Nomad has included certain performance measures in this press release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") including gold equivalent ounces, cash operating margin and cash costs of gold and silver sold. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. | |
(1) | Preliminary gold deliveries include gold equivalent ounces of cash settled amounts for the RDM and Moss net smelter return royalties. |
(2) | The Company's royalty and stream revenues are converted to gold equivalent ounces by dividing revenues for a specific period by the average realized gold price per ounce for the gold stream revenues and by dividing revenues by the average gold price for the gold royalty revenues, for the respective period. Silver earned from royalty and stream agreements are converted to gold equivalent ounces by multiplying the silver ounces by the average silver price for the period and dividing by the average gold price for the period. |
(3) | The Company's gross amount received or receivable from the Caserones copper royalty is converted to gold equivalent ounces by dividing the dividend received or receivable before taxes for a specific period by the average gold price, for the respective period. |
(4) | The financial information disclosed in this press release is preliminary, subject to final quarter-end closing adjustments, and may change materially. |
(5) | Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the cash costs of gold and silver sold from revenues. The Company presents cash operating margin as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance in comparison to other streaming and royalty companies who present results on a similar basis as well as to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow. |
(6) | On August 31, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 37.5% ownership interest in Compania Minera Caserones ("CMC"), a private Chilean company which holds the payment rights to 32.5% of a 2.88% NSR royalty on the Caserones copper mine in Chile representing an effective 0.651% NSR royalty (the "Caserones copper royalty"). |
