Biographical and other information regarding Mr. Elguicze is set forth in the Company’s proxy statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2023, under the section “Management,” and such information is incorporated by reference herein.

 

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Elguicze and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Elguicze was selected as interim PAO, and there are no family relationships between Mr. Elguicze and any of the Company’s directors or executive officers. There have been no transactions involving Mr. Elguicze that would be required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

All such statements are based upon current expectations of embecta and involve a number of business risks and uncertainties. Actual results could vary materially from anticipated results described, implied or projected in any forward-looking statement. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the company's control. For a discussion of certain factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations in any forward-looking statements see our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the SEC. embecta expressly disclaims any undertaking to update or revise any forward looking statements set forth herein to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, except as required by applicable law or regulation.
