Disclaimer

This presentation contains forward-looking statements about Orange, notably on objectives and trends related to Orange's financial situation, investments, results of operations, business and strategy. Although we believe these statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including matters not yet known to us or not currently considered material by us, and there can be no assurance that anticipated events will occur or that the objectives set out will actually be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, among others: the success of Orange's new strategy, risks related to information and communications technology systems generally, in particular technical failures of networks, the deterioration of the economic conditions prevailing in the markets in which Orange operates, fiscal and regulatory constraints and changes, growing banking and monetary regulations requirements and the results of litigation regarding regulations, competition and other matters. More detailed information on the potential risks that could affect our financial results is included in the Registration Document filed on 21 March 2019 with the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) and in the annual report (Form 20-F) filed on 16 April 2019 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Other than as required by law, Orange does not undertake any obligation to update them in light of new information or future developments.
