The financial guidance in the announcement included as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from such statements.

number of factors could cause the company's actual results, performance, achievements, or industry results to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Due to these uncertainties and risks, readers of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the media release are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the media release. IHS disclaims any duty to update guidance or any other forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events, actual results, or changes in the company's expectations.
