Cautionary Statements & Disclosures This presentation and the accompanying oral presentation contain “forward-looking” statements that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, including statements regarding market trends, the impact of COVID-19 on our business, including demand for our products, pipeline and near-term disruption in our supply chain, our positioning and recurring revenues, our strategy and objectives, our expectations as to future operating results, including as to non-GAAP profitability and operating expenses, our plans with respect to issuing guidance. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or implied by our forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the impact of COVID-19 on our business, on the business of our customers and suppliers, and on the global economy in general, execution risks related to closing key deals and improving our execution, successfully executing our strategies, market adoption of our products, successfully anticipating market needs and opportunities, timely development of new products and features, achieving or maintaining profitability, loss or delay of expected purchases, our ability to maintain or improve our competitive position; competitive and execution risks related to cloud-based computing trends, attracting and retaining new end-customers, maintaining and enhancing our brand and reputation, changes demanded by our customers in the deployment and payment model for our products, growth in markets relating to network security, the success of any future acquisitions or investments, the success of our partnerships with technology providers, the ability of our sales team to execute well, our ability to shorten our close cycle, the ability of our channel partners to sell our products, variations in product mix or geographic locations of our sales, our presence in international markets, and other factors described in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to which your attention is directed. The forward-looking statements included in this presentation are based on current expectations and beliefs as of July 28, 2020 only. We do not intend to update this information contained in the forward-looking statements, except as required by law. This presentation and the accompanying oral presentation also include certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under U.S. GAAP. We consider these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the operating performance of the company, exclusive of unusual events or factors that do not directly affect what we consider to be our core operating performance, and are used by the company's management for that purpose. Definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the appendix to this document and in the accompanying financial results press release. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis is not available due to high variability and low visibility with respect to the charges which are excluded from these non-GAAP measures. 2
