Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Maverix Metals Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Maverix Metals Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2019, the related consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and changes in equity for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has elected to change its presentation currency from the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar. The change is as of January 1, 2020, and has been retrospectively applied, and the statement of financial position as of January 1, 2019, has been included pursuant to the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Limited, a private English company limited by guarantee.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

1.	NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Maverix Metals Inc. (“Maverix” or the “Company”) is incorporated and domiciled in Canada and its registered head office address is Suite 575, 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3A8, Canada. The Company’s common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange American and Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “MMX”.

Maverix is a resource-based company that seeks to acquire and manage royalties and metal purchase agreements (a “Stream” or “Streams”) on projects that are in an advanced stage of development, on operating mines producing precious or other metals, or in some circumstances, exploration stage projects. Royalty interests (“Royalty” or collectively, “Royalties”) are non-operating interests in mining projects that provide Maverix with the right to a percentage of the gross revenue from the metals produced from the project (a “Gross Revenue Royalty” or “GRR”) or, the net revenue after the deduction of specified costs (a “Net Smelter Returns Royalty” or “NSR” royalty). Under a Stream interest, Maverix makes an upfront payment to acquire the Stream and then receives the right to purchase, at a fixed or variable price per unit based on the spot price of the precious or other metal, a percentage of a mine’s production for the life of mine or a specified time period.

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of the Company on March 22, 2021.

2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”).

Basis of Preparation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair value. The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“USD”) (Note 2g), unless otherwise noted.

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiaries Maverix Metals (Australia) Pty Ltd. and Maverix Metals (Nevada) Inc. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date the Company obtains control and continues to be consolidated until the date that control ceases. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

All intercompany balances, transactions, revenues and expenses have been eliminated on consolidation.

Royalty, Stream and Other Interests

Royalty, stream and other interests consist of acquired royalty, stream and other interests. These interests are recorded at cost and capitalized as tangible assets with finite lives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depletion and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Project evaluation expenses that are not related to a specific royalty or stream asset are expensed in the period incurred.

Producing royalty and stream interests are depleted using the units-of-production method over the life of the property to which the interest relates, which is estimated using available information of proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources expected to be classified as mineral reserves at the mine corresponding to the specific agreement.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

On acquisition of a royalty or stream interest, an allocation of its fair value may be attributed to the exploration potential of the interest (non-depletable interest) and is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 6, Exploration and Evaluation of Mineral Resources (“IFRS 6”). Once the technical feasibility, commercial viability and a development decision have been established, the value of the asset is reclassified and accounted for in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment (“IAS 16”). The exploration and evaluation asset is subject to an impairment test prior to reclassification in accordance with IFRS 6.

Impairment of Royalty, Stream and Other Interests

Evaluation of the carrying values of each mineral interest is undertaken when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Impairment is assessed at the level of cash-generating units, which is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows and largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. This is usually at the individual royalty, stream, or other interest level for each property from which cash inflows are generated.

An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCD”) and its value in use (“VIU”). Estimated future cash flows are calculated using estimated production, sales prices and a discount rate. Estimated future production is determined using current reserves and the portion of resources expected to be classified as mineral reserves, as well as exploration potential expected to be converted into resources or reserves. Estimated sales prices are determined by reference to an average of long-term metal price forecasts by research analysts and management’s expectations. The discount rate is estimated using an average discount rate incorporating research analyst views used to value precious metal royalty and streaming companies. All inputs used are those that an independent market participant would consider appropriate. In addition, the Company may use other market approaches for determining the recoverable amount which may include an estimate of (i) dollar value per unit of mineral reserve/resource; (ii) cash-flow multiples; (iii) comparable transactions or (iv) market capitalization of comparable assets.

An assessment is made at each reporting period if there is any indication that a previous impairment loss may no longer exist or has decreased. If indications are present, the carrying value of the royalty or stream interest is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount net of depletion that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the royalty or stream interest in previous periods.

Royalty and stream interests classified as exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist in accordance with IFRS 6. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is comprised of revenue earned from royalty, stream and other interests. The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of the relevant commodity to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those commodities.

