Matters discussed in this release may constitute
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
reflect our current views with respect to future events and
financial performance and may include statements concerning
plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or
performance, and underlying assumptions and statements other
than statements of historical facts. The forward-looking
statements in this release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further
assumptions, including without limitation, management's
examination of historical operating trends, data contained in
our records and other data available from third parties.
Although TORM believes that these assumptions were reasonable
when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject
to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are
difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our
control, TORM cannot guarantee that it will achieve or
accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.
Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual
results to differ materially from those discussed in the
forward- looking statements include the strength of the world
economy and currencies, changes in charter hire rates and
vessel values, changes in demand for "tonne miles" of oil
carried by oil tankers, the effect of changes in OPEC's
petroleum production levels and worldwide oil consumption and
storage, changes in demand that may affect attitudes of time
charterers to scheduled and unscheduled dry-docking, changes
in TORM's operating expenses, including bunker prices,
dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in the regulation of
shipping operations, including requirements for double hull
tankers or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential
liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and
international political conditions, potential disruption of
shipping routes due to accidents and political events or acts
by terrorists.
Risks and uncertainties are further described in reports
filed by TORM with the US Securities and Exchange Commission,
including the TORM Annual Report on Form 20-F and its reports
on Form 6-K.
Forward-looking statements are based on management's current
evaluation, and TORM is only under an obligation to update
and change the lis law.
