities, including single-sourced facilities; hazards
common to chemical businesses; the ability to respond effectively
to technological changes in our industry; failure to protect our
intellectual property rights; sudden or sharp raw material price
increases; competition from other manufacturers; current and future
governmental regulations; the gain or loss of significant
customers; failure to attract and retain a highly-qualified
workforce; an information technology system failure or security
breach; the occurrence or threat of extraordinary events, including
natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and health-related epidemics
such as the COVID-19 pandemic; risks related to operating outside
of the United States; political, economic, and regulatory factors
concerning our products; the impact of substantial indebtedness on
our operational and financial flexibility; the impact of
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; resolution of environmental
liabilities or legal proceedings; limitation of our insurance
coverage; our inability to realize expected benefits from
investment in our infrastructure or from recent or future
acquisitions, or our inability to successfully integrate recent or
future acquisitions into our business; the underperformance of our
pension assets resulting in additional cash contributions to our
pension plans; and other factors detailed from time to time in the
reports that NewMarket files with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including the risk factors in Item 1A. “Risk Factors”
