Forward-looking information contained herein reflects the current expectations or beliefs of hotstocks based on information currently available to it and is subject to a variety of known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual events or results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information.
These risks and uncertainties and other factors include that the success of hotstocks product candidates will require significant capital resources and years of clinical development efforts; the results of clinical testing and trial activities of hotstocks products; hotstocks ability to obtain regulatory approval and market acceptance of its products; hotstocks ability to raise capital and the availability of future financing; hotstocks lack of operating history; unforeseeable deficiencies in the development of hotstocks product candidates; uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future for hotstocks research and development initiatives; hotstocks ability to manage its research, development, growth and operating expenses; the potential failure of clinical trials to demonstrate acceptable levels of safety and efficacy of hotstocks product candidates; hotstocks ability to retain key management and other personnel; risks related to fluctuations in medicinal cannabinoid markets in Canada and worldwide; uncertainties regarding hotstocks ongoing collaborative and manufacturing partnerships; uncertainties regarding results of researching and developing products for human use; hotstocks competes in a highly competitive and evolving industry; hotstocks ability to obtain and maintain current and future intellectual property protection; and other risks and uncertainties and factors. These risks, uncertainties and other factors should be considered carefully, and investors should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking information.
Any forward-looking information speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws, hotstocks disclaims any intent or obligation to update or revise such forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise.
