 Certain information contained herein is based on, or derived from, published and unpublished information provided by independent third-party sources which Forge First believes is accurate and reliable. However, Forge First cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information. None of the Forge First Funds, the general partners of the Forge First LP Funds, Forge First or any of their respective agents, directors, officers or affiliates, makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, in respect thereof, takes responsibility for any errors and omissions which may be contained herein or accepts any liability whatsoever for any loss arising from any use of or reliance on this information.

 The 2019 results for the Forge First Funds are unaudited, net of all fees and expenses, and are based on Forge First’s best estimates at the time of this report. All returns are in local currencies. Returns expressed on this site are “time-weighted” and are not the same as mandated “money-weighted” returns used in the production of client statements. The return figures for the S&P 500 and the TSX are based on the “Total Return” figures of the associated index. Annualized Volatility, Correlation, Alpha and Beta are calculated from monthly net returns for the Class F Lead Series of each Forge First LP Fund since its inception date of August 1, 2012. The Sharpe ratio is hypothetical and is calculated using monthly standard deviation, a 1% risk-free rate and monthly net returns since the inception date for the Class F Lead Series. Class F is the Founders Class and has a reduced fee structure.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and returns may differ materially from what is expressed in such forward-looking statements.
