Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure
On September 17, 2003, Yellow Corporation (“Yellow” or the “Company”) issued a press release regarding third quarter 2003 guidance, certain costs of the proposed Roadway acquisition, the record date for the special meeting of Yellow stockholders and the targeted closing of the Roadway transaction. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The information presented in this Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements and certain assumptions upon which such forward-looking statements are in part based. Numerous important factors, including those factors identified as in Yellow’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and other of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the fact that the assumptions set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K could prove incorrect, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in such forward-looking statements.
Information in this Current Report is being furnished pursuant to Item 9 and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in the Current Report shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The furnishing of the information in the Current Report is not intended to, and does not, constitute a representation that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that the information this Current Report contains is material investor information that is not otherwise publicly available.
