Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, that are not historical facts, and involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results of Grid Dynamics to
differ materially from those expected and projected. Grid Dynamics
intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe
harbor provisions contained in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 and includes this statement, in part, for the
purposes of complying with such safe harbor provisions. These
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology, including the words “believes,”
“estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,”
“will,” “potential,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continue,” or
“should,” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or
comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include,
without limitation, statements about the closing of the offering.
Most of the factors that could cause actual results of Grid
Dynamics to differ materially from those expected and projected are
outside Grid Dynamics’s control and are difficult to predict.
Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not
limited to: (i) Grid Dynamics has a relatively short operating
history and operates in a rapidly evolving industry, which makes it
difficult to evaluate future prospects and may increase the risk
that it will not continue to be successful and may adversely impact
our stock price; (ii) Grid Dynamics may be unable to effectively
manage its growth or achieve anticipated growth, particularly as it
expands into new geographies, which could place significant strain
on Grid Dynamics’ management personnel, systems and resources;
(iii) Grid Dynamics’ revenues are highly dependent on a limited
number of clients and industries that are affected by seasonal
trends, and any decrease in demand for outsourced services in these
industries may reduce Grid Dynamics’ revenues and adversely affect
Grid Dynamics’ business, financial condition and results of
operations; (iv) macroeconomic conditions, inflationary pressures,
and the geopolitical climate, including the Russian invasion of
Ukraine, have and may continue to materially adversely affect our
stock price, business operations, overall financial performance and
growth prospects; (v) Grid Dynamics’ revenues are highly dependent
on clients primarily located in the United States, and any economic
downturn in the United States or in other parts of the world,
including Europe or disruptions in the credit markets may have a
material adverse effect on Grid Dynamics’ business, financial
condition and results of operations; (vi) Grid Dynamics faces
intense and increasing competition; (vii) Grid Dynamics’ failure to
successfully attract, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly
skilled personnel could materially adversely affect Grid Dynamics’
business, financial condition and results of operations; (viii)
failure to adapt to rapidly changing technologies, methodologies
and evolving industry standards may have a material adverse effect
on Grid Dynamics’ business, financial condition and results of
operations; (ix) failure to successfully deliver contracted
services or causing disruptions to clients’ businesses may have a
material adverse effect on Grid Dynamics’ reputation, business,
financial condition and results of operations; (x) risks and costs
related to acquiring and integrating other companies; and (xi)
other risks and uncertainties indicated in Grid Dynamics filings
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Grid
Dynamics cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not
exclusive. Grid Dynamics cautions readers not to place undue
reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as
of the date made. Grid Dynamics does not undertake or accept any
obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or
revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change
in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or
circumstances on which any such statement is based. Further
information about factors that could materially affect Grid
Dynamics, including its results of operations and financial
condition, is set forth under the “Risk Factors” section of Grid
Dynamic’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed October 31, 2024 and
in other periodic filings Grid Dynamics makes with the SEC.
