TORONTO, Nov. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ – Franco-Nevada Corporation (TSX: FNV) (NYSE: FNV) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.
Highlights include:
— Net income of $35.3 million or $0.24 per share;— Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $80.3 million or $0.55 per share;
— Acquisition of royalties for $70.9 million; and
— Working capital of $891.1 million and no debt.
“Franco-Nevada’s strong revenues and earnings despite lower gold prices demonstrates the benefits of our business model and having a diversified portfolio. Franco-Nevada continues to generate strong free cash-flow and maintains a very strong balance sheet with no debt,” said David Harquail, President and CEO of Franco-Nevada. “One of the key differentiators of Franco-Nevada is its focus on exploration optionality and its willingness to make long-term investments in geologically favorable mineral belts. Since our last report, we have added more than 20 new royalties covering both historic great gold camps such as Kirkland Lake and many prospective new exploration projects. These additions further cement Franco-Nevada as having the largest number and land acreage of royalty and stream assets in this business. ”
Financial Results
Gold Equivalent Ounces(2) (“GEOs”) earned by Franco-Nevada from its royalty and stream mineral interests for the quarter were 57,452 representing a decrease of 1.5% over the comparable period in 2012. The lower GEOs reflect a decline in net profit interest royalties which are more sensitive to lower gold prices. Gold equivalent royalty and stream ounces are estimated for gross ounces and, in the case of stream ounces, before the payment of approximately $400 per gold equivalent ounce paid by the Company. In addition, our oil & gas assets generated $22.3 million in revenues during the quarter compared to $8.4 million in 2012 which was due to the acquisition of a net royalty interest in the Weyburn Unit in November 2012. Revenue was earned 74% from precious metals (61% gold and 13% PGMs) and 83% from North America and Australia (40% Canada, 18% U.S., 20% Mexico and 5% Australia).
The breakdown of revenue and GEOs is as follows:

Revenue was $98.8 million (2012 – $105.2 million) for the quarter with the decrease attributable to lower average commodity prices partially offset by higher revenue from the Company’s oil assets. Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $80.3 million (2012 – $86.4 million), or $0.55 per share (2012 – $0.59 per share) for the quarter.

