Altius Reports Royalty Revenue of $17.5M and $66.9M for the Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2018 and Provides Revenue Guidance for 2019 of $67-$72M

17.01.2019  |  Business Wire

Altius Minerals Corp. (TSX: ALS; OTCQX: ATUSF) (“Altius” or the “Corporation”) reports that it will release audited financial results for its three month and twelve month period ended December 31, 2018 on March 12, 2019 after the close of market, with a conference call to follow March 13, 2019 at 9:00 am ET.

Altius expects to report attributable royalty revenue1 of approximately $17.5 million ($0.41 per share) for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to $17.1 million ($0.40 per share) in Q3 2018 and to $13.7 million ($0.32 per share) in the two month period ended December 31, 2017, when Altius was transitioning to a December year end. Full year attributable royalty revenue is expected to be approximately $66.9 million ($1.56 per share) which compares to $46.7 million ($1.08 per share) during the abbreviated previous year comparable period.

(1) LIF dividends received

The results, which are consistent with the mid range of guidance, were positively impacted by higher potash prices and production volumes and higher metallurgical coal volumes. These factors were negatively offset by the election of Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp. (LIORC) to withhold an unusual amount of its free cash flows from shareholder dividends during the second half of the year, and by lower base metal prices.

Altius anticipates $67-72 million in attributable royalty revenue in 2019, which assumes current commodity prices and incorporates information received from mine operators with regards to expected production volumes where provided and assumptions based upon historical production rates and other publicly available information in other cases.

At year end, the Corporation had approximately $28 million in cash, $115 million in debt, and $139 million in investments, which are primarily the position in LIORC and the junior equity portfolio as detailed in the press release dated January 10, 2019.

More detail on royalty revenue, costs and outlook will be provided in the upcoming year end disclosure.
