This presentation contains forward-looking
statements that reflect the Companys current
expectation regarding future events. The
forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties. Actual events could differ
materially from those projected herein and depend
on a number of factors including, but not limited
to, changing market conditions, successful and
timely completion of clinical studies,
uncertainties related to the regulatory approval
process, establishment of corporate alliances and
other risks detailed from time to time in the
Companys filings. Such statements are also based
on various assumptions, including the successful
and timely completion of clinical studies on
Ambrilias products demonstrating efficacy and
safety for human use, their successful
commercialization within the forecasted timelines
and the attainment of the forecasted milestone
payments and other revenues. While Ambrilia
anticipates that subsequent events and
developments may cause Ambrilias views to
change, Ambrilia specifically disclaims any
obligation to update these forward-looking
statements, unless obligated to do so by
applicable securities laws.
