Forward-Looking Statements

 

This filing pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s and Butterfly’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these 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,” and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s and Butterfly’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Business Combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Business Combination and the timing of the completion of the Business Combination. 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 the Company’s and Butterfly’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the ability of Longview and Butterfly prior to the Business Combination, and New Butterfly following the Business Combination, to meet the closing conditions in the Business Combination Agreement, including due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of Longview and Butterfly or certain regulatory approvals, or failure to satisfy other conditions to closing in the Business Combination Agreement; (2) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances, including the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Longview and Butterfly following the announcement of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement or could otherwise cause the transactions contemplated therein to fail to close; (3) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the combined company’s Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, as applicable, following the Business Combination; (4) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (5) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (6) costs related to the Business Combination; (7) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (8) the inability of the combined company to raise financing in the future; (8) the success, cost and timing of Butterfly’s and the combined company’s product development activities; (9) the inability of Butterfly or the combined company to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for their products, and any related restrictions and limitations of any approved product; (10) the inability of Butterfly or the combined company to identify, in-license or acquire additional technology; (11) the inability of Butterfly or the combined company to maintain Butterfly’s existing license, manufacturing, supply and distribution agreements; (12) the inability of Butterfly or the combined company to compete with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the development of treatments for the indications that Butterfly is currently pursuing for its product candidates; (13) the size and growth potential of the markets for Butterfly’s and the combined company’s products and services, and each of their ability to serve those markets, either alone or in partnership with others; (14) the pricing of Butterfly’s and the combined company’s products and services and reimbursement for medical procedures conducted using Butterfly’s and the combined company’s products and services; (15) Butterfly’s and the combined company’s estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing; (16) Butterfly’s and the combined company’s financial performance; and (17) the impact of COVID-19 on Butterfly’s business and/or the ability of the parties to complete the Business Combination; and (18) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination, including those under “Risk Factors” in the Registration Statement, and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC.

 

The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company 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.
