This press release is published by Universal Music Group N.V. and contains inside information within the meaning of article 7 (1) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (Market Abuse Regulation).
This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements relating to the business, financial performance and results of Universal Music Group N.V. (the "Company" or "UMG") and the industry in which the Company operates. Such forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "expectation", "belief", "estimate", "plan", "target", or "forecast" and similar expressions or the negative thereof; or by the forward-looking nature of discussions of strategy, plans or intentions; or by their context. Although UMG believes that such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are related to factors that are outside UMG's control, including, but not limited to, UMG's inability to compete successfully and to identify, attract, sign and retain successful recording artists and songwriters, failure of streaming and subscription adoption or revenue to grow or to grow less rapidly than anticipated, UMG's reliance on digital service providers, UMG's inability to execute its business strategy, the global nature of UMG's operations, UMG's inability to protect its intellectual property and against piracy, UMG's inability to attract and retain key personnel, changes in laws and regulations and the other risks that are described in the 2023 Annual Report. Accordingly, UMG cautions readers against placing undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press release. UMG disclaims any intention or obligation to provide, update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The forward-looking statements in this press release include target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results, projections and other comparable phrases and concepts which are hypothetical in nature and are shown for illustrative, informational purposes only and may not materialize. Except as otherwise specifically stated, these forward-looking statements are not intended to forecast or predict future events, but rather to show the hypothetical estimates calculated using specific assumptions presented herein and during the Capital Markets Day presentation. They do not reflect any actual results, which may differ materially. No representation or warranty is made as to the reasonableness of the assumptions made or that all assumptions used in calculating the target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results or projections have been stated or fully considered. Changes in the assumptions may have a material impact on the target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results or projections presented. Target, goal, hypothetical or estimated results or projections may not materialize.
This press release includes certain alternative performance measures which are not defined in IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board as endorsed by the EU.
