Oneida, LTD. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this
"Current Report"), including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished pursuant to Item
7.01, and the information contained therein shall not be deemed "filed" for
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise
subject to the liabilities under that Section. Furthermore, the information
contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference
into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933.
This Current Report, including Exhibit 99.1, includes "forward-looking"
statements within the meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Words such as "expects", "intends," "plans," "projects," "believes,"
"estimates," and similar expressions are used to identify these forward looking
statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and
involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future events that
may not prove to be accurate. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially
from what is expressed or forecasted in these forward looking statements. As a
result, these statements speak only as of the date they were made and we
undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Our actual results and future trends may differ materially depending on a
variety of factors, including the continued operations, viability and growth of
customers, production rate increases and decreases, acquisition and divestiture
plans, and other cost-reduction and productivity efforts; performance issues
with key suppliers, subcontractors and customers; global trade policies;
worldwide political stability; domestic and international economic conditions;
price escalation; legal and investigatory proceedings; and other economic,
political and technological risks and uncertainties. For further information
