Cash at March 31, 2020	$  936,560	$ 3,767,187

Revenue for the Quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 amounted to $Nil for both periods. Shipments of concentrate had commenced during the second quarter of 2019. Concentrate sales provisional revenues totaled approximately US$ 186,000 for the first quarter of 2020. However, until the mine commences commercial production, the net proceeds from concentrate sales are being offset against Development assets.

The Net Loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 amounted to $ 680,315 (2019: $ 779,517)   and the cash outflow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital items for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 amounted to $ 348,899 (2019:  $ 391,037).

The Company had cash balances of $ 936,560 at March 31, 2020 compared to $ 3,767,187 at March 31, 2019. The working capital deficit at March 31, 2020 amounted to $ 7,299,380 compared to a working capital deficit of $ 2,702,004 at March 31, 2019.

Subsequent to March 31, 2020 Galantas reported a proposed private placement of common shares and amendments to the terms of its loan facility with Ocean Partners UK Ltd both of which are subject to TSXV and regulatory approval. The private placement is expected to include funds raised in both UK and Canadian currency and is for a maximum of 2,833,132 shares, at an issue price of  $ 0.225 (UK£ 0.1328) per share for maximum gross proceeds of  $ 637,454 (UK£ 376,240). Provisional indications have been received for the maximum amount. The placement will be brokered and insiders of the Company are expected to participate in the placement. Galantas has also agreed on terms, subject to final documentation, of an increase of USD$ 200,000 on the outstanding loan with Ocean Partners UK Ltd. The interest rate applicable on the outstanding loan will be increased from USD 12 month LIBOR + 8.75% to USD 12 month LIBOR + 9.9% and the maturity date will be extended from 30 December 2020 to 31 December 2021. As consideration for amending the terms of the loan, Ocean will receive, upon closing of the agreements, 1,700,000 bonus warrants of Galantas subject to the rules of TSXV Policy 5.1 - Loans, Loan Bonuses, Finder's Fees and Commissions. Each bonus warrant will be exercisable for one common share of Galantas at an exercise price of $0.33 per bonus share, being 110% of the TSXV closing price the day before the announcement. The net proceeds to be raised by the private placement and the additional Ocean Partners loan are intended to be used to support mine operations and provide general working capital for the Company.

Production/Mine Development

Underground development of the decline tunnel at the Omagh gold mine, located at the base of the existing open pit, commenced in early 2017 and the mine commenced limited production of gold concentrate during the third quarter of 2018. Underground development of the decline tunnel continued to be progressed during 2018 and 2019 from feed produced in the development of the Kearney vein . The plant had continued limited production of a gold & silver concentrate using a non-toxic, froth-flotation process, ran on a batch basis from a stockpile of underground vein material plus additional feed produced from on-vein development operations until the temporary suspension  of blasting at the mine during the fourth quarter of 2019 (see Press release dated October 29, 2019). Blasting operations were being limited since all blasting must be supervised by the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) and were not sufficient for the desired level of operations.  The Company had been working with the PSNI to increase blasting availability to normal levels for an underground mine. While progress has been made and substantive investment incurred in accordance with recommendations the Company was still awaiting final approvals from the authorities to be able to implement its increased blasting protocols prior to the suspension. The arrangements, at that time were not sufficient to allow for the expansion of mine operations as envisaged by the Company's existing mine plan and until changes were agreed, the present inefficiencies caused by those arrangements form an increasing financial burden, which has proved a significant drain on the financial resources of the Company. Accordingly, to reduce costs the numbers employed at the operation were reduced from 46 to 21. Some mine operations continued at the Omagh gold mine, on a single shift. Subsequent to March 31, 2020 Galantas reported that confirmation has been received from PSNI, in regard to their satisfaction of certain secure storage and handling protocols required for an increase in blasting to a commercial level subject to financial matters being agreed. The Company now understands that these financial matters have now been mutually agreed. Ore production is suspended until finance is available to expand the underground operation.

