Franco-Nevada Reports Record Q3 2025 Results

Balance Sheet is Debt-Free (in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted) , /PRNewswire/ - Franco-Nevada's record quarterly results benefited from a combination of higher gold prices, strong operations, new acquisitions and the sale of Cobre Panama copper concentrate stockpiles. Our acquisition of six meaningful new gold interests over the last 18 months has positioned us for strong growth over the long-term and boosted our gold price exposure, with 85% of our revenue being from precious metals in the quarter. Following these results, we have narrowed our 2025 Total GEO sales guidance range, toward the higher end of our original guidance. After drawing on our corporate revolver to fund the Arthur Gold royalty acquisition in July, the Company is once again debt-free. We are encouraged by the recent constructive comments by the President of Panama toward resolution of the Cobre Panama mine closure. "Looking forward, our deep portfolio of producing, development and exploration stage royalties on primary gold assets is well positioned to grow organically in this strong gold price environment," stated Paul Brink, CEO.

We benefited from record gold prices during the quarter, deliveries from Cobre Panama in connection with the sale of concentrate that had remained on site when production was suspended in November 2023, and contributions from Precious Metal assets which were acquired or commenced production over the past year. Revenue from our Diversified assets was higher than in Q3 2024, reflecting higher natural gas prices than in the prior year quarter. The outperformance of the gold price relative to our other commodities resulted in a reduction in GEOs reported from our Diversified assets. Precious Metal assets accounted for 85% of our revenue (72% gold, 11% silver, and 2% PGM). Revenue was sourced 88% from the Americas (40% South America, 18% Central America & Mexico, 18% Canada and 12% U.S.). Guidance Our 2025 guidance is based on assumptions including the forecasted state of operations from our assets based on the public statements and other disclosures by the third-party owners and operators of the underlying properties and our assessment thereof. We earned record revenue during the first nine months of 2025, driven by record gold prices and a robust performance across our portfolio. We further benefited from additional deliveries from Cobre Panama and initial contributions from our recently acquired Côté Gold royalty, both of which were not included in our original guidance. We now expect to exceed our initial Precious Metal GEO sales guidance. For Total GEO sales, we have narrowed our guidance range, toward the higher end of our original guidance. Total GEOs, which include GEOs from our non-gold assets, are impacted by the relative performance of commodity prices relative to gold. Our 2025 updated guidance is based on the following assumed commodity prices for the remainder of 2025: $3,800/oz Au, $47.50/oz Ag, $1,450/oz Pt, $1,350/oz Pd, $100/tonne Fe 62% CFR China, $60/bbl WTI oil and $3.00/mcf Henry Hub natural gas. 2025 Revised Guidance 2025 Initial Guidance YTD 2025 Actual Precious Metal GEO sales 420,000 - 440,000 385,000 - 425,000 312,181 Total GEO sales 495,000 - 525,000 465,000 - 525,000 377,450 Canada Revenue Agency Audit On September 11, 2025, we reached a settlement with the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA Settlement") which provided for a final resolution of our tax dispute in connection with the reassessments under transfer pricing rules of the 2013 to 2019 taxation years in relation to our Mexican and Barbadian subsidiaries. Under the terms of the CRA Settlement, no payment of any tax in Canada is required on the foreign earnings of the Company's Barbadian and Mexican subsidiaries for the 2013 to 2019 taxation years. Franco-Nevada has posted security in the form of cash totaling $44.1 million (C$61.4 million) and standby letters of credit totaling $47.4 million (C$66.0 million), which we expect will be released in the short-term. Cobre Panama Updates Cobre Panama remains in a phase of Preservation and Safe Management ("P&SM") with production halted. Following the approval of the P&SM plan in May 2025 by the Government of Panama, through the Ministry of Commerce and Industries ("MICI"), the shipment of the 122,520 dry metric tonnes of copper concentrate that had remained at site was completed. First Quantum has commenced pre-commissioning of the thermoelectric power plant ("power plant") and the mobilization of specialists to site. The power plant is currently anticipated to restart in Q4 2025, with the first 150MW unit expected to be fired and synchronized with the national grid in November 2025. On October 10, 2025, the Ministry of Environment ("MiAmbiente") issued the order for SGS Panama Control Services Inc. ("SGS") to proceed with the integral audit of the Cobre Panama project. MiAmbiente