In order to address this issue and improve geological and mine plan confidence, Centerra commenced an infill and grade control drilling program in the second quarter of 2025. As a result of the lower gold grades, Centerra updated 2025 guidance for gold production to 145,000 to 165,000 ounces, from 165,000 to 185,000 ounces previously, and reaffirmed its copper production guidance range of 50 to 60 million pounds.

Article content Portfolio Additions Article content Acquisition of Gold Stream on the Kansanshi Mine in Zambia Article content As announced on August 5, 2025, our wholly-owned subsidiary RGLD Gold AG ('RG AG'), entered into a precious metals purchase agreement ('Stream Agreement') for gold deliveries referenced to copper production from the Kansanshi copper-gold mine ('Kansanshi') in the North Western Province of Zambia, operated and 80% owned by a subsidiary of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. ('First Quantum'). Article content RG AG made an advance payment of $1.0 billion ('Advance') in return for a gold stream referenced to copper production, with deliveries of 75 ounces of gold per million pounds of recovered copper produced until the delivery of 425,000 ounces; 55 ounces of gold per million pounds of recovered copper produced between the delivery of 425,001 ounces and 650,000 ounces; and 45 ounces of gold per million pounds of recovered copper produced thereafter. Additionally, and depending on the achievement of certain objectives as described below, RG AG has granted options to First Quantum to accelerate stream deliveries and reduce the outstanding Advance: Article content Acceleration Option 1: From the earlier of the achievement by First Quantum of a minimum 'BB' or equivalent senior unsecured debt rating from a rating agency, or a Net Debt/TTM EBITDA ratio of 2.25x or less over three consecutive quarters starting from March 31, 2026, it will have a one-year period to exercise the option and deliver gold worth up to $200 million over a 14-month period from the date of option exercise and reduce the stream rates and delivery thresholds by up to 20%. Acceleration Option 2: If First Quantum achieves either a minimum 'BBB-' or equivalent senior unsecured debt rating from a rating agency, or shows a Net Debt/TTM EBITDA ratio of 1.25x or less over four consecutive quarters, and achieves certain operational conditions, it will have a one-year period to exercise the option and deliver gold worth up to $100 million over a 7-month period from the date of option exercise and reduce the stream rates and delivery thresholds by up to a further 10%. Article content RG AG will pay 20% of the spot gold price for each ounce delivered. Should one of the conditions in Acceleration Option 1 be met, Royal Gold will pay 35% of the spot gold price for each ounce delivered. Article content RG AG's interests under the stream agreement are guaranteed by all entities within the Kansanshi ownership chain, from the project company (Kansanshi Mining PLC) through to the parent, First Quantum Minerals Ltd. RG AG also has customary additional protections for a stream agreement including limitations on certain additional encumbrances, restrictions on transfer of mine ownership, sharing for insurance and expropriation proceeds, and typical remedies for events of default. Article content The Kansanshi mine is owned and operated by Kansanshi Mining PLC, which is 80% owned indirectly by First Quantum and 20% by ZCCM Investments Holdings PLC, a company majority-owned by the Government of the Republic of Zambia. First Quantum acquired its interest in the project in 2001, began construction soon after, and achieved commercial production in 2005. As of December 31, 2024, Proven and Probable Reserves consisted of 1.070 billion tonnes grading 0.52% copper and 0.10 grams per tonne gold, calculated using a copper price of $3.50 per pound and a gold price of $1,805 per ounce. As of the same date, Measured and Indicated Resources (inclusive of Reserves) were 1.297 billion tonnes grading 0.57% copper and 0.07 grams per tonne gold, calculated at a 0.2% copper cut-off grade. First Quantum expects a mine life of more than 20 years, and the All-In Sustaining Cost ('AISC') is expected to be in the lower half of the global copper cost curve during the next 10 years of mine life. Article content Royal Gold funded the Advance using available cash and a draw of $825 million on its revolving credit facility. Article content Acquisition of Stream and Royalty Interests on the Warintza Project in Ecuador Article content As previously announced on May 21, 2025, RG AG acquired a gold stream and separate royalty interest in the Warintza copper-gold-molybdenum project in southeastern Ecuador, operated by Solaris Resources Inc. ('Solaris'). The advance payment ('Advance') for the acquisition totals $200 million in cash consideration, including $100 million paid upon closing, $50 million payable after technical approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment ('EIA') and publication of a PFS, which are expected to be complete in the third quarter of 2025, and $50 million payable one year after closing, subject to security perfection in Ecuador. Solaris will direct the proceeds of the Advance towards advancing technical studies, permitting activities, early infrastructure development, the repayment of debt, some district exploration activities and general working capital requirements. After receipt of the full Advance, Solaris expects to be fully funded through to a final investment decision. Article content In return for the Advance, RG AG and Solaris entered into: Article content A Gold Stream Agreement that provides for the delivery to RG AG of 20 ounces of gold per million pounds of recovered copper in return for a cash payment for each ounce delivered of 20% of the spot gold price until the delivery of 90,000 ounces, and 60% of the spot gold price thereafter. The Gold Stream Agreement may be subject