This document contains certain forward looking statements with respect to the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and business, and our strategy,

plans and objectives for the Group. These statements include, without limitation, those that express forecasts, expectations and projections, such as forecasts,

expectations and projections in relation to new products and services, the potential for growth of free-to-air and pay television, fixed line telephony, broadband and

Multiscreen and other services penetration, revenue, administration costs and other costs, advertising growth, churn, profit, cash flow, products and our broadband

network footprint, content, wholesale, marketing, synergies and integration, and capital expenditure.

These statements (and all other forward-looking statements contained in this document) are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks,

uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the Group's control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those

expressed or implied or forecast in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the fact that the Group operates in a highly

competitive environment and faces competition from a broad range of organisations, the effects of laws and government regulation upon the Group's activities, the

fact that the Group’s business is based on a subscription model and its future success relies on building long-term relationships with its customers, its reliance on a

complex technical infrastructure which is subject to risk of failure, change and development, failure of key suppliers, the Group’s exposure to financial market risks, the

fact that the Group must protect its customer and corporate data and prevent breaches of security, risks inherent in the implementation of large-scale capital

expenditure projects, the fact that the Group relies on intellectual property and proprietary rights which may not be adequately protected under current laws or

which may be subject to unauthorised use and the fact that people at Sky are critical to the Group’s ability to meet the needs of its customers and achieve its goals

as a business.

Information on the significant risks and uncertainties is provided in the “Principal risks and uncertainties” section of Sky’s Annual Report for the full year ended 30

June 2016. Copies of the Annual Report are available from the Sky plc web page at www.sky.com/corporate and in hard copy from the Company Secretary, Sky plc,