and MICI, together with SGS, are coordinating the audit planning and implementation, which is expected to cover environmental, social, legal and fiscal compliance aspects. During Q3 2025, Franco-Nevada received 11,208 GEOs in stream deliveries in reference to the shipped copper concentrate that had remained at site, and expects approximately 1,000 GEOs in Q4 2025 or early Q1 2026. Management Update Jason O'Connell, Senior Vice President, Diversified, has left the Company to pursue other opportunities. "Jason's dedication and hard work have been a key contributor to the growth of the Company and we wish him well with his new endeavour," commented Paul Brink, President & CEO. Sustainability Updates We continue to be top rated by Sustainalytics, AA by MSCI and Prime by ISS ESG. During the quarter, we expanded the Franco-Nevada Diversity Scholarship program by awarding four new diversity scholarships to mining engineering students at the University of Toronto, McGill University, and Queen's University. Franco-Nevada is now providing scholarships to 15 students. Our community initiatives included supporting an initiative led by Fundación Hogar De La Divina Gracia to renovate a girls' home in Arraiján, Panama, helping improve living conditions for vulnerable young women. We also renewed our funding support for the Enseña Perú education initiative in Peru. Portfolio Additions Acquisition of Royalty on Arthur Gold Project: On July 23, 2025, we acquired a 1.0% NSR (of an existing 1.5% NSR) on AngloGold Ashanti plc's Arthur Gold Project (previously the Expanded Silicon Project) from Altius Minerals Corporation for $250.0 million in cash, plus a contingent cash payment of $25.0 million. The contingent cash consideration is payable dependent upon the final award outcome of an arbitration process between Altius and AngloGold related to the coverage of the royalty. The final award decision confirming the extent of the royalty area was received by Altius on August 14, 2025. As such, we expect to make the cash payment of $25.0 million in Q4 2025, following the expiry of any relevant appeal or challenge periods. Funding of the transaction was completed with cash on hand, and a $175.0 million draw from our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility which was repaid prior to quarter-end. Acquisition of Additional Royalty on Gold Quarry Gold Mine: On July 11, 2025, we acquired from a third party an additional NSR on Nevada Gold Mines's Gold Quarry mine for $10.5 million plus a $1.0 million contingent payment. As a result, Franco-Nevada now holds a combined NSR which provides an annual minimum payment of at least 1,650 gold ounces tied to mineral reserves and stockpiles attributed to the royalty property. Franco-Nevada expects to receive this annual minimum payment through to the end of the mine life with the potential to increase to a higher level if mineral reserves increase beyond current levels. Equity Investments and Loans Receivable Equity Investments: During the quarter, we disposed of equity investments for gross proceeds of $84.4 million and recognized a gain on fair value of $67.4 million. The proceeds were used to repay our corporate revolver and for general corporate purposes. As our equity investments are accounted for at fair value through other comprehensive income, this fair value gain is presented within shareholders' equity. This gain is not included in, and is incremental to, net income. The Company has a further $503.5 million of unrealized gains at September 30, 2025. Loans receivables: During the quarter, we recognized interest revenue of $4.1 million related to our loans receivable from G Mining Ventures and EMX Royalties. In September 2025, EMX and Elemental Altus Royalties Corp. announced a proposed arrangement whereby Elemental Altus would acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of EMX. Our term loan with EMX would become fully due and payable upon such change of control. In September 2025, after arranging a $250 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of commercial banks, Discovery Silver terminated our $100 million term loan facility, which remained undrawn as of the date of termination. Q3 2025 Portfolio Updates Precious Metal assets: GEOs sold from our Precious Metal assets were 119,109 GEOs, an increase of 41% from 84,377 GEOs in Q3 2024. This was primarily due to deliveries from Cobre Panama as a result of the sale of copper concentrate that had been stored at site, robust production at Guadalupe-Palmarejo and Tocantinzinho, and contributions from our recently acquired interests in Côté Gold, Western Limb, and Porcupine. South America: Candelaria (gold and silver stream) – GEOs sold in Q3 2025 were higher than those sold in Q3 2024 primarily due to the timing of deliveries. Production in the quarter also benefited from increased throughput due to higher overall production. Production is expected to continue at similar levels through