Safe
Harbor
Forward
looking
statements
|
Matters
discussed in this release may constitute forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements reflect our current views 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
TORM
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, TORM 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, changes in charter
hire rates
and vessel values, changes in demand for “tonne miles” of oil carried by
oil tankers, the effect of changes in OPEC’s petroleum production levels
and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in demand
that may
affect attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled
drydocking, changes in TORM’s operating expenses, including bunker prices,
dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in governmental rules
and
regulations including requirements for double hull tankers 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. Risks and uncertainties are further
described in reports filed by TORM with the US Securities and
Exchange
Commission, including the TORM Annual Report on Form 20-F and
its reports
on Form 6-K.
|
||
|
Forward
looking statements are based on management’s current evaluation, and TORM
is only under obligation to update and change the listed expectations
to
the extent required by law.
