The information set forth in this Item 7.01 (including Exhibit 99.1) is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Preliminary Estimates

The estimated results in the Investor Presentation represent the Company’s preliminary estimates of certain financial results for the year ended December 31, 2022, based on currently available information. The Company has not yet finalized its results for this period and its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 are not currently available. The Company’s actual results remain subject to the completion of the quarter-end closing process as well as a review by management and the Company’s board of directors, including the audit committee. While carrying out such procedures, the Company may identify items that require it to make adjustments to the preliminary estimates of its results set forth therein. As a result, the Company’s actual results could be different from those set forth therein and the differences could be material. Therefore, a reader should not place undue reliance on these preliminary estimates of the Company’s results. The preliminary estimates of the Company’s results included therein have been prepared by, and are the responsibility of, the Company’s management. The Company’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed or compiled such preliminary estimates of the Company’s results. The preliminary estimates of certain financial results presented therein should not be considered a substitute for the information to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 once it becomes available.
