SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The financial results set forth in this press release are
preliminary. Our disclosure and analysis in this press release,
which do not present historical information, contain
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements convey our current expectations or forecasts of future
events. You can identify these statements because they do not
relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such
as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,”
“believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning. They also
appear in any discussion of future operating or financial
performance. In particular, these include statements relating to
future actions, future performance of our products, expenses, the
outcome of any legal proceedings, and financial
results. Although we believe that we are basing our
expectations and beliefs on reasonable assumptions within the
bounds of what we currently know about our business and operations,
the economy and other conditions, there can be no assurance that
our actual results will not differ materially from what we expect
or believe. Therefore, you should proceed with caution in
relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are
neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances
of future performance.
Forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other important factors, some of which are
listed below, that are difficult to predict and could cause actual
results and outcomes to differ materially from any future results
or outcomes expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Some of the factors that could cause our actual results
to differ from our expectations or beliefs include a decline in the
securities markets that adversely affect our assets under
management, negative performance of our products, the failure to
perform as required under our investment management agreements, and
a general downturn in the economy that negatively impacts our
operations. We also direct your attention to the more specific
discussions of these and other risks, uncertainties and other
important factors contained in our Form 10 and other public
filings. Other factors that could cause our actual results to
differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us
to predict all of them. We do not undertake to update publicly any
forward-looking statements if we subsequently learn that we are
unlikely to achieve our expectations whether as a result of new
information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be
required by law.
