Business Wire
Octel Corp. (NYSE: OTL) today announced that its Board of Directors
has declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.07 (seven cents) per
share, payable on September 30, 2005 to the holders of record of
the common stock of the corporation on August 31, 2005. Octel
Corp., a Delaware corporation, is a global chemical company
specializing in high performance fuel additives and special and
effect chemicals. The company's strategy is to manage profitably
and responsibly the decline in world demand for its major product -
tetraethyl lead (TEL) in gasoline - through competitive
differentiation and stringent product stewardship, to expand its
Petroleum Specialties and Performance Chemicals businesses
organically through product innovation and focus on customer needs,
and to seek synergistic growth opportunities through joint venture,
alliances, collaborative arrangements and acquisitions. CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT RELATIVE TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain written
and oral statements made by our Company and subsidiaries or with
the approval of an authorized executive officer of our Company,
including statements made in filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, may constitute "forward-looking statements" as
defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Generally, the words "believe", "expect", "intend", "estimate",
"project", "will" and similar expressions identify forward-looking
statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All
statements which address operating performance, events or
developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future
- including statements relating to volume growth, share of sales or
earnings per share growth, and statements expressing general
optimism about future operating results - are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from our Company's historical experience and our present
expectations or projections. As and when made, management believes
that these forward-looking statements are reasonable. However,
caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on such
forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of
the date when made. Although we believe that our expectations are
based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge
of our business and operations, there can be no assurance that
actual results will not differ materially from our expectations.
Among the risk factors which could cause actual results to differ
materially from expectations are the risks and uncertainties
discussed in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2004 and those described from time to time in the
Company's other filings with the SEC. These include, without
limitation, the timing of orders received from customers, the gain
or loss of significant customers, the effects of changing
government regulations and economic and market conditions,
competition from other manufacturers and changes in the demand for
our products, including the rate of decline in demand for TEL, and
business and legal risks inherent in non-US activities, including
political and economic uncertainty, import and export limitations
and market risks related to changes in interest rates and foreign
exchange rates, successful completion of planned disposals, the
impact of changes in senior management, government investigations
and material fines or other penalties resulting from its voluntary
disclosure to OFAC, and the existence and impact of any
deficiencies or material weaknesses or remedial actions taken by
the Company in respect of a potential violation of the Code of
Ethics by the former Chief Executive Officer which may have
resulted in a potential violation of certain laws and regulations
by the former Chief Executive Officer and the Company, and
compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In
addition, increases in the cost of product, changes in the market
in general and significant changes in new product introduction
could result in actual results varying from expectations. Should
one or more of these risks materialize (or the consequences of such
developments worsen), or should the underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those
expected. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update
or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise.