During 2019 underground development of the decline tunnel had continued to be progressed with further crosscuts allowing access to lower levels of vein development which forms the development necessary to demarcate production panels. Prior to the suspension of blasting, the access drive on the fourth (1060) level has intersected the Kearney vein ahead of schedule and the intersection showed strongly developed mineralization. The north and south faces of the vein were channel sampled. The average of the two channels was 8.35 g/t gold over an average true width of 2.65 metres (Press release July 22, 2019). The Company also reported that drivage from the 1072 access had been taken northwards, in-vein, for approximately 40 metres. Mineralisation beyond the first 20 metres is currently excluded from the geological model, due to paucity of data. The mineralization was shown to be persistent and has been followed in an in-vein development. Two channel samples, taken across the face as the drivage was developed at 24.1m and 27.6m into the third level (1072) north development, showed a grade of 6.2g/t gold and 16.3 g/t gold respectively, each with a true width of 3 metres (Press release July 22, 2019). The vein will continue to be followed northwards on the third (1072) level and elevates potential for additional mineralisation to be added to the resource model if discovered on the adjacent first (1096), second (1084) and fourth (1060) levels. At the time the suspension of blasting was reported, underground drivages had been developed to expose the main Kearney vein on four levels with a fifth level at the point of intersection. The mine is serviced by a decline tunnel of 1 in 6 gradient, of dimensions approximately 4.5m by 4.5m.

A probe drilling campaign was subsequently carried out using the retained personnel and equipment. The results of this campaign, combined with detailed mapping of the exposed mineralisation underground suggests zones of higher width of mineralisation within the vein, linking adjacent levels. This supports an implication that such zonal mineralisation may continue at depth, with enhanced exploration potential for targeting gold resources particularly to the north and within the Company's license area. Probe drilling does not provide samples suitable for use in mineral resource estimates but can provide strong indications where mineralisation is concentrated and is of significantly less cost than core drilling. Subsequently in May 2020, the Company reported that it had filed a short technical report in respect of the probe drilling campaign. The report is available on www.sedar.com and www.galantas.com .

Milling operations had progressed during 2019 and moved to a two-shift basis in the third quarter. The processing plant, which was used formerly for open-pit operations, has had the benefit of a recent upgrade. Following the suspension of blasting operations at the mine, the processing plant continued to operate on a limited basis in the near term and is being fed from stock. In March 2020 and following UK government guidelines regarding Covid-19, processing operations temporarily ceased until later in May when the Company announced that concentrate processing has recommenced. The company carried out maintenance to the processing plant during the milling suspension, to minimise future maintenance interruptions. The restart follows a review of Northern Ireland / UK government health advice regarding Covid-19, a risk assessment and the introduction of appropriate modifications to working practices. Feedstock for the processing plant is from low grade stock until suitable arrangements are in place to recommence development underground. The number of employees that had been furloughed during the first quarter under a NI/UK government scheme has been recently reduced from seven to three. Shipments of concentrate under the off-take arrangements had commenced during the second quarter of 2019. For the first quarter of 2020 provisional revenues from concentrate sales totalled US$186,000. Until the mine reaches the commencement of commercial production, the net proceeds from concentrate sales will be offset against Development assets.

The Company is seeking strategic alternatives including reviewing its licenses and operations; and considering the possibility of engaging in a sale, joint venture, partnership or other options with third parties and alternative financing structures. The Company is actively engaged in that process.

Safety is a high priority and the company continued to invest in safety-related training and infra-structure. The zero lost time accident rate since the start of underground operations, continues. Environmental monitoring demonstrates a high level of regulatory compliance.

The detailed results and Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) are available on www.sedar.com and www.galantas.com and the highlights in this release should be read in conjunction with the detailed results and MD&A. The MD&A provides an analysis of comparisons with previous periods, trends affecting the business and risk factors.

