 do not intend to pay dividends on our Common Stock, so any returns will be limited to the value of its stock. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. In addition, future debt or other financing arrangements may contain terms prohibiting or limiting the amount of dividends that may be declared or paid on our Common Stock. Any return to stockholders will therefore be limited in the foreseeable future to the appreciation of the market price (if any) of our stock. We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company”, and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies may make our Common Stock less attractive to investors. We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure, not being required to have its internal control over financial reporting audited by our independent registered public accounting firm under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“Section 404”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We may take advantage of these exemptions until the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of the consummation of our IPO or until we are no longer an emerging growth company, whichever is earlier. We will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such five-year period if certain earlier events occur, including if we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, our annual gross revenues equal or exceed $1.235 billion or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period prior to such time. In particular, in this prospectus on, we have provided only two years of audited financial statements and have not included all of the executive compensation related information that would be required
