Forward-Looking Statements
In
connection with the provisions of the U.S. Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the ‘Reform Act’), the
Company may include forward-looking statements (as defined in the
Reform Act) in oral or written public statements issued by or on
behalf of the Company. These forward-looking statements may
include, among other things, plans, objectives, beliefs,
intentions, strategies, projections and anticipated future economic
performance based on assumptions and the like that are subject to
risks and uncertainties. These statements can be identified by the
fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current
facts. They use words such as ‘anticipate’,
‘estimate’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’,
‘will’, ‘project’, ‘plan’,
‘believe’, ‘target’, and other words and
similar references to future periods but are not the exclusive
means of identifying such statements. As such, all forward-looking
statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to
future events and circumstances that are beyond the control of the
Company. Actual results or outcomes may differ materially from
those discussed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
Therefore, you should not rely on such forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of the date they are made, as a prediction of
actual results or otherwise. Important factors which may cause
actual results to differ include but are not limited to: the impact
of outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics, such as the Covid-19 pandemic
and ongoing challenges and uncertainties posed by the Covid-19
pandemic for businesses and governments around the world; the
unanticipated loss of a material client or key personnel; delays or
reductions in client advertising budgets; shifts in industry rates
of compensation; regulatory compliance costs or litigation; changes
in competitive factors in the industries in which we operate and
demand for our products and services; our inability to realise the
future anticipated benefits of acquisitions; failure to realise our
assumptions regarding goodwill and indefinite lived intangible
assets; natural disasters or acts of terrorism; the Company’s
ability to attract new clients; the economic and geopolitical
impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine; the risk of global
economic downturn; technological changes and risks to the security
of IT and operational infrastructure, systems, data and information
resulting from increased threat of cyber and other attacks; the
Company’s exposure to changes in the values of other major
currencies (because a substantial portion of its revenues are
derived and costs incurred outside of the UK); and the overall
level of economic activity in the Company’s major markets
(which varies depending on, among other things, regional, national
and international political and economic conditions and government
regulations in the world’s advertising markets). In addition,
you should consider the risks described in Item 3D, captioned
“Risk Factors,” which could also cause actual results
to differ from forward-looking information. In light of these and
other uncertainties, the forward-looking statements included in
this document should not be regarded as a representation by the
Company that the Company’s plans and objectives will be
achieved. Neither the Company, nor any of its directors, officers
or employees, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee
that the occurrence of any events anticipated, expressed or implied
in any forward-looking statements will actually occur. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update or revise any such
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.
