Safe Harbor Statement

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including without limitation, statements regarding our expectations regarding the completion and timing of the offering, the satisfaction of customary closing conditions related to the offering, the proceeds that we expect to receive from the offering and the intended use of proceeds from the offering. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” and other similar expressions.  In addition, any statements which refer to expectations, projections, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.  Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those associated with fluctuations in our operating results; our historical dependence on sales to a limited number of customers and fluctuations in the mix of customers and products in any period; global public health crises that reduce economic activity; the rapidly evolving markets for our products and uncertainty regarding the development of these markets; the need to develop and introduce new products to offset the historical decline in the average unit selling price of our products; the challenges of rapid growth followed by periods of contraction; intensive competition; the continued availability of government funding opportunities; delays or unanticipated costs that may be encountered in the development of new products based on our in-place associative computing technology and the establishment of new markets and customer and partner relationships for the sale of such products; and delays or unexpected challenges related to the establishment of customer relationships and orders for our radiation-hardened and tolerant SRAM products. Many of these risks are currently amplified by and will continue to be amplified by, or in the future may be amplified by, economic and geopolitical conditions, such as changing interest rates, worldwide inflationary pressures, policy unpredictability, the imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers, military conflicts and declines in the global economic environment. These risks are discussed in more detail in our most recently-filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other reports filed from time to time with the SEC. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release, and we undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. You are urged to review carefully and consider our various disclosures in this press release and in our reports publicly disclosed or filed with the SEC that attempt to advise you of the risks and factors that may affect our business.