For Royalty interests, revenue recognition occurs when control of the relevant commodity is transferred to the end customer by the operator of the royalty property. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable when management can reliably estimate the amount, pursuant to the terms of the royalty agreement. In some instances, the Company will not have access to sufficient information to make a reasonable estimate of consideration to which it expects to be entitled and, accordingly, revenue recognition is deferred until management can make a reasonable estimate. Differences between estimates and actual amounts are adjusted and recorded in the period that the actual amounts are known.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

For Streams, revenue recognition occurs when the relevant commodity received from the stream operator is delivered by the Company to its third-party customers. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable when management can reliably estimate the amount, pursuant to the terms of the sales contract.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the principal currency of the economic environment in which they operate. The functional currency of the Company and its significant wholly-owned subsidiaries is the USD.

Foreign currency transactions, including revenues and expenses, are translated into the functional currency at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of each transaction or valuation when items are re-measured. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the operation’s functional currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of those transactions and from period-end translations are recognized in the consolidated statement of income (loss).

Effective January 1, 2020, the Company elected to change its presentation currency from the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) to USD. The change in presentation currency is to better reflect the Company’s business activities and to improve investors’ ability to compare the Company’s financial results with other publicly traded precious metals royalty and streaming companies. The Company has applied the change to USD presentation currency retrospectively and restated the comparative financial information as if the new presentation currency had always been the Company’s presentation currency.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, right of first refusal (“ROFR”) receivable, investments, trade and other payables, and the credit facility. All financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and designated as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on account and short-term deposits with maturities from the date of acquisition of three months or less, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to insignificant changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Trade receivables relate to amounts received from sales of refined gold and silver and royalty revenue. ROFR receivable relates to the underlying right of a property owner to repurchase a specific royalty (Note 4). These receivables are non-interest bearing and are recognized at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost. We have applied the simplified approach to determining expected credit losses, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised upon initial recognition of the receivables.

Investments in common shares are designated as fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) unless they are irrevocably designated, on an individual basis, as fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”). Investment transactions are recognized on the trade date with transaction costs included in the underlying balance. Fair values are determined by reference to quoted market prices at the statement of financial position date.

When investments in common shares designated as FVTOCI are disposed of, the cumulative gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income are not recycled to the consolidated statement of income (loss) and remain within equity. Dividends received are recognized in income and these investments are not assessed for impairment.

The consideration for investments in units including common shares and share purchase warrants are allocated on a pro-rata basis, based on relative fair values at the date of issuance. The fair value of common shares are based on the market closing price. The fair value of share purchase warrants is determined using the quoted market price or if the warrants are not traded, using the Black-Scholes Model (“BSM”) as of the date of issuance.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

Investments in warrants are classified as FVTPL. These warrants are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognized as a component of net income (loss).

Trade and other payables and the credit facility are initially recorded at fair value, less transaction costs. These financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost, calculated using the effective interest rate method.

Inventory

When refined gold or silver is delivered to the Company under a Stream agreement it is initially recorded as inventory. The amount recognized as inventory includes both the cash payment and the related depletion associated with the underlying Stream interest. At such time the inventory is sold, the amounts recognized in inventory are recorded as cost of sales and depletion.

Income taxes

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used are those that are substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for accounting. The change in the net deferred income tax asset or liability is included in income, except for deferred income tax relating to equity items which are recognized directly in equity. The income tax effects of differences in the periods when revenue and expenses are recognized in accordance with the Company’s accounting practices, and the periods they are recognized for income tax purposes are reflected as deferred income tax assets or liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the substantively enacted statutory income tax rates which are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the assets are realized or the liabilities settled. A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available for utilization. Temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit are not recognized.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity and are intended to be settled on a net basis.

The determination of current and deferred taxes requires interpretations of tax legislation, estimates of expected timing of reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and estimates of future earnings.

Share Capital and Share Purchase Warrants

Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from the proceeds in equity in the period where the transaction occurs.

The fair value of common shares issued for goods and services is based on the fair value of the goods or services received unless the fair value cannot be readily determined. If the fair value cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the market closing price on the date the shares are issued, while the fair value of share purchase warrants is estimated using the quoted market price or if the warrants are not traded, using the BSM as of the date of issuance.

