program, the Company’s proposed acquisition of Crozier Fine Arts (“Crozier”), projected revenues from the Company’s emerging market acquisition pipeline, valuation creation and returns associated with the Company’s data center business and other adjacent businesses, and the benefits associated with increasing the percentage of real estate that the Company owns. These forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. When the Company uses words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates” or similar expressions, the Company is making forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements except as statements of the Company’s present intentions and of the Company’s present expectations, which may or may not occur. Although the Company believes that its forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company’s expected results may not be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from the Company’s expectations. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the Company’s other expectations include, among others: (i) the Company’s expected dividends may be materially different than the Company’s estimates; (ii) the cost to comply with current and future laws, regulations and customer demands relating to privacy issues; (iii) the impact of litigation or disputes that may arise in connection with incidents in which the Company fails to protect its customers’ information; (iv) changes in the price for the Company’s storage and information management services relative to the cost of providing such storage and information management services; (v) changes in customer preferences and demand for the Company’s storage and information management services; (vi) the adoption of alternative technologies and shifts by the Company’s customers to storage of data through non-paper based technologies; (vii) the cost or potential liabilities associated with real estate necessary for the Company’s business; (viii) the performance of business partners upon whom the Company depends for technical assistance or management expertise outside the U.S.; (ix) changes in the political and economic environments in the countries in which the Company’s international subsidiaries operate; (x) changes in the cost of the Company’s debt; (xi) changes in the amount of the Company’s capital expenditures; (xii) the Company’s ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust; (xiii) the Company’s ability or inability to complete acquisitions on satisfactory terms and to integrate acquired companies efficiently, including Crozier; and (xiv) other trends in competitive or economic conditions affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations not presently contemplated. In addition, with respect to the potential Recall transaction, the Company’s ability to close the proposed transaction in accordance with its terms and within the anticipated time period, or at all, is dependent on the Company’s and Recall’s ability to satisfy the closing conditions for the transaction, including the receipt of governmental and shareholder approvals, and the benefits of the potential Recall transaction, including potential cost synergies and other synergies (including tax synergies), may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected. Additional risks and factors that may affect results are set forth in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, the Company’s current report on Form 8- K, filed with the SEC on October 307, 2015 and the Company’s quarterly report on From 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2015 and in Recall’s filings with the Australian Stock Exchange, including Recall’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the result of any revision to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
