Cautionary Statement For The Purpose Of The “Safe Harbor” Provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation include statements about future financial and operating results and the proposed Pixelworks/Genesis merger. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, and are based upon assumptions as to future events that may not prove accurate. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed herein. For example, if either of the companies do not receive required stockholder or governmental approvals or fail to satisfy other conditions to closing, the transaction will not be consummated. In any forward-looking statement in which Pixelworks or Genesis expresses an expectation or belief as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement or expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the risk that the Pixelworks and Genesis businesses will not be integrated successfully; costs related to the proposed merger; failure of the Pixelworks or Genesis stockholders to approve the proposed merger; and other economic, business, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting Pixelworks’ and Genesis’s businesses generally as set forth in Pixelworks’ and Genesis’s filings with the SEC, including their Annual Reports on Form 10-K for their respective most recent fiscal years, particularly in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section, their most recent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and their Current Reports on Form 8-K. Pixelworks and Genesis are under no obligation to (and expressly disclaim any such obligation to) update or alter their forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
