Forward-looking Statements

 

This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” of the Company, including statements concerning: the expected impact of this acquisition of the Target on the Company’s business and its results of operations; the creation of long-term value for shareholders and investors of the Company; potential synergies and integration between the Company and the Target as well as their businesses. Words such as “will,” future,” “expects,” “believes,” and “intends,” or similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Actual results could differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements due to certain factors, including without limitation, the reaction to the transaction of the Target’s business partners; the reaction of competitors to the acquisition; the retention of the Target’s employees; the Company’s plans for the Target; the future growth of the businesses of the Company and the Target and the possibility that integration following the acquisition may be more difficult than expected; the risk that the Company’s collaborations with the Target will not be successful, and other risk factors detailed in the Company’s filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). You are urged to carefully review and consider any cautionary statements and other disclosures, including the statements made under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Registration Statement on Form F-1 and other reports and documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