Share purchase warrants issued with an exercise price denominated in the Company’s functional currency (USD) are considered equity instruments with the consideration received reflected within shareholders’ equity under the classification of share purchase warrants reserve. Upon exercise, the original consideration is reallocated from share purchase warrants reserve to issued share capital along with the associated exercise price.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive common share equivalents, which includes dilutive share options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and warrants computed using the treasury stock method.

Share Based Payments

The Company recognizes share based compensation expense for share purchase options, RSUs and common shares granted to directors, officers, employees and consultants under the Company’s equity-based incentive plans based on the fair values at the date of grant.

Share purchase options

The fair value of share purchase options is determined using the BSM, with market related inputs as of the grant date. The BSM requires management to estimate the expected volatility, expected term, risk-free rate of return over the term, expected dividends, and the number of equity instruments expected to ultimately vest. Volatility is estimated using the historic stock price of the Company and similar listed entities, the expected term is estimated using historical exercise data of the Company and similar listed entities, and the number of equity instruments expected to vest is estimated using historical forfeiture data.

The fair values of share purchase options at the date of grant are expensed over the vesting periods with a corresponding increase to equity. Share purchase options with graded vesting schedules are accounted for as separate grants with different vesting periods and fair values.

Restricted share units

The fair value of RSUs is determined by the market value of the underlying shares at the date of the grant. Under the Company’s RSU Plan, the Board of Directors has the discretion to settle the vested RSUs in cash or equity. As the Company does not have a present obligation to settle the issued RSUs in cash, the RSUs issued have been treated as equity-settled instruments. The fair values of RSUs at the date of grant are expensed over the vesting periods with a corresponding increase to equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company re-assesses its estimates of the number of awards that are expected to vest and recognizes the impact of any revisions to this estimate in equity.

Common shares

The fair value of common shares granted is determined by the market value of the underlying shares at the date of the grant. The fair value of the common shares is expensed with a corresponding increase to equity.

Related Party Transactions

Parties are considered related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered related if they are subject to common control or significant influence. A transaction is considered a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Segment Reporting

The Company’s reportable operating segments are components of the Company’s business where discrete financial information is available and which are evaluated on a regular basis by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker, for the purpose of assessing performance. An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities, operating results are reviewed with respect to resource allocation and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company’s executive head office and general corporate administration (including finance expenses) are included within ‘Corporate’ to reconcile the reportable segments to the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 14 for summary of the Company’s segmented information.

3.	CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.

Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and judgments made by management in preparing the consolidated financial statements are described below.

Attributable Reserve and Resource Estimates

Royalty, stream and other interests comprise a large component of the Company’s assets and as such, the mineral reserves and resources of the properties to which the interests relate have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company estimates the reserves and resources relating to each agreement. Reserves are estimates of the amount of minerals that can be economically and legally extracted from the mining properties at which the Company has royalty, stream or other interest, adjusted where applicable to reflect the Company’s percentage entitlement to minerals produced from such mines. The Company estimates its reserves and resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, depth, and shape of the ore body, and requires complex geological judgments to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital requirements, and production costs along with geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the ore body. Changes in the reserve or resource estimates may impact the carrying value of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests and depletion charges.

The Company’s royalty, stream and other interests are depleted on a units-of-production basis, with estimated recoverable reserves and resources being used to determine the depletion rate for each of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions, including the amount of recoverable resources to be converted into reserves. Changes to depletion rates are accounted for prospectively.

Fair Value of Acquired Royalty, Stream and Other Interests

The determination of the fair values of acquired royalty, stream and other interests requires the use of estimates and assumptions for recoverable production, commodity prices, discount rates, mineral reserve/resource conversion, foreign exchange rates, taxes, future capital expansion plans and the associated production implications. In addition, the Company may use other approaches in determining fair value which may include estimates related to (i) dollar value per unit of mineral reserve/resource; (ii) cash-flow multiples; (iii) comparable transactions and (iv) market capitalization of comparable assets. Changes in any of the estimates used in determining the fair value could impact the acquisition date fair values of the royalty, stream and other interests.