to early termination at the option of RG AG or Solaris if a change of control of Solaris or Warintza occurs, or by RG AG if deliveries have not begun by May 21, 2033. The area of interest for the Gold Stream Agreement covers approximately 31 square kilometers, and will expand to 186 square kilometers if the early termination provisions have not been exercised and the first delivery has not been received by May 21, 2033. A Royalty Agreement that provides for payment to RG AG of a net smelter return ('NSR') royalty at an initial rate of 0.30% for all metals produced from an area of interest of approximately 186 square kilometers. The royalty rate will increase by 0.0375% per year until the earlier to occur of the first delivery under the Gold Stream Agreement or May 21, 2033, to a maximum of 0.60%. If the Gold Stream Agreement is subject to early termination, the royalty rate will be the rate in place at the time of exercise if the early termination is exercised by RG AG, or 0.60% if the early termination is exercised by Solaris. Article content RG AG will also maintain certain rights to participate in any future stream, royalty or similar production-based financing on the Warintza land package. Article content The Warintza project consists of a cluster of five separate porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold intrusions that coalesce within two overlapping open pits. Exploration potential is high for near and in-mine targets, as well as within the larger project area. Solaris is targeting a Final Investment Decision by the end of 2026. Article content Acquisition of Royalty Interest on the Lawyers-Ranch Project in British Columbia Article content On May 16, 2025, Royal Gold acquired a 2.0% NSR royalty on the Ranch portion of the Lawyers-Ranch Project operated by Thesis Gold Inc. ('Thesis') from a private seller for cash consideration of $12.5 million. The royalty covers all metals, is perpetual with no buyback rights or caps, and constitutes a real property interest. Article content The Lawyers-Ranch Project is in the Toodoggone Epithermal/Porphyry Trend located in the Toodoggone mining district of Northern British Columbia, and Thesis is currently targeting completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study in the fourth quarter of 2025. This transaction increases Royal Gold's royalty exposure to this emerging trend, which also includes a 0.5% NSR royalty on the Lawyers portion of the Lawyers-Ranch Project and a 0.5% royalty on the Shasta Project, operated by TDG Gold Corp. Article content Corporate Acquisitions Article content On July 6, 2025, we entered into arrangement agreements to acquire each of Sandstorm Gold Ltd. ('Sandstorm') and Horizon Copper Corp. ('Horizon'). Under the terms of the agreement with Sandstorm, Royal Gold has agreed to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of Sandstorm in exchange for Royal Gold shares at an exchange ratio of 0.0625 common shares of Royal Gold for each common share of Sandstorm (the 'Sandstorm Transaction'), which reflected a transaction equity value of approximately $3.5 billion at the time of signing. Under the terms of the agreement with Horizon, Royal Gold has agreed to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of Horizon in exchange for cash of C$2.00/share (the 'Horizon Transaction' and together with the Sandstorm Transaction, the 'Transactions'), which reflected a transaction equity value of approximately $196 million at the time of signing. Article content The combined Sandstorm and Horizon portfolios will contribute 40 revenue-producing royalty and stream interests, with a further 28 in the development stage and 154 in the evaluation and exploration stages. After completing the Transactions, Royal Gold's pro-forma portfolio will comprise 393 streams and royalties, largely focused on the Americas, with 80 revenue-producing interests and 47 in development. Royal Gold will also be well capitalized, remain precious metals focused, generate significant free cash flow, and have a portfolio that is well-positioned for organic cash flow growth from a robust development pipeline. Article content The Sandstorm Transaction will be effected by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). At closing of the Sandstorm Transaction, Royal Gold expects to issue an aggregate of approximately 19 million common shares to Sandstorm shareholders, and following completion of the Sandstorm Transaction, existing Sandstorm shareholders will own approximately 23% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Royal Gold on a fully diluted basis. Article content The Sandstorm Transaction will be subject to the approval of 66 2/3% of the votes cast by shareholders of Sandstorm at a special meeting (the 'Sandstorm Meeting') and the approval of a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders of Sandstorm at the Sandstorm Meeting excluding votes cast by senior officers and directors, as required under Multilateral Instrument 61-101. In addition, Royal Gold will require approval by a simple majority of the votes cast by Royal Gold shareholders at a special meeting. The full details of the Sandstorm Transaction will be described in Sandstorm's management information circular and Royal Gold's proxy statement to be prepared in accordance with applicable securities laws. Article content The completion of the Sandstorm Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, as well as the approvals by Royal Gold and Sandstorm's shareholders described above, the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, completion of the Horizon Transaction (which can be waived by Royal Gold in its sole discretion), the listing of shares of Royal Gold's stock to be issued in the transaction on Nasdaq, and regulatory clearances or approvals. Article content The Horizon Transaction will be effected by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Horizon Transaction will be subject to the approval of 