Select Royalty Asset Updates

  • Silvertip: Coeur Mining ("Coeur") reported that operating activities at the Silvertip Mine in British Columbia are ramping up with processing rates averaging 300 tonnes per day in July and periodically exceeding 500 tonnes per day. Coeur made capital expenditures during the quarter of US$19.0 million (including US$4.7 million of capitalized drilling) in development and process facility commissioning, bringing first half capital expenditures to US$37.7 million. Commercial production at Silvertip is expected to commence during the third quarter.


    Coeur also announced the results of the first phase of its 2018 drill program. The 44,500 metre drill program successfully discovered several new mineralized zones which Coeur believes demonstrates strong potential for future resource growth. Given the success of this initial program, Coeur has approved and commenced a US$4 million second phase focused on expanding resources and testing prospective targets located on the mine's 93,000 acre land package.

(1) Maverix has included certain performance measures in this press release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) including adjusted net income, average cash cost per attributable gold equivalent ounce, cash operating margin and operating cash flow excluding non-cash working capital. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate cash flow. These measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. For a reconciliation of these measures to various IFRS figures, please see the following descriptions or the Company's current Management Discussion and Analysis disclosure found on the Company's website or on SEDAR. Adjusted net income is calculated by excluding the effects of other income/expenses, impairment charges, gains/(losses) on sale of royalty and streams and unusual non-recurring items. Average cash cost per attributable gold equivalent ounce is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion, by the ounces sold. Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost per ounce from the average realized selling price per ounce of gold. The Company's royalty revenue is converted to an Attributable Gold Equivalent ounce basis by dividing the royalty revenue for a period by the average gold price based on the LBMA Gold Price PM Fix per ounce for the same respective period. These attributable gold equivalent ounces when combined with the gold ounces sold from the Company's gold streams (individually and collectively referred to as "Attributable Gold Equivalent") equal total Attributable Gold Equivalent ounces sold. Operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital is calculated by adding back the decrease or subtracting the increase in changes in non-cash working capital to or from cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Note these figures have not been audited and are subject to change.
