Item 5. Other Events.
------------
On August 4, 1998, the Registrant issued a press release to report that it
is in the process of conducting the full review of operations previously
announced and that third quarter results will be announced on August 14, 1998.
This Report includes or incorporates by reference information which may
constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. Although the Registrant believes the expectations contained in
such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurances can be given that
such expectations will prove correct. Such forward-looking information is based
upon management's current plans or expectations and is subject to a number of
uncertainties and risks that could significantly affect current plans,
anticipated actions and the Registrant's future financial condition and results.
These uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to, those relating to
successfully managing an aggressive program to acquire and integrate new
companies, including companies with technical services and products that are
relatively new to the Registrant, and also including companies outside the
United States, which present additional risks relating to international
operations; risks and uncertainties relating to conducting operations in a
competitive environment; delays, difficulties, technological changes, management
transitions and employment issues associated with a large-scale transformation
project; debt service requirements (including sensitivity to fluctuation in
interest rates); and general economic conditions. As a consequence, current
plans, anticipated actions and future financial condition and results may differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on
behalf of the Registrant.
