International General Insurance Holdings Ltd. 2 Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward - looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbour” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 . The expectations, estimates, and projections of the business of IGI may differ from its actual results and, consequently, you should not rely on forward - looking statements as predictions of future events . Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “commitment,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward - looking statements . Forward - looking statements contained in this press release may include, but are not limited to, our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, the outcome of our strategic initiatives, our expectations regarding pricing and other market conditions, and our growth prospects . These forward - looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results . Most of these factors are outside of the control of IGI and are difficult to predict . Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to : ( 1 ) changes in demand for IGI’s services together with the possibility that IGI may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors globally and in the regions in which it operates ; ( 2 ) competition, the ability of IGI to grow and manage growth profitably and IGI’s ability to retain its key employees ; ( 3 ) changes in applicable laws or regulations ; ( 4 ) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company ; ( 5 ) the effects of the hostilities between Russia and Ukraine and the sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States, European Union, United Kingdom and others ; ( 6 ) the effects of the war between Israel and Hamas ; ( 7 ) the inability to maintain the listing of the Company’s common shares on Nasdaq ; and ( 8 ) other risks and uncertainties indicated in IGI’s filings with the SEC . The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive . In addition, forward - looking statements are inherently based on various estimates and assumptions that are subject to the judgment of those preparing them and are also subject to significant economic, competitive, industry and other uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond the control of IGI . There can be no assurance that IGI’s financial condition or results of operations will be consistent with those set forth in such forward - looking statements . You should not place undue reliance upon any forward - looking statements, which speak only as of the date made . IGI 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 except to the extent that is required by law .
