Key to Jade's financial performance is to have success in exploring for and locating commercial hydrocarbons. Exploration
is subject to technical risks and uncertainty of outcome. Jade may not find any or sufficient hydrocarbon reserves and
resources to commercialise which would adversely impact the financial performance of Jade.
In the event that Jade is successful in locating commercial quantities of hydrocarbon through exploration, or purchases a
development project, then that development could be delayed or unsuccessful for a number of reasons including extreme
weather, unanticipated operational occurrences, failure to obtain necessary approvals, insufficient funds, a drop-in
commodity price, supply chain failure, unavailability of appropriate labour, or an increase in costs. If one or more of these
occurrences has a material impact then Jade's operational and financial performance may be negatively affected.
The Company has observed that in response to COVID-19, governments globally have imposed restrictions on the
movement of citizens and limited non-essential services and activities. Governments around the world have also
recommended or enforced restrictions on both domestic and international travel in order to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Given the ongoing uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 restrictions, it is not currently possible to assess the full impact of
COVID-19 on the Company's business. However, a prolonged financial reduction may impact on the commodity price and
the availability of labour or other costs associated with the Company's business. These effects may be felt both domestically
and internationally, for an unspecified duration. A number of aspects of the Company's business may also be directly or
indirectly impacted by government, regulatory or health authority actions, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines and
travel restrictions associated with COVID-19.
