Section 7 – Regulation FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On October 29, 2014, EXCO Resources, Inc. (“EXCO”) held a conference call to discuss its third quarter financial results. EXCO wishes to clarify a statement made during the conference call. In response to a question, Harold L. Hickey, President and Chief Operating Officer, stated that EXCO had not hired any investment bankers to evaluate potential offers for EXCO. In connection with its search for a new Chief Executive Officer, EXCO engaged an investment banker to assist in identifying candidates (and related management teams) and evaluating any oil and natural gas entities or properties owned by or affiliated with such candidates which EXCO may consider acquiring, as described in EXCO’s press release dated October 10, 2014. There can be no assurance that any candidate presently in discussions with EXCO will be selected. As is often customary, the range of services that are covered by the engagement letter is broad enough to cover financial advice from such investment banker with respect to a wide range of possible transactions including any offers to acquire EXCO or any of its assets.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements expressing expectations of future plans, objectives and performance that constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. EXCO undertakes no obligation to correct or update any of its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All statements based on future expectations rather than on historical facts are forward-looking statements that are dependent on certain events, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. A more complete discussion of risks and uncertainties that could affect the future results of EXCO and its subsidiaries is included in EXCO’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