Impairment of Royalty, Stream and Other Interests

Assessment of impairment of royalty, stream and other interests requires the use of judgments, assumptions and estimates when assessing whether there are any indicators that could give rise to the requirement to conduct a formal impairment test as well as in the assessment of fair values.

The assessment of the fair values of royalty, stream and other interests requires the use of estimates and assumptions for recoverable production, commodity prices, discount rates, mineral reserve/resource conversion, foreign exchange rates, taxes, future capital expansion plans and the associated production implications. In addition, the Company may use other approaches in determining fair value which may include estimates related to (i) dollar value per unit of mineral reserve/resource; (ii) cash-flow multiples; (iii) comparable transactions and (iv) market capitalization of comparable assets. Changes in any of the estimates used in determining the fair value of the royalty, stream and other interests could impact the impairment analysis.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, no impairment charges were recorded. During the year ended December 2019, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $14.2 million (Note 5b).

Income Taxes

The interpretation of new and existing tax laws or regulations in Canada, Australia, the United States of America, or any of the countries in which our royalty, stream and other interests are located or to which shipments of gold or silver are made or received requires the use of judgment. Differing interpretation or changes to these laws or regulations could result in an increase in the Company’s taxes, or other governmental charges, duties or impositions. In addition, the recoverability of deferred income tax assets, including expected periods of reversal of temporary differences and expectations of future taxable income, are assessed by management at the end of each reporting period and adjusted, as necessary, on a prospective basis. Refer to Note 13 for more information.

Estimation Uncertainty and COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to COVID-19. The current and expected impacts on global commerce are anticipated to be far reaching. To date there has been significant volatility in the stock market and in the commodity and foreign exchange markets, restrictions on the conduct of business in many jurisdictions and the global movement of people and some goods has become restricted. In the current environment, estimates and assumptions about future production, commodity prices, exchange rates, discount rates, future capital expansion plans and associated production implications at the underlying mines in which the Company holds a royalty or stream interest are subject to greater variability than normal, which could significantly affect the valuation of our assets, both non-financial and financial. As at December 31, 2020, the Company has not recorded any adjustments related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

4.	ROYALTY AND STREAM TRANSACTIONS

During the Year Ended December 31, 2020

Newmont Portfolio Acquisition

In October 2020, the Company completed the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) entered into with Newmont Corporation (“Newmont”) to acquire a portfolio of 11 royalties (the “Newmont Portfolio”). As consideration for the Newmont Portfolio, the Company issued 12,000,000 common shares and paid $15.0 million in cash and has agreed to make contingent cash payments of up to $15.0 million if certain production milestones at certain underlying assets are achieved within five years of closing the Agreement.

Certain of the royalties that were due to be transferred pursuant to the Agreement were subject to certain restrictions on transfer, including a ROFR that permitted the underlying property owner the right to repurchase the specific royalty for cash consideration. The Company has committed to dispose the 1.0% NSR royalty on the Yecora project for cash consideration of $1.5 million. The Yecora royalty has been classified as an asset held for sale at the time of acquisition and at December 31, 2020.

The fair value of the Newmont Portfolio acquired was determined to be $75.0 million. The Company used discounted cash flow models for near-term development assets and comparable transactions for exploration or other assets to determine the fair value of the individual assets within the Newmont Portfolio. The discounted cash flow models used discount rates of 4% to 15% depending on the stage and risk profile of the assets. Metal prices were based on analyst metal price projections and management expectations.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

The excess of the fair value of the Newmont Portfolio of $75.0 million over the cash consideration paid of $15.0 million was allocated to the common shares.

The significant royalties acquired in the Newmont Portfolio include the 2.0% NSR royalty on the oxide and transitional ore of the Camino Rojo project owned by Orla Mining Ltd. and the 1.0% NSR royalty on the Cerro Blanco project owned by Bluestone Resources Inc. The Company also acquired nine development and exploration stage royalties, of which, there are four in the United States, two in Canada and three in Mexico.

Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment

In September 2020, Maverix closed an agreement with Karora Resources Inc. to reduce the gold royalty on the Beta Hunt mine from 7.5% to 4.75%, effective July 1, 2020 (the “Amendment”). Upon closing the Amendment, Maverix received $13.0 million for the reduction of its royalty interest in the Beta Hunt mine and received $2.5 million of the $5.0 million one-time bonus royalty (the “Bonus Royalty Payment”). The remaining $2.5 million of the Bonus Royalty Payment owed was received in January 2021 (Note 17). The Bonus Royalty Payment was recorded as deferred revenue and will be amortized into royalty revenue over approximately one and a half years from the effective date. The Company recorded and paid $4.3 million in current taxes and recognized a deferred tax asset of $0.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 as a result of the Amendment.

During the Year Ended December 31, 2019

Kinross Portfolio Acquisition

In December 2019, the Company completed the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “PSA”) entered into with Kinross Gold Corporation (“Kinross”) to acquire a portfolio of royalties (the “Kinross Portfolio”). As consideration, the Company issued 11,228,674 common shares and paid $25.0 million in cash.

The fair value of the Kinross Portfolio acquired was determined to be $74.0 million. The Company used discounted cash flow models for producing or near-term development assets and comparable transactions for exploration or other assets to determine the fair value of the individual assets within the Kinross Portfolio. The discounted cash flow models used discount rates of 5% to 10% depending on the stage and risk profile of the assets. Metal prices were based on analyst metal price projections and management expectations.

Certain of the royalties that were due to be transferred pursuant to the PSA were subject to certain restrictions on transfer, including a ROFR that permitted the underlying property owner the right to repurchase the specific royalty for cash on the same valuation as established by Kinross and Maverix. Prior to the Company completing the PSA, one of the underlying property owners provided notification they were exercising their ROFR. After the exercise of the ROFR, Maverix acquired a total of 24 royalties (the “Kinross Portfolio”) pursuant to the PSA and received aggregate total proceeds of $12.0 million in cash upon the completion of the ROFR transaction.

The excess of the fair value of the Kinross Portfolio of $74.0 million over the cash consideration paid of $25.0 million was allocated to the common shares.

Additional Royalty on Hope Bay

In August 2019, Maverix entered into an agreement to purchase an additional 1.5% NSR royalty on the Hope Bay mine in Nunavut, Canada, previously owned and operated by TMAC Resources Inc. (“TMAC”) for a cash payment of $40.0 million (the “Additional Royalty”). Upon closing of the transaction, Maverix owned a combined 2.5% NSR royalty on the Hope Bay mine. Maverix was also entitled to receive an additional 0.25% NSR royalty until certain conditions with respect to the Additional Royalty were satisfied.

TMAC had the right to buy back the entire Additional Royalty for a cash payment of $50.0 million in the event of a change of control transaction of TMAC (as defined in the Additional Royalty agreement) that was announced prior to June 30, 2021. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the buyback right for the entire Additional Royalty was exercised (Note 17).

El Mochito Stream

In March 2019, Maverix entered into an agreement to purchase 22.5% of the silver produced from Kirungu Corporation’s (“Kirungu”) operating El Mochito mine (the “El Mochito Stream”). As consideration for the El Mochito Stream, Maverix made an upfront cash payment of $7.5 million. If certain production milestones are met, the El Mochito Stream percentage will decrease from 22.5% to 20% for the remaining life of the mine. Maverix will make ongoing cash payments to Kirungu equal to 25% of the spot price of silver for each ounce delivered.

Share Based Payments - Share Option Plan

The Company adopted a stock option and compensation share plan (the “Plan”), which provides that the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, grant directors, officers, employees and consultants, either, (i) common shares of the Company or (ii) non-transferable stock options to purchase common shares of the Company, each set at a price determined by the fair market value of the shares at the date immediately preceding the date on which the option is granted or the common share is issued. Under the Plan, the aggregate number of common shares of the Company reserved for issuance is 7,500,000 common shares. If any option granted under the Plan expires or terminates for any reason in accordance with the terms of the Plan without being exercised, that option shall again be available for the purpose of the Plan. All stock options and incentive shares issued under the Plan vest over a period determined by the Board of Directors.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

The following are the weighted-average assumptions used in the BSM to estimate the fair value of stock options granted for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

	Years ended
	December 31
	2020			2019
Risk-free interest rate		0.5	%		1.6	%
Expected volatility		45	%		47	%
Expected life		3 years			3 years
Expected dividend yield		1.1	%		0.2	%

The weighted-average common share price during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, were $4.78 and $4.13 per share at the time the options were exercised, respectively. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options as at December 31, 2020 was 2.73 years (2019: 3.04 years).

