Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this report include “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, statements made in this report that are not historical facts (including but not limited to expectations, estimates, assumptions and/or projections regarding our growth opportunities and strategies, addressable markets, industry volumes, industry outlook, competitive position, operational and product strategies, cost savings, projected growth, 2022 financial guidance and 2025 financial targets) may be forward-looking statements. Words such as “should,” “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “project,” “target,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “assume,” “could,” “continue” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on management’s current assumptions, expectations and/or beliefs, are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and changes that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results projected, expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and those described from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these risk factors are outside of our control, and as such, they involve risks which are not currently known that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed or implied herein.
