Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “assumes,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “seeks,” “targets,” or other similar expressions. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, statements about the adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset balances, future financial and operating results, any need to restate financial statements and related matters, the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts.
Forward-looking statements are subject to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors, and our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from future results, performance or achievements expressed in these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current beliefs, intentions and expectations and are not guarantees or indicative of future performance, nor should any conclusions be drawn or assumptions be made as to the potential outcome of any strategic initiatives we pursue. Risks and uncertainties relating to the Restatement due to the error in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets include: the timing of and definitive findings regarding the Company’s assessment of the error in its valuation allowance, including the expected materiality of the adjustments; whether any additional accounting errors or other issues are identified; reactions from the Company’s creditors, stockholders, or business partners; potential delays in the preparation of restated financial statements; our ability to remediate control deficiencies and material weaknesses, and the timing and expense of such remediation; our ability to successfully negotiate and obtain any necessary waivers, amendments and / or forbearances (including any extensions of the foregoing) to credit and financing arrangements and the impact on our business should we fail to obtain such waivers, amendments and / or forbearances; and the impact and result of any litigation or regulatory inquiries or investigations related to the findings of the Company’s assessment or the Company’s Restatement. Important assumptions and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those factors, risks and uncertainties described above and in more detail under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s annual and quarterly reports filed with the SEC.
The above factors, risks and uncertainties are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect actual results and may be beyond the Company’s control. New factors, risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore any of these statements included herein may prove to be inaccurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or our objectives and plans will be achieved. The Company makes no commitment to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances after the date any such statement is made, except as otherwise required under the federal securities laws. If the Company were in any particular instance to update or correct a forward-looking statement, investors and others should not conclude that the Company would make additional updates or corrections thereafter except as otherwise required under the federal securities laws.
