Segment performance
In 2024, Osisko Gold Royalties earned 80,740 gold equivalent ounces (GEOs). Annual revenues reached a record $191.2 million with a cash margin of 96.5%. GEOs were predominantly from Canada, with over 93% derived from precious metals (67% gold, 27% silver, remainder copper). The company ended 2024 with $59 million in cash and net debt of just under $35 million.
Guidance
- 2025 GEO guidance: 80,000 to 88,000 GEOs, back-half weighted due to factors like mine sequencing, silver grade sequencing, and slower ramp-ups from newer assets.
- 2029 five-year outlook: Lower than last year's due to absence of Eagle mine, offset by Dalgaranga's first production possibly in late-2026, and includes development assets like Dalgaranga, Windfall, Hermosa, Marimaca. Mantos Blancos Phase 2 expansion optionality to be clearer in Q4 2025.
Q&A highlights
Q: Tanya Jakusconek asked about the 2025 production profile split and capital allocation.
A: Jason Attew said Q1 is likely the weakest quarter, Q2 picks up, back half stronger. On capital allocation, focus is on high-quality assets, disciplined with transactions between $50M and $500M, open to syndicated deals, and will be opportunistic with share buybacks if value is seen.
Q: Adrian Day asked if they'd exchange copper assets for gold.
A: Jason Attew said they're open to accretive transactions, are a precious metal vehicle but open to creative structures if accretive to shareholders.
