Forward-looking statements include statements about our future and statements that are not historical facts. These forward\u2010looking statements are typically identified by such words as \u201cbelieve,\u201d \u201cexpect,\u201d \u201canticipate,\u201d \u201cmay,\u201d \u201cintend,\u201d \u201coutlook,\u201d \u201cwill,\u201d \u201cestimate,\u201d \u201cforecast,\u201d \u201cproject,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d and other similar words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which will change over time. Forward-looking statements may contain beliefs, goals, intentions and expectations regarding revenues, earnings, operations, arrangements and other results, and may include statements of future performance, plans, and objectives. Forward-looking statements also include statements pertaining to our strategies for future development of our businesses and products, including Jefferies and SMBC Group\u2019s strategic alliance. In particular, forward-looking statements include statements about the potential benefits of the collaboration with SMBC Group, SMBC\u2019s intention to exchange its shares of Jefferies\u2019 voting common stock and SMBC\u2019s intention to increase its equity investment in Jefferies, as SMBC is under no obligation to do so. Forward\u2010looking statements speak only as of the date they are made; we do not assume any duty, and do not undertake, to update any forward\u2010looking statements. Furthermore, because forward\u2010looking statements represent only our belief regarding future events, many of which by their nature are inherently uncertain, the actual results or outcomes may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results or outcomes indicated in these forward-looking statements. Information regarding important factors, including Risk Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ, perhaps materially, from those in our forward-looking statements is contained in reports we file with the SEC. You should read and interpret any forward-looking statement together with reports we file with the SEC. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Different types of investments involve varying degrees of risk. Therefore, it should not be assumed that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal the corresponding indicated performance level(s).<\/p>\n<p>\nSource: Jefferies Financial Group Inc.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=bwnews&amp;sty=20230628492488r1&amp;sid=flmnd&amp;distro=nx&amp;lang=en\" style=\"width:0;height:0\" \/><span class=\"bwct31415\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"mmgallerylink\"><span id=\"mmgallerylink-phrase\">View source version on businesswire.com: <\/span><span id=\"mmgallerylink-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20230628492488\/en\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20230628492488\/en\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\nFor inquiries, please contact:<\/p>\n<p>\nJonathan Freedman<br \/>\n<br \/>Head of Marketing and Communications<br \/>\n<br \/>Jefferies Financial Group Inc.<br \/>\n<br \/><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"mailto:jfreedman@jefferies.com\">jfreedman@jefferies.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>KEYWORDS:<\/b> New York United States North America<\/p>\n<p><b>INDUSTRY KEYWORDS:<\/b> Banking Professional Services Finance<\/p>\n<p><b>MEDIA:<\/b><\/p>\n<table cellpadding=\"3\" cellspacing=\"3\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jefferies Announces Shareholder Approval of Charter Amendment NEW YORK&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211; Jefferies Financial Group Inc.
