The words “anticipate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “might,”“ plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “ str ive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that statement is not forward looking. Forward looki ng 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 ris ks and uncertainties. Such statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and actual results may dif fer materially from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements due to various important factors, including, but not limited to: changes in business, marke t, financial, political and legal conditions; unfavorable changes in the reimbursement environment for TriSalus’s products; TriSalus’s product candidates not achieving success in preclinical or clinical trials or not being able to obtain regulatory approval, either on a timely basis or at all; future clinical trial results/data may not be consist ent with interim, initial or preliminary results/data or results/data from prior preclinical studies or clinical trials; TriSalus’s ability to maintain and grow its market share; the size of the addressable markets for TriNav and TriSalus’s product candidates being less than TriSalus estimates; TriSalus’s ability to successfully commercialize any product candidates that are approved; TriSalus’s ability to continue to fund preclinical and clinical trials for its product candidates; future economic and market conditions; the effects of compet iti on on TriSalus’s business; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to TriSalus ; the ability of the company to raise money to finance its operations in the future; and the outcome of any potential litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries.
