​ Safe harbor statement under the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995: This presentation may contain forward-
looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and
assumptions. If any such uncertainties materialize or if any of the
assumptions proves incorrect, the results of salesforce.com, inc.
could differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements we make. All statements other than
statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking,
including any projections of subscriber growth, earnings,
revenues, or other financial items and any statements regarding
strategies or plans of management for future operations,
statements of belief, any statements concerning new, planned, or
upgraded services or technology developments and customer
contracts or use of our services.
​ The risks and uncertainties referred to above include - but are not
limited to - risks associated with our new business model; our past
operating losses; possible fluctuations in our operating results and
rate of growth; interruptions or delays in our Web hosting; breach
of our security measures; the immature market in which we
operate; our relatively limited operating history; our ability to
expand, retain, and motivate our employees and manage our
growth; risks associated with new releases of our service; and
risks associated with selling to larger enterprise customers.
Further information on potential factors that could affect the
financial results of salesforce.com, inc. are included in our
registration statement (on Form S-1) and in other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These documents are
available on the SEC Filings section of this Web site.
Salesforce.com, inc. assumes no obligation and does not intend to
update these forward-looking statements.
Any unreleased services or features referenced in this or other
press releases or public statements are not currently available and
