Forward-Looking Statements
This statement may contain forward-looking statements based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. All opinions, forecasts, projections, future plans or other statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements and include words or phrases such as “believes,” “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “our view,” “we see,” “would” and words and phrases of similar import. The safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to any forward-looking statements made in connection with an exchange offer, including forward-looking statements from ACI’s or S1’s Form 10-K which are incorporated by reference into the prospectus/offer to exchange or in any Form 425 filed in the future.
We can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Actual results could differ materially as a result of a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of the control of management. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) that a transaction with S1 may not be completed on a timely basis and on favorable terms, (2) negative effects on our business or S1’s business resulting from the pendency of the proposed transaction, (3) that we may not achieve the synergies and other expected benefits within the expected time or in the amounts we anticipate, and (4) that we may not be able to promptly and effectively integrate the merged businesses. Other factors that could materially affect our business and actual results of operations are discussed in our most recent 10-Ks as well as other filings with the SEC available at the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
