presentation on October 8, 2001
ITEM 9: REGULATION FD
On October 8, 2001, certain members of the Registrant's management will meet
with institutional investors and will make a slide presentation. The text of
slides to be shown during the presentation is attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K.
The furnishing of this Exhibit is not intended to constitute a representation
that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that the information it
contains includes material investor information that is not otherwise publicly
available. Statements in Exhibit 99 that are not strictly historical are
"forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of
the federal securities laws. Investors are cautioned that such statements are
only predictions, and speak only as of October 8, 2001, the date of the
presentation. The Registrant does not assume any obligation to update such
information in the future. The Registrant's actual results in the future may
differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to
risks and uncertainties that exist in the Registrant's operations and business
environment including, but not limited to: the impact of increasing competition
or deterioration of economic conditions in LaBarge's markets; cutbacks in
defense spending by the U.S. Government; the outcome of litigation the Company
is party to; unexpected increases in the cost of raw materials, labor and other
resources necessary to operate LaBarge's business; and the availability, amount,
type and cost of financing for LaBarge and any changes to that financing.
