Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words or phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "estimates", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements and information.
Examples of such statements include: (A) the financial forecast of the Company; (B) the intention to grow the business and operations of the Company; (C) anticipated timing for the availability of the Company’s products to market and expected sale prices; (D) expected growth in the number of users of medical and recreational marijuana anticipated; and (E) the expansion of the Company’s business into other revenue streams.
