Reform
Act
of
1995,

without
limitation
those
about
Popular’s
business,
financial
condition,
results
of
operations, plans, objectives, and future performance. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, are
based on management’s current expectations and, by their nature, involve risks, uncertainties, estimates and
assumptions. Potential factors, some of which are beyond the Corporation’s control, could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include
without limitation the effect of competitive and economic factors, and our reaction to those factors, the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses, delinquency trends, market risk and the impact of interest rate changes, capital market
conditions, capital adequacy and liquidity, the effect of legal proceedings and new accounting standards on the
Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations, the impact of Hurricanes Irma and Maria on us, our ability to
successfully integrate the auto finance business acquired from Wells Fargo & Company, as well as the unexpected costs,
including, without limitation, costs due to exposure to any unrecorded liabilities or issues not identified during due
diligence investigation of the business or that are not subject to indemnification or reimbursement, and risks that the
business may suffer as a result of the transaction, including due to adverse effects on relationships with customers,
employees and service providers.
All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature, are forward-
looking, and the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continues,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “project” and similar
expressions, and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “might,” “can,” “may” or similar
expressions, are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.
More information on the risks and important factors that could affect the Corporation’s future results and financial
condition is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, our Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, and  our Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended
September 30, 2018 to be filed with the SEC. Our filings are available on the Corporation’s website
