These forward-looking statements cover, among other things, any projections or expectations regarding U.S. Bancorp’s acquisition of BTIG, LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “BTIG”) described herein, U.S. Bancorp’s future revenues, expenses, earnings, capital expenditures, deposits or stock price, as well as the assumptions on which such expectations are based. Forward-looking statements often use words such as “anticipates,” “targets,” “expects,” “hopes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “goals,” “believes,” “continue” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would” and “could.”
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in forward-looking statements, including the following risks and uncertainties: (1) the risk that the cost savings, any revenue synergies and other anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized or may take longer than anticipated to be realized, (2) the possibility that the acquisition, including the integration of BTIG, may be more costly or difficult to complete than anticipated, (3) the dilution caused by U.S. Bancorp’s issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the acquisition, and (4) other factors that may affect future results of U.S. Bancorp, including changes in asset quality and credit risk, the inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth, changes in interest rates and capital markets, inflation, customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices, the impact, extent and timing of technological changes, capital management activities, litigation, and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms.
For discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” of U.S. Bancorp’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
