Safe Harbor
Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can
identify those so-called "forward-looking statements" by words such as "may,"
"will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates,"
"predicts," "potential," or "continue," or the negative of those words and
other comparable words. Comcast Corporation ("Comcast") wishes to take
advantage of the "safe harbor" provided for by the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and you are cautioned that actual events or
results may differ materially from the expectations expressed in such
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of Comcast. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to
(1) the effects of legislative and regulatory changes; (2) the potential for
increased competition; (3) technological changes; (4) the need to generate
substantial growth in the subscriber base by successfully launching, marketing
and providing services in identified markets; (5) pricing pressures which could
affect demand for Comcast's services; (6) Comcast's ability to expand its
distribution; (7) changes in labor, programming, equipment and capital costs;
(8) Comcast's continued ability to create or acquire programming and products
that customers will find attractive; (9) future acquisitions, strategic
partnerships and divestitures; (10) general business and economic conditions;
(11) other risks described from time to time in Comcast's periodic reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and (12) with respect to
statements relating to the proposed combination of Comcast and AT&T Broadband,
factors that could cause actual results of the combined businesses of Comcast
and AT&T Broadband to differ materially from expected results for such
businesses, including failure to integrate the businesses successfully or to
achieve the expected combination benefits.
