Operator
Welcome to the conference call to discuss the proposed acquisition of AMS. [Operator Instructions] As a reminder, this conference call is being recorded for replay purposes.
Before I turn the call over to your host, Mr. Gary Burnison, let me first read a cautionary statement to investors. Certain statements made in the call today, such as those related to the USD converted purchase price, the number of shares Korn Ferry stock to be issued in the transaction, the timing of consummation of the transaction, the expected benefits of the transaction including the global leadership position of the combined company, the combined company’s expanded capabilities, transaction, synergies, future financial and operating results and the combined company’s plans, objectives and expectations constitute forward-looking statements within the meeting of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Although the company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, investors are cautioned not to place under due reliance on such statements. Such statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including the inability to timely complete or complete at all the transaction, the inability to realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, economic conditions and the ability of Korn Ferry and AMS prior to the closing and the combined company following the closing to maintain relationships with the clients and suppliers and retain key employees.