Galantas Gold Corporation Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)

1.  Going Concern

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates that Galantas Gold Corporation (the "Company") will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management is aware, in making its assessment, of uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's future viability depends on the consolidated results of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Cavanacaw Corporation ("Cavanacaw"). Cavanacaw has a 100% shareholding in both Flintridge Resources Limited ("Flintridge") who are engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of gold properties, mainly in Omagh, Northern Ireland and Omagh Minerals Limited ("Omagh") who are engaged in the exploration of gold properties, mainly in the Republic of Ireland. The Omagh mine has an open pit mine, which was in production until 2013 when production was suspended and is reported as property, plant and equipment and as an underground mine which having established technical feasibility and commercial viability in December 2018 has resulted in associated exploration and evaluation assets being reclassified as an intangible development asset and reported as property, plant and equipment.

The going concern assumption is dependent upon forecast cash flows being met, negotiations for the extension of the short-term loans being finalized, further financing currently being negotiated being completed and blasting arrangement with the Police Service of Northern Ireland ("PSNI") being resolved. The directors assumptions in relation to future levels of production, gold prices and mine operating costs are crucial to forecast cash flows being achieved. Should production be significantly delayed, revenues fall short of expectations or operating costs and capital costs increase significantly, there may be insufficient cash flows to sustain day to day operations without seeking further finance.

Negotiations with current finance providers to extend short-term loans are progressing satisfactory. The Company is also in advanced negotiations with potential new investors to meet the financial requirements of the Company for the foreseeable future. Based on the five-year period financial projections prepared, the directors believe it's appropriate to prepare the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements on the going concern basis.

On April 17, 2020, the Company completed a share consolidation of its share capital on the basis of ten existing common shares for one new common share consolidation. All common shares, per common share amounts, stock options and warrants in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the share consolidation.

As at March 31, 2020, the Company had a deficit of $45,997,663 (December 31, 2019 - $45,317,348). Comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $297,606 (three months ended March 31, 2019 - $784,499). These losses raise material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Management is confident that it will continue as a going concern. However, this is subject to a number of factors including market conditions.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and financial position classifications used that would be necessary if the going concern assumption was not appropriate. These adjustments could be material.

2.  Incorporation and Nature of Operations

The Company was formed on September 20, 1996 under the name Montemor Resources Inc. on the amalgamation of 1169479 Ontario Inc. and Consolidated Deer Creek Resources Limited. The name was changed to European Gold Resources Inc. by articles of amendment dated July 25, 1997. On May 5, 2004, the Company changed its name from European Gold Resources Inc. to Galantas Gold Corporation. The Company was incorporated to explore for and develop mineral resource properties, principally in Europe. In 1997, it purchased all of the shares of Omagh which owns a mineral property in Northern Ireland, including a delineated gold deposit. Omagh obtained full planning and environmental consents necessary to bring its property into production.

The Company entered into an agreement on April 17, 2000, approved by shareholders on June 26, 2000, whereby Cavanacaw, a private Ontario corporation, acquired Omagh. Cavanacaw has established an open pit mine to extract the Company's gold deposit near Omagh, Northern Ireland. Cavanacaw also has developed a premium jewellery business founded on the gold produced under the name Galántas Irish Gold Limited ("Galántas"). As at July 1, 2007, the Company's Omagh mine began production and in 2013 production was suspended. On April 1, 2014, Galántas amalgamated its jewelry business with Omagh.

On April 8, 2014, Cavanacaw acquired Flintridge. Following a strategic review of its business by the Company during 2014 certain assets owned by Omagh were acquired by Flintridge.

The Company's operations include the consolidated results of Cavanacaw, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Omagh, Galántas and Flintridge.

The Company's common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") and London Stock Exchange AIM under the symbol GAL. The primary office is located at The Canadian Venture Building, 82 Richmond Street East, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5C 1P1.

