SEC Materials
Certain information provided through this Site has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (such materials being referred to as
"SEC Materials"). The SEC Materials and other public disclosures contained in or
accessible through this Site may contain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as
likely, believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, position and variations
of such words and similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as
will, would, should, could, may or similar expressions. These forward-looking
statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, all of
which will or may change over time or may be incorrect, and neither Apollo nor
any of its affiliates assumes any duty to update or correct any forward-looking
statements contained in or accessible through the Site. Actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements and
future results could differ materially from historic performance.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ
materially from any forward-looking statements or historic performance: our
ability to attract and retain key personnel, including our principals; the
performance of the funds we manage; our ability to sustain and manage growth;
the risk of third-party litigation; our ability to manage conflicts of interest;
employee misconduct; fluctuations in our revenue and profitability; the
introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and
strategies; economic conditions; changes in interest rates and financial and
capital markets; competitive conditions; the rate and timing of redemptions by
our investors; subjectivity in valuation methodologies; the illiquidity of our
assets; the use of distressed debt strategies; failure of risk management
systems; foreign exchange, political, social and economic uncertainties and
risks; risks in using prime brokers and custodians; adverse tax treatment; and
the impact, extent and timing of technological changes and legislative and
regulatory actions and reforms.
Apollo’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-150141), as
amended, and subsequent reports filed with the SEC, accessible on the SEC's
website at www.sec.gov and on this Site, discuss these factors
in more detail and identify additional risk factors and factors that can affect
forward-looking statements.
