Certain oral and written statements made by Aaron’s, Inc. (the "Company" or "Aaron's") about future events and expectations, including statements in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For
those statements we claim the protection of the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in such section. Forward-looking statements
are not statements of historical facts but are based on management’s current beliefs, assumptions and expectations regarding our future economic
performance, taking into account the information currently available to management.
Generally, the words "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "would," and similar expressions identify forward-
looking statements. All statements which address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future,
including growth in store openings, franchises awarded, market share and statements expressing general optimism about future operating results, are forward-
looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company’s historical experience and the Company’s present expectations or projections. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from
any forward-looking statements include changes in general economic conditions, competition, pricing, customer demand, litigation and regulatory
proceedings and those factors discussed in the Risk Factors section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We qualify any forward-looking statements entirely
by these cautionary factors.
The above mentioned risk factors are not all-inclusive. Given these uncertainties and that such statements speak only as of the date made, you should not
place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions or otherwise.
