Item 2.02
Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On August 6, 2008,
Tom Kilgore, TVA’s President and Chief Executive Officer, held a web seminar
with the media in which he discussed the pressures TVA is facing from the
increased cost of fuel. A copy of the materials used by Mr. Kilgore
during the web seminar is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
The furnished materials contain
forward-looking statements relating to future events and future
performance. All statements other than those that are purely
historical may be forward-looking statements. In certain cases,
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,”
“will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,”
“plan,” “predict,” “assume,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “objective,” “possible,”
“probably,” “likely,” “potential,” or other similar expressions.
Although TVA believes that the
assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, TVA does
not guarantee the accuracy of these statements. Numerous factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements. Several of these factors are set forth in
TVA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2007, and in other filings TVA makes from time to time with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. TVA undertakes no obligation to
update any forward-looking statement to reflect developments that occur after
the statement is made.
