Safe Harbor and Disclaimers The following constitutes a “Safe Harbor” statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Our presentation today and these slides contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including forward-looking statements about our expected future financial and operating performance, our market opportunities and demand for our products, our views of the trends in the industries we serve, and our capabilities and technological position in the market. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such statements are set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in Kadant’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 30, 2013. These include risks and uncertainties relating to our dependence on the pulp and paper industry; significance of sales and operation of manufacturing facilities in China; commodity and component price increases or shortages; international sales and operations; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; competition; soundness of suppliers and customers; our effective tax rate; future restructurings; soundness of financial institutions; our debt obligations; restrictions in our credit agreement; our acquisition strategy; protection of patents and proprietary rights; failure of our information systems or breaches of data security; fluctuations in our share price; and anti-takeover provisions. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward‐looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. The following slides and related commentary address certain current goals and targets for Kadant over the next five years. There can be no assurance that these goals and targets will be achieved and, in addition to the general risks and uncertainties of our business, they are based on a number of assumptions that may or may not prove accurate or achievable. These assumptions include our ability to identify and complete acquisitions that have the acquisition characteristics we desire and achieve the intended financial metrics, our ability and willingness to continue to pay dividends consistent with our recent practice, our ability to effect open market stock repurchases and our ability to implement our internal growth initiatives successfully and achieve the goals of such initiatives. Additionally, these goals and targets may change at any time and we undertake no obligations to update them. * © 2013 Kadant Inc. All rights reserved.
