On
November 2, 2009, Darling International Inc. (the “Company”) will deliver an
investor presentation that includes the material attached to this Current Report
on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) as Exhibit 99.1. The information contained
in this Current Report, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished pursuant to
Item 7.01, and the information contained therein shall not be deemed “filed” for
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise
subject to the liabilities under that Section. Furthermore, the information
contained in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference
into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933.
This Current Report, including Exhibit
99.1, includes “forward-looking” statements regarding the business operations of
the Company and the industry in which it operates. These statements are
identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “begin,” “look forward,” “expect,”
“believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “should,” “estimate,” “continue,”, “momentum”
and other words referring to events to occur in the future. These statements
reflect the Company’s current view of future events and are based on its
assessment of, and are subject to, a variety of risks and uncertainties beyond
its control, including the unprecedented turmoil existing in world financial,
credit, commodities and stock markets, a decline in consumer
confidence and discretionary spending, the general performance of the
U.S. economy, global demands for bio-fuels and grain and oilseed commodities,
which have exhibited volatility, and the Company’s ability to bring its planned
joint venture to construct a renewable diesel plant to fruition, each of which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such
forward-looking statements. Other risks and uncertainties regarding the Company,
its business and the industry in which it operates are referenced from time to
time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation
to) update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
