Management Commentary

 

Jason Attew, President & CEO of OR Royalties commented: “OR Royalties’ is on track to achieve its 2025 annual guidance of 80,000-88,000 GEOs, as we expect a slightly stronger second half in terms of GEOs earned. Looking a bit closer at some of our major GEO contributors over the past six months, we have seen continued outperformance at Canadian Malartic largely offsetting silver grade-related underperformance at Mantos Blancos.

 

Elsewhere, we were pleased to have received our first royalty payments during the second quarter from both Cardinal Namdini Mining’s Namdini gold mine in Ghana, as well as Talisker Resources’ Bralorne gold mine in British Columbia, bringing the total number of producing assets in our portfolio to 22. We wish both operators the best going forward as they ramp up their respective operations over the balance of the year.

 

As stated previously in our June 2, 2025, press release, through the first seven months of the year, there have been a number of positive advancements on several portfolio assets that sit outside of our current 5-year outlook. In addition to all of that progress, we are also expecting the following key portfolio catalysts before year-end: Capstone Copper’s Phase II Expansion Feasibility Study for Mantos Blancos; Alamos Gold’s Island Gold District Expansion Study; Gold Fields’ updated Feasibility Study for Windfall, along with the project’s final permits; Ramelius Resources’ Integrated Feasibility Study for Dalgaranga, as well as potential for first gold production from the mine later this year; Orla Mining’s Updated Feasibility Study for South Railroad; updates from Osisko Development as it commences mine construction activities at Cariboo; and, finally, the closing of Harmony Gold’s acquisition of MAC Copper, resulting in CSA being subsequently optimized by one of the best deep underground mining operators in the world.

 

Finally, I would like to acknowledge the present strength of the Company’s balance sheet, not only due to our recently increased revolving credit facility, but also given the fact that as of June 30, 2025, OR Royalties was in a net-cash position for the first time in several years. This enhanced liquidity provides the Company with the financial capacity to pursue accretive growth opportunities.”
