Forward-looking Statements
This announcement includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be,
'forward-looking statements'. These forward-looking statements can be identified
by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms 'believes',
'estimates', 'plans', 'projects', 'anticipates', 'expects', 'intends', 'may',
'will', or 'should' or, in each case, their negative or other variations or
comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, goals,
future events or intentions. These forward-looking statements include matters
that are not historical facts or are statements regarding the Group's
intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, the
Group's results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects,
growth, strategies, and the industries in which the Group operates.
Forward-looking statements are based on current plans, estimates and
projections, and therefore too much reliance should not be placed upon them.
Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which are
difficult to predict and generally beyond the Group's control. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to
future events and circumstances. The Group cautions you that forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and that if risks and
uncertainties materialise, or if the assumptions underlying any of these
statements prove incorrect, the Group's actual results of operations, financial
condition and liquidity and the development of the industry in which the Group
operates may materially differ from those made in, or suggested by, the
forward-looking statements contained in this announcement. In addition, even if
the Group's results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and the
development of the industry in which the Group operates are consistent with the
forward-looking statements contained in this announcement, those results or
developments may not be indicative of results or developments in future periods.
A number of factors could cause results and developments to differ materially
from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements including,
without limitation, general economic and business conditions, industry trends,
competition, commodity prices, changes in regulation, currency fluctuations,
changes in business strategy, political and economic uncertainty. Subject to the
requirements of the Prospectus Rules, the Disclosure and Transparency Rules and
the Listing Rules or any applicable law or regulation, the Group expressly
disclaims any obligation or undertaking publicly to review or confirm analysts
expectations or estimates or to release publicly any updates or revisions to any
forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any changes in the
Group's expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or
circumstances on which any such statement is based.
