Forward-Looking Statement
Matters discussed in this release may constitute forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements reflect the current views of Global Oceanic Carriers
Limited ("the Company") with respect to future events and financial performance
and may 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 forward-looking statements in this release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating
trends, data contained in our 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 which are difficult or impossible to predict and
are beyond our control, the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or
accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.
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
changes in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand that may
affect attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled dry-docking,
changes in the Company's operating expenses, including bunker prices,
dry-docking and insurance costs, or actions taken by regulatory authorities,
potential liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and
international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due
to accidents and political events or acts by terrorists. The Company does not
assume, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to update these forward-looking
statements.
