This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that relate to, among other things, Visa’s expectations concerning the satisfaction of the conditions and the potential commencement and timing of an exchange offer described herein. Forward-looking statements generally are identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “projects,” “outlook,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “continue” and other similar expressions. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made, are not guarantees of future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict.

Whether the conditions are satisfied and Visa conducts an exchange offer, and the timing of any such exchange offer, is subject to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

•final outcome of pending settlements in the U.S. covered litigation;

•impact of complex and evolving global regulations;

•increased scrutiny and regulation of the global payments industry;

•impact of government-imposed obligations and/or restrictions on international payments systems;

•impact of laws and regulations regarding the handling of personal data, including laws and regulations related to privacy, cybersecurity and AI;

•impact of tax examinations or disputes, or changes in tax laws;

•outcome of litigation or investigations;

•intense competition in our industry;

•dependence on our client and seller base, which may be costly to win, retain and develop;

•continued push to lower acceptance costs and challenge industry practices;

•dependence on relationships with financial institutions, acquirers, processors, sellers, payment facilitators, ecommerce platforms, fintechs and other third parties;

•our inability to maintain and enhance our brand;

•impact of global economic, political, market, health and social events or conditions;

•a disruption, failure or breach of our networks or systems, including as a result of cyber incidents or attacks;

•our inability to achieve the anticipated benefits of our acquisitions, joint ventures or strategic investments;

•our inability to attract, hire and retain a highly qualified workforce, including key management;

•the conversions of our class B-1, B-2 and C common stock or series A, B and C preferred stock into shares of class A common stock would result in voting dilution to, and could adversely impact the market price of, our existing class A common stock;

•differing interests between holders of our class B-1, B-2 and C common stock and series A, B and C preferred stock compared to our class A common stock concerning certain significant transactions; and
