有關前瞻性陳述之警語

本次的當前報告書(本“表格8-K”) 8-K 含有與1933年證券法第27A條和1934年證券交易所法第21E條的“前瞻性”聲明,涉及重大風險和不確定性。所有聲明,除非是歷史事實,否則都是前瞻性聲明,包括:關於拟議交易的預期時間安排和結構;各方完成拟議交易的能力,考慮各種結束條件;預期拟議交易的益處,如改善運營、提升收入和現金流、協同效應、增長潛力、市場形象、業務計劃、擴展組合和財務實力;在完成拟議交易後NewCo的競爭能力和地位;法律、經濟和監管條件;以及任何上述情況下的假設。前瞻性聲明涉及未來情況和結果,以及其他不是歷史事實的聲明,有時被以下單詞識別:“可能,” “將,” “應該,” “潛在,” “打算,” “期待,” “努力,” “尋求,” “預期,” “估計,” “低估,” “高估,” “相信,” “計劃,” “可能,” “會,” “項目,” “預測,” “繼續,” “目標”,或這些詞的反義詞或其他類似詞語或表達,牽涉到TechTarget或NewCo的期望、策略、優先事項、計劃或意圖。前瞻性聲明基於目前的計劃、估計和期望,而這些都可能面臨風險、不確定性和假設。如果這些風險或不確定性中的一個或多個成真,或者潛在的假設被證明不正確,實際結果可能與此類前瞻性聲明所指示或預期的有很大差異。我們無法保證這些計劃、估計或期望將會實現,因此,實際結果可能與這些前瞻性聲明中的任何計劃、估計或期望有很大不同。

導致實際結果與計畫、估計或期望大相逕庭的重要因素包括但不限於:拟議交易的一個或多個結束條件(包括某些監管批准)可能無法按時滿足或放棄,政府實體可能禁止、延遲或拒絕批准拟議交易的實現,可能要求在批准過程中附加條件、限制或限制,或者TechTarget的股東可能無法獲得所需批准;拟議交易可能無法按TechTarget、NewCo或Informa預期的時間軸完成,甚至可能完全不予以完成;由拟議交易產生的意外成本、費用或開支;在拟議交易完成後,預期NewCo的財務表現存在不確定性;未能實現拟議交易預期的益處,包括由於拟議交易完成或將与Informa tech數字业务相關部分整合之遲延而導致;NewCo實施其業務策略的能力;實現NewCo的收入和成本協同效應存在的困難與遲延;可能導致拟議交易終止的任何事件的發生;拟議交易相關的潛在訴訟或其他解決方案或調查,可能影響拟議交易的時間或發生,並導致防禦、賠償和責任的重大成本;法律、監管和税收制度的演變;美國和其他地區經濟、金融、政治和監管條件的變化,以及促使不確定性和波動性、自然和 人為災難;內部動亂,大流行病,以及可能導致法規、規章、貿易和政策變更的環境控制項;以及煤和Arch業務內在的其他風險。所有這些因素都難以預測,超出了CONSOL和Arch的控制範圍,並面臨著額外的風險和不確定性,包括CONSOL截至2023年12月31日的年度報告上所詳述的,Form 災害、社會動蕩、大流行、地緣政治不確定性及可能源自當前或隨後美國政府管理層更改的立法、監管、貿易和政策變化等條件;由於拟議交易導致的管理時間中斷對進行中業務運營的影響風險;拟議交易實施過程中的某些限制可能會影響TechTarget追求某些業務機會或戰略交易的能力;TechTarget、NewCo和Informa是否能夠滿足有關拟議交易的會計和稅務處理的預期;與拟議交易相關的任何公告可能對TechTarget普通股的市場價格產生不利影響的風險;拟議交易及其公告可能對TechTarget保留客戶、保留及招聘關鍵人員、與客戶、供應商、員工、股東、策略合作夥伴和其他業務關係之維持關係、營運結果及業務普遍產生負面影響;市場對TechTarget及Informa Tech數字業務相關產品和服務的接受程度;大流行病和未來健康流行病對TechTarget業務及其客戶營運的影響;影響網絡、互聯網廣告和信息技術行業的經濟或監管條件或其他趨勢的變化;數據隱私和人工智能法律、規則和法規;外匯匯率的影響;面對區域银行业不穩定、資本市場中的紊亂、经济制裁和经济放缓或衰退、通货膨胀上升和利率波动在TechTarget及Informa Tech數字业务的結果和TechTarget提交给SEC的文件中包括的其他事项的全球经济面临的特定宏观经济因素,包括 10-K 截至2023年12月31日結束的財政年度。這些風險以及與拟議交易相關的其他風險,在2024年10月25日提交的《最終授權書/招股意向書》中有更詳細的討論,並可能包含在已提交或將提交給SEC(當其可用時)的其他相關資料中。儘管此處及在《最終授權書/招股意向書》中呈現的風險因素被認為是代表性的,但不應將任何此類列表視為所有潛在風險和不確定性的完整陳述。未列出的因素可能對實現前瞻性陳述構成重大的額外障礙。我們警告您不要過度依賴這些前瞻性陳述,因為它們並不代表未來業績或結果的保證,我們的實際業績和結果,包括但不限於我們的實際營運結果、財務狀況和流動性,以及我們運營的新市場或市場板塊的發展,可能與本通訊中包含的前瞻性陳述所述或顯示的有實質不同。


