CONCORD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 7, 2004-- This press release contains or may contain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These forward-looking statements are based on the company's current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements are the company's leverage; its dependence upon third parties for equipment and services essential to operate its business; regulatory changes affecting the company's industry, operations, products and services; competitive or technological factors affecting the company's markets, operations, products and services; shifts in market demand and general economic conditions. In addition, the company has acquired businesses in the past and may consider acquiring businesses in the future that provide complementary services. There can be no assurance that the businesses that the company has acquired in the past and may acquire in the future can be successfully integrated. Additional information about factors that could affect the company's business is set forth in the company's various filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those set forth in the company's 2003 annual report on Form 10-K dated March 10, 2004 and in the company's prospectus dated January 21, 2004. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions or estimates prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, expected or intended. Except as otherwise required by federal securities laws, the company does not undertake any obligation to update such forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
