Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or PureCycle’s future financial or operating performance and may refer to projections and forecasts.

The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of PureCycle’s management and are inherently subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances and their potential effects and speak only as of the date of this press release. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated.