任何前瞻性聲明僅反映此通訊之日期。TechTarget、NewCo或Informa均不對更新任何前瞻性聲明負責,除非法律要求,不得基於新資訊、發展、未來事件或其他原因。本通訊的未來發行或在TechTarget旅遊的投資者.techtarget.com網站或Informa的www.informa.com/investors網站中以存檔形式持續提供,不應被視為對這些聲明於任何未來日期的更新。對這些聲明在任何未來日期的重申或再次確認。 對這些聲明在任何未來日期的重申或再次確認。

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than historical facts, are forward-looking statements, including: statements regarding the expected timing and structure of the proposed transaction; the ability of the parties to complete the proposed transaction considering the various closing conditions; the expected benefits of the proposed transaction, such as improved operations, enhanced revenues and cash flow, synergies, growth potential, market profile, business plans, expanded portfolio and financial strength; the competitive ability and position of NewCo following completion of the proposed transaction; legal, economic, and regulatory conditions; and any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements concern future circumstances and results and other statements that are not historical facts and are sometimes identified by the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “endeavor,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “overestimate,” “underestimate,” “believe,” “plan,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “target,” or the negatives of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern TechTarget’s or NewCo’s expectations, strategy, priorities, plans, or intentions. Forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, and expectations that are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that such plans, estimates, or expectations will be achieved, and therefore, actual results may differ materially from any plans, estimates, or expectations in such forward-looking statements.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such plans, estimates, or expectations include, among others: that one or more closing conditions to the proposed transaction, including certain regulatory approvals, may not be satisfied or waived, on a timely basis or otherwise, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay, or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the proposed transaction, may require conditions, limitations, or restrictions in connection with such approvals or that the required approval by the shareholders of TechTarget may not be obtained; the risk that the proposed transaction may not be completed in the time frame expected by TechTarget, NewCo or Informa, or at all; unexpected costs, charges, or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction; uncertainty of the expected financial performance of NewCo following completion of the proposed transaction; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the proposed transaction or integrating the relevant portion


of Informa tech digital businesses with the business of TechTarget; the ability of NewCo to implement its business strategy; difficulties and delays in achieving revenue and cost synergies of NewCo; the occurrence of any event that could give rise to termination of the proposed transaction; potential litigation in connection with the proposed transaction or other settlements or investigations that may affect the timing or occurrence of the proposed transaction or result in significant costs of defense, indemnification, and liability; evolving legal, regulatory, and tax regimes; changes in economic, financial, political, and regulatory conditions, in the United States and elsewhere, and other factors that contribute to uncertainty and volatility, natural and man-made disasters, civil unrest, pandemics, geopolitical uncertainty, and conditions that may result from legislative, regulatory, trade, and policy changes associated with the current or subsequent U.S. administration; risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact TechTarget’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; TechTarget’s, NewCo’s and Informa’s ability to meet expectations regarding the accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of TechTarget’s common stock; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of TechTarget to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees, stockholders, strategic partners and other business relationships and on its operating results and business generally; market acceptance of TechTarget’s and the relevant portion of Informa Tech digital businesses’ products and services; the impact of pandemics and future health epidemics and any related economic downturns, on TechTarget’s business and the markets in which it and its customers operate; changes in economic or regulatory conditions or other trends affecting the internet, internet advertising and information technology industries; data privacy and artificial intelligence laws, rules, and regulations; the impact of foreign currency exchange rates; certain macroeconomic factors facing the global economy, including instability in the regional banking sector, disruptions in the capital markets, economic sanctions and economic slowdowns or recessions, rising inflation and interest rate fluctuations on TechTarget’s and the relevant portion of Informa Tech digital businesses’ results and other matters included in TechTarget’s filings with the SEC, including in Item 1A of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus filed on October 25, 2024 and may be contained in other relevant materials that are filed or will be filed with the SEC (when they become available). While the list of factors presented here and in the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements as they are not guarantees of future performance or outcomes and that actual performance and outcomes, including, without limitation, our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of new markets or market segments in which we operate, may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this communication.

Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this communication. None of TechTarget, NewCo or Informa undertakes any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or developments, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Neither future distribution of this communication nor the continued availability of this communication in archive form on TechTarget’s website at investor.techtarget.com or Informa’s website at www.informa.com/investors should be deemed to constitute an update or re-affirmation of these statements as of any future date.
