How does FD affect the Safe Harbor for forward-looking information?
FD does not amend the Safe Harbor in any way, but FD does enhance the importance of complying with the Safe Harbor requirements. Given that guidance will be more transparent than in the past, companies may be more exposed to shareholder lawsuits if they miss the quarter. A company that properly invokes the Safe Harbor when issuing the guidance will have substantial protection against such suits.
