Item 7.01Regulation FD Disclosure
On November 2, 2010, EMS Technologies, Inc. received a letter from a shareholder expressing its views regarding potential strategic alternatives for the Company. On November 8, 2010, the Company responded to the shareholder’s letter. The Registrant’s response is furnished with this filing as Exhibit 99.1.
Statements contained in Exhibit 99.1 regarding the Company’s expectations for various businesses and products are forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those statements as a result of a wide variety of factors, including the risks identified under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and management undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.
