Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “future,” “outlook,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of other performance metrics and projections of market opportunity. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K and on the current expectations of the Company’s, Luminex’s and GP Global’s respective management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any 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 the Company, Luminex and GP Global. Some important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements could include changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the Luminex SPA and the GP Global SPA, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals (including approval from antitrust regulators) are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the Company or the expected benefits of the Luminex Stock Acquisition and the GP Global Stock Acquisition (collectively, the “Stock Acquisitions”), if not obtained; the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Stock Acquisitions; matters discovered by the parties as they complete their respective due diligence investigation of the other parties; the ability of the Company prior to the Stock Acquisitions, and the Company following the Stock Acquisitions, to maintain the listing of the Company’s shares on Nasdaq; costs related to the Stock Acquisitions; the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of each of the Stock Acquisitions, including the approval of the Luminex SPA and the GP Global SPA by the stockholders of the Company and the receipt of a fairness opinion with respect to the GP Global Stock Acquisition, the risk that the Stock Acquisitions may not be completed by the stated deadlines and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the stated deadlines; the inability to complete a PIPE transaction; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, Luminex or GP Global related to the Stock Acquisitions; the attraction and retention of qualified directors, officers, employees and key personnel following the Stock Acquisitions, the Company’s ability following the Stock Acquisitions to compete effectively in a highly competitive market; the ability to protect and enhance Luminex’s and GP Global’s corporate reputation and brand; the impact from future regulatory, judicial, and legislative changes in Luminex’s and GP Global’s industry; the uncertain effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; future financial performance of the Company following the Stock Acquisitions; the ability of the Company to forecast and maintain an adequate rate of revenue growth and appropriately plan its expenses; the risk that the Stock Acquisitions disrupt current plans and operations of Luminex and GP Global as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Stock Acquisitions; the possibility that Luminex or GP Global may be adversely affected by other economic, business, regulatory, and/or competitive factors; the evolution of the markets in which Luminex and GP Global compete, including ecommerce; the ability of Luminex and GP Global to anticipate and respond to changing consumer preferences and merchandise trends; the ability of Luminex and GP Global to implement their existing strategic initiatives and continue to innovate their existing products; the ability of Luminex and GP Global to defend their intellectual property; the risk that Luminex and GP Global may not be able to execute their growth strategies and the timing of expected business milestones; the risk that Luminex and GP Global may not be able to recognize revenue for their products or secure additional contracts that generate revenue; and Luminex’s and GP Global’s performance, capabilities, strategy, and outlook. The foregoing list of risks is not exhaustive.

If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company, Luminex and GP Global do not presently know, or that the Company, Luminex and GP Global currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s, Luminex’s and GP Global’s current expectations, plans and forecasts of future events and views as of the date hereof. Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto, which speak only as of the date they are made and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein and the risk factors of the Company, Luminex and GP Global described above. The Company, Luminex and GP Global anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause their assessments to change. However, while the Company, Luminex and GP Global may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they each specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s, Luminex’s or GP Global’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