3.  Basis of Preparation

Statement of compliance

7.  Exploration and Evaluation Assets

Exploration and evaluation assets are expenditures for the underground mining operations in Omagh. The Company had announced in December 2016 that it would commence the first phase of underground development and re-start concentrate shipments at its Omagh mine. Underground development of a decline tunnel, located at the base of the existing open pit, commenced in the first quarter 2017. During 2018 the mine commenced limited production of gold concentrate from feed produced in the development of the Kearney vein and in the fourth quarter Galantas reported that delivery of the first consignment of concentrate derived from underground feedstock at the mine had been made. Underground development of the decline tunnel continued to be progressed during 2019 with further crosscuts allowing access to lower levels of vein development which forms the development necessary to demarcate production panels. By the end of the third quarter of 2019 some two kilometres of underground drivages had been developed, with exposure of the main Kearney vein on four levels with a fifth level is near the point of intersection. The mine is serviced by a decline tunnel of 1 in 6 gradients, of dimensions approximately 4.5m by 4.5m. However, during the fourth quarter Galantas announced a temporary suspension of blasting operations at its Omagh gold mine. Blasting operations had been limited, since all blasting must be supervised by the PSNI. Presently the blasting arrangements are not sufficient for the desired level of operations and are not sufficient to allow for the expansion of mine operations as envisaged by the Company's existing mine plan. Until changes are agreed, the present inefficiencies caused by these blasting arrangements form an increasing financial burden, which has proved a significant drain on the financial resources of the Company. Accordingly, in order to reduce costs, while some mine operations will continue at the Omagh gold mine, consultation with the workforce has resulted in the numbers employed at the operation being reduced from 46 to 21. Some mine operations continued at the Omagh gold mine, on a single shift. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, Galantas reported that confirmation had been received from PSNI, in regard to their satisfaction of certain secure storage and handling protocols required for an increase in blasting to a commercial level subject to financial matters being agreed. The Company understands that these financial matters have now been mutually agreed. Ore production is suspended until finance is available to expand the underground operation.

 8. Decommissioning Liability

The Company's decommissioning liability is a result of mining activities at the Omagh mine in Northern Ireland. The Company estimated its decommissioning liability at March 31, 2020 based on a risk-free discount rate of 1% (December 31, 2019 - 1%) and an inflation rate of 1.50% (December 31, 2019 - 1.50%). The expected undiscounted future obligations allowing for inflation are GBP 330,000 and based on management's best estimate the decommissioning is expected to occur over the next 5 to 10 years. On March 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the liability is $597,612 (December 31, 2019 - $580,303). Changes in the provision during the three months ended March 31, 2020 are as follows:

		As at			As at
		March 31,			December 31,
		2020			2019
Decommissioning liability, beginning of period	$	580,303		$	578,242

Foreign exchange		14,596			(8,641	)
Decommissioning liability, end of period	$	597,612		$	580,303

As required by the Crown in Northern Ireland, the Company is required to provide a bond for reclamation related to the Omagh mine in the amount of GBP 300,000 (December 31, 2019 - GBP  300,000), of which GBP 300,000 was funded as of March 31, 2020 (GBP 300,000 was funded as of December 31, 2019) and reported as long-term deposit of $528,120 (December 31, 2019 - $515,220).

Foreign exchange adjustment		192,637			130,740
Financing facilities - long term portion	$	1,363,547		$	1,440,185

(i) In June 2015, the Company obtained financing in the amount of GBP 19,900 for the purchase of a vehicle. The financing is for three years at interest of 6.79% per annum with monthly principal and interest payments of GBP 377 together with a final payment in August 2019 of GBP 9,540. The financing was secured on the vehicle.

(ii) In April 2018, the Company signed a concentrate pre-payment agreement and loan facility for US$1.6 million with a United Kingdom based company (the "Lender"), with a maturity date of December 31, 2020. The interest is set at US$ 12 month LIBOR + 8.75% and payable monthly. No interest shall be charged for 6 months and repayments shall commence against deliveries in 2019. There was a US$25,000 arrangement fee.

