Description of the Business

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 or on operating mines producing precious or other metals. 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.

The Company’s business strategy is to acquire existing Royalty and Stream interests, or to finance production, development, or in some circumstances, exploration stage projects in exchange for Royalty or Stream interests. In the ordinary course of business, Maverix engages in a continual review of opportunities to acquire existing Royalty or Stream interests, or to create new Royalties or Streams on operating mines, development projects and exploration projects. The Company currently has over 100 Royalties and Streams, of which 13 of the underlying mines are paying, excluding royalty payments from industrial minerals and power assets.

(“Karora”) announced the closing of the agreement to reduce the gold royalties at Karora’s Beta Hunt mine from 7.5% to 4.75%, effective July 1, 2020, in exchange for total cash consideration of $18.0 million (the “Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment”). The total consideration of $18.0 million included $13.0 million for the reduction of the Company’s royalty interest in the Beta Hunt mine and a $5.0 million one-time bonus royalty payable in two equal instalments of $2.5 million. The Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment will allow both the Company and Karora shareholders to benefit from a renewed focus on exploration, development and potential future production growth at the Beta Hunt mine. Upon closing, the Company received $15.5 million. The remaining $2.5 million was received in January 2021.

Secondary Offering and Exercise of Warrants by Pan American

In May 2020, the Company and Pan American Silver Corp. (“Pan American”) announced they entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters, pursuant to which Pan American undertook an overnight marketed public offering of 9,000,000 common shares of the Company held by Pan American (the “Secondary Offering”). In addition, Pan American granted the underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 1,350,000 common shares of the Company held by Pan American on the same terms and conditions as the Secondary Offering. Concurrently, Pan American also notified the Company of its intention to exercise 8,250,000 common share purchase warrants upon closing of the Secondary Offering.

In June 2020, the Company and Pan American announced the closing of the Secondary Offering, including the exercise in full of the over-allotment option. Concurrent with the closing of the Secondary Offering, Pan American exercised 8,250,000 warrants of the Company and the Company received $15.6 million in gross proceeds.

Quarterly Dividends Declared

On February 18, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per common share payable on March 15, 2021 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 26, 2021.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company continues to monitor and assess potential impacts of the novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, on its employees and business. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company closed its office, implemented a travel ban, and directed all of its employees to work remotely. No employees have contracted COVID-19 as of the date of this report.

Though the current COVID-19 global health pandemic is significantly impacting the global economy commodity, and financial markets, as at the date of this MD&A, Maverix is only aware of two operations in which it has a Royalty or Stream interest that were temporarily suspended during 2020, being the La Colorada and San Jose mines. Both mines have since resumed operations.

There are a number of potential impacts that could restrict our operating partners’ ability to operate as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mining operations in which Maverix holds a Royalty or Stream interest could be suspended for precautionary purposes or as governments declare states of emergency or take other actions in an effort to combat the spread of COVID-19. Refer to the “Risks and Uncertainties” section of this MD&A.

Year Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2019

For the year ended December 31, 2020, net income and cash flow from operations were $23.7 million and $33.0 million, respectively, compared with a net loss and cash flow from operations of $7.7 million and $21.0 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019. The change is attributable to a combination of factors including:

· In September 2020, the company completed the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment. As a result, the Company recognized a gain on the amendment of its Beta Hunt royalty interest of $9.3 million, current income tax expense of $4.3 million, income taxes paid of $1.5 million and an increase in working capital from the receipt of $2.5 million of the $5.0 million one-time bonus royalty. Further, Karora discovered the Father’s Day Vein, a high-grade gold discovery area at the Beta Hunt mine in September 2018 and subsequently announced the temporary six-month suspension of bulk mining production, which resulted in lower royalty revenue and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019;

· Production at the Moss mine has continued to ramp up, resulting in an increase in both sales and cash flows of $5.9 million and $4.7 million, respectively;

· In August 2019, the Company purchased the 1.5% NSR Royalty and 0.25% NSR Royalty (collectively the “Additional Hope Bay Royalties”) in addition to the Company’s existing 1.0% NSR Royalty on the Hope Bay mine. The acquisition of the Additional Hope Bay Royalties contributed to the increase in both royalty revenue and cash flows of $2.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively;

· In December 2019, the Company acquired a paying royalty on the Omolon mine which provided an increase in both royalty revenue and cash flows of $4.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively;

· A 27% increase in the average realized gold price per GEO;

· Net income increased by $1.9 million due to the revaluation of warrants held by the Company recorded in other income; and

· Net income and cash flows were increased by $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, due to the appreciation of the Australian dollar against the US dollar during 2020.

