10. Forward-Looking Statements
This Website (and the documents and information accessible through the Website) may contain forward-looking statements, including management's assessment of Yokogawa's future plans and operations. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond Yokogawa's control. These include, but are not necessarily limited to: the impact of general economic conditions, industry conditions, volatility of commodity prices, currency fluctuations, environmental risks, competition from other industry participants, the lack of availability of qualified personnel or management, stock market volatility and ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources. These and other factors contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts, projections and various future events will not occur. Readers are cautioned that the assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be imprecise and, as such, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. Yokogawa's actual results, performance or achievement could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements, and accordingly, no assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do so, what benefits Yokogawa will derive therefrom. Further discussion of risks, uncertainties and other factors that negatively affect the reliability of the forward-looking information are discussed in our public filings. We further caution that information contained on, or accessible through, this Website is current only as of the date of such information and may be superseded by subsequent events. Yokogawa undertakes no obligation to update, edit, publish or otherwise revise any documents or information available through the Website, including any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or other factors.
