Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K and its exhibits contain forward-looking statements that are subject to risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different than
the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not
historical facts. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by phrases such as “believes,” “expects,” “potential,”
“continues,” “may,” “should,” “seeks,” “predicts,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “could,”
“designed,” “should be” and other similar expressions that denote expectations of future or conditional events rather than
statements of fact. Forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements relating to: the
potential impact of improvements in the general economy and the travel industry on our business; our ability to gain market
share in international markets, including the global hotel marketplace; our ability to increase our brand awareness; our
expectations of future air capacity and fares; our expectations for future average daily rates for hotel and car bookings; and our
expectation for international growth rates for online travel sales.
Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements for many reasons,
including, but not limited to, the company's ability to effectively compete in the travel industry; trends, declines, or disruptions
affecting the travel industry or the level of travel activity, particularly air travel; the termination of any major supplier's
participation on the company's websites; the company's ability to renegotiate supplier agreements on acceptable terms; change
in airline distribution economics; the company's ability to maintain and protect its information technology and intellectual
property; Travelport's ownership in and influence over the operation of our business in light of the potential diverging interests
of the company and Travelport; the outcome of pending litigation; system-related failures, interruptions, or security breaches;
risks related to the company's level of indebtedness; risks associated with doing business in multiple currencies and multiple
markets; and general economic and business conditions, as well as the factors described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and in
Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K. Accordingly, you should not unduly rely on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on
which they were made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
The use of the words “we,” “us,” “our” and “the Company” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K refers to Orbitz
Worldwide, Inc. and its subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires or indicates.
