Forward-looking statements in this news releaseinclude the Company's recorded figures representing allowances for remaining expected lifetime credit losses, its estimates of fair value(most significantly for its receivables accounted for at fair value), its provision for credit losses, its entries offsetting the preceding,and figures derived from any of the preceding. In each case, such figures are forward-looking statements because they are dependent onthe Company’s estimates of losses to be incurred in the future. The accuracy of such estimates may be adversely affected by variousfactors, which include the following: possible increased delinquencies; repossessions and losses on retail installment contracts; incorrectprepayment speed and/or discount rate assumptions; possible unavailability of qualified personnel, which could adversely affect the Company’sability to service its portfolio; possible increases in the rate of consumer bankruptcy filings, which could adversely affect the Company’srights to collect payments from its portfolio; other changes in government regulations affecting consumer credit; possible declines inthe market price for used vehicles, which could adversely affect the Company’s realization upon repossessed vehicles; and economicconditions in geographic areas in which the Company's business is concentrated. Any or all of such factors also may affect the Company’sfuture financial results, as to which there can be no assurance. Any implication that the results of the most recently completed quarterare indicative of future results is disclaimed, and the reader should draw no such inference. Factors such as those identified above inrelation to losses to be incurred in the future may affect future performance.
