In addition, any statement that may be made concerning future financial performance (including revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future Company action, is also a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are inherently subject to, among other things, risks,

uncertainties and assumptions about the Company, economic factors and the insurance industry generally.

Other than as specifically required by applicable law, the Company has no specific intention to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

This release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Terms by which non-GAAP financial measures are identified include but are not limited to "earnings or sales on a constant currency basis", "earnings adjusted for the negative impact of currency”, “adjusted net income”, “earnings before adjustments”, “net income before adjustments” and other similar expressions.
