 or industry conditions. The prospective financial information summarized in this section is not being included in this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement in order to induce any HomeStreet shareholder to vote in favor of any proposals to be voted on at the HomeStreet special meeting or any Mechanics shareholder to execute and return written consents in favor of the Mechanics merger proposal. The accompanying prospective financial information was not prepared for the purpose of, or with a view toward, public disclosure or with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information, published guidelines of the SEC regarding forward-looking statements or generally accepted accounting principles. Subject to the above, the prospective financial information included in this section has been provided by HomeStreet’s management and Mechanics’ management as described in this section. No independent registered public accounting firm has audited, reviewed, examined, compiled or applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to the accompanying prospective financial information and, accordingly, no independent public account firm has expressed any opinion or given any other form of assurance with respect thereto or its achievability and assumes no responsibility for the prospective financial information and disclaims any association with the prospective financial information. The reports by Crowe LLP incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement relate to HomeStreet’s and Mechanics’ previously issued financial statements. They do not extend to the prospective financial information and should not be read to do so. In light of the foregoing, and taking into account that the HomeStreet special meeting will be held several months after the prospective financial information was prepared, as well as the uncertainties inherent in any forecasted information, HomeStreet shareholders and Mechanics shareholders are strongly cautioned not to place unwarranted reliance on such information, and HomeStreet and Mechanics urge all HomeStreet shareholders and Mechanics shareholders to review HomeStreet’s most recent SEC filings for descriptions of HomeStreet’s reported financial results and the financial statements of HomeStreet incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement, as well as the financial statements of Mechanics included in this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement.
