    2  Safe Harbor Statement  Certain statements in this presentation and responses to various questions include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding USU’s future role with family nurse practitioner’s, projected gross margins, assumptions regarding LTV, and our low customer acquisition costs and teaching costs creating favorable gross margins, and our projected annual revenue rate per campus. The words “believe,” “may,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “should,” “plan,” “could,” “target,” “potential,” “is likely,” “will,” “expect” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from those in the forward-looking statements include the continued effectiveness of our online marketing, the ability to hold academic teaching costs in line, how students react to our hybrid pre-licensure BSN program over time, and the Company’s ability to enter into partnerships with health care organizations to establish new campuses and/or finance those campuses. Further information on our risk factors is contained in our filings with the SEC, including the 10-K dated July 13, 2018. Any forward-looking statement made by us herein speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
