Forward-looking statements
This presentation, and other statements that BlackRock may make, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act, with respect to BlackRock's future financial or business performance, strategies or expectations. Forward-
looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as "trend," "potential," "opportunity," "pipeline," "believe," "comfortable,"
"expect," "anticipate," "current," "intention," "estimate," "position," "assume," "outlook," "continue," "remain," "maintain," "sustain," "seek,"
"achieve," and similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," "may" and similar expressions.
BlackRock cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and BlackRock assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update
forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements and future results could
differ materially from historical performance.
In addition to risk factors previously disclosed in BlackRock's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports and those identified
elsewhere, in this presentation, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking
statements or historical performance: (1) the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and strategies; (2) changes and
volatility in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment, foreign exchange rates or financial and capital markets,
which could result in changes in demand for products or services or in the value of assets under management ("AUM"); (3) the relative and
absolute investment performance of BlackRock's investment products; (4) the impact of increased competition; (5) the impact of future
acquisitions or divestitures; (6) the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings; (7) the extent and timing of any share repurchases; (8) the
impact, extent and timing of technological changes and the adequacy of intellectual property, information and cyber security protection; (9) the
impact of legislative and regulatory actions and reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and
regulatory, supervisory or enforcement actions of government agencies relating to BlackRock or The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
("PNC"); (10) terrorist activities, international hostilities and natural disasters, which may adversely affect the general economy, domestic and
local financial and capital markets, specific industries or BlackRock; (11) the ability to attract and retain highly talented professionals; (12)
fluctuations in the carrying value of BlackRock's economic investments; (13) the impact of changes to tax legislation, including income, payroll
and transaction taxes, and taxation on products or transactions, which could affect the value proposition to clients and, generally, the tax
position of the Company; (14) BlackRock's success in maintaining the distribution of its products; (15) the impact of BlackRock electing to
provide support to its products from time to time and any potential liabilities related to securities lending or other indemnification obligations; and
(16) the impact of problems at other financial institutions or the failure or negative performance of products at other financial institutions.
BlackRock's Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and BlackRock's subsequent filings with the SEC, accessible on
the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on Black Rock's website at www.blackrock.com, discuss these factors in more detail and identify
additional factors that can affect forward-looking statements.
