OR Royalties Inc. (TSX:OR) (NYSE:OR) announced its consolidated financial results for the second quarter of 2026. Quarterly revenues grew 62% year-over-year on a 5% increase in gold equivalent ounces earned, due in part to contributions from recently acquired assets. With 96.8% of revenues converting to cash margin, this growth in revenues and cash flows reflects the peer-leading leverage of the Company’s royalty and streaming model to higher precious metals prices. Amounts presented are in United States dollars unless otherwise noted.
Financial Highlights
Portfolio Growth
During the quarter, OR Royalties closed $335.0 million of previously announced acquisitions: Terraco Gold Corp., holder of net smelter return royalties covering Solidus Resources LLC’s Spring Valley Gold Project in Nevada ($168.0 million); a portfolio of eight royalties acquired from Gold Fields Limited anchored by a 1.5% NSR on Compañia de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A.’s producing San Gabriel gold-silver mine in Peru ($115.0 million); and finally, as part of the same transaction with Gold Fields, deferred payment obligations from Galiano Gold Inc. ($52.0 million for $60.0 million of scheduled payments). Royalty, stream and other interests grew to $1.48 billion as at June 30, 2026 from $1.14 billion at year-end 2025.
Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company closed the $28.0 million Murray Brook precious metals stream (with a C$5.5 million equity subscription) with Canadian Copper Inc., and entered into a binding agreement with Hot Chili Limited (“Hot Chili”) pursuant to which Hot Chili agreed to extend the Company’s NSR royalties to cover the La Verde project at Costa Fuego in consideration for cash payment of $15.0 million.

Management Commentary
Jason Attew, President & CEO of OR Royalties commented: “Revenues and operating cash flows each grew 62% year-over-year — the arithmetic of a 96.8% cash margin business in a stronger precious metals market — and we remain on track for our 2026 guidance of 80,000 to 90,000 GEOs. We also closed $335.0 million of acquisitions in the quarter, including NSR royalties on San Gabriel, already producing and paying, and Spring Valley, amongst others.
When our shares sold off following Agnico Eagle’s July 2 disclosure on the Barnat pit, we bought back over one million shares in early July, more than four times the number of shares repurchased in the entire second quarter, and at meaningfully lower prices. Along these lines, our conviction in Canadian Malartic remains unchanged. And this is what shareholders should expect from us: cash generation strong enough to fund a growing dividend, execute on buybacks when the market misprices our shares, and invest in a still-robust pipeline of new opportunities, all at once.”
