Technologies to Present at SG Cowen's
LOS
ANGELES, California -- February 10, 2003 -- Teledyne Technologies
Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) announced that Robert J. Naglieri, senior vice
president and chief financial officer, and Jason VanWees, director of
corporate development and investor relations, will make a presentation
at SG Cowen's Twenty Fourth Annual Global Aerospace Technology Conference
on Tuesday, February 11, at 5:15 p.m. (Eastern) at the InterContinental
The Barclay New York in New York City. Teledyne Technologies is a leading provider of sophisticated electronic components, instruments and communication products, systems engineering solutions, aerospace engines and components and on-site gas and power generation systems. Teledyne Technologies has operations in the United States, the United Kingdom and Mexico. For more information, visit Teledyne Technologies' website at www.teledyne.com. Teledyne's investor relations presentation contains forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, relating to earnings, cost-savings, growth opportunities, capital expenditures, pension matters and strategic plans. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Many factors, including changes in demand for products sold to the semiconductor, communications and commercial aviation markets, timely development of acceptable and competitive fuel cell products and systems, funding, continuation and award of government programs, receipt of (or failure to receive) government award fees based on performance achievements, the terms of the company's renewal of its current aircraft products liability insurance policy, and economic and political conditions, could change the anticipated results, including the acquisition of Monitor Labs Incorporated. United States' and global responses to the Middle East conflict, terrorism and perceived nuclear threats increase uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements about our businesses. Various responses could realign government programs, and affect the composition, funding or timing of our programs. As happened after the September 11th terrorist attacks, reinstatement of flight restrictions would negatively impact the market for general aviation aircraft piston engines and components. The company is increasingly experiencing adverse effects of September 11th and various public company corporate scandals. For example, these events have had significant impacts on the insurance markets greatly increasing insurance costs. The company's existing aircraft products liability insurance policy expires in May 2003. In addition, the resulting downturn in the stock market has negatively affected the value of the company's pension assets. Absent improved market conditions, the company will be required to make a contribution to its pension plan in 2004. The company continues to take action to assure compliance with the internal controls, disclosure controls and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which resulted from the various corporate scandals. While the company believes its control systems are effective, there are inherent limitations in all control systems, and misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. While Teledyne Technologies' growth strategy includes possible acquisitions, the company cannot provide any assurance as to when, if or on what terms any acquisitions will be made. Acquisitions involve various inherent risks, such as, among others, the company's ability to integrate acquired businesses and to achieve identified financial and operating synergies. Also, the company may not be able to sell or exit timely or on acceptable terms its remaining non-core or under- performing product lines, particularly given the current economic environment. Additional information concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward- looking statements is contained in Teledyne Technologies' periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Forms 10-Q. ### |
