Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This current report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of Clearwater’s and Enfusion’s management and on information currently available to them. Forward-looking statements include information concerning the following factors in reference to Clearwater and/or Enfusion: the timing of the consummation of the acquisition and the ability to satisfy closing conditions, possible or assumed future results of operations, possible or assumed performance, business strategies, technology developments, financing and investment plans, competitive position, industry, economic and regulatory environment, potential growth opportunities and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “aim,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond Clearwater’s and Enfusion’s control, that may cause their actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the ability to successfully close the acquisition, Clearwater’s ability to successfully integrate the operations and technology of Enfusion with those of Clearwater, retain and incentivize the employees of Enfusion following the close of the acquisition, retain Enfusion’s clients, repay debt to be incurred in connection with the Enfusion acquisition and meet financial covenants to be imposed in connection with such debt, risks that cost savings, synergies and growth from the acquisition may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, as well as other risks and uncertainties discussed under “Risk Factors” in Clearwater’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2025 and in Enfusion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 3, 2025, as well as in other periodic reports filed by Clearwater and Enfusion with the SEC. These filings are available at www.sec.gov and on Clearwater’s website, investors.clearwateranalytics.com, and Enfusion’s website, ir.enfusion.com. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this current report on Form 8-K and should not be relied upon as representing Clearwater’s or Enfusion’s expectations or beliefs as of any date subsequent to the time they are made. Each of Clearwater and Enfusion does not undertake to and specifically declines any obligation to update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of Clearwater or Enfusion.
