REPORT OF FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER
FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER 2000
UTi WORLDWIDE INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
UTi Worldwide Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation ("UTi" or the
"Company"), issued two news releases dated December 7, 2000 (the "News
Releases") announcing the Company's results for the three and nine months ended
October 31, 2000. The News Releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to
this Report on Form 6-K and are incorporated by reference herein. In addition,
on December 12, 2000 UTi also posted a document entitled, "Fiscal 2001 Third
Quarter Results with Commentary" ("Commentary"), on its web site at
www.go2uti.com, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.3.
Certain of the statements contained in the News Releases and Commentary (other
than the financial statements and other statements of historical fact) are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company
intends that all such statements be subject to the "safe-harbor" provisions
contained in those sections. Such forward-looking statements may include, but
are not limited to, the discussion of (i) the Company's growth strategies; (ii)
trends in the Company's business; and (iii) the Company's future liquidity
requirements and capital resources.
Forward-looking statements are made based upon management's current expectations
and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon the
Company. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in
accordance with management's expectations or that the effects of future
developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management. The
important factors described elsewhere in the exhibits to this report and in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form F-1 (including, without limitation,
those factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" section thereof), on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, could affect (and in some cases have
affected) the Company's actual results and could cause such results to differ
materially from estimates or expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements. In light of these factors, there can be no assurance that events
anticipated by the forward-looking statements contained in the exhibits to this
report will in fact transpire.
While management periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties
affecting its results of operations and financial condition, the Company does
not intend to review or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise.