$36.0 million (less the royalty proceeds attributable to the buy-back
portion of the NSR that has been paid to Franco-Nevada prior to the date
of the buy back).— Barrick Portfolio – Canada, Australia, Rest of World: On November 4,
2013, the Company acquired a portfolio of approximately 20 royalties from
Barrick Gold Corporation for $20.9 million.
Portfolio Update
— Gold – U.S.: Barrick Gold Corporation announced higher capital costs
associated with its thiosulphate project at Goldstrike, which resulted in
lower revenues from Franco-Nevada’s Net Profits Interest (“NPI”) royalty
for the quarter and is expected to impact the NPI in the fourth quarter
of 2013.— Gold – Canada: Detour Gold Corporation (“Detour”) announced the
achievement of commercial production at its Detour Lake mine on August
12, 2013 with the mine continuing to ramp-up to steady-state production.
For 2013, Detour is forecasting gold production of approximately 270,000
ounces. Franco-Nevada holds a 2% NSR royalty on the property. Lake Shore
Gold Corp. announced the completion of its Bell Creek mill expansion
during the third quarter of 2013, which increased milling capacity by 50%
from 2,000 tonnes per day to over 3,000 tonnes per day. The expansion
will benefit Franco-Nevada’s royalty on the Timmins West property which
hosts the Timmins and Thunder Creek deposits as well as the Gold River
Trend and 144 exploration zones. Pretium Resources Inc. announced that
its bulk sampling process is progressing on its Brucejack gold project.
The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency Federal Review Panel issued
their report on Taseko Mines Limited’s New Prosperity gold-copper project
citing concerns over the potential impact on the water quality, fish and
fish habitat of Fish Lake. The New Prosperity project will require
approval from the federal government for its development and has not been
included in Franco-Nevada’s long term projections.— Gold – Australia: Regis Resources Ltd. (“Regis”) announced that the
development of its Rosemont Gold project, which comprises part of the
Duketon project, is expected to be completed in December 2013. Regis
expects gold production of 48,000 to 53,000 ounces from Rosemont for
Regis’ 2014 financial year. The Duketon project includes the Moolart Well
& Garden Well gold mines as well as the Rosemont Gold project, all of
which is subject to the Company’s 2% NSR. Alacer Gold Corp. has entered
into a binding agreement to sell its Australian Business Unit, which
includes the South Kalgoorlie operations on which Franco-Nevada has a
royalty, to a subsidiary of Metals X Limited, an Australian
publicly-listed company.— Gold – Rest of World: First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (“First Quantum”)
announced its intention to provide a full update on the Cobre Panama
project in Q4 2013. Under the terms of the previously disclosed precious
metals stream agreement between subsidiaries of Franco-Nevada and Inmet
Mining Corporation (now First Quantum), Franco-Nevada has a precious
metals stream on the Cobre Panama project to acquire an amount of
precious metals indexed to the copper in concentrate produced from the
project. Pursuant to the agreement, Franco-Nevada has committed to fund
up to $1.0 billion for the development of Cobre Panama. New Gold Inc.
announced that a minor pit wall movement occurred at its Cerro San Pedro
Mine in Mexico and that approximately 15,000 ounces of gold production
would be carried forward from 2013 into future periods. Sibanye Gold
announced the acquisition of Gold One International Limited’s West Rand
Operations which includes the Cooke 4 complex. Franco-Nevada has a 7%
gold stream on Cooke 4. In Turkey, Alamos Gold Inc. announced that its A
ý Da ý project has progressed to the final stage of the
approval process. This follows news that the company received final
signatures approving the Kirazli EIA and that A ý Da ý should
be able to be progressed in a similar time frame. Franco-Nevada holds a
2% NSR on the A ý Da ý property which includes the A ý Da
ý and Camyurt deposits. Perseus Mining Limited released a revised
life of mine plan which estimates an average gold production of 230,000
ounces per year for its Edikan gold project in Ghana, where Franco-Nevada
holds a sliding-scale NSR.— PGM Assets: Stillwater Mining Company has reiterated its 2013 production
guidance of approximately 500,000 ounces of mined palladium and platinum
with development continuing on the Graham Creek project, which is part of
its East Boulder Mine and the Far West project, which is part of the
Stillwater Mine. Franco-Nevada holds a 5% NSR on metals produced from 813
of the 995 claims that cover the Stillwater complex.— Other Assets: Augusta Resource Corporation has announced that the
completion date for the Final Environmental Impact Statement for its
Rosemont Copper project is expected in November 2013. Glencore Xstrata
plc, the operator of the Falcondo nickel operation, announced that it
will suspend operations at Falcondo citing the continued weakness in
nickel prices. Falcondo was restarted in 2011 at 50% capacity and has
traditionally acted as a swing producer and has not been included in the
Company’s 5 year guidance.
2013 Guidance
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, attributable royalty and stream production was in-line with the Company’s expectations. The Company expects to receive a total of 215,000 to 235,000 GEOs from its mineral assets and exceed $65.0 million in revenue from its oil & gas assets in 2013. Gold equivalent royalty and stream ounces are estimated for gross ounces and, in the case of stream ounces, before the payment of approximately $400 per gold equivalent ounce paid by the Company. For the remainder of 2013, platinum and palladium metals have been converted to GEOs using estimated commodity prices of $1,350/oz Au, $1,400/oz Pt and $725/oz Pd. The WTI oil price is assumed to average $95 per barrel with similar price discounts for Canadian oil as experienced in the first half of 2013.
Dividend Declaration and Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Board of Directors of Franco-Nevada declared the monthly dividend of $0.06 per share for each of January, February and March 2014. The January dividend will be paid on January 30, 2014 to shareholders of record on January 16, 2014, the February dividend will be paid on February 27, 2014 to shareholders of record on February 13, 2014 and the March dividend will be paid on March 27, 2014 to shareholders of record on March 13, 2014.

In addition, statements (including data in tables) relating to GEOs are forward looking statements as they involve implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, and no assurance can be given that the estimates will be realized. Such forward looking statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to management. Often, but not always, forward looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “predicts”, “projects”, “intends”, “targets”, “aims”, “anticipates” or “believes” or variations (including negative variations) of such words and phrases or may be identified by statements to the effect that certain actions “may”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Franco-Nevada to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements. A number of factors could cause actual events or results to differ materially from any forward looking statement, including, without limitation, fluctuations in the prices of the primary commodities that drive royalty and stream revenue (gold, platinum group metals, copper, nickel, uranium, silver, iron-ore and oil & gas), fluctuations in the value of the Canadian and Australian dollar, Mexican peso, and any other currency in which revenue is generated, relative to the US dollar, changes in national and local government legislation, including permitting and licensing regimes and taxation policies, regulations and political or economic developments in any of the countries where properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest are located or through which they are held, risks related to the operators of the properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest, including changes in the ownership and control of such operators, influence of macroeconomic developments, business opportunities that become available to, or are pursued by Franco-Nevada, reduced access to debt and equity capital, litigation, title, permit or license disputes related to interests on any of the properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest, whether or not the Company is determined to have PFIC status, excessive cost escalation as well as development, permitting, infrastructure, operating or technical difficulties on any of the properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest, rate and timing of production differences from resource estimates, risks and hazards associated with the business of development and mining on any of the properties in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest, including, but not limited to unusual or unexpected geological and metallurgical conditions, slope failures or cave-ins, flooding and other natural disasters or civil unrest, and the integration of acquired assets. The forward looking statements contained in this press release 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 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 adverse development in respect of any significant property in which Franco-Nevada holds a royalty, stream or other interest, 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 and readers are cautioned that forward looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Franco-Nevada cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward looking statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein.
