Statement Regarding Forward Looking Information
This report contains statements that are forward-looking, as that term is defined by the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 or by the Securities and Exchange Commission in
its rules. The Company intends that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors
created by these laws and rules. When used in this current report, the words “believes,”
“estimates,” “plans,” “expects,” “anticipates” and similar expressions as they relate to the
Company or its management are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The statements in
this report that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements related to the
closure of lending locations described in this report, or with respect to anticipated earnings, are
based on current expectations. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the
forward-looking statements, and such statements should not be regarded as a representation by the
Company or any other person that the results expressed in the statements will be achieved. Among
the factors that could cause the results to differ include, without limitation, changes in demand
for the Company’s services, the actions of third parties who offer products and services at the
Company’s locations, changes in competition, the ability of the Company to open new operating units
in accordance with its plans, economic conditions, real estate market fluctuations, interest rate
fluctuations, changes in the capital markets, changes in tax and other laws and governmental rules
and regulations applicable to the Company’s business, the ability to successfully integrate newly
acquired businesses into the Company’s existing operations and other risks indicated in the
Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks and uncertainties are
beyond the Company’s control, and the Company cannot predict, in many cases, all of the risks and
uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the
forward-looking statements.
