Investor Notice
Investing in Marathon’s securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. If any of these risks were to occur, Marathon’s business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of the Company’s securities could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties Marathon describes are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks not presently known to Marathon or that Marathon currently deems immaterial may also impair business operations. In addition, the Company’s past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. See "Safe Harbor" below.
Future changes in network-wide mining difficulty rate or Bitcoin hashrate may also materially affect the future performance of Marathon's production of Bitcoin.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “plan,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue,” or comparable terminology. Such forward-looking statements are inherently subject to certain risks, trends and uncertainties, many of which the Company cannot predict with accuracy and some of which the Company might not even anticipate and involve factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or suggested. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and are advised to consider the factors listed above together with the additional factors under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K, as may be supplemented or amended by the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
