The unaudited preliminary volume point results for the second quarter 2020 represent the most current information available to management and are based on calculations or figures that have been prepared internally by management and have not been reviewed or audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from these preliminary volume point results due to the completion of the Company’s financial closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between the date of this announcement and when results for the second quarter 2020 are finalized. The preliminary volume point results included in this announcement are subject to risks and uncertainties and should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

“Coming on the heels of our largest volume point quarter in the Company’s history, this tender offer reflects our continued confidence in the business and our long-term strategy,” said John Agwunobi, Chairman and CEO of the Company. “With our strong cash flows and favorable debt maturity schedule, we believe we can drive future growth and invest in our business while continuing to return value to shareholders.”

The tender offer will be made under the Company’s $1.5 billion share repurchase program announced on October 30, 2018, substantially all of which remains available prior to this tender offer.

The Company and its Board of Directors continue to believe the repurchase of common shares is consistent withthe Company’s long-term goal of maximizing shareholder value and a tender offer provides a mechanism to return capital to shareholders who seek liquidity under current market conditions and to allow shareholders who do not participate in the tender offer to share in a larger portion of the Company’s future potential.

The full terms and conditions of the tender offer are set out in the Offer to Purchase, dated July 13, 2020 (“Offer to Purchase”), and the associated Letter of Transmittal and other materials relating to the tender offer that the Company is filing today with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The tender offer is not contingent upon obtaining any financing. However, the tender offer is subject to a number of other terms and conditions, which are described in detail in the Offer to Purchase.

None of the Company, its Board of Directors or its affiliates, nor the information agent or the depositary and paying agent, are making any recommendation to shareholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their common shares into the tender offer. Shareholders must decide how many shares they will tender, if any, and the cash price within the stated range at which they will offer their shares for purchase by the Company. In doing so, shareholders should read carefully the information in the Offer to Purchase and the other offer documents.