66 2/3% of the votes cast by shareholders of Horizon at a special meeting (the 'Horizon Meeting') ') and 66 2/3% of the votes cast by shareholders and warrant holders of Horizon, voting together as a single class at the Horizon Meeting. Sandstorm, as well as the senior officers and directors of Horizon and certain additional Horizon shareholders, which as of July 6, 2025, collectively controlled 54% of the total basic common shares of Horizon, have entered into voting support agreements pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Horizon Transaction, subject to certain conditions. Additionally, the Horizon Transaction will be subject to the approval of a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders of Horizon at the Horizon Meeting excluding votes cast by Sandstorm, senior officers, and directors as required under Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The full details of the Horizon Transaction will be described in Horizon's management information circular to be prepared in accordance with applicable securities laws. Article content The completion of the Horizon Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, as well as the approval by Horizon's securityholders described above, the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, completion of the Sandstorm Transaction (which can be waived by Royal Gold in its sole discretion), and regulatory clearances or approvals. Article content The Transactions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025. Article content Second Quarter 2025 Overview Article content For the second quarter, we recorded net income and comprehensive income attributable to Royal Gold stockholders ('net income') of $132.3 million, or $2.01 per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income of $81.2 million, or $1.23 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to higher revenue and lower tax expense, each discussed below. Article content For the second quarter, we recognized total revenue of $209.6 million, comprised of stream revenue of $133.2 million and royalty revenue of $76.5 million at an average gold price of $3,280 per ounce, an average silver price of $33.68 per ounce and an average copper price of $4.32 per pound. This is compared to total revenue of $174.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, comprised of stream revenue of $123.0 million and royalty revenue of $51.1 million, at an average gold price of $2,338 per ounce, an average silver price of $28.84 per ounce and an average copper price of $4.42 per pound. Article content The increase in our total revenue resulted primarily from higher average gold and silver prices compared to the prior period. Higher gold production from Peñasquito and Manh Choh also contributed to the increase. These increases were partially offset by lower gold sales from Xavantina when compared to the prior year period. Article content Cost of sales, which excludes depreciation, depletion and amortization ('DD&A'), was $24.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Cost of sales is specific to our stream agreements and, except for Mount Milligan, is the result of our purchase of metal for a cash payment that is a set contractual percentage of the spot price for that metal near the date of metal delivery. For Mount Milligan, the cash payments under the stream agreement are the lesser of $435 per ounce or the prevailing market price of gold when purchased and 15% of the spot price for copper near the date of metal delivery. Separately, and in addition to the cash payments under the stream agreement, the Mount Milligan Cost Support Agreement provides for cash payments on gold and copper deliveries that are expected to begin after certain thresholds are met or earlier, if metal prices are below certain thresholds and if requested by Centerra. For further detail on the Mount Milligan Cost Support Agreement refer to our 2024 10-K. Article content General and administrative costs decreased to $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease compared to the prior year period was primarily due to lower non-cash stock compensation expense. Article content DD&A decreased to $31.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $35.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower stream depletion rates as a result of proven and probable mineral reserve increases by our operators and lower gold sales from Xavantina compared to the prior year period. These decreases were partially offset by higher production at Voisey's Bay and Manh Choh when compared to the prior year period. Article content For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded income tax expense of $10.5 million, compared to $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The income tax expense resulted in an effective tax rate of 7.4% in the current period, compared with 18.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The lower income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, included a $9.3 million discrete benefit related to a withholding tax refund on a foreign royalty and a discrete tax benefit of $4.3 million attributable to the release of a valuation allowance. Article content Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $152.8 million for the second quarter, compared to $113.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher net cash proceeds received from our stream and royalty interests of $29.3 million, lower income tax payments of $6.1 million and lower debt cash interest payments of $2.0 million when compared to the prior year period. Article content Net cash used in investing activities totaled $112.8 million for the second quarter, compared to $50.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The period over period change was primarily due to the $100 million payment for the Warintza stream and royalty and the $12.5 million payment for the Lawyers-Ranch royalty in the current period offset by the $51 million acquisition of two Back River Gold District royalties in the prior year period. Article content Net cash used in financing activities totaled $32.6 million for the second quarter, compared to $126.