Cautionary Statement
This investor presentation contains forward-looking statements. Statements in this investor
presentation that are not historical facts, including statements about management’s beliefs and
expectations, constitute forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current plans,
estimates and projections, and are subject to change based on a number of factors, including those
outlined in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A, Risk Factors. Forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly
any of them in light of new information or future events.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of important factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
è potential effects of a weakening economy, for example, on the demand for our
advertising and marketing services, on our clients’ financial condition and on our
business or financial condition;
è our ability to attract new clients and retain existing clients;
è our ability to retain and attract key employees;
è risks associated with assumptions we make in connection with our critical accounting
estimates, including changes in assumptions associated with any effects of a weakened
economy;
è potential adverse effects if we are required to recognize impairment charges or other
adverse accounting-related developments;
è risks associated with the effects of global, national and regional economic and political
conditions, including counterparty risks and fluctuations in economic growth rates,
interest rates and currency exchange rates; and
è developments from changes in the regulatory and legal environment for advertising and
marketing and communications services companies around the world.
Investors should carefully consider these factors and the additional risk factors outlined in more detail
in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A, Risk Factors.