Share Based Payments –RSU Plan

The Company adopted a RSU Plan, which provides that the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, grant directors, officers, employees and consultants, non-transferable RSUs. Each RSU is set at a price determined by the fair market value of the shares at the date immediately preceding the date on which the RSU is granted. Under the RSU Plan, the aggregate number of common shares of the Company reserved for issuance is 3,000,000 common shares. If any RSU granted under the RSU Plan expires or terminates for any reason in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan without vesting, that RSU shall again be available for the purpose of the Plan. All RSUs issued under the Plan vest after three years, unless otherwise determined on the grant date by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has the discretion to settle the vested RSUs in cash or equity.

The following table summarizes RSUs which were outstanding as at December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the changes during the years then ended:

	Number of RSUs Outstanding			Weighted average fair value per RSU (CAD$)
Balance at December 31, 2018		-			-

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company has exposure to a variety of financial risks from its use of financial instruments. This note presents information about the Company's exposure to each of these risks, the Company's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Company's management of capital.

Capital Risk Management

The Company’s primary objective when managing capital is to maximize returns for its shareholders by growing its asset base through accretive acquisitions of royalties, streams and other interests, while optimizing its capital structure by balancing debt and equity. At December 31, 2020, the capital structure of the Company consists of $341.0 million (December 31, 2019: $241.7 million) of total equity, comprising of share capital, reserves, accumulated other comprehensive income, and retained earnings (deficit), and $32.0 million (December 31, 2019: $69.0 million) of drawn Credit Facility. The Company was not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with certain covenants under the Credit Facility (Note 7). The Company is in compliance with its debt covenants at December 31, 2020.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets including cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables in the ordinary course of business. In order to mitigate its exposure to credit risk, the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in several high-quality financial institutions and closely monitors its accounts receivable balances. The Company’s accounts receivables are subject to the credit risk of the counterparties who own and operate the mines underlying Maverix’s royalty portfolio.

Maverix Metals Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

Currency Risk

Financial instruments that impact the Company’s net income due to currency fluctuations include: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments, and trade payables and other denominated in Canadian and Australian dollars. Based on the Company’s Canadian and Australian dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities at December 31, 2020, a 10% increase (decrease) of the value of the Canadian and Australian dollar relative to the USD would increase (decrease) net income by $0.3 million and other comprehensive income by $1.8 million, respectively.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. In managing liquidity risk, the Company takes into account anticipated cash flows from operations, holding of cash and cash equivalents, and the amount available under the Credit Facility. As at December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.8 million (December 31, 2019: $4.8 million) and working capital of $35.1 million (December 31, 2019: $19.9 million). In addition, at December 31, 2020 the Company had $88.0 million available under its Credit Facility (Note 7).

Other Risks

The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding common shares in other mining companies with a combined fair market value as at December 31, 2020 of $18.2 million (December 31, 2019: $7.1 million) (Note 6). The equity prices of investments are impacted by various underlying factors including commodity prices and the volatility in global markets as a result of COVID-19 and the daily exchange traded volume of the equity may not be sufficient for the Company to liquidate its position in a short period of time without potentially affecting the market value of the equity. Based on the Company’s investments held as at December 31, 2020, a 10% increase (decrease) in the equity prices of these investments would increase (decrease) other comprehensive income by $1.8 million.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Investments in common shares held that have direct listings on an exchange are classified as Level 1.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

The following table summarizes the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. In accordance with IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurements, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

	As at December 31, 2020						As at December 31, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, unless stated otherwise)

The fair values of the royalty, stream and other interests acquired through issuance of equity instruments were determined by a market approach using unobservable inputs into discounted cash flow projections and comparable transactions. As a result, for the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019, the acquisition date fair values of royalty and other interests designated as Level 3 fair value measurements were $75.0 million and $74.0 million, respectively.
