PRELIMINARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that
are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”,
“believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “estimate”, “target”,
“project”, “intend”, “foresee” and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements
regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement the
strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing
plans, budgets, working capital needs and sources of liquidity. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future.
Forward-looking
statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and
assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements
include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the expansion of product offerings geographically or through new
marketing applications, the timing and cost of planned capital expenditures, competitive conditions and general economic conditions.
These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. In addition, even if our actual results
are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, those results may not be indicative
of results or developments in subsequent periods.
Except
as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we are under no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after
we file this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise. Investors, potential
investors and other readers are urged to consider the above-mentioned factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements
and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected
in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results or performance.
For
a more detailed discussion of some of the foregoing risks and uncertainties, see Item 1A — “Risk Factors” in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and Item 1A — “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023, as well as other reports and registration statements filed by us with the SEC. These
factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read with other cautionary statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
and our other public filings. For more information about us and the announcements we make from time to time, visit our Internet website
