Forward-Looking Statements and Additional Information
This presentation and related communications should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes, and other information contained
in our Annual Rep
orts on Form
10-K, Quarterly
Reports
on Form 10-Q, and
Current Reports on Form 8-K. This inform
ation
is preliminary and
based on company and third-party data available at the time of the presentation or related communication.
This presentation and related communications contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts—such as our statements
about targets and expectations for various financial and operating metrics. Forward-looking statements often use words such as “believe,”
“expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “pursue,” “seek,” “continue,” “estimate,” “project,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “potential,” “target,” “objective,” “trend,”
“plan,” “goal,” “initiative,” “priorities,” or other words of comparable meaning or future-tense or conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,”
“would,” or “could.” Forward-looking statements convey our expectations, intentions, or forecasts about future events, circumstances, or results. All
forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which may change over time and many of which
are beyond our control. You should not rely on any forward-looking statement as a prediction or guarantee about the future. Actual future
objectives, strategies, plans, prospects, performance, conditions, or results may differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking
statement. Some of the factors that may cause actual results or other future events or circumstances to differ from those in forward-looking
statements are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, or other applicable documents that are filed or furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (collectively, our “SEC filings”). Any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf speaks only as of the date that it was
made. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of events, circumstances, or results that arise after the
date that the statement was made, except as required by applicable securities laws. You, however, should consult further disclosures (including
disclosures of a forward-looking nature) that we may make in any subsequent SEC filings.