Partially offset by:

· Decrease in royalty revenue of $0.5 million and cash flow of $1.1 million from the Mt Carlton mine as a consequence of the ore body becoming narrower and more irregular than it had previously been;

· Decrease in both sales and cash flow of $0.9 million and $0.7 million from Silvertip as mining and processing activities were suspended in early 2020 due to deteriorating zinc and lead market conditions;

· Both net income and cash flow from operations were reduced by $1.1 million from the cost of acquiring more gold and silver under the Company’s Stream agreements with respect to increased sales;

· Net income decreased by $4.8 million due to the increase in depletion charges associated with the increase in total revenue and GEOs sold during the year;

· Both net income and cash flow from operations were reduced by an increase in cash administration and project evaluation expenses of $1.5 million due to the increase in activities required to acquire and then manage the Company’s growing portfolio of assets;

· During the year ended December 31, 2019, net income was decreased by the recognition of a non-cash impairment of $14.2 million on our Amulsar royalty interest; and

· Net income was reduced by an increase in finance expense of $0.6 million due to additional amounts drawn on the Company’s credit facility during late 2019 and 2020, and partially repaid during 2020.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, total revenue was $51.7 million and GEOs were 28,916¹ compared with total revenue of $33.7 million and GEOs of 24,021¹ for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Changes in sales, net income and cash flow from operating activities from quarter to quarter are affected primarily by fluctuations in production at the underlying mines, the timing of shipments, changes in the price of commodities, as well as acquisitions of Royalties and Streams and the commencement of operations of mines under construction. For more information, refer to the quarterly commentary below.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019

For the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company had net income of $5.3 million and cash flow from operations of $7.7 million compared with net loss and cash flow from operations of $11.2 million and $7.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in net income and cash flow were attributable to a combination of factors including:

· Production at the Moss mine has continued to ramp up, resulting in an increase in both sales and cash flows of $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively;

· An increase in both royalty revenue and cash flow of $1.6 million and $2.4 million due to a full quarter of royalty revenue from the Omolon mine which was acquired in December 2019;

· An increase in royalty revenue of $0.6 million from each of the Hope Bay and El Mochito mines due to increased attributable production; and

· A 27% increase in the average realized gold price per GEO.

Partially offset by:

· Decrease in both sales and cash flow of $0.2 million and $0.2 million from Silvertip as mining and processing activities were suspended in early 2020 due to deteriorating zinc and lead market conditions;

· Both net income and cash flow from operations were reduced by $0.4 million from the cost of acquiring more gold and silver under the Company’s Stream agreements with respect to increased sales;

· Net income decreased by $2.6 million due to the increase in depletion charges associated with the increase in total revenue for the period;

· Both net income and cash flow from operations were reduced by an increase in cash administration and project evaluation expenses of $0.5 million due to the increase in activities required to acquire and then manage the Company’s growing portfolio of assets;

· Cash flow from operations was reduced by a one-time income tax payment of $1.5 million for the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment;

· During the three months ended December 31, 2019, net income was decreased by the recognition of a non-cash impairment of $14.2 million on our Amulsar royalty; and

· Net income decreased by $0.9 million due to the revaluation of warrants held by the Company recorded in other income.

For the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company had record quarterly revenue of $16.6 million and record quarterly GEOs of 8,836¹ compared with total revenue of $10.5 million and GEOs of 7,096¹ for the three months ended December 31, 2019.

For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Other Quarters Presented

When comparing net income of $5.3 million and cash flow from operations of $7.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 with net income (loss) and operating cash flows for other quarters presented in the table of Summary of Quarterly Results above, the following items impact comparability of the analysis:

· In September 2020, the company completed the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment. As a result, the Company recognized a gain on the amendment of its Beta Hunt royalty interest of $9.3 million and current income tax expense and taxes paid of $4.3 million. Further, Karora discovered the Father’s Day Vein in 2018, resulting in the Company recognizing royalty revenue of $2.4 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Subsequent to the discovery of the Father’s Day Vein, Karora announced the temporary suspension of bulk mining to focus on exploration and delineation drilling and has now ramped up production at the mine;

· The Company recognized an increase in net income of $2.9 million due to revaluation of warrants held during the three months ended September 30, 2020;

· The Company recognized a non-cash impairment of $14.2 million on its Amulsar royalty interest during the three months ended December 31, 2019;

· The Company acquired silver streams on the Moss mine in December 2018 and the El Mochito mine in March 2019, the additional 1.5% NSR royalty on Hope Bay in August 2019 and the Kinross royalty portfolio in December 2019, all of which contributed full quarters of royalty or stream income subsequent to their acquisitions;

· A number of underlying mines on which the Company has a Royalty or Stream interest have continued to ramp up or began production over the past years, including the Florida Canyon mine, the Moss mine, and the El Mochito mine; and

· Net income being reduced by $0.3 million related to the initial listing costs for the NYSE American and TSX during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Change in Total Assets

Total assets increased by $54.2 million from September 30, 2020 to December 31, 2020 primarily resulting from the acquisition of the Royalty Portfolio from Newmont, which was financed by the issuance of common shares of the Company and a cash payment of $15.0 million. The net increase in total assets from the acquisition of the Royalty Portfolio was partially offset by the cash consideration paid of $15.0 million, a $3.0 million repayment under the Company’s credit facility and depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests.

