Warning Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Whenever SVC uses words such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “estimate”, “will”, “may” and negatives or derivatives of these or similar expressions, SVC is making forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon SVC’s present intent, beliefs or expectations, but forward-looking statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by SVC’s forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. For example, the pending sales of the remaining Sale Hotels are subject to conditions; accordingly, SVC cannot be sure that it will complete these sales, that these sales will not be delayed, that the terms will not change or, if the sales are completed, that it will use the proceeds as currently expected.
The information contained in SVC’s filings with the SEC, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in SVC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, or incorporated herein or therein, identifies other important factors that could cause differences from SVC’s forward-looking statements.
