All statements other than statements of historical facts are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. Words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "may," "could," "would," "might," "will" and variations of these words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements or information that refer to expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, performance or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements, and are based on our current expectations, forecasts and projections about the operating environment, economies and markets in which we operate. Projected financial information with respect to the Enlarged Group, including revenue, A-EBITDA, cloud revenue, cost synergies and net debt/A-EBITDA, constitutes forward-looking statements and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results and is for illustrative purposes only. Forward-looking statements reflect our current estimates, beliefs and assumptions, which are based on management's perception of historic trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Our estimates, beliefs and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies regarding future events and, as such, are subject to change. We can give no assurance that such estimates, beliefs and assumptions will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, such as those relating to the inability to obtain required regulatory approvals for the proposed acquisition by us (through our wholly-owned subsidiary) (the Proposed Acquisition), the timing of obtaining such approvals and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect, following completion of the Proposed Acquisition (if completed), the enlarged group (the Enlarged Group) or the expected benefits of the Proposed Acquisition (including as noted in any forward-looking financial information), the inability to obtain certain shareholder approvals of the Proposed Acquisition, the risk that a condition to closing of the Proposed Acquisition may not be satisfied on a timely basis or at all, the failure of the Proposed Acquisition to close for any other reason, uncertainties as to access to available financing (including refinancing of debt) on a timely basis and on reasonable terms, the expected effects of the Proposed Acquisition, on us, the acquired company and, following completion of the Proposed Acquisition (if completed), the Enlarged Group, the expected timing and scope of the Proposed Acquisition, all statements regarding our (and the Enlarged Group's) expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, dividends, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management, the timing impact and other uncertainties of future or planned acquisitions or disposals or offers, the inability of the Enlarged Group to realize successfully any anticipated synergy benefits when the Proposed Acquisition is implemented (including changes to the board and/or employee composition of the Enlarged Group), our inability to integrate successfully the acquired company's operations and programs when the Proposed Acquisition (if completed) is implemented, the Enlarged Group incurring and/or experiencing unanticipated costs and/or delays (including IT system failures, cyber-crime, fraud and pension scheme liabilities), or difficulties relating to the Proposed Acquisition when the Proposed Acquisition (if completed) is implemented, actual and potential risks and uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of COVID-19, the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and issues relating to the resurgence of COVID-19 and/or new strains or variants of COVID-19, including actions that have been and may be taken by governmental authorities to contain COVID-19 or to treat its impact, including the availability, effectiveness and use of treatments and vaccines, and the effect on the global economy and financial markets as well as the potential adverse effect on our business, operations, and financial performance, the impact of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on our business and the Enlarged Group, including our decision to cease all direct business in Russia and Belarus and with known Russian-owned companies, as well as our ability to develop, protect and maintain our intellectual property and proprietary technology and to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. We rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish and maintain our proprietary rights, which are important to our success. From time to time, we may also enforce our intellectual property rights through litigation in line with our strategic and business objectives. The actual results that we achieve may differ materially from any forward-looking statements, which reflect management's current expectations and projections about future results only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements. For additional information with respect to risks and other factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects, including these forward-looking statements, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other securities filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and other securities regulators. For these reasons, we caution you not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements.
