CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
Curtiss-Wright Corporation is including the following cautionary statement in
this Form 8-K to make applicable and take advantage of the "safe harbor"
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any
forward-looking statement made by, or on behalf of, Curtiss-Wright Corporation.
Where any such forward-looking statement includes a statement of the assumptions
or basis underlying such forward-looking statement, Curtiss-Wright Corporation
cautions that, while it believes such assumptions or basis to be reasonable and
makes them in good faith, assumed facts or basis almost always vary from actual
results, and the differences between assumed facts or basis and actual results
can be material, depending upon the circumstances. Certain factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those projected have been
discussed herein and include the factors set forth below. Other factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially include uncertainties of
economic, competitive and market decisions and future business decisions, all of
which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are
beyond the control of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. Where, in any forward-looking
statement, Curtiss-Wright Corporation, or its management,
2
expresses an expectation or belief as to future results, such expectation or
belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but
there can be no assurance that the statement of expectation or belief will
result or be achieved or accomplished. The words "believe," "expect," "intend"
and "anticipate" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized.
