This Announcement may contain, or may be deemed to contain, "forward-looking statements" with respect to certain of Inspired's plans and its current goals and expectations relating to its future financial condition, performance, strategic initiatives, objectives and results. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as "aim", "anticipate", "target", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", "believe", "seek", "may", "could", "outlook" or other words of similar meaning. By their nature, all forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances which are beyond the control of Inspired, including amongst other things, United Kingdom domestic and global economic business conditions, market-related risks such as fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, the effect of competition, inflation, deflation, the timing effect and other uncertainties of future acquisitions or combinations within relevant industries, the effect of tax and other legislation and other regulations in the jurisdictions in which Inspired and its affiliates operate, the effect of volatility in the equity, capital and credit markets on Inspired 's profitability and ability to access capital and credit, a decline in Inspired 's credit ratings; the effect of operational risks; and the loss of key personnel.

Any forward-looking statements made in this Announcement by or on behalf of Inspired speak only as of the date they are made. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, Inspired expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to publish any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained in this Announcement to reflect any changes in Inspired 's expectations with regard thereto or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

 

No statement in this Announcement is intended to be a profit forecast or estimate, and no statement in this Announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings per share of Inspired for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings per share of Inspired.

 

The Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing will not be admitted to trading on any stock exchange other than the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.
