Northern Trust Corporation 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
Forward Looking Statement
This presentation may include forward-looking statements concerning Northern Trust’s financial
results and outlook, capital adequacy, dividend policy, anticipated expense levels and
technology spending, risk management policies, contingent liabilities, strategic initiatives,
industry
trends,
and
expectations
regarding
the
impact
of
recent
legislation.
Forward-looking
statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”,
“intend”, “estimate”, “project”, “likely”, “may increase”, “plan”, “goal”, “target”, “strategy”, and
similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “would”, and
“could”.
Forward-looking statements are Northern Trust’s current estimates or expectations of
future events or future results, and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.
These statements are based on assumptions about many important factors, including the
factors discussed in Northern Trust’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and other filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are available on Northern
Trust’s website.
We caution you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement as actual results
may differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Northern
Trust assumes no obligation to update its forward-looking statements.
