Safe Harbor Statement Certain information in this press release contains ``forward looking statements' within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including those concerning the Company's future results and strategy. Actual results could differ from those in the forward looking statements due to a number of uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the demand for the Company's products and services; the size, timing and recognition of revenue from significant orders; increased competition, changes in Company strategy; product life cycles; the impact of rapid technological advances, evolving industry standards, changes in customer requirements, and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company's expense levels are based, in part, on its expectations as to future revenue and a significant portion of the Company's expenses do not vary with revenue. As a result, if revenue is below expectations, results of operations are likely to be materially adversely effected.
