SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Our disclosure and analysis in this press release, which do not present historical information, contain “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements convey our
current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements because they do not relate strictly to
historical or current facts. They use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and
other words and terms of similar meaning. They also appear in any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In
particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance of our products, expenses, the outcome of any
legal proceedings, and financial results. Although we believe that we are basing our expectations and beliefs on reasonable
assumptions within the bounds of what we currently know about our business and operations, the economy, the effects of the Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act, and other conditions, there can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ materially from what we
expect or believe. Therefore, you should proceed with caution in relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are
neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance.
Forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors, some of which
are listed below, that are difficult to predict and could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from any future
results or outcomes expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause our actual
results to differ from our expectations or beliefs include a decline in the securities markets that adversely affect our assets
under management, negative performance of our products, the failure to perform as required under our investment management
agreements, a general downturn in the economy that negatively impacts our operations, and the ongoing impacts of the Tax Cuts and
Jobs Act with respect to tax rates and the non-deductibility of certain portions of NEO compensation. We also direct your attention
to the more specific discussions of these and other risks, uncertainties and other important factors contained in our Form 10-K and
other public filings. Other factors that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not
possible for us to predict all of them. We do not undertake to update publicly any forward-looking statements if we subsequently
learn that we are unlikely to achieve our expectations whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise,
except as may be required by law.
