On May 11, 2007, members of our management, including T. Jay Collins, President and Chief Executive Officer, will deliver a presentation to investors and industry analysts at our Panama City, Florida location. The presentation on Oceaneering’s Subsea Products current business status, particularly regarding Multiflex U.S., and future business outlook will precede a tour of the Oceaneering Multiflex facility. The presentation slides will be available on our website, www.oceaneering.com, by first visiting our Investor Relations page and then choosing Presentations.
Please note that certain information contained in the presentation, as well as certain written and oral statements made or incorporated by reference from time to time by us or our representatives in our reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, news releases, conferences, teleconferences, web postings or otherwise, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to the “Safe Harbor” provisions of those statutes. Forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “forecast,” “budget,” “goal” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Among other items, the forward-looking statements include statements about:
| • | expectation of achieving record Subsea Products operating income results in 2007, $30 to $45 million more than what was reported in 2006; |
| • | anticipation that 2007 Subsea Products operating income will likely be in the range of 25% to 30% of total operating income for the year; |
| • | expectation of securing a significant amount of additional work for Subsea Products during 2007 and over the next few years; and |
| • | forecasted ranges, depending on product mix, of the amount of annual revenue each of Oceaneering’s Multiflex umbilical plants are capable of achieving at full capacity. |
These forward-looking statements are based on our current information and expectations that involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Among the factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements are:
| • | worldwide demand for oil and gas; |
| • | general economic and business conditions and industry trends; |
| • | the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, to set and maintain production levels and pricing; |
| • | the level of production by non-OPEC countries; |
| • | domestic and foreign tax policy; |
| • | laws and governmental regulations that restrict exploration and development of oil and gas in various offshore jurisdictions; |
| • | rapid technological changes; |
| • | the political environment of oil-producing regions; |
| • | the price and availability of alternative fuels; and |
| • | overall economic conditions. |
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual outcomes could vary materially from those indicated. For additional information regarding these and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, see our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and our latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
