The financial information referenced in this Presentation has not been audited and does not contain sufficient detail to allow a full understanding of the results of the Group. The information in this Presentation is not intended for distribution to, or use by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to local law or regulation. It is the responsibility of any person publishing or communicating the contents of this document or communication, or any part thereof, to ensure compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

These forward-looking statements include matters that are not facts. They may appear in a number of places throughout this Presentation and include statements regarding the Directors' intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, amongst other things, the Group's results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and the industries in which the Group operates. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events, and depend on circumstances, that may or may not occur in the future. A number of factors could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: conditions in the public markets; the market position of the Group; the earnings, financial position, cash flows, return on capital and operating margins of the Group; the anticipated investments and capital expenditures of the Group; changing business or other market conditions; changes in political or tax regimes, exchange rates and clients; changes in governmental policies, and general economic conditions.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Presentation, based on past trends or activities, should not be taken as a representation that such trends or activities will continue in the future. Subject to any requirement under the Aim Rules and UK MAR, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Readers should therefore not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Presentation.
