Disclaimer
This document contains statements related
to our future business and financial performance, and future events or
developments involving
Siemens Energy that may constitute
forward-looking statements. These statements may be identified by words such as
“expect,” “look forward to,” “anticipate” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,”
“estimate,” “will,” “project,” or words of similar meaning. We may also make
forward-looking statements in other reports, prospectuses, in presentations, in
material delivered to shareholders, and in press releases. In addition, our
representatives may from time to time make oral forward-looking statements.
Such statements are based on the current expectations and certain assumptions
of Siemens Energy´s management, of which many are beyond Siemens Energy´s
control. These are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other
factors, including, but not limited to, those described in disclosures, in
particular in the chapter “Report on expected developments and associated
material opportunities and risks” in the Annual Report. Should one or more of
these risks or uncertainties materialize, should acts of force majeure, such as
pandemics, occur, or should underlying expectations including future events
occur at a later date or not at all, or should assumptions prove incorrect,
Siemens Energy´s actual results, performance, or achievements may (negatively
or positively) vary materially from those described explicitly or implicitly in
the relevant forward-looking statement. Siemens Energy neither intends, nor
assumes any obligation, to update or revise these forward-looking statements in
light of developments which differ from those anticipated.
This document includes supplemental
financial measures – that are not clearly defined in the applicable financial
reporting framework – and that are or may be alternative performance measures
(non-GAAP-measures). These supplemental financial measures should not be viewed
in isolation or as alternatives to measures of Siemens Energy´s net assets and
financial position or results of operations as presented in accordance with the
applicable financial reporting framework in its consolidated financial
statements. Other companies that report or describe similarly titled
alternative performance measures may calculate them differently. Explanations
of financial measures used can be found in the Annual Report 2020 of Siemens
Energy AG (available at
https://assets.siemens-energy.com/siemens/assets/api/uuid:e28c0ec6-2e23-4dc4-811a-7eccc4bd035f/2020-12-07-siemens-energy-ag-annual-report-2020.pdf),
in particular in Section 1.2. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout
this and other documents may not add up precisely to the totals provided and
percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
