ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On August 9, 2001 the Company issued a press release concerning an overstatement of maintenance revenue during the first half of 2001. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99 and incorporated by reference herein.
Some of the herein statements are forward looking and relate to anticipated future operating results. Future operating results may be impeded by single or combined events and/or circumstances that have not been presently anticipated. Forward-looking statements are based on Landmark management’s current expectations and assumptions, which may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation, the significant percentage of sales consummated in the last few days of each calendar quarter making financial predictions difficult and raising a substantial risk of variance in actual results, the risks associated with changes in the Company’s business strategy and focus, possible continued softness in the mainframe enterprise software market, competitive product introductions resulting from rapid technological advances, price competition, any failure or delay in the Company’s ability to develop and introduce new products, uncertainty of customer acceptance of new products, seasonal factors affecting the Company’s sales, the Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified technical, sales, managerial and other key personnel, the Company’s ability to manage expenses effectively, foreign currency risk, and other factors. Therefore, there can be no assurance that actual future results will not differ materially from anticipated results. Readers should refer to Landmark’s disclosure documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for specific details on some of the factors that may affect operating results.
