Forward-looking statements may be identified by words including "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect" and similar expressions. We caution readers that forward-looking statements, including without limitation, those relating to future business prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, and income, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that would cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from forward-looking statements include the concentration of our revenues, risks involved in contracting with our customers, including difficulties to accurately estimate costs when bidding on a contract and the occurrence of start-up costs prior to receiving revenues and contract with fixed price provisions, government contracting risks, potential conflicts of interest, difficulties we may have in attracting and retaining management, professional and administrative staff, fluctuation in quarterly results, risks related to acquisitions and acquisition strategy, continued favorable banking relationships, the availability of capital to finance operations and ability to make payments on outstanding indebtedness, weakened economic conditions, acts of terrorism, risks related to competition and our ability to continue to perform efficiently on contracts, and other risks and factors identified from time to time in the reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
