Risk of Loss
The investment strategies pursued by the business lines described on this Site entail various, substantial risks. These risks relate to, among other things, and without limitation, the highly competitive market for investments; dependence on ITE’s ability to identify and consummate suitable investments and effectively manage, and dispose of, such investments; general risks associated with investments and their business operations; changes in economic or market conditions and legal, regulatory or tax requirements or status; reliance on third parties; risks associated with particular industries, sectors or investment types; the costs associated with investing and ITE’s management of investments and the dependence on ITE personnel.
Forward-Looking Statements and Past Performance
The contents of the Site may contain forward-looking statements or statements of opinion or intention, which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “can,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “seek,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “forecast,” “project,” “estimate,” “potential,” “intend,” “continue,” “target,” “plan” or “believe” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Such statements, including those relating to current and future market conditions and trends, are not historical facts and are based on beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates, and projections about the financial industry, the economy, ITE itself or its investments. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in, forward-looking statements. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, and undue reliance should not be placed thereon. In addition, important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include risks relating to our dependence on certain key personnel, our ability to raise new funds and other products, market conditions generally, our ability to manage our growth, investment performance, changes in our regulatory environment and tax status, the variability of our revenues, net income and cash flow, our use of leverage to finance our businesses and investments by our funds and other clients and litigation risks, among others.
ITE undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Furthermore, past performance is not indicative of future results; no representation is being made that any investment will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those achieved in the past, or that significant losses will be avoided. Any views reflected on this Site are subject to change without notice.
Statements
With respect to any statement made by a current or former employee, operating executive/senior advisor or portfolio company executive of ITE (each, an “executive”) about ITE on this Site, it should be noted that ITE , due to its ownership interest in, and/or governance rights over, a portfolio company, is often in a position to influence decisions regarding executive compensation, executive hiring and firing, and other similar matters in relation to that portfolio company. Such relationship, ownership interest and/or governance rights give rise to potential conflicts of interest on the part of executives who make statements about ITE . For example, an executive may have an incentive to make a positive statement about ITE in order to influence the decisions we may make in regards to the portfolio company that may benefit the executive (e.g., decisions relating to executive compensation) or in order to influence us to offer more favorable terms with respect to any personal investment in a managed vehicle or investment. The executive statements on this Site are intended as examples of portfolio companies that ITE has worked with in order to assist such company in achieving its business and capital raising goals and are not intended to be a representative sample of all portfolio companies. The experiences of other portfolio companies and executives may differ from the experiences presented, and there is no guarantee that ITE’s work with other portfolio companies will produce similar results to those presented. This Site contains certain statements made about ITE and its portfolio companies by past or present employees, operating executives/senior advisors and portfolio company executives of ITE. These statements reflect the opinions, views and/or beliefs of such individuals and are intended to be viewed by executives of companies that could become portfolio companies of ITE in the future. Other past or present employees and operating executives/senior advisors, and other past or present portfolio company executives, of ITE may not necessarily share the same opinions, views or beliefs about ITE and its portfolio companies as those expressed in these statements. In addition, other third parties that have relationships with, or knowledge of, such portfolio companies may not necessarily share the same views, beliefs, or opinions about the portfolio companies as those expressed in these statements. ITE makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, currentness or completeness of these statements. Moreover, it should not be assumed that the portfolio companies discussed herein were or will be profitable or that future portfolio companies will be profitable.
ITE, due to its ownership interest in, and/or governance rights over, a portfolio company, is often in a position to influence decisions regarding executive compensation, executive hiring and firing, and other similar matters in relation to that portfolio company. In addition, operating executives/senior advisors are often compensated by ITE, its funds or its portfolio companies, which compensation may be comprised of various components and other rights and economic benefits.
Such relationships give rise to potential conflicts of interest on the part of portfolio company executives and operating executives/senior advisors who make statements about ITE. For example, a portfolio company executive may have an incentive to make a positive statement about ITE in order to influence our decisions in regards to the portfolio company that may benefit the executive (e.g., decisions relating to executive compensation). Similarly, an operating executives/senior advisors may have an incentive to make a positive statement about ITE in order to influence our decisions in regards to any compensation arrangements that ITE, its funds and its portfolio companies have with the operating executives/senior advisors. Moreover, both portfolio company executives and operating executives/senior advisors may have an incentive to make a positive statement about ITE in order to influence us to offer the executive or operating executives/senior advisors more favorable terms with respect to any personal investment that he or she has made, or may in the future make, in a managed vehicle.
While some of these portfolio company executives may be investors in ITE -managed vehicles (as of the dates they made their statements), the statements made herein are meant to reflect their experiences as ITE portfolio company executives and not their experiences as investors (if applicable). Certain of the portfolio companies discussed are controlled by ITE (as of the dates these statements were made).
