This communication includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements related to the Company, H&E and the acquisition of H&E by the Company that involve substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Forward-looking statements in this communication include, among other things, statements about the potential benefits of the transaction, the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, the financial condition, results of operations and business of each of the Company and H&E, and expected valuation and re-rating opportunities for the combined company. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts,” “looks,” and future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could” or “may,” as well as variations of such words or similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions and apply only as of the date of this communication. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that our expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved or that the completion and anticipated benefits of the transaction can be guaranteed, and actual results may differ materially from those projected. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those suggested by our forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, (i) the Company’s ability to implement its plans, forecasts and other expectations with respect to H&E’s business after the completion of the transaction and realized expected synergies; (ii) the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, including the possibility that the expected benefits from the transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; (iii) problems may arise in successfully integrating the businesses of the Company and H&E, including, without limitation, problems associated with the potential loss of any key employees, customers, suppliers and other counterparties of H&E; (iv) the transaction may involve unexpected costs, including, without limitation, the exposure to any unrecorded liabilities or unidentified issues during the due diligence investigation of H&E or that are not covered by insurance, as well as potential unfavorable accounting treatment and unexpected increases in taxes; (v) the Company’s business may suffer as a result of uncertainty surrounding the transaction, including any adverse effects on our ability to maintain relationships with customers, employees and suppliers; (vi) any negative effects of the announcement of the transaction or the financing thereof on the market price of the Company common stock or other securities; (vii) the industry may be subject to future risks including those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section in the Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and in the other filings with the
