Wherever possible, words or phrases such as "anticipate," "objective," "may," "will," "might," "should," "could," "can," "intend," "expect," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "plan," "is designed to," or similar expressions, or the negative of such expressions or similar variations, have been used to identify forward-looking statements appearing on the Website. Such forward-looking statements reflect Cormint's current beliefs with respect to future events and are based on information currently available to Cormint.

Forward-looking statements involve significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. A number of factors could cause actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance, or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: (i) general business, economic, and capital market conditions; (ii) regulatory developments affecting data center, energy, telecommunications, or digital asset industries; (iii) the demand for, and pricing of, AI and high-performance computing capacity, hosting services, and related products and services; (iv) the demand for, and price volatility of, bitcoin and other digital assets; (v) the availability, cost, and reliability of electric power and grid interconnection; (vi) construction risks, including delays, cost overruns, and equipment availability at our data center sites; (vii) customer concentration and the performance of our hosting and tenant relationships, including counterparty credit risk; (viii) cybersecurity risks and potential loss or theft of digital assets; (ix) our ability to obtain and maintain adequate financing, including in respect of any equity or debt offering or public listing; (x) competition from hyperscalers, colocation providers, and other infrastructure operators; (xi) our ability to attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel; (xii) the impact of technological changes on our products, services, and industry; and (xiii) other risks discussed elsewhere on the Website and in Cormint's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, when and as filed.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results, performance, or achievements could vary materially from those expressed or implied. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained on the Website. All such forward-looking statements are made as of the date of inclusion on the Website, and Cormint does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law.