Q4 2025. Antapaccay (gold and silver stream) – GEOs sold in Q3 2025 were consistent with Q3 2024. We expect a stronger Q4 2025, having recovered from the delays in shipments experienced in Q2 2025. Glencore anticipates Q4 2025 production at Antapaccay to continue to benefit from higher grades. Antamina (22.5% silver stream) – Silver ounces sold in Q3 2025 were higher than in Q3 2024. During the quarter, operations returned to normal levels following a fatality in Q2 2025. We expect stronger deliveries in Q4 2025. Tocantinzinho (gold stream) – GEOs sold in Q3 2025 were higher than Q3 2024, with the mine achieving its highest quarterly gold production since reaching commercial production. In October 2025, G Mining Ventures announced that federal authorities had approved the Tocantinzinho mine for its tax incentive program, thereby reducing the mine's corporate income tax rate for a period of 10 years. Yanacocha (1.8% royalty) – Newmont reported strong production at the mine in Q3 2025 from the use of patented injection leaching technology. The asset continues to significantly outperform compared to our initial expectations at the time of acquisition, with production for 2025 tracking more than 100,000 gold ounces above our initial expectations. Primary mining activities from the active oxide pit are expected to conclude in Q4 2025 as planned, with oxide production continuing thereafter from leaching. Salares Norte (1% royalties) – In August 2025, Gold Fields reported that Salares Norte is progressing well with its ramp-up and expects the mine to reach steady-state levels of production in Q4 2025. Cascabel (gold stream and 1% royalty) – In October 2025, SolGold reported positive assay results for the Tandayama America ("TAM") deposit, which is covered by Franco-Nevada's stream and royalty. In July 2025, SolGold released a project execution plan for its Cascabel project, with initial feed for the mill coming from the open pit TAM deposit providing a faster pathway to production. On July 17, 2025, Franco-Nevada disbursed the second of three equal-sized payments of $23.3 million to fund pre-construction activities at Cascabel. Gurupi (1% royalty) – G Mining Ventures has relaunched regional exploration at Gurupi and trenching in prospective areas had yielded positive results. G Mining is engaging with various stakeholders, and has restarted permitting processes. Volcan (1.5-3% royalties) – Tiernan Gold, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hochschild Mining, and Railtown Capital announced an arrangement that will result in a reverse takeover of Railtown by Tiernan with the resulting issuer expected to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange. In connection with this transaction, Tiernan and Railtown also announced a proposed brokered best-efforts private placement of up to C$65.0 million, in which Franco-Nevada intends to participate for C$5.0 million. Franco-Nevada also has the option to acquire a further 1% royalty over all concessions at the time of a board-approved construction decision. Central America & Mexico: Guadalupe-Palmarejo (50% gold stream) – GEOs sold from Guadalupe-Palmarejo in Q3 2025 were substantially higher than in Q3 2024, both from higher overall production and higher portion of ore coming from stream ground. Cobre Panama (gold and silver stream) – During the quarter, we received and sold 11,208 GEOs from Cobre Panama in connection with the sale of concentrate that had remained on site when production was suspended in November 2023 and expect an additional 1,000 GEOs in Q4 2025 or early Q1 2026. Canada: Detour Lake (2% royalty) – Agnico Eagle commenced excavation of the exploration ramp for the underground project with the first blast completed in July 2025. Exploration drilling in the West Pit zone further defined the high-grade domains that could potentially be mined early in the underground project. Drilling into the West Extension zone at underground depths further confirmed the grades and continuity of mineralization in the western plunge of the deposit. Côté Gold (7.5% GMR) – We earned 5,343 GEOs from our recently acquired Côté Gold royalty. In June 2025, IAMGOLD announced that the Côté Gold mine achieved nameplate throughput after operating at 36,000 tonnes per day on average over 30 consecutive days. Costs at the mine and mill are expected to decrease from current levels following the completion of ramp-up and stabilization activities and the installation of an additional secondary crusher in Q4 2025. Porcupine (4.25% royalty) – Since acquiring the Porcupine complex in April 2025, Discovery Silver has started capital programs to improve existing operations and pursue growth opportunities. Greenstone (3% royalty) – Equinox Gold reported that mining rates and mill grades improved in Q3 2025 and that it expected full-year production to meet the lower of its revised 2025 guidance of 220,000-260,000 gold ounces. Magino and Island Gold (0.62-3% royalty) – Alamos Gold reported that the Phase 3+ Expansion at Island Gold continues to progress well with the shaft sinking at 98% of its ultimate planned depth. The Phase 3+ mill expansion and paste plant are also advancing with the overall expansion expected to be completed in H2 2026. Alamos reported that production from Magino and Island Gold in Q4 2025 is expected to be lower than initially expected due to unplanned downtime at the Magino mill and the occurrence of a seismic event at Island Gold subsequent to the quarter. Valentine Gold (3% royalty) – Equinox Gold reported that its Valentine Gold mine poured first gold on September 14, 2025. As Valentine Gold continues to ramp-up, the operation is anticipated to produce between 15,000 to 30,000 ounces of gold in Q4 2025 and to deliver consistent nameplate capacity of 2.5 million tonnes per year by Q2 2026. Once operating at design capacity, Valentine is expected to produce between 175,000 and 200,000 ounces of gold annually for the first 12 years of its 14-year reserve life. Musselwhite (2% royalty and 5% NPI) – Since acquiring the mine from Newmont in March 2025, Orla Mining launched an aggressive exploration program aimed at testing mine trend extensions, replacing and expanding underground resources, and identifying satellite deposits. In October 2025, Orla Mining announced successful drill results from a program aimed at confirming a potential two-kilometre extension beyond existing resources. Canadian Malartic (1.5% royalty) – Development of East Gouldie production levels and support infrastructure progressed on schedule for planned production in H2 2026. Drilling continued to extend the East Gouldie deposit to the east and west in the lower portions of the deposit. Positive exploration drilling in the upper eastern extension of East Gouldie could potentially support a second mining area and utilize excess mill capacity. U.S.: Stibnite (1.7% gold royalty, 100% silver royalty) – In September 2025, Perpetua Resources received its conditional notice to proceed from the U.S. Forest Service for the Stibnite gold project. Perpetua also received an indicative term sheet from the Export-Import Bank of the United States on a potential $2 billion debt financing and raised $474 million in equity to advance the project. In October 2025, Perpetua broke ground on early works construction. Copper World (2.085% royalty) – After receiving all major permits required for the development and operations of Copper World in January 2025, Hudbay has been working on a definitive feasibility study which could lead to a potential construction decision in 2026. In August 2025, Hudbay Minerals announced that Mitsubishi Corporation had agreed to acquire a 30% interest in Copper World for an initial cash contribution of $600 million. Rest of World: Western Limb (gold and platinum stream) – Our stream on Sibanye-Stillwater's Western Limb mining operations delivered 4,838 GEOs in Q3 2025. 82% of the GEOs derived from gold deliveries and 18% from platinum deliveries. Platinum prices have outpaced gold price increases since acquisition of the stream. Subika (Ahafo) (2% royalty) – GEOs from our Subika (Ahafo) royalty were lower than in Q3 2024 due to end of mining operations at the Subika open pit at Ahafo South in July as planned. We expect production from royalty ground to continue from the Subika Underground. Ağı Dağı (2% royalty) – In October 2025, Alamos Gold completed the sale of its Turkish development projects, Kirazlı, Ağı Dağı and Çamyurt, to Tümad Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş, a mining company operating in the Republic of Türkiye for total consideration of $470 million. Franco-Nevada owns a 2% royalty on the Ağı Dağı project. Diversified assets: Our Diversified assets, primarily comprising our Iron Ore and Energy interests, generated $67.1 million in revenue, compared to $61.2 million in Q3 2024. When converted to GEOs, our Diversified assets contributed 19,663 GEOs, a decrease of 24% from 25,733 GEOs in Q3 2024. Other Mining: Vale Royalty (iron ore royalty) – Revenue from our Vale royalty increased compared to Q3 2024 due to initial contributions from the Southeastern System, where the cumulative sales threshold of 1.7 billion tonnes of iron ore was reached in Q2 2025. LIORC – Revenue from our attributable interest on the Carol Lake mine in Q3 2025 was lower than in Q3 2024. Production for the remainder of 2025 is expected to be constrained as IOC focuses on pit health, with lower ore feed to the concentrator. Energy: U.S. (various royalty rates) – Revenue from our U.S. Energy interests increased compared to Q3 2024. The increase was largely driven by higher production from our SCOOP/STACK interests acquired with Continental and higher realized natural gas prices when compared to Q3 2024. Canada (various royalty rates) – Revenue from our Canadian Energy interests was lower than in Q3 2024 primarily due to lower oil prices.

