The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions of the 1995 Act. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. As forward-looking statements, these statements involve important risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by the Company or on its behalf. Factors that might cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations, many of which may be more likely to impact the Company as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
