This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws. Forward-looking statements and information usually relate to future events and anticipated revenues, earnings, cash flows or other aspects of our operations or operating results. Forward-looking statements are often identified by the words “will,” “can,” “expect,” and similar expressions, including the negative thereof. The absence of these words, however, does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking.

These factors include, without limitation, the following: failure to obtain required regulatory approvals in a timely manner or otherwise; failure to satisfy any closing conditions to the proposed acquisition of THE YES; risks associated with tax liabilities or changes in U.S. federal tax laws or interpretations to which the proposed transaction with THE YES or the parties thereto are subject; risks related to the operation of THE YES’s business prior to the closing of the acquisition; failure to successfully integrate any new business; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of any combined operations; unanticipated costs of acquiring or integrating THE YES; potential impact of announcement or consummation of the proposed acquisition on relationships with third parties, including employees, customers, partners and competitors; inability to retain key personnel; changes in legislation or government regulations affecting the acquisition or the parties; and economic, social or political conditions that could adversely affect the proposed acquisition or the parties. More details about these and other risks that may impact our business are included in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2021 and in our other SEC filings.
