The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" to
encourage companies to provide prospective information, so long as those
informational statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied
by meaningful, cautionary statements identifying important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed. The Company
desires to take advantage of these provisions.
The information on this
Web site contains cautionary statements identifying important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in this
discussion and analysis, and in any other statements made by officers of the
Company in oral discussions with analysts and contained in public filing
documents. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information
and relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other
developments. In particular, statements containing words, such as "expect,"
"anticipate," "believe," "goal," "objective" or similar words, generally qualify
as forward-looking. The Company undertakes no obligation to update such
forward-looking statements.
The Company cautions that the following
factors, in addition to other factors mentioned from time to time in the
Company's public filings, could cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially: risks inherent in exploratory drilling activities, the timing and
extent of changes in commodity prices, unforeseen engineering and mechanical or
technological difficulties in drilling wells, availability of drilling rigs,
land issues, federal and state regulatory developments, competitive conditions,
new products, the Australian Government's approval of profit repatriations to
the United States, general economic conditions in the United States and
Australia, changes in U.S. and/or Australian tax laws, adequacy of reserves,
credit and other risks associated with the Company's investment activities,
significant changes in interest rates and fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates.
