When used in this presentation, and in any other oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "may," "could," "should," "hope," "might," "believe," "expect," "plan," "assume," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "likely," or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of federal securities laws. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, changes in economic conditions in the market area of FBIZ, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuation in interest rates, demand for loans in the market area of FBIZ, borrowers defaulting in the repayment of loans and competition. These risks could cause actual results to differ materially from what FBIZ has anticipated or projected. These risk factors and uncertainties should be carefully considered by potential investors. See Item 1A - Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for discussion relating to risk factors impacting FBIZ. Investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The factors described within the Form 10-K could affect the financial performance of FBIZ and could cause actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods. Where any such forward-looking statement includes a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying such forward-looking statement, FBIZ cautions that, while its management believes such assumptions or bases are reasonable and are made in good faith, assumed facts or bases can vary from actual results, and the differences between assumed facts or bases and actual results can be material, depending on the circumstances. Where, in any forward-looking statement, an expectation or belief is expressed as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement of expectation or belief will result, or be achieved or accomplished. FBIZ does not intend to, and specifically disclaims any obligation to, update any forward-looking statements. Forward Looking Statement |
