Forward-looking Statements
This announcement (including information incorporated by
reference) contains "forward-looking statements" and
"forward-looking information" under applicable securities laws
(collectively, "forward-looking statements"), including statements
with respect to future financial or operating performance. Such
statements include "future-oriented financial information" or
"financial outlook" with respect to prospective financial
performance, financial position, EBITDA, cash flows and other
financial metrics that are based on assumptions about future
economic conditions and courses of action. Generally, these
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects",
"expected", "budgeted", "forecasts" and "anticipates" and include
production outlook, operating schedules, production profiles,
expansion and expansion plans, efficiency gains, production and
cost guidance, capital expenditure outlook, exploration spend and
other mine plans. Although Centamin believes that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable,
Centamin can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to
be correct. Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature
and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current
expectations and projections of the management of Centamin about
future events and are therefore subject to known and unknown risks
and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ
materially from the future results expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements. In addition, there are a number of
factors that could cause actual results, performance, achievements
or developments to differ materially from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements; the risks and
uncertainties associated with direct or indirect impacts of
COVID-19 or other pandemic, general business, economic,
competitive, political and social uncertainties; the results of
exploration activities and feasibility studies; assumptions in
economic evaluations which prove to be inaccurate; currency
fluctuations; changes in project parameters; future prices of gold
and other metals; possible variations of ore grade or recovery
rates; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining
industry; climatic conditions; political instability; decisions and
regulatory changes enacted by governmental authorities; delays in
obtaining approvals or financing or completing development or
construction activities; and discovery of archaeological ruins.
Financial outlook and future-ordinated financial information
contained in this news release is based on assumptions about future
events, including economic conditions and proposed courses of
action, based on management's assessment of the relevant
information currently available. Readers are cautioned that any
such financial outlook or future-ordinated financial information
contained or referenced herein may not be appropriate and should
not be used for purposes other than those for which it is disclosed
herein. The Company and its management believe that the prospective
financial information has been prepared on a reasonable basis,
reflecting management's best estimates and judgments at the date
hereof, and represent, to the best of management's knowledge and
opinion, the Company's expected course of action. However, because
this information is highly subjective, it should not be relied on
as necessarily indicative of future results. There can be no
assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be
accurate, as actual results and future events could differ
materially from those anticipated in such information or
statements, particularly in light of the current economic climate
and the significant volatility, the risks and uncertainties
associated with the direct and indirect impacts of COVID-19.
Forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date
of this announcement and the Company disclaims any obligation to
update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new
information, future events or results or otherwise.
Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements.
