economic situation, especially a drop in demand in our most important sales
markets, intensification of the sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone,
increasing political tensions in Eastern Europe, a worsening of our
refinancing possibilities on the credit and finance markets, unavoidable
force majeure events such as natural disasters, epidemics, terrorist acts,
political disturbances, industrial accidents and their consequences on our
sales, purchasing, production and financing activities, currency rate
fluctuations, a change in consumer behaviour towards smaller and less
profitable vehicles or a possible loss of acceptance of our products and
services making it more difficult to achieve prices and utilise production
capacities, price increases for fuel and raw materials, interruptions of
production due to material shortages, strikes or insolvent suppliers,
falling resale prices of used vehicles, the successful implementation of
cost reduction and efficiency improvement measures, the business prospects
of companies in which we hold significant stakes, the successful
implementation of strategic cooperations and joint ventures, the amendments
of laws, provisions and official guidelines, in particularly where they
concern vehicle emissions, fuel consumption and safety, as well as the
completion of ongoing official investigations and the outcome of pending or
imminent future legal proceedings and additional risks and
imponderabilities, some of which are described in the current annual report
under the heading »Risk and opportunity report«. Should one of these
uncertainty factors or imponderabilities arise or should the assumptions on
which the predictive statements are based turn out to be false, the actual
results could deviate considerably from the results referred to or
implicitly expressed in these statements. It is neither our intention, nor
do we assume an obligation to constantly update predictive statements,
since these are exclusively based on the circumstances on the day of the
announcement.
