MONTREAL, Feb. 22, 2022 - Vincent Metcalfe, CEO and Chair of the Board of Directors of Nomad Royalty Company Ltd. ("Nomad" or the "Company") stated "2021 was a transformative year for Nomad as our team successfully delivered on the many milestones laid out upon our initial listing in May 2020. Over the past 18 months, our team delivered four major acquisitions of high-quality royalties and streams and demonstrated that we have the required skill set and partnerships to add significant growth through M&A. In 2022, we will continue to execute on accretive deals to further fuel growth and increase asset diversification."

The recent highlights include:

• New value accretive transactions for a total over $220 million on near-term cash flowing royalties and streams, including the Platreef Gold Stream, the Greenstone Gold Stream and the Caserones Copper Royalty
• Implementing innovative ESG-linked long-term financial commitment on the Greenstone Gold Stream, pioneer in the precious metals royalty sector
• Listing on the New York Stock Exchange
• Increasing credit facility by $75 million to $125 million
• Maintaining sector leading dividend yield at 2.1%, one of the highest in the precious metals royalty sector
• Completing offering for gross proceeds of C$42.5 million in the beginning of January 2022
• Maintaining low general and administrative expenses compared to peers
• Establishing various tools to enhance financial flexibility including the at-the-market equity program for up to $50 million, normal course issuer bid program and dividend reinvestment plan

Major acquisitions announced in 2021 have significantly enhanced 3-year GEO growth (2022-2025) to 130% for Nomad's portfolio of assets compared to 8% at Nomad's creation in May 2020, less than two years ago.

Guidance

In 2022, Nomad expects attributable royalty and stream sales to total 23,000 to 27,000 Gold equivalent ounces^([1]) ("GEOs") using commodity prices of $1,800 per ounce for gold, $24.00 per ounce for silver and $4.00 per pound of copper.

Attributable royalty and stream sales are expected to reach 60,000 GEOs⁽¹⁾ by 2025 based on the same commodity prices as those underpinning 2022 guidance. This guidance assumes the start of operations at the Greenstone and Platreef mines in 2024 and Cortez complex's Robertson deposit in 2025.

The 2022 and 3-year guidance are based on our assessment of public forecasts and other disclosure by the third-party owners and operators of our assets.

Non-IFRS Measures and Other Measures:

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 (i) adjusted net income (loss), (ii) cash operating margin attributable to Nomad and (iii) cash cost of sales.

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.

In addition to the non-IFRS performance measures described below, the Company's royalty and stream revenues are converted to GEOs 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. 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.

Adjusted Net Income (loss)

Adjusted net income (loss) is calculated by removing the effects of the non-cash cost of sales related to the gold prepay loan, the non-cash change in fair value of the conversion option for the Deferred Payment to Yamana Gold Inc. and the non-cash change in fair value of gold prepay loan and the deferred income tax recovery related to stream interests subject to the RTO Transaction. The Company believes that, in addition to measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net income (loss) (in thousands of dollars).

Cash Operating Margin Attributable to Nomad

Cash operating margin attributable to Nomad is calculated by subtracting the cash cost of sales from the total revenues adjusted to remove revenues attributable to non-controlling shareholders. 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.

The following table provides a calculation of cash operating margin attributable to Nomad (in thousands of dollars).

Cash Cost of Sales

Cash cost of sales is calculated by subtracting depletion and non-cash costs of sales related to the gold prepay loan from the total cost of sales. In addition to measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate cash flow in comparison with other streaming and royalty companies in the precious metals mining industry who present similar measures of performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash cost of sales (in thousands of dollars).
