Forward Looking Statements
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K ("Form 8-K") may constitute
forward-looking statements as contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act (the "Act") that are based on management's current
outlook, expectations, estimates and projections. Words such as "anticipates,"
"believes," "continues," "could," "designed," "effect," "estimates,"
"evaluates," "expects," "forecasts," "goal," "initiative," "intends," "outlook,"
"plans," "potential," "project," "pursue," "seek," "should," "target," "when,"
"would," and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to
identify such forward-looking statements. Further, all statements, other than
statements of historical fact contained or incorporated by reference in this
Form 8-K that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future regarding
our financial position, business strategy and measures to implement that
strategy, including changes to operations, competitive strengths, goals,
expansion and growth of our business and operations, plans, references to future
success and other such matters, are forward-looking statements. Accounting
estimates, such as those described under the heading "Critical Accounting
Policies" in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018 ("Form 10-K"), are inherently forward-looking. All
forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us in
light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current
conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe
are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of performance and the Company's actual results may differ materially
from those expressed, projected, or implied in or by the forward-looking
statements.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K. Forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and
generally beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed, projected or implied in or by the
forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, among others,
include: uncertainties concerning the actions the Company intends to take to
reduce existing structural costs, including the specific nature of the actions,
the ability, timing and costs to complete them, and the ability to realize
expected savings upon their completion; our dependence on automotive and truck
production, both of which are highly cyclical; our reliance on major OEM
customers; our dependence on key management; the uncertainty of the global
economic environment; future changes in laws and regulations, including, by way
of example, tariffs, in the countries in which we operate; and the other risks
noted in reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our most recently-filed Form 10-K. We do
not undertake any obligation to update or announce publicly any updates to or
revisions to any of the forward-looking statements in this Form 8-K to reflect
any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions,
circumstances, or assumptions underlying the statements.