The forward-looking statements contained herein are based upon assumptions management believes to be reasonable, including, without limitation: the ongoing operation of the properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest by the owners or operators of such properties in a manner consistent with past practice; the accuracy of public statements and disclosures made by the owners or operators of such underlying properties; no material adverse change in the market price of the commodities that underlie the asset portfolio; the Company's ongoing income and assets relating to determination of its PFIC status; no material changes to existing tax treatment; the expected application of tax laws and regulations by taxation authorities; the expected assessment and outcome of any audit by any taxation authority; no adverse development in respect of any significant property in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest; the accuracy of publicly disclosed expectations for the development of underlying properties that are not yet in production; integration of acquired assets; and the absence of any other factors that could cause actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated, estimated or intended. However, there can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. In addition, there can be no assurance as to (i) the outcome of any ongoing or future audits by the CRA or the Company's exposure as a result thereof, or (ii) the future status and any potential restart of the Cobre Panama mine or the outcome of any related arbitration proceedings. Franco-Nevada cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein .

ENDNOTES: 1. Gold Equivalent Ounces ("GEOs") and Net Gold Equivalent Ounces ("Net GEOs"): GEOs include Franco-Nevada's attributable share of production from our Mining and Energy assets after applicable recovery and payability factors. GEOs are estimated on a gross basis for NSRs and, in the case of stream ounces, before the payment of the per ounce contractual price paid by the Company. For NPI royalties, GEOs are calculated taking into account the NPI economics. Where the Company receives gold and silver bullion in-kind as payment for its royalties, GEOs are recognized at the time of receipt of such bullion. Silver, platinum, palladium, iron ore, oil, gas and other commodities are converted to GEOs by dividing associated revenue, which includes settlement adjustments, by the relevant gold price. The price used in the computation of GEOs varies depending on the royalty or stream agreement of each particular asset, which may make reference to the market price realized by the operator, or the average price for the month, quarter, or year in which the commodity was produced or sold. For Q3 2025, the average commodity prices were as follows: $3,456/oz gold (Q3 2024 - $2,477), $39.38/oz silver (Q3 2024 - $29.42), $1,385/oz platinum (Q3 2024 - $963) and $1,171/oz palladium (Q3 2024 - $970), $101/t Fe 62% CFR China (Q3 2024 - $100), $64.93/bbl WTI oil (Q3 2024 - $75.09) and $3.07/mcf Henry Hub natural gas (Q3 2024 - $2.24). For YTD 2025, the average commodity prices were as follows: $3,199/oz gold (YTD 2024 - $2,296), $34.98/oz silver (YTD 2024 - $27.21), $1,142/oz platinum (2024 - $951) and $1,041/oz palladium (YTD 2024 - $973), $101/t Fe 62% CFR China (YTD 2024 - $112), $66.70/bbl WTI oil (YTD 2024 - $77.54) and $3.48/mcf Henry Hub natural gas (YTD 2024 - $2.22). Net GEOs are GEOs sold, net of direct operating costs, including for our stream GEOs, the associated ongoing cost per ounce.

Adjusted Net Income Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined by the Company as Adjusted Net Income divided by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share are non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the following from net income and EPS: income tax expense/recovery; finance expenses and finance income; depletion and depreciation; impairment charges and reversals related to royalty, stream and working interests and investments; gains/losses on disposals of royalty, stream and working interests and investments; impairment losses and expected credit losses related to equity investments, loans receivable and other financial instruments, changes in fair value of investment, loans receivable and other financial instruments, and foreign exchange gains/losses and other income/expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined by the Company as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
