There is a risk that the target annualized dividend rate of 16 cents per share post-merger may have an impact on Barrick’s financial flexibility to pursue new business initiatives, mergers, acquisitions, partnerships and joint ventures with third parties. Often, but not always, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as “will”, “expect”, “target” or similar expressions. These statements are based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analyses, and opinions of management made in light of management’s experience and perception of trends, current conditions, and expected developments, as well as other factors that management considers to be relevant and reasonable at the date that such statements are made. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of Barrick, as applicable, to be materially different from those anticipated, estimated, or intended, including: the risk that litigation relating to the merger may be commenced which may prevent, delay or give rise to significant costs or liabilities on the part of Barrick or Randgold; the risk that the anticipated benefits and value creation from the merger will not be realized, or may not be realized in the expected timeframes; the risk that Randgold may not be integrated successfully following the merger; risks relating to certain of the jurisdictions in which Barrick or Randgold operates, in respect of which there have been recent changes and/or proposed changes in mining laws and/or tax laws and where governments may seek a greater share of mineral wealth; and the risks and assumptions described under the headings “Forward-Looking Information” and “Risk Factors” in Barrick’s circular dated October 4, 2018, relating to the merger and Barrick’s continuous disclosure materials filed from time to time under its issuer profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
