SC3 Network

Investment Disclosures

Important information about investment risk, educational content, research tools, simulated results, market data, and the developing SC3 Investment Network.

Effective: September 6, 2026
Pre-launch Disclosures

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.

SC3 is designed to support learning, research, disciplined decision-making, and investing experience. It cannot predict future market performance or guarantee investment results.

01

Educational and Informational Purpose

MySC3 and the SC3 Investment Network are being developed primarily for educational, informational, research, and investing-experience purposes.

Content presented through MySC3, StockConfidence, StockCapitalization, StockChallenges, or related SC3 properties should not be interpreted as individualized investment advice, financial advice, legal advice, tax advice, accounting advice, or personalized professional guidance.

Information is intended to help users strengthen their own research and decision-making process.

02

No Recommendation to Buy or Sell

Discussion of a company, security, sector, market, strategy, investment idea, challenge position, ranking, research result, or educational example does not by itself constitute a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, short, or otherwise transact in any security or financial instrument.

Every investor has different objectives, financial circumstances, risk tolerances, tax considerations, time horizons, and liquidity needs.

Users are responsible for determining whether any investment decision is appropriate for their own circumstances.

03

Investment Risk

All investing involves risk, including the possibility of losing some or all of the money invested.

Stocks and other financial assets can decline rapidly and substantially in value. Volatility, liquidity, market conditions, company events, economic developments, interest rates, geopolitical events, and other factors may affect investment results.

No SC3 content, research process, challenge result, ranking, score, model, framework, or educational resource can eliminate investment risk.

04

Past and Historical Performance

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Historical returns, previous investment outcomes, charts, challenge results, rankings, examples, case studies, or observations should not be relied upon as evidence that the same or similar results will occur in the future.

Market conditions change, and strategies that performed well during one period may perform differently in another.

05

Simulated and Hypothetical Results

StockChallenges and other SC3 features may include simulated portfolios, hypothetical investments, competitions, model results, rankings, or other activities that do not involve actual brokerage execution.

Simulated results have important limitations. They may not fully reflect liquidity constraints, bid-ask spreads, commissions, taxes, execution delays, slippage, market impact, emotional decision-making, position-size limitations, or other conditions associated with investing real money.

There is no representation that a user would achieve the same results in an actual investment account.

06

Market and Financial Data

SC3 properties may display or reference market prices, company information, financial statements, ratios, estimates, news, charts, historical information, screening results, or other financial data.

Such information may originate from third-party sources and may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, revised, unavailable, or subject to differing calculation methodologies.

Users should independently verify material information before relying on it for an investment decision.

07

Research Tools and Models

Screeners, scoring systems, rankings, research frameworks, indicators, filters, formulas, comparisons, automated outputs, or other analytical tools are intended to assist research rather than replace independent judgment.

A high score, favorable screen, technical signal, research classification, or similar output does not guarantee that a security will increase in value.

Likewise, an unfavorable result does not guarantee that a security will decline.

08

Forward-Looking Information

Some SC3 content may discuss expectations, estimates, forecasts, potential catalysts, future events, company objectives, analyst projections, growth assumptions, or other forward-looking information.

Forward-looking information is inherently uncertain and may prove incorrect.

Actual results can differ materially from expectations because of company-specific, industry, economic, market, regulatory, competitive, technological, geopolitical, and other factors.

09

Third-Party Information and Links

MySC3 may link to or reference third-party websites, financial platforms, research providers, market-data sources, news organizations, public filings, tools, services, or other external resources.

SC3 does not control third-party websites and cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness, security, availability, policies, or practices of those resources.

A link or reference does not necessarily represent an endorsement of the third party or its products, services, opinions, or information.

10

Potential Positions and Conflicts

As the SC3 Network develops, contributors, owners, participants, partners, or other persons associated with content may from time to time have financial interests in securities or companies discussed through the network.

When a material ownership position, compensation arrangement, sponsorship, affiliate relationship, or other potential conflict is relevant to specific content, an appropriate disclosure should accompany that content.

Users should not assume that the absence of a general statement on this page describes every contributor's personal holdings or financial relationships.

11

Advertising, Sponsorships, and Affiliate Relationships

MySC3 does not currently rely on this page to represent that any particular advertising, sponsorship, affiliate, referral, or paid promotional relationship exists.

If SC3 later receives compensation from an advertiser, sponsor, affiliate program, issuer, financial service, research provider, data provider, or other commercial partner, disclosures should be provided when required and where relevant to the affected content.

Commercial relationships should not be presented in a manner that intentionally disguises paid promotion as independent editorial analysis.

12

Community and Participant Content

Future SC3 features may allow users or challenge participants to share investment ideas, opinions, selections, comments, rankings, research observations, or other user-generated content.

Statements made by users or participants should be understood as the views of those individuals and not automatically as the views, recommendations, or endorsements of MySC3 or the SC3 Investment Network.

User-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, outdated, or unsuitable for another investor.

13

No Guarantee of Outcomes

SC3 does not guarantee investment profits, portfolio growth, challenge success, improved financial outcomes, research accuracy, educational achievement, or any particular investment result.

Educational resources and research tools may help users develop a more structured process, but better process does not guarantee profitable results.

Users remain responsible for the consequences of their own investment decisions.

14

Professional Advice

Users should consider consulting qualified professionals when appropriate, including registered investment professionals, financial professionals, attorneys, tax professionals, or accountants.

SC3 content should not be used as a substitute for professional advice when an individual's circumstances require personalized guidance.

15

Pre-Launch Status

MySC3 is currently under development.

Certain pages, descriptions, account concepts, services, integrations, and other features may represent planned functionality rather than currently available functionality.

Disclosures should be reviewed again before public launch so that they accurately reflect the final business structure, website functionality, data sources, monetization methods, ownership relationships, and operating practices.

16

Changes to These Disclosures

These disclosures may be revised as MySC3 and the broader SC3 Investment Network evolve.

Additional disclosures may become necessary if the network introduces new research tools, subscriptions, paid services, partnerships, sponsorships, affiliate relationships, market-data services, account functionality, community features, or other capabilities.

Updated disclosures should be posted on this page with a revised effective date when appropriate.

Before Public Launch

Final disclosures should match the actual SC3 business.

Before production launch, these disclosures should be reviewed against the final data providers, monetization model, ownership interests, sponsorships, affiliate relationships, account system, research functionality, challenge rules, and other operating practices.
