The words “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate," "predict" and similar expressions, and the negatives thereof, often identify forward-looking statements, which are not limited to historical facts. Forward-looking statements include, among other things: future guidance; projected annual revenues resulting from new or existing products or services; dividends; statements, express or implied, concerning future operating results, the ability to generate premium, income or cash flow; and Old Republic's business and growth strategies and expected growth and performance. Although Old Republic believes these statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they involve risks and uncertainties relating to operations, markets and the business environment generally. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materializes, or underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation provides information which includes certain financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

Management uses non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items in order to better assess operating performance and help investors compare results with our previous performance. Old Republic's non-GAAP information is not necessarily comparable to the non-GAAP information used by other companies. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other data prepared in accordance with GAAP as a measure of Old Republic's profitability or financial position.
