FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND PROJECTIONS
Statements in this Form 10-K and the information we are incorporating by reference, other than statements of
historical fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “believe,” “estimate,”
“outlook,” “anticipate,” “target,” “trends” and similar expressions generally identify these forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions, expectations, plans and projections that are
believed valid when made. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and inherently involve a
wide range of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Specific factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited
to, those identified under Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A and other important factors disclosed in this report and
from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.
You are urged to consider the limitations on, and risks associated with, forward-looking statements and not
unduly rely on the accuracy of predictions contained in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the
date of that document. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