In respect of the loan facility, a fixed and floating security, subordinated to an existing security to G&F Phelps Ltd. ("G&F Phelps"), is being put in place over Flintridge assets. G&F Phelps has a first charge on Flintridge assets in respect of its loan facility and the Lender required an intercreditor agreement between G&F Phelps and the Lender.

As consideration for the loan facility, the United Kingdom based company received 1,500,000 bonus warrants of the Company. Each bonus warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company and is subject to an initial four months plus one day hold period from the date of issuance of the bonus warrants. The bonus warrants have a maximum life of two years (the "Expiry Time"). On April 19, 2018, the 1,500,000 bonus warrants were granted. In the event that the weighted average closing price per common share of the Company is more than $2.00 per share for more than five consecutive trading days, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the Expiry Time to a date that is 30 days from the date on which the Company announces the accelerated Expiry Time by press release.

The fair value of the 1,500,000 bonus warrants was estimated at $786,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield - 0%, expected volatility - 113.55%, risk-free interest rate - 1.91% and an expected average life of 2 years.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded accretion expense of $74,742 in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of loss in regards with this loan facility (year ended December 31, 2019 - $248,238).

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense of $57,995 in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of loss in regards with this loan facility (year ended December 31, 2019 - $279,151).

Refer to note 18(iii).

11.  Convertible Debenture

On December 17, 2019, the Company closed a $1,731,190 (GBP 1,000,000) convertible debenture consisting of 3,000 units.  The convertible debenture is unsecured, is for a term of one year commencing on the date that it is issued, carries a coupon of 15% per annum and is convertible into common shares of the Company. The conversion price is fixed at $0.15, being a 25% discount to the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the issue date.

The convertible debenture has been fully subscribed by Melquart Limited ("Melquart"), an insider and control person of the Company (as defined by the TSXV). Melquart held 7,756,572 common shares equivalent to 24% of the Company at December 31, 2019. Melquart are under no obligation to convert the convertible debenture and should Melquart choose not to convert, the Company will need to raise further funds to repay the convertible debenture within 12 months.

A four month hold period will apply to common shares converted through the convertible debenture. The hold period will expire on April 18, 2020. The share issued pursuant to the convertible debenture will rank pari passu with the existing common shares issued by the Company.

Commission payable to Whitman Howard Ltd. for acting as the broker in relation to the convertible debenture offering total $86,308 (GBP 50,000).

The debentures consist of the liability component and equity component. The fair value of the liability was recorded at $1,467,110, discounted at an effective interest rate of 18%. The residual value of the debentures is allocated to the conversion feature. The value of the conversion feature was $264,080. The Company incurred transaction costs of $104,903 which was allocated pro-rata on the value of the conversion feature and the liability component.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded accretion expense of $68,666 (year ended December 31, 2019 - $12,425) and interest expense of $64,742 (year ended December 31, 2019 - $9,960) as loan interest and bank charges less deposit interest in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of loss.

The options will vest as to one third on February 13, 2019 and one third on each of the following two anniversaries. The fair value attributed to these options was $247,360 and was expensed in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and credited to equity settled share-based payments reserve. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, included in stock-based compensation is $18,954 (three months ended March 31, 2019 - $98,040) related to the vested portion of these options. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, 150,000 stock options were cancelled and therefore, $21,813 of stock-based compensation was reversed related to the unvested portion of the options cancelled.

13.  Net Loss per Common Share

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $680,315 (three months ended March 31, 2019 - $779,517) and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 32,321,472 (three months ended March 31, 2019 - 29,968,531) for basic and diluted loss per share. Diluted loss did not include the effect of 1,500,000 warrants (three months ended March 31, 2019 - 1,500,000) and 880,000 options (three months ended March 31, 2019 - 1,205,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as they are anti-dilutive. The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is adjusted for 10:1 share consolidation effective March 31, 2020.

14.  Revenues

Shipments of concentrate under the off-take arrangements commenced during the second quarter of 2019. Concentrate sales provisional revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled approximately US$186,000 (three months ended March 31, 2019 - US$nil). However, until the mine reaches the commencement of commercial production, the net proceeds from concentrate sales will be offset against Development assets.

