This prospectus contains certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any and all statements contained in this prospectus that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. Terms such as “may,” “might,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “project,” “estimate,” “pro-forma,” “predict,” “potential,” “strategy,” “anticipate,” “attempt,” “develop,” “plan,” “help,” “believe,” “continue,” “intend,” “expect,” “future” and terms of similar import (including the negative of any of the foregoing) may be intended to identify forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking statements may contain one or more of these identifying terms. Those statements appear in this prospectus, and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our Company and management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in “Risk Factors” above.
Forward-looking statements in this prospectus may include, without limitation, statements regarding:
| (i) | the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans or objectives relating to the development of our surgical robotic systems, |
| (ii) | the timing or likelihood of regulatory filing, approvals and required licenses for our surgical robotic systems; |
| (iii) | our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights and enforce such rights to avoid violation of the intellectual property rights of others; |
| (iv) | the timing, costs and other aspects of the commercial launch of our surgical robotic systems; |
| (v) | our estimates regarding the market opportunity, clinical utility, potential advantages and market acceptance of our surgical robotic systems; |
| (vi) | the impact of government laws and regulations; |
| (vii) | the potential effect U.S. tariff policies may have on our ability to import our surgical robotic systems and related devices into the U.S., once approval to market has been obtained; |
| (viii) | our ability to recruit and retain qualified research and development personnel; |
| (ix) | difficulties in maintaining commercial scale manufacturing capacity and capability and our ability to generate growth; |
| (x) | uncertainty in industry demand; |
| (xi) | general economic conditions and market conditions in our industry; |
| (xii) | future sales of large blocks of our securities, which may adversely impact our share price; |
| (xiii) | the depth of the trading market in our securities; |
| (xiv) | a projection of income (including income/loss), earnings (including earnings/loss) per share, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial items; and |
| (xv) | our future financial performance, including any such statement contained in a discussion and analysis of financial condition by management or in the results of operations included pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. |
These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the U.S. and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statement. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date the statement is made, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and you are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.
