Important Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this release, other than purely historical
information, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements that
include the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,”
“anticipate,” “will,” “may,” “would” and similar statements of a future
or forward-looking nature may be used to identify forward-looking
statements. All forward-looking statements address matters that involve
risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Triton’s control.
Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such
statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any
such statements.
These factors include, without limitation, economic, business,
competitive, market and regulatory conditions and the following:
decreases in the demand for leased containers; decreases in market
leasing rates for containers; difficulties in re-leasing containers
after their initial fixed-term leases; customers’ decisions to buy
rather than lease containers; dependence on a limited number of
customers for a substantial portion of revenues; customer defaults;
decreases in the selling prices of used containers; extensive
competition in the container leasing industry; difficulties stemming
from the international nature of its business; decreases in the demand
for international trade; disruption to its operations resulting from the
political and economic policies of the United States and other
countries, particularly China, including but not limited to the impact
of trade wars and tariffs; disruption to its operations from failures
of, or attacks on, its information technology systems; disruption to its
operations as a result of natural disasters; compliance or failure to
comply with laws and regulations related to economic and trade
sanctions, security, anti-terrorism, environmental protection and
corruption; ability to obtain sufficient capital to support our growth;
restrictions imposed by the terms of our debt agreements; changes in tax
laws in Bermuda, the United States and other countries and other risks
and uncertainties, including those risk factors set forth in the section
entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February
19, 2019 and our preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying
prospectus related to the public offering filed with the SEC on June 17,
2019.
The foregoing list of important factors should not be construed as
exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary
statements that are included herein and elsewhere. Any forward-looking
statements made herein are qualified in their entirety by these
cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual
results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if
substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences
to, or effects on, Triton or its businesses or operations. Except to the
extent required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update
publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of
new information, future developments or otherwise.
