Our expectations, beliefs, and projections are expressed in good faith, and we believe that there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that these expectations, beliefs, and projections will occur or be achieved.

Risk Factors

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Site, including risks related to economic downturns, substantial competition and rising operating costs; the impacts from global conflicts, including economic volatility and the impacts of export controls and other economic sanctions; risks related to our investment activities, including the impact of the use of leverage through options, short sales, swaps, forwards and other derivative instruments; declines in the fair value of our investments, losses in the private funds managed by the Company's operating subsidiaries; loss of key employees; risks related to short sellers and associated litigation and regulatory inquiries; risks related to our controlling stockholder; supply chain issues; inflation, including increased costs of raw materials and shipping, labor shortages and workforce availability. There may be other factors not presently known to us or which we currently consider to be immaterial that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Site.

The Company only references the investor engagement campaigns conducted by BHG for informational purposes, given they were all overseen, managed, and carried out under the leadership of the Company's key principal, Mr. Parker.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date they are made and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Site. Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date such statements are made, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
