Special Note to Investors
Energen, Alagasco and Energen Resources Corporation provide information on this Web site that might be of interest to their investors. This information is often forward-looking and may be altered materially due to various important factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in economic and competitive conditions, fluctuations in inflation rates, legislative and regulatory changes, shifting financial market conditions, and future business decisions - all of which are difficult to predict. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved oil and gas reserves and in projecting future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. As a result, the amount and timing of future reserves and production may differ significantly from estimates. Among other things, they are dependent on Taurus's ability to acquire oil and gas properties, fully exploit and develop them, and successfully participate in exploratory and development drilling programs. The drilling of exploratory wells can involve significant risks, including those related to timing, success rates, and cost over-runs. These risks can be affected by lease and rig availability, complex geology and other factors. Although the Company hedges a portion of its known production against commodity price fluctuations, changes in oil and gas prices may affect its financial position and results of operations.
