Important Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. These statements relate to, among other things, the expected timing of the Reverse Share Split and the anticipated benefits to be achieved from the Reverse Share Split. These forward-looking statements are based on Cyren's current expectations, estimates and projections about its business and industry, management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by Cyren, all of which are subject to change. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as, "future", "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "intend," "estimate," "continue," or similar expressions or the negative of those terms or expressions. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to vary materially from those expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following: Cyren's ability to secure capital from equity and debt financings in light of limitations under its effective registration statement on Form S-3, the price range of its ordinary shares and conditions in the financial markets, and the risk that such financings may dilute its shareholders or restrict its business; Cyren's ability to regain compliance with continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, its related ability to raise the market price of its ordinary shares sufficiently through a reverse share split to cure its Nasdaq listing deficiency, and the risk that its ordinary shares will be delisted if it regains compliance; the risk of decreased liquidity in the market for Cyren's ordinary shares and a reduced market capitalization following the Reverse Share Split, and the risk of dilution following the increase in authorized share capital; Cyren's ability to be profitable and continue as a going concern; Cyren's exploration of strategic or financial alternatives may not result in any transaction or alternative that enhances value; and Cyren's ability to continue to develop solutions to address customer needs effectively, including anticipated sales levels of both new and legacy products..