17.  Contingency

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company's subsidiary Omagh received a payment demand from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs ("HMRC") in the amount of $535,672 (GBP 304,290) in connection with an aggregate levy arising from the removal of waste rock from the mine site during 2008 and early 2009. Omagh Minerals believed this claim to be without merit. An appeal was lodged with the Tax Tribunals Service and the hearing started at the beginning of March 2017 and following a number of adjournments was completed in August 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Tax Tribunals Service issued their judgement dismissing the appeal by Omagh in respect of the assessments. A provision has now been included in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in respect of the aggregates levy plus interest and penalty.

There is a contingent liability in respect of potential additional interest which may be applied in respect of the aggregates levy dispute. Omagh Minerals Limited is unable to make a reliable estimate of the amount of the potential additional interest that may be applied by HMRC.

(iii) On June 26, 2020, the Company announced a proposed private placement of common shares and amendments to the terms of its loan facility (refer to note 10(ii)). The net proceeds to be raised by the private placement are intended to be used to support mine operations and provide general working capital for the Company.

The private placement is expected to include funds raised in both UK and Canadian currency and is for a maximum of 2,636,355 shares, at an issue price of $0.225 (UK£0.1328) per share for maximum gross proceeds of $593,180 (UK£350,000). Provisional indications have been received for $457,469 (UK£270,000). A four month plus one day hold period will apply to the shares and the shares will rank pari passu with the existing shares in issue of the Company. The private placement will be brokered and insiders of the Company are expected to participate in the private placement.

(iii) (continued) Galantas also agreed on terms, subject to final documentation, of an increase in the outstanding loan facility (refer to note 10(ii)). The amount of the loan facility will increase by US$200,000 to a total of US$1.8 million. The interest rate applicable on the loan facility will be increased from US$ 12 month LIBOR + 8.75% to US$ 12 month LIBOR + 9.9% and the maturity date will be extended from December 30, 2020 to December 31, 2021. Interest may be rolled into the loan facility until December 31, 2020, at the Company's option. The existing second charge debenture over mine assets will remain in place. Galantas entered into the loan facility through a concentrate pre-payment agreement/loan agreement signed by its subsidiary Flintridge and the Lender on April 11, 2018.

As consideration for amending the terms of the loan facility, the Lender will receive, upon closing of the loan facility agreements, 1,700,000 bonus warrants of Galantas ("Bonus Warrants") subject to the rules of TSXV. Each Bonus Warrant will be exercisable for one common share of Galantas (a "Bonus Share") at an exercise price of $0.33 per Bonus Share, being 110% of the TSXV closing price the day before this announcement. The Bonus Warrants will expire on December 31, 2021 (the "Expiry Time") and the Bonus Shares will be subject to an initial four month plus one day hold period from the date of their issuance. In the event that the weighted average closing price per common share of the Company is more than $0.4125 per share for more than five consecutive trading days, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the Expiry Time to a date that is 30 days from the date on which the Company announces the accelerated Expiry Time by press release. The Bonus Warrants are subject to TSXV and regulatory approval.

Following the completion of the private placement and the loan facility, G&F Phelps will enter into an arrangement in respect of its loans with the Company (the "G&F Phelps Loans") which will provide that G&F Phelps will not call for repayment of the G&F Phelps Loans (which are repayable on demand), until June 30, 2021 at the earliest, unless certain events occur including inter alia a sale or insolvency of the Company, a material liquidity event, change of control or breach of the terms of the G&F Phelps Loans.

(v) The Company's operations could be significantly adversely affected by the effects of a widespread global outbreak of a contagious disease, including the recent outbreak of respiratory illness caused by COVID-19. The Company cannot accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have on its operations and the ability of others to meet their obligations with the Company, including uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of travel and quarantine restrictions imposed by governments of affected countries. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could further affect the Company's operations and ability to finance its operations.
