Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements”. These statements are based on the current
expectations and views of future events and developments of the management of AB InBev and are
naturally subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The forward-looking statements contained
in this release include statements relating to the Combination, and other statements other than historical
facts. Forward-looking statements include statements typically containing words such as “will”, “may”,
“should”, “believe”, “intends”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “targets”, “estimates”, “likely”, “foresees” and words
of similar import. All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views
of the management of AB InBev, are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties about AB InBev, and
are dependent on many factors, some of which are outside of AB InBev’s control. There are important
factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different,
including, among others, the risks relating to the dissolved company Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (the
“former AB InBev”) described under Item 3.D of the former AB InBev’s Annual Report on Form 20-F
(“Form 20-F”) filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on 14 March 2016, the
principal risks described on pages 16 to 17 of SABMiller’s Annual Report and Accounts for the year
ended 31 March 2016 and the risks described under “Risk Factors” of Newbelco SA/NV’s Registration
Statement on Form F-4, filed with the SEC on 26 August 2016. Other unknown or unpredictable factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. There can be
no certainty that the proposed transactions will be completed on the terms described herein or at all.
The forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that
are included elsewhere, including the former AB InBev’s most recent Form 20-F, Newbelco SA/NV’s
Registration Statement on Form F-4, reports furnished on Form 6-K, and any other documents that the
former AB InBev, SABMiller or AB InBev have made public. Any forward-looking statements made in this
communication are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements, and there can be no
assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by AB InBev will be realized or, even if
substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, AB InBev or its
business or operations. Except as required by law, AB InBev undertakes no obligation to publicly update
or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
