Forward Looking Statements
This presentation may contain forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition and prospects of the Company. Forward-looking statements, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “goal,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” or “anticipates,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy or objectives. Forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations of the oil initially in place, undiscovered resources, gross prospective barrels of oil equivalent, net prospective barrels of oil equivalent, net risked prospective barrels of oil equivalent, drilling success rates, resource information and other performance results. These statements are made to provide the public with management’s current assessment of the Company’s business, and it should not be assumed that these reserves are proven recoverable as defined by SEC guidelines or that actual drilling results will prove these statements to be correct. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to report any updates or revisions to any such statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Certain factors may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the statements made in this presentation. Please carefully review our filings with the SEC as we have identified many risk factors that impact our business plan.
