Forward-Looking Statements

 

Unless otherwise indicated or required by the context the terms “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to PowerFleet, Inc.

 

This report and any exhibits to this report may contain “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding our business, products and conflict minerals efforts, including steps we intend to take to mitigate the risk that conflict minerals in our products benefit armed groups in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country. The words “anticipate,” believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements in this report. Additionally, statements concerning future matters that are not historical are forward-looking statements. Although forward-looking statements in this report reflect our good faith judgment, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known to us. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risk and uncertainties, and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in or anticipated by forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results or outcomes include without limitation: the risk that information reported to us by our suppliers from which we directly procure finished goods, components, materials and/or services for our products (direct suppliers), or industry information used by us, may be inaccurate; the risk that smelters or refiners (processing facilities) may not participate in the Conflict Free Smelter Program, which is a voluntary initiative in which independent third parties audit processing facilities’ procurement and processing activities and determine if the processing facilities maintain sufficient documentation to reasonably demonstrate conflict-free sourcing; as well as risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as well as in our Current Reports on Form 8-K. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report. Throughout this report, whenever a reference is made to our website, such reference does not incorporate information from the website by reference into this report unless specifically identified as such.
