ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made herein contain, and certain oral statements made by representatives of Andina, the Company and their respective affiliates (including the Seller), from time to time may contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Andina’s and the Company’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “aim,” “continue,” “target,” “milestone,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “predicts,” “potential,” “might” and “continues,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, Andina’s, the Company’s and the Seller’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Transactions, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Transactions and the timing of the completion of the Transactions. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the control of Andina, the Company or the Seller and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement; (2) the inability to complete the Transaction due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of Andina or satisfy other conditions to closing in the Business Combination Agreement; (3) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Andina’s common stock on Nasdaq following consummation of the Transaction; (4) the risk that the Transactions disrupt current plans and operations of the Company as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Transactions; (5) the ability of the combined company to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions or meet its financial and strategic goals, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to pursue a growth strategy and manage growth profitability, maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and retailers and retain its management and key employees; (6) costs related to the Transactions; (7) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (8) the possibility that Andina or the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and (9) the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on Andina and the Company and their ability to consummate the proposed business combination; and (10) other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in the Registration Statement , including those under the heading “Risk Factors” therein as well as other risks and uncertainties discussed from time to time in other reports and other public filings with the SEC by Andina, and in other filings with the SEC made by Andina. The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Readers are referred to the most recent reports filed with the SEC by Andina. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Andina, the Company and the Seller undertake no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to applicable law.

 

 

 

 

Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any projections and forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those projections and forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as projected financial information, cost savings, synergies and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Andina, the Company or the Seller.
