Disclaimer and cautionary statement

The information contained in the Annual Report and in any link to our website indicated herein is not for use within any country or jurisdiction or by any persons where such use would constitute a violation of law. If this applies to you, you are not authorized to access or use any such information.

The Annual Report contains certain “forward-looking statements” that are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about us and our industry. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words “may”, “will”, “should”, “continue”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “project”, “plan”, “will likely continue”, “will likely result”, or words or phrases with similar meaning. The sustainability-related information in this Annual Report also contains certain forward-looking statements based on management’s current assumptions and expectations such as targets, commitments, actions and initiatives. Undue reliance should not be placed on any such forward-looking statements because, by their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, economic, competitive, governmental, technological and climate-related factors outside of the control of SIG Group AG (“SIG”, the “Company” or the “Group”), that may cause SIG’s business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements (or from past results). For any factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report, please see our offering circular for the issue of notes in June 2020.

SIG undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any of these forward-looking statements, whether to reflect new information, future events or circumstances or otherwise. It should further be noted that past performance is not a guide to future performance. Persons requiring advice should consult an independent adviser.

The declaration and payment by the Company of any future dividends and the amounts of any such dividends will depend upon SIG’s ability to maintain its credit rating, its investments, results, financial condition, future prospects, profits being available for distribution, consideration of certain covenants under the terms of outstanding indebtedness and any other factors deemed by the Directors to be relevant at the time, subject always to the requirements of applicable laws.

The information contained in the Annual Report is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of offers to purchase or subscribe for securities. The Annual Report is not a prospectus within the meaning of the Swiss Financial Services Act nor a prospectus under any other applicable laws.
