This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for thethree months ended March 31, 2026, including Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion

and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (the “MD&A”), contains forward-looking statements within the “safe harbor”

provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements in this report include, but are not limited to,

statements about our expectations, objectives, anticipations, plans, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future.

Forward-looking statements represent our current expectations about future events, are based on assumptions, and involve risks and

uncertainties. If the risks or uncertainties occur or the assumptions prove incorrect, then our results may differ materially from those set forth

or implied by the forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events.

Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “continue,” “could,”

“may,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are also intended to identify such forward-

looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict;

therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Readers are directed to

risks and uncertainties identified under Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in this report for factors that may cause actual results

to be different from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or

update publicly any forward-looking statement for any reason.
