  • Company’s ability to implement information technology systems; and;
  • other factors or trends affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and the ones discussed under the section Risk Factors; and

Investors should understand that the above-mentioned factors, in addition to others discussed in this investor relations website, among others, could affect Smiles’ future results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements made in this website or files posted on it.

Forward-looking statements also include information concerning the Company’s possible or assumed future results of operations shown under several sections in this investor relations website, as well as statements preceded by, followed by, or that include the words ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘continues,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘anticipates,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are no guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions because they relate to future events and therefore depend on circumstances that may or may not occur. Smiles’ future business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, strategies, market share and shareholder values may differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict.

Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
