There may be additional risks that neither DUET nor FENIX360 presently know, or that DUET and FENIX360 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 DUET’s and FENIX360’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. Neither DUET nor FENIX360 gives assurance that either DUET or FENIX360, or the combined company, will achieve its expectations.
