Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 14, 2007, Nastech Pharmaceutical Company Inc. (the "Company") held a conference call to discuss the two press releases that it issued on November 13, 2007 announcing its corporate restructuring initiatives aimed at reducing operating expenses and enhancing shareholder value. A copy of the transcript of the conference call is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained herein and in the accompanying exhibits is being furnished pursuant to "Item 7.01 Regulation FD." The information contained herein and in the accompanying exhibits shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference to such filing. The information in this report, including the exhibits hereto, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section or Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements incorporated by reference from the transcript contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in such sections. Forward-looking statements include information concerning the Company’s possible or assumed future results of operations and statements preceded by, followed by, or that include the words "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "believe," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which the Company cannot predict with accuracy and some of which the Company might not even anticipate. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, it can give no assurance that such expectations will be achieved. Future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
