Safe Harbor Statement
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K include statements relating to TearLab’s current, preliminary estimates of total revenue and booked systems orders for the second quarter of 2013. These forward-looking estimates are based on management’s current expectations, forecasts, and projections and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those stated in these forward-looking statements. In particular, TearLab has not completed its regular quarter-end financial closing procedures, and TearLab’s independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its review of TearLab’s financial statements. Completion of TearLab’s financial statements and the subsequent review by TearLab’s independent registered accounting firm could result in adjustments to the estimates provided today. In addition, TearLab’s business is subject to numerous other risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect investors in its securities, including those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and TearLab’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. TearLab cautions investors to review these filings carefully.
