Cautionary Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements contained in this report other than statements of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding our pursuit of strategic alternatives. You should not place undue reliance on such statements because they are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties relating to the registrant's operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many are beyond the registrant's control. Forward-looking statements include information concerning certain expectations and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the registrant's possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of its business strategy. These statements often include words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “seek,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “contemplate,” “possible” or similar expressions. The forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on our current expectations and estimates of future events and trends, which affect or may affect our businesses and operations. You should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although the registrant believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect its actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements. These factors are more fully discussed in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in the registrant's Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-182535) and the registrant's Annual Report on Form 20-F (File No. 001-35627) as supplemented by the risk factors contained in the registrant's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
