Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation includes forward-looking statements. Demandware, Inc. (“Demandware” or the “Company”) has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current
expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting its business. Forward-looking statements should not be read as guarantees of future
performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements
are based on information available at the date of this presentation and management‟s good faith belief as of such date with respect to future events, and are subject to risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors
that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:
• the Company‟s ability to attract new clients to enter into subscriptions for its solution;
• the Company‟s ability to service those clients effectively and induce them to renew and upgrade their deployments of the Company‟s solution;
• the Company‟s ability to expand its sales organization to address effectively the new industries, geographies and types of organizations the Company intends to target;
• the Company‟s ability to accurately forecast revenue and appropriately plan its expenses;
• continued acceptance of SaaS as an effective method for delivering software solutions;
• the Company‟s ability to protect and defend its intellectual property;
• costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement and other claims;
• events in the markets for the Company‟s solution and alternatives to the Company‟s solution, as well as in the United States and global markets generally;
• changes in the competitive environment in the Company‟s industry and the markets in which the Company operates; and
• other factors discussed under “Risk Factors ” and “Management‟s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in periodic filings with the
     Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
In addition, in this presentation, the words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “predict,” “potential” and similar expressions, as they
relate to the Company, business and management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the future events and
circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. The Company assumes no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting future performance or results, except
to the extent required by applicable laws. If the Company updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates
with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

  • 5. Forward-Looking Statements This presentation includes forward-looking statements. Demandware, Inc. (“Demandware” or the “Company”) has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting its business. Forward-looking statements should not be read as guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the date of this presentation and management‟s good faith belief as of such date with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to: • the Company‟s ability to attract new clients to enter into subscriptions for its solution; • the Company‟s ability to service those clients effectively and induce them to renew and upgrade their deployments of the Company‟s solution; • the Company‟s ability to expand its sales organization to address effectively the new industries, geographies and types of organizations the Company intends to target; • the Company‟s ability to accurately forecast revenue and appropriately plan its expenses; • continued acceptance of SaaS as an effective method for delivering software solutions; • the Company‟s ability to protect and defend its intellectual property; • costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement and other claims; • events in the markets for the Company‟s solution and alternatives to the Company‟s solution, as well as in the United States and global markets generally; • changes in the competitive environment in the Company‟s industry and the markets in which the Company operates; and • other factors discussed under “Risk Factors ” and “Management‟s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In addition, in this presentation, the words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “predict,” “potential” and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company, business and management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the future events and circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting future performance or results, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If the Company updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
