The words “anticipate”, “believe”, “continue”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intends”, “may”, “might”, “plan”, “possible”, “potential”, “predict”, “project”, “should”, “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are based on Satellogic’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on Satellogic and include statements concerning Satellogic’s strategies, Satellogic’s future opportunities, and the commercial and governmental applications for Satellogic’s technology. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by, an investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Satellogic. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to: ((i) our ability to generate revenue as expected; (ii) our ability to continue as a going concern; (iii) our ability to effectively market and sell our EO services and to convert contracted revenues and our pipeline of potential contracts into actual revenues; (iv) risks related to the Secured Convertible Notes; (v) the potential loss of one or more of our largest customers; (vi) the considerable time and expense related to our sales efforts and the length and unpredictability of our sales cycle; (vii) risks and uncertainties associated with defense-related contracts; (viii) risks related to our pricing structure; (ix) our ability to scale production of our satellites as planned; (x) unforeseen risks, challenges and uncertainties related to our expansion into new business lines; (xi) our dependence on third parties, to transport and launch our satellites into space; (xii) our reliance on third party vendors and manufacturers to build and provide certain satellite components, products, or services; (xiii) our dependence on ground station and cloud-based computing infrastructure operated by third parties for value added services, and any errors, disruption, cybersecurity incidents, performance problems, or failure in their or our operational infrastructure; (xiv) risks related to certain minimum service requirements in our customer contracts; (xv) market acceptance of our EO services and our dependence upon our ability to keep pace with the latest technological advances; (xvi) our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates or consummate acquisitions on acceptable terms, or our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions; (xvii) competition for EO services; (xviii) challenges with international operations or unexpected changes to the regulatory environment in certain markets; (xix) unknown defects or errors in our products; (xx) risk related to the capital-intensive nature of our business and our ability to raise adequate capital to finance our business strategies; (xxi) uncertainties regarding our previously announced and ongoing efforts to reduce operational costs and control spending, including workforce reductions; (xxii) uncertainties beyond our control related to the production, launch, commissioning, and/or operation of our satellites and related ground systems, software and analytic technologies; (xxiii) the failure of the market for EO services to achieve the growth potential we expect; (xxiv) risks related to our satellites and related equipment becoming impaired; (xxv) risks related to the failure of our satellites to operate as intended; (xxvi) production and launch delays, launch failures, and damage or destruction to our satellites during launch; (xxvii) significant risks and uncertainties related to our insurance that may not be covered by insurance; and (xxviii) the impact of natural disasters, unusual or prolonged unfavorable weather conditions, epidemic outbreaks, terrorist acts and geopolitical events (including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, in the Gaza Strip and the Red Sea region) on our business and satellite launch schedules.
