Forward
Looking Statements
Statements
in this report regarding Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc.
(the “Company”) and/or its subsidiaries Prime EFS LLC
(“Prime EFS”) and Shypdirect LLC (“Shypdirect”) that
are not historical facts are forward-looking statements and are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future
events or results to differ materially from such statements. Any
such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to,
financial guidance, are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not
directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. In some cases,
you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,”
“will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,”
“anticipates,” “intend,” “goal,” “seek,” “strategy,” “future,”
“likely,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,”
“predicts,” “potential,” or the negative of those terms, and
similar expressions and comparable terminology. These include, but
are not limited to, statements relating to future events or our
future financial and operating results, plans, objectives,
expectations and intentions. Although we believe that the
expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are
reasonable, these expectations may not be achieved. Forward-looking
statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future
performance. Instead, they represent our intentions, plans,
expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are
subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
outside of our control that could cause our actual results,
performance or achievement to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In
addition to the risks described above, these risks and
uncertainties include: our ability to successfully execute our
business strategies, including integration of acquisitions and the
future acquisition of other businesses to grow our Company;
customers’ cancellation on short notice of master service
agreements from which we derive a significant portion of our
revenue or our failure to renew such master service agreements on
favorable terms or at all; our ability to attract and retain key
personnel and skilled labor to meet the requirements of our
labor-intensive business or labor difficulties which could have an
effect on our ability to bid for and successfully complete
contracts; the ultimate geographic spread, duration and severity of
the coronavirus outbreak and the effectiveness of actions taken, or
actions that may be taken, by governmental authorities to contain
the outbreak or ameliorate its effects; our failure to compete
effectively in our highly competitive industry, which could reduce
the number of new contracts awarded to us or adversely affect our
market share and harm our financial performance; our ability to
adopt and master new technologies and adjust certain fixed costs
and expenses to adapt to our industry’s and customers’ evolving
demands; our history of losses, deficiency in working capital and a
stockholders’ deficit and our inability to achieve sustained
profitability; material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting and our ability to maintain effective controls
over financial reporting in the future; our substantial
indebtedness, which could adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations and our ability to meet our
payment obligations; the impact of new or changed laws, regulations
or other industry standards that could adversely affect our ability
to conduct our business; and changes in general market, economic,
social and political conditions in the United States and global
economies or financial markets, including those resulting from
natural or man-made disasters.
These
forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions
only as of the date of this report and, except as required by law,
we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise after the date of this report. Given
these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements and should consider various factors,
including the risks described, among other places, in our most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q, as well as any amendments thereto, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
