Statements made in this release that are not strictly statements of historical facts, including: (i) our beliefs regarding the opportunities presented by the acquisition of Agro Trend; (ii) our expectations regarding the contributions of the Agro Trend acquisition to our long-term growth plan; (iii) our expectations regarding the sale of our products in the Canadian market; and (iv) our expectations regarding the delivery of shareholder value, are forward-looking statements. Statements of anticipated future results are based on current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: quarterly fluctuations in results; customer demand for our products, including those produced by Agro Trend; domestic and international economic conditions; factors affecting the strength of the agricultural sector; the cost of raw materials; the management of growth; the availability of investment opportunities; unexpected problems or delays with the integration of Agro Trend operations; and other factors detailed from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
