FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 8-K and other reports filed by the registrant from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the "Filings") contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the registrant's management as well as estimates and assumptions made by the registrant's management. When used in the Filings the words "anticipate,” "believe," "estimate," "expect," "future," "intend," "plan" or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the registrant or the registrant's management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the registrant with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors relating to the registrant's industry, the registrant's operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by the registrant. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

Although the registrant believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the registrant cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the registrant does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Today, at 3:00 PM, New York time, James Joyce, CEO, of Aethlon Medical, Inc. will be making a presentation at the 2017 Rodman & Renshaw 19^th Annual Global Investment Conference. A copy of the presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
