Mana Capital’s and Cardio’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, Mana Capital’s and Cardio’s expectations with respect to future performance and anticipated financial impacts of the Business Combination, the satisfaction of the closing conditions to the Business Combination and the timing of the completion of the Business Combination. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside Mana Capital’s and Cardio’s control and are difficult to predict. All forward-looking statements are based upon estimates, forecasts and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Mana Capital and its management, and Cardio and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and many factors may cause the actual results to differ materially from current expectations which include, but are not limited to: the risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Mana Capital’s Form S-1 (File No. 333-260360), Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC (File No. 333-265308), as amended, which is subject to change and will include a document that serves as a prospectus and proxy statement of Mana Capital, and other documents filed by Mana Capital from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Nothing in this press release should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward looking statements will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made.
