DISCLAIMER
Included in this Investor Presentation is certain forward-looking information related to iFabric Corp. (the “Company”), as such term is defined under applicable Canadian securities laws. This information relates to future events or future performance and reflects management's expectations and assumptions regarding the growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities of the Company. Such forward-looking information reflects management's current beliefs and is based on information currently available to management of the Company and a number of assumptions that management believed were reasonable on the day such forward-looking information was presented. Refer, in particular, to the relevant sections of the Investor Presentation, the Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference therein, for a discussion of certain assumptions management has made in presenting forward-looking information, which sections are incorporated by reference therein. In some cases, forward-looking information can be identified by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "intend", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential", "continue" or the negative or grammatical variations of these terms or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In particular, information regarding the Company's future operating results and economic performance is forward-looking information. A number of factors could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events and results discussed in the forward-looking information. See "Risk Factors" in the Preliminary Prospectus.
Forward-looking information relates to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and other uncertain events. Forward-looking information, by its nature, is based on assumptions, including those described below, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking information. Any forecasts or forward-looking predictions or statements cannot be relied upon due to, among other things, changing external events and general uncertainties of the business. Results indicated in forward-looking information may differ materially from actual results for a number of reasons, including without limitation: completion of the Offering; the intended use of proceeds from the Offering; expectations regarding future revenues, earnings, capital expenditures and operating and other costs; business strategy and objectives; market trends; the sufficiency of cash and working capital for future operating activities; expectations for other economic, business, regulatory and/or competitive factors related to the Company or the industries it competes in generally; anticipated production capacity; and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.
Investors are cautioned that forward-looking information is not based on historical facts but instead is based on reasonable assumptions and estimates of management of the Company at the time they were made and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Such factors include, among others, risks relating to competition; general economic conditions and consumer spending; reliance on key licensing and distribution agreements; economic dependence on key customers; dependence on key personnel; rapid technological advancements in the industry; the Company's ability to maintain proprietary protection of its intellectual property; future changes in government regulation, dependence on customer adoption; and the expected or potential impact of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, as well as the risk factors described under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Preliminary Prospectus. Prospective purchasers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which may have been used. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information and statements, including the documents incorporated herein by reference, as statements containing forward-looking information involve significant risks and uncertainties and should not be read as guarantees of future results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities. The forward-looking information and statements contained herein are presented for the purposes of assisting prospective purchasers in understanding the Company's expected financial and operating performance and the Company's plans and objectives and may not be appropriate for other purposes.
All forward-looking information in this Investor Presentation, the Preliminary Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into the Preliminary Prospectus, is qualified by these cautionary statements. The forwardlooking information is made only as of the date that such information is made, and is subject to change after such date. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities regulations.
An investment in the Units (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk, and should only be made by persons who can afford the total loss of their investment. Investors should carefully consider the risk factors described in the Preliminary Prospectus before purchasing the Units. Prospective investors are advised to consult their legal counsel and other professional advisors in order to assess income tax, legal and other aspects of the investment. See "Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" in the Preliminary Prospectus.
Prospective purchasers should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Prospectus. The Company and the Underwriters (as defined in the Prospectus) have not authorized anyone to provide prospective purchasers with information different from that contained or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Prospectus. The Underwriters are offering to sell and seeking offers to buy the Units only in jurisdictions where, and to persons to whom, offers and sales are lawfully permitted. Prospective purchasers should not assume that the information contained in the Preliminary Prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the cover page of the Preliminary Prospectus.
Prospective purchasers are advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of Canadian and U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular circumstances, as well as any other provincial, state, foreign and other tax consequences of acquiring, holding or disposing of the Units, including the Canadian federal income tax consequences applicable to a foreign controlled Canadian corporation that acquires the Units.
This Investor Presentation is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and must be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Preliminary Prospectus. A prospective investor is not entitled to rely on parts of the information contained in this presentation to the exclusion of others.
