NO OFFER OR ADVICE / INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY
Nothing on this website is an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security, and FICA is not soliciting any action based on this website. The Website is for informational purposes only and is intended to provide general information regarding FICA’s capabilities for prospective portfolio companies and management teams only. You acknowledge and agree that nothing on the Website is intended to be, or should be considered, investment, tax accounting, or legal advice and nothing on the Website should be relied upon for such purposes. Nothing in the Website should be deemed a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security or other investment or a recommendation to pursue any investment style or strategy. You further acknowledge and agree that the Website is not intended to and does not constitute an offer or a solicitation of an offer to enter into an investment advisory relationship. Dated Content speaks only as of the date indicated.The past performance of any investment, investment strategy, or investment style is not indicative of future performance.
This Website does not provide specific investing advice or strategies to any individual. You agree that FICA will not be liable for any action you take or decision you make in reliance on any Content.
PAST PERFORMANCE; FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Nothing contained on the Website constitutes a guarantee, projection or prediction of future events or results. Past performance and past investment activity information is not necessarily indicative of future results. There can be no assurance that FICA will be able to implement its investment strategies and investment approaches or achieve its investment objectives. Trends and historical events do not imply, forecast or predict future events. There can be no assurance that the assumptions made or the beliefs and expectations currently held by FICA will prove correct and actual events and circumstances may vary significantly.
Certain Content may constitute “forward-looking statements,” which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, the operations and performance of our businesses. Due to various risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on such forward-looking statements, and no representation or warranty is made as to future events or results or such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement.
Certain Content (including certain forward-looking statements and information) has been obtained from sources other than FICA. In addition, certain information contained herein may have been obtained from companies in which investments have been made by FICA or its affiliates. While such sources are believed to be reliable, none of FICA, any fund, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, members, shareholders, or their affiliates, or any other person, assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of such information, and FICA is under no obligation to update or keep current such information. The Website is not intended to, and does not, include all information necessary to make the statements herein not misleading.
OPERATING PARTNERS AND SENIOR ADVISORS
“Operating Partners” and “Senior Advisors” are not employees or affiliates of FICA although they may be compensated by FICA, its funds, or its portfolio companies. The nature of the relationship varies considerably; compensation can include retainers and expense reimbursements, such as for travel. Payments to Operating Partners and Senior Advisors are not deemed paid to or received by FICA and do not offset the management fee or any other fee paid to FICA. From time to time, FICA adds additional Operating Partners and Senior Advisors who were not acting as such, and thus were not named in offering documents, at the time of a fund’s offering.
RISKS OF INVESTING
Any investment strategy described on the Website entails various substantial risks, and there can be no guarantee that the investment objectives of such strategies will be achieved. These risks relate to, among other things: the highly competitive market for investment opportunities; dependence on FICA’s ability to identify and consummate suitable investments and add value to its portfolio companies; general risks associated with portfolio companies’ businesses; changes in economic or market conditions, legal or regulatory requirements and tax laws; reliance on portfolio company management teams; costs associated with investing; and the ability to recruit and retain talented and well-qualified investment professionals. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence merely identifies at a high level some of the risk factors associated with the investment strategies described on this Website and does not, by any means, purport to provide a complete and sufficiently detailed description of the various substantial risks associated with such strategies.
