Derrick Pattenden, President, CEO and Director of Nations Royalty, commented: “Fiscal 2026 was a year of meaningful progress for Nations Royalty. We delivered record royalty revenue from our producing Brucejack royalty, supported by higher gold prices, while also seeing important advancements across several of our development-stage assets. We are particularly encouraged by the commencement of access road activities at Red Mountain and by the continued momentum at Seabridge Gold’s KSM Project. Both assets have the potential to become significant long-term contributors to the value of our royalty portfolio. As Canada’s first majority Indigenous-owned public royalty company, we remain focused on growing revenue, expanding our portfolio of Indigenous royalties and creating long-term value for our shareholders and Indigenous partners.”
