The words "expect," "will," "should," "would," "anticipate," "project," "outlook," "believe," "intend," "confident," "optimistic," and similar phrases as they relate to future events are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the company's current views and assumptions but are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are the following: risks that the company may not be able to maintain its current level of revenue or its gross margin levels; risks that one or more of the company's concentrated group of customers may reduce demand or price for the company's products or a particular product; risks that design wins will not result in meaningful revenue; the company's dependence on a limited number of products; risks that the company's new products may not be completed in a timely fashion or gain market acceptance; risks associated with the company's efforts to expand its business beyond display drivers, including efforts to develop and market LED drivers, audio CODEC's and FM transmitters, and touch sensor technology products; risks related to the semiconductor and mobile electronic industries; the company's ability to keep up with technological change; risks associated with any strategic transaction undertaken by the company; risks with managing international activities; and other factors. For a discussion of these and other factors that could impact the company's financial results and cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, in the sections titled Risk Factors and Forward-Looking Statements, which are available at www.leadis.com.
