Information
Certain statements included in this press release may constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the

of 1934, as amended, which reflect HCFT's current views with
respect to, among other things, the Company's operations, financial
performance and financial condition. Forward-looking
statements are statements that are not historical facts and are
subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, many of which are
hard to predict and generally beyond HCFT's control. These
statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "should,"
"project," "could," "plan," "goal," "potential," 'estimate," "pro
forma," "seek," "continue," "intend" or "anticipate" or the
negative thereof or comparable terminology, and include discussions
of strategy, financial projections, guidance and estimates
(including their underlying assumptions), statements regarding
plans, objectives, expectations or consequences of announced
transactions, and statements about the future performance,
operations, products and services of HCFT and its
subsidiaries. The Company cautions readers not to place undue
reliance on these statements. These forward-looking
statements are subject to a variety of risks and
uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important
factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ
materially from those indicated in these statements. HCFT
believes these factors include but are not limited to these

the section entitled "Risk Factors" in its quarterly report on Form
10-Q for fiscal quarter ended June 30,
2018, as such factors may be updated from time to time in
its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") which are accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Consequently, actual results and experience may materially differ
