Forward-looking statements
This announcement contains "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, regarding assumptions, expectations, projections,
intentions and beliefs about future events. These statements are
intended as "forward-looking statements". In some cases,
predictive, future-tense or forward-looking words such as "aim",
"anticipate", "believe", "continue", "could", "estimate", "expect",
"forecast", "guidance", "intend", "may", "plan", "potential",
"predict", "projected", "should" or "will" or the negative of such
terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify
forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of
identifying such statements. In addition, we and our
representatives may from time to time make other oral or written
statements which are forward-looking statements, including in our
periodic reports that we file with, or furnish to, the US
Securities and Exchange Commission, other information sent to our
security holders and other written materials. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors because they relate to events and
depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We
caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance and are based on numerous assumptions,
expectations, projections, intentions and
beliefs and
that our actual results of operations, including our financial
position and liquidity, and the development of the industry in
which we operate, may differ materially from (and be more negative
than) those made in, or suggested by, the forward-looking
statements contained in this announcement. Significant factors that
may cause actual results to differ from those we expect include
those discussed under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form
20-F filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on March
29, 2022 and
other reports or documents that we file with, or furnish to, the US
Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. In addition,
even if our results of operations, including our financial position
and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we
operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements
contained in this announcement, those results of operations or
developments may not be indicative of results or developments in
subsequent periods.
Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or
revise the forward-looking statements contained in this
announcement, whether as a result of new information, future events
or otherwise.
