Cautionary Language Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
Information set forth in this Current Report (including the exhibits attached hereto) contains and incorporates by reference “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties including those described in “Summary—Recent developments,” in Part I. Item 1. Business, Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors and Part I. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, each incorporated by reference from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors, each incorporated by reference from our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 28, 2020. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “project,” “might,” “expects,” “could,” “propose,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected. While we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of unknown factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.
We caution you that the important factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements included and incorporated by reference in this Current Report may not in fact occur. The information and statements included in this Current Report speak only as of the date of this Current Report, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
