The securities described in this press release have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws of the United States. The Company does not intend to register any part of the offering in the United States or to offer the securities to the public in the United States.
Any offering of the securities referred to in this communication will be made by way of an EU growth prospectus. This communication does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 (the "Prospectus Regulation"). Investors should not invest in the securities described in this communication on the basis of any information other than that contained in the aforementioned prospectus.
In the EEA Member States, other than Sweden, Norway and Finland, this communication is only intended for and addressed to qualified investors within the Member State in the sense of the Prospectus Regulation, i.e. only to investors who may be the recipients of any offer without a prospectus being filed in the Member State.
Issues discussed in this press release may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate to historical facts and events and statements that relate to the future and include, for example, words such as "believes", "estimates", "expects", "anticipates", "assumes", "anticipates", "intends", "may", "will", "will", "should", "estimates", "believes", "may", "plans", "continues", "potential", "estimates", "forecasts", "as far as is known" or similar expressions. In particular, these statements relate to future results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, plans and expectations for the Company's business and management, future growth and profitability and general economic and regulatory environment and other factors affecting the Company, many of which in turn are based on additional assumptions, such as that no changes in existing policies, legal, tax, market or economic conditions or in applicable laws occur (including, but not limited to, accounting principles, accounting methods and tax policies), which individually or in combination could have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or its ability to conduct its business. Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, they are inherently subject to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors that are difficult or impossible to predict and that may be beyond the Company's control. Such risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors could cause actual events to differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, potential investors should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking information contained herein, and potential investors are urged to read those parts of the EU growth prospectus that include a more detailed description of factors that may affect the Company's business and the market in which the Company operates.
