The Company wishes to caution readers that various factors could cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements in news releases, and other communications, including oral statements, such as references to future profitability, made from time to time by representatives of the Company. Specific risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company's profitability include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, sudden and/or sharp declines in steel prices, adequate funding for infrastructure projects, the ultimate number of concrete ties that will have to be replaced pursuant to the previously-disclosed product warranty claim of Union Pacific Railroad and an overall resolution of the related contract claims, production delays or problems encountered at our manufacturing facilities and the availability of existing and new piling and rail products.   There are also no assurances that the announced dividend will continue on a quarterly basis should known or unknown factors negatively impact the financial position of the Company. 

Matters discussed may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Sentences containing words such as "anticipates," "expects," or "will," generally should be considered forward-looking statements.  More detailed information on these and additional factors which could affect the Company's operating and financial results are described in the Company's Forms 10-K, 10-Q and other reports, filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company urges all interested parties to read these reports to gain a better understanding of the many business and other risks that the Company faces.  The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise such statements, whether as a result of new information or otherwise, except as required by securities laws.
