Forward-Looking Statements This earnings release and the associated conference call may include forwardlooking statements by the Company and our authorized officers pertaining to such matters as our goals, intentions, and expectations regarding revenues, earnings, loan production, asset quality, capital levels, and acquisitions, among other matters; our estimates of future costs and benefits of the actions we may take; our assessments of probable losses on loans; our assessments of interest rate and other market risks; and our ability to achieve our financial and other strategic goals. Forwardlooking statements are typically identified by such words as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, outlook, estimate, forecast, project, and other similar words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. Additionally, forwardlooking statements speak only as of the date they are made; the Company does not assume any duty, and does not undertake, to update our forwardlooking statements. Furthermore, because forwardlooking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in our statements, and our future performance could differ materially from our historical results. Our forwardlooking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties: general economic conditions and trends, either nationally or locally; conditions in the securities markets; changes in interest rates; changes in deposit flows, and in the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; changes in real estate values; changes in the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios; changes in competitive pressures among financial institutions or from nonfinancial institutions; our ability to retain key members of management; our ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, customers, systems, and management personnel we may acquire into our operations, and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames; changes in legislation, regulations, and policies; and a variety of other matters which, by their nature, are subject to significant uncertainties and/or are beyond our control. Greater detail regarding some of these factors is provided in our Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and our Forms 10-Q for the three months ended March 31 and June 30, 2014, including in the Risk Factors section of these and other SEC reports we file. Our forwardlooking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those we may discuss elsewhere in this news release, on our conference call, during investor presentations, or in our SEC filings, which are accessible on our website and at the SECs website, www.sec.gov .
