CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTOR SUMMARY
Certain statements in this Annual Report may constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Cellebrite, or its management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “will,” “appear,” “approximate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “foresee,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions (or the negative version of such words or expressions) may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this Annual Report may include, for example, statements about Cellebrite’s strategic and business plans, relationships or outlook, the impact of trends on and interest in its business, intellectual property or product, and its future results. The statements we make regarding the following matters are forward-looking by their nature.
The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are only predictions based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These important factors include, among others, the items in the following list, which also summarizes some of our most principal risks:
risks associated with our ability to keep pace with technological advances and challenges and evolving industry standards, to adapt to changing market potential within our markets and to successfully launch new solutions and add-ons that meet or exceed customer needs;
risks associated with our material dependence on the acceptance of our solutions by domestic and international law enforcement and government agencies;
risks associated with real or perceived errors, failures, defects or bugs in our DI solutions;
risks associated with our failure to maintain the productivity of sales and marketing personnel, including relating to hiring, integrating and retaining personnel;
risks due to intense competition in all of our markets, including risks associated with pricing pressures from and loss of market share to competitors with greater resources than we have and increasing competition as a result of consolidation in the industry;
risks associated with the misuse of our solutions by our customers which may achieve suboptimal results or be perceived as incompatible with human rights;
risks relating to our ability to properly manage our growth as a business, and execute new offerings, developments and strategic opportunities, including joint ventures, partnerships and acquisitions;

risks associated with political and reputational factors related to our business or operations, such as negative publicity, including with respect to the nature of our solutions;
risks that our customers may delay or terminate contracts, or are unable to honor contractual commitments or payment obligations due to liquidity issues or other challenges in their budgets and business;
risks related to the difficulty in discerning revenue declines from our operating results due to the way in which we recognize revenue;
risks associated with the significant majority of our revenue coming from government customers around the world and associated procurement processes, budgeting cycles and appropriations, early termination, potential audits, investigations, civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions;
risks associated with the weakening of general economic conditions, including on our private sector customers;
risks that our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to protect our business or assets or that others may make claims on our intellectual property, claim infringement on their intellectual property rights, or claim a violation of their license rights, including relative to free or open-source-software components we may use;
risks associated with the mishandling or perceived mishandling of sensitive or confidential information, including personal information;

risks associated with complex and changing regulatory environments relating to our operations, the products and services we offer, and/or the use of our solutions by our customers, including with respect to applicable classification and confidentiality restrictions, AI and data privacy and protection;
risks associated with different corporate governance requirements applicable to Israeli companies and risks associated with being a foreign private issuer;
risks associated with the fact that we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” and will be required to comply with certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We can no longer take advantage of the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies;
risks associated with market volatility in the price of our shares based on our performance or factors and risks associated with general economic and market conditions;

uncertainties regarding the impact of changes in macroeconomic and/or global conditions, including as a result of slowdowns, recessions, economic instability, political unrest, or outbreaks of disease, as well as the resulting impact on information technology spending and government budgets, on our business;
risks associated with our failure to comply with anti-corruption, trade compliance, anti-money-laundering and economic sanctions laws and regulations; and
risks relating to the adequacy of our existing systems, processes, policies, procedures, internal controls, and personnel for our current and future operations and reporting needs.
Some of these factors are discussed in more detail in this Annual Report, including under “Part I, Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors,” “Part I, Item 4. Information on the Company” and “Part I, Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.”
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or will occur. All forward-looking statements in this Annual Report speak as of the date of those statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Annual Report, to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.
