Since forward-looking statements and information address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. Such factors may include the Company not being able to complete its capital raising activities, the Company and/or NAH not being able to complete its planned capital and drilling programs, the Company not being able to obtain required regulatory and/or governmental approvals for any desired operational activities, operating and capital costs, royalty rates, changes in regulatory policy and compliance requirements, changes in industry conditions, changes in economic conditions in and around target market areas, market and consumer demand for helium, labour and/or equipment shortages, delays or changes in plans with respect to planned capital expenditures, fluctuations in input prices, fluctuations in relationships with potential partners, ability to secure relationships with certain targeted parties, changes in strategy and offerings of competitors, number of competitors in the Company's target markets, fluctuations in business development and supply chain, fluctuations in market prices for helium, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, fluctuations in interest rates, reliance on industry and/or retail partners and other factors that may be beyond the Company's control. Should one or more of the above noted risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any underlying assumptions provide incorrect or materially differ, actual results, performance or achievements of the Company or industry results, may vary materially from those described in this corporate presentation.