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower debt repayments when compared to the prior year period. This decrease was partially offset by higher dividend payments compared to the prior year period. Article content Other Corporate Updates Article content On June 26, 2025, we entered into the sixth amendment to the revolving credit facility dated June 2, 2017, as amended. The principal changes included in the sixth amendment were the extension of the scheduled maturity date by a further two years from June 28, 2028 to June 30, 2030, and an increase to the size of the accordion feature from $250 million to $400 million. As disclosed on August 5, 2025, we exercised the $400 million accordion feature and the aggregate commitment under the revolving credit facility has increased to $1.4 billion. Article content Additionally, the required leverage ratio was revised to be less than or equal to 4.00:1.00 at all times, rather than 4.00:1.00 for only the two fiscal quarters following the consummation of a material permitted acquisition (as defined) and 3.50:1.00 at all other times. Article content Total Available Liquidity of Approximately $1.25 Billion at the end of the Second Quarter Article content Total liquidity at the end of the second quarter was approximately $1.25 billion, which consisted of $266 million of working capital and $1 billion undrawn and available under the revolving credit facility. Following the draw as part of the Kansanshi gold stream acquisition, $575 million remains available under the revolving credit facility.

Most of these factors are beyond our ability to predict or control. Other unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this release could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.

These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures varies among companies, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Article content We have provided below reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors for analysis of our business. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to compare period-over-period performance on a consistent basis and when planning and forecasting for future periods. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in our industry. Many investors use the published research reports of these professional research analysts and others in making investment decisions. The adjustments made to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures are subjective and involve significant management judgement. Non-GAAP financial measures used by management in this release or elsewhere include the following: Article content Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by the Company as net income adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as set forth in the reconciliation below. The net income and adjusted EBITDA margins represent net income or adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. We consider adjusted EBITDA to be useful because the measure reflects our operating performance before the effects of certain non-cash items and other items that we believe are not indicative of our core operations. Net debt (or net cash) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by the Company as debt (excluding debt issuance costs) as of a date minus cash and equivalents for that same date. Net debt (or net cash) to trailing twelve months (TTM) adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by the Company as net debt (or net cash) as of a date divided by the TTM adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) ending on that date. We believe that these measures are important to monitor leverage and evaluate the balance sheet. Cash and equivalents are subtracted from the GAAP measure because they could be used to reduce our debt obligations. A limitation associated with using net debt (or net cash) is that it subtracts cash and equivalents and therefore may imply that there is less Company debt than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates. We believe that investors may find these measures useful to monitor leverage and evaluate the balance sheet. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated by the Company as net income and net income per share adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period, as set forth in the reconciliations below. We consider these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful because they allow for period-to-period comparisons of our operating results excluding items that we believe are not indicative of our fundamental ongoing operations. The tax effect of adjustments is computed by applying the statutory tax rate in the applicable jurisdictions to the income or expense items that are adjusted in the period presented. If a valuation allowance exists, the rate applied is zero. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by the Company as net cash provided by operating activities for a period minus acquisition of stream and royalty interests for that same period. We believe that free cash flow represents an additional way of viewing liquidity as it is adjusted for contractual investments made during such period. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. We believe it is important to view free cash flow as a complement to our consolidated statements of cash flows. Cash general and administrative expense, or cash G&A, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by the Company as general and administrative expenses for a period minus non-cash employee stock compensation expense for the same period. We believe that cash G&A is useful as an indicator of overhead efficiency without regard to non-cash expenses associated with employee stock compensation.
