FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
These presentation slides and the related conference call contain forward-looking statements, which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding future events (such as our
progress on the multi-year transformation of our business, our ability to deliver value to our customers through highly secure, software-defined, automated and
intelligent infrastructure, our ability to deliver on our strategic priorities, our investment in growth areas, the transition of our business to software and recurring
revenues, and our ability to continue to execute well and return value to our shareholders) and the future financial performance of Cisco (including the business
outlook for Q4 FY 2017) that involve risks and uncertainties. Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are only predictions and may differ
materially from actual future events or results due to a variety of factors, including: business and economic conditions and growth trends in the networking
industry, our customer markets and various geographic regions; global economic conditions and uncertainties in the geopolitical environment; overall information
technology spending; the growth and evolution of the Internet and levels of capital spending on Internet-based systems; variations in customer demand for
products and services, including sales to the service provider market and other customer markets; the return on our investments in certain priorities, key growth
areas, and in certain geographical locations, as well as maintaining leadership in routing, switching and services; the timing of orders and manufacturing and
customer lead times; changes in customer order patterns or customer mix; insufficient, excess or obsolete inventory; variability of component costs; variations in
sales channels, product costs or mix of products sold; our ability to successfully acquire businesses and technologies and to successfully integrate and operate
these acquired businesses and technologies; our ability to achieve expected benefits of our partnerships; increased competition in our product and service
markets, including the data center market; dependence on the introduction and market acceptance of new product offerings and standards; rapid technological
and market change; manufacturing and sourcing risks; product defects and returns; litigation involving patents, intellectual property, antitrust, shareholder and
other matters, and governmental investigations; our ability to achieve the benefits of the announced restructuring and possible changes in the size and timing of
the related charges; man-made problems such as cyber-attacks, data protection breaches, computer viruses or terrorism; natural catastrophic events; a
pandemic or epidemic; our ability to achieve the benefits anticipated from our investments in sales, engineering, service, marketing and manufacturing activities;
our ability to recruit and retain key personnel; our ability to manage financial risk, and to manage expenses during economic downturns; risks related to the global
nature of our operations, including our operations in emerging markets, currency fluctuations and other international factors; changes in provision for income
taxes, including changes in tax laws and regulations or adverse outcomes resulting from examinations of our income tax returns; potential volatility in operating
results; and other factors listed in Cisco’s most recent reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K filed on February 21, 2017 and September 8, 2016, respectively. The
financial information contained in these presentation slides and the related conference call should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in Cisco’s most recent reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K as each may be amended from time to time. Cisco’s results of
operations for the three and nine months ended April 29, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of Cisco’s operating results for any future periods. Any projections in
these presentation slides and the related conference call are based on limited information currently available to Cisco, which is subject to change. Although any
such projections and the factors influencing them will likely change, Cisco will not necessarily update the information, since Cisco will only provide guidance at
certain points during the year. Such information speaks only as of the date of these presentation slides and the related conference call.
