## Overview

Gold Royalty Corp. is a U.S.-based precious metals royalty company that acquires and holds net smelter return royalties and other royalty and streaming interests on gold-focused mining assets. Its portfolio is concentrated in the Americas and is structured to receive value from third-party-operated mines and development projects rather than from operating mines directly.

## Products & services

• Net smelter return royalties on gold properties
• Precious metals royalty and streaming interests
• Royalty financing for mining companies
• Portfolio acquisition and development-stage royalty interests

- **Net smelter return royalties** (70%) — Royalty interests that entitle the company to a percentage of mine revenues from production on underlying properties.
- **Streaming interests** (10%) — Metal purchase rights tied to future production from mining assets, typically at pre-agreed pricing terms.
- **Joint venture royalty interests** (10%) — Royalty-linked interests held through joint ventures or partnership structures such as Borborema LP.
- **Development and acquisition royalties** (10%) — Royalties on projects in development or recently acquired interests that may contribute in future periods.

- Net smelter return royalties on gold properties
- Precious metals royalty and streaming interests
- Royalty financing for mining companies
- Portfolio acquisition and development-stage royalty interests

## Customers

Gold Royalty's direct counterparties are mining companies, project developers, and operators that sell royalty or streaming interests to raise capital without issuing operating debt or equity. Its end cash flow depends on production from gold mines and development projects in the Americas, so the customer base is best understood as the mining operators underlying each royalty asset.

- **Mining operators** (primary) — Operators of gold mines and related projects that grant royalties or streams in exchange for financing or asset monetization.
- **Project developers** (primary) — Developers of exploration and construction-stage assets that use royalty financing to fund mine advancement.
- **Joint venture partners** (secondary) — Partners in royalty-bearing structures such as Borborema LP that support revenue participation through partnership interests.
- **Restart candidates** (secondary) — Operators of suspended or restartable mines that may create future royalty receipts if assets return to production.

- Mining operators that monetize projects through royalty financing
- Project developers seeking non-dilutive capital
- Mines in production that pay NSR royalties on output
- Operators of development assets that may restart or expand
- Joint venture partners tied to royalty-bearing properties

## Geography

Gold Royalty's royalty portfolio is concentrated in the Americas, which is the company's primary geographic revenue exposure and operating footprint. The business is not tied to a single mine country; instead, its cash flow depends on a diversified set of gold properties across North and South America, with project-specific risk determined by each underlying operator.

- **Americas** (100%) — Company states its portfolio consists primarily of NSR royalties on gold properties located in the Americas.

- Portfolio concentrated in the Americas
- Underlying royalties tied to gold properties across multiple countries
- Revenue depends on mine-specific operator performance
- Geographic diversification reduces single-asset concentration
- Project locations shape restart, permitting, and political exposure

## Strategy

The company focuses on building a diversified portfolio of precious metals royalties and streams, with an emphasis on high-quality, sustainable mining operations. Its strategy is to add assets through acquisitions and financing structures that provide exposure to mine production without operating risk, while retaining optionality from development-stage and restart assets.

- **Portfolio diversification** (medium-term) — Diversification across multiple royalties reduces dependence on any single mine or operator.
- **Acquire accretive royalties and streams** (short-term) — New royalty interests are the main way to expand future cash flow without operating mines directly.
- **Support cash-flowing and restart assets** (medium-term) — Producing and restartable assets can improve portfolio visibility and near-term revenue potential.

- Expand a diversified portfolio of royalty and streaming interests
- Prioritize gold-focused assets in the Americas
- Use acquisition activity to add cash-flowing and growth assets
- Maintain exposure to development and restart opportunities
- Target responsible mining operators and long-life assets

## Risks

Gold Royalty's results depend on third-party operators, so production delays, mine restarts, and project underperformance can directly reduce royalty receipts. The company also faces commodity-price sensitivity, jurisdictional risk across the Americas, and dependence on disclosures from operators it cannot fully verify.

- **Third-party operator dependence** [high] — Royalty revenue is only generated when underlying mines produce and report payable metal sales.
- **Project restart and development delays** [high] — Assets such as Jerritt Canyon depend on operators successfully restarting or advancing projects.
- **Gold price sensitivity** [high] — Royalty value and GEO conversion move with realized gold prices and underlying mine economics.
- **Information and verification limitations** [medium] — The company states it has limited access to underlying properties and depends on operator disclosures.

- Royalty cash flow depends on third-party mine production
- Operator restart and development timing can shift receipts
- Gold price swings affect royalty economics and GEOs
- Americas jurisdictions bring permitting and political risk
- Company relies on operator disclosures and limited site access

## Accounting

Revenue recognition for royalty and streaming interests can involve judgments about production timing, payable metal volumes, and the treatment of partnership interests such as Borborema LP. The company also highlights non-IFRS measures like Total Revenue, Land Agreement Proceeds and Interest and GEOs, which affect comparability but are not substitutes for IFRS revenue.

- **Royalty revenue recognition** — Can create quarter-to-quarter volatility and timing differences versus production data
- **Joint venture accounting** — Affects reported revenue and net income relative to a direct royalty structure
- **Non-IFRS measures** — Can change how investors assess underlying royalty performance
- **GEO calculation** — Useful for comparability, but sensitive to commodity price assumptions

- Royalty revenue depends on operator production and payable sales timing
- Borborema LP affects proportionate revenue and joint venture accounting
- Non-IFRS adjustments include land proceeds and interest items
- GEOs convert revenue into gold-equivalent ounces for comparison
- Lease obligations are small but still require IFRS 16 disclosure
