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
continued execution on our strategy, our ability to continue to innovate and grow our business, the continued criticality of the network to the business success of
our customers, the momentum of our intent-based networking portfolio, continued progress in shifting our business toward more software and recurring revenue,
and our ability to continue to execute well, deliver profitable growth and return capital to our shareholders) and the future financial performance of Cisco 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 Ciscos most recent
reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K filed on November 21, 2017 and September 7, 2017 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 Ciscos most recent reports
on Forms 10-Q and 10-K as each may be amended from time to time. Ciscos results of operations for the three and six months ended January 27, 2018 are not

limited information currently available to Cisco, which is subject to change. Although any such projections and the factors influencing them will likely change, Cisco
