Notes and forward-looking statements
This document contains statements related to our future business and financial performance and future events or developments involving
Siemens 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’ management, of which many are beyond Siemens’ control. These are subject to a number of risks,
uncertainties and 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 of the Annual Report, and in the Half-year Financial Report, which should be
read in conjunction with the Annual Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, events of force majeure, such as
pandemics, occur or should underlying expectations including future events occur at a later date or not at all or assumptions prove incorrect,
actual results, performance or achievements of Siemens may (negatively or positively) vary materially from those described explicitly or
implicitly in the relevant forward-looking statement. Siemens neither intends, nor assumes any obligation, to update or revise these forwardlooking statements in light of developments which differ from those anticipated.
This document includes – in the applicable financial reporting framework not clearly defined – supplemental financial measures 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’ net assets and financial positions 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.
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.
