Safe Harbor and Other Information
The CPaaS business is evolving at a fast pace in India with very little information available in the public domain on the overall market. The financial community has always sought a response on the total market size, key drivers of the industry and the competitive landscape in this space. In order to provide more transparency and to help understand our business better, we are providing indicative data around the market size and our relative share (assuming the indicative data). This indicative data has been arrived at basis our detailed internal analysis. This is being done with an intent to provide an indicative picture of the industry and address queries about the CPaaS space. This must not be seen as a positioning statement of the company, and one should not rely on the company’s disclosure for their assessment of the market size or the relevant share of any participants in the market.
This presentation contains statements that include information concerning our possible or assumed strategy, future operations, financing plans, operating model, financial position, future revenues, projected costs, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, potential market opportunities, plans and objectives of management, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking in nature. Such statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. In some cases, although not all forward‐looking statements contain these identifying words, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “believe,” “hope,” “target,” “project,” “plan,” “PROPOSED,” “goals,” “estimate,” “potential,” “predict,” “may,” “will,” “might,” “could,” “intend,” “shall,” and variations of these terms or the negative of these terms and similar or derivate expressions. The forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements, expressed or implied by the forward- looking statements. It is advisable not to place excessive reliance on any of the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved, if at all. Additionally, these forward-looking statements, involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions based on information available to us as of 18/01/24, including those related to the continued impacts of COVID-19 on our business, future financial performance and global economic conditions. Many of these assumptions relate to matters that are beyond our control and changing rapidly, including, but not limited to, the timeframes for and severity of social distancing and other mitigation requirements, the timing of headwinds from COVID-19, the availability of vaccinations, the continued impact of COVID-19 on new or existing customers, business decisions and the length of our sales cycles, renewal timing or billings terms, particularly for customers in certain industries highly affected by COVID-19.
If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, our results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation and do not intend to update these forward-looking statements or to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.
This presentation contains statistical data, estimates and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications or other publicly available information wherever possible, as well as other information based on our internal sources.