Total assets decreased by $14.8 million from June 30, 2020 to September 30, 2020 primarily resulting from the repayment of $41.0 million under the Company’s credit facility, depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests and amendment of the Company’s royalty interest in the Beta Hunt mine. The decrease in total assets was partially offset by funds received on closing of the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment and increase in the carrying value of investments due to fair value adjustments.

Total assets increased by $32.8 million from March 31, 2020 to June 30, 2020 primarily resulting from an increase in cash on hand from $15.6 million in gross proceeds received from the warrant exercise, the drawdown of an additional $10.0 million under the credit facility and the results of operations for the quarter. The net increase in total assets was partially offset by depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests.

Total assets decreased by $7.7 million from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020 primarily resulting from the partial repayment of outstanding amounts under the credit facility using right of first refusal proceeds which were receivable at December 31, 2019, a decrease in carrying value of investments due to disposal and fair value adjustments and depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests. The net decrease in total assets was partially offset by an increase in cash on hand from drawing down $10.0 million under the credit facility.

16

Total assets increased by $57.4 million from September 30, 2019 to December 31, 2019 primarily resulting from the acquisition of the Kinross Portfolio, which was financed by the issuance of common shares of the Company, cash flow from operations and drawdown of an additional $18.0 million from the credit facility. The net increase in total assets from the acquisition of the Kinross royalty portfolio was partially offset by impairment of the Company’s royalty interest on the Amulsar mine and depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests.

Total assets increased by $40.7 million from June 30, 2019 to September 30, 2019 primarily resulting from the acquisition of the additional 1.5% NSR royalty on the Hope Bay mine and the acquisition of common shares in conjunction with the royalty acquisition.

Total assets decreased by $3.4 million from March 31, 2019 to June 30, 2019 primarily resulting from the partial repayment of outstanding amounts under the credit facility using operating cash flow and depletion of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests.

Non-IFRS and Other Measures

The Company has included, throughout this document, certain performance measures, including (i) adjusted net income and adjusted basic earnings per share, (ii) Average realized gold price per GEO, (iii) Average cash cost per GEO, (iv) cash operating margin, and (v) operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital. The presentation of these non-IFRS and other measures are 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. These non-IFRS and other measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and other companies may calculate these measures differently.

i. Adjusted net income and adjusted basic earnings per share are calculated by excluding the effects of other income/expenses, impairment charges, gains/(losses) on sale or amendment of royalty and streams and unusual non-recurring items. The Company believes that in addition to measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the results of the underlying business of the Company. Management believes that this is a useful measure of the Company’s performance because it adjusts for items which may not relate to or have a disproportionate effect on the period in which they are recognized, impact the comparability of our core operating results from period to period, are not always reflective of the underlying operating performance of our business and/or are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

The table below provides a reconciliation of the adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share:

	Three months ended December 31, 2020		Three months ended December 31, 2019			Year ended December 31, 2020			Year ended December 31, 2019

ii. Average realized gold price per GEO is calculated by dividing the Company’s total revenue by the GEOs sold. The Company presents average realized gold price per GEO as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other royalty and streaming companies in the precious metals mining industry that present results on a similar basis. The table below provides a reconciliation of average realized price per GEO:

	Three months ended December 31, 2020		Three months ended December 31, 2019		Year ended December 31, 2020		Year ended December 31, 2019
Total revenue	$	16,569	$	10,499	$	51,681	$	33,712
Divided by:
GEOs sold1[10]		8,836		7,096		28,916		24,021
Equals:
Average realized gold price per GEO	$	1,875	$	1,480	$	1,787	$	1,403

iii. Average cash cost per GEO is calculated by dividing the Company’s cost of sales, excluding depletion, by the GEOs sold. The Company presents average cash cost per GEO as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other royalty and streaming companies in the precious metals mining industry who present results on a similar basis. The table below provides a reconciliation of average cash cost per GEO:

	Three months ended December 31, 2020		Three months ended December 31, 2019		Year ended December 31, 2020		Year ended December 31, 2019
Cash cost of sales is comprised of:
Cost of sales, excluding depletion	$	1,628	$	1,215	$	5,020	$	3,927
Divided by:
GEOs sold		8,836		7,096		28,916		24,021
Equals:
Average cash cost per GEO	$	184	$	171	$	174	$	163

iv.

Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost per GEO from the average realized gold price per GEO. The Company presents cash operating margin as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other royalty and streaming companies in the precious metals mining industry that present results on a similar basis.

v.

The Company has also used the non-IFRS measure of operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital. This measure is calculated by adding back the decrease or subtracting the increase in changes in non-cash working capital to or from cash provided by operating activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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). As at December 31, 2020, the Company had $88.0 million available under its credit facility. In February 2021 after receiving $50.0 million from the Hope Bay Buyback, the Company repaid the $32.0 million outstanding under the credit facility at December 31, 2020, leaving the full $120.0 million available.

Cash flow from operations

For the year ended December 31, 2020, cash flow from operations was $33.0 million, compared with $21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, with the increase primarily attributable to the Company’s growing portfolio of cash flowing Royalties and Streams and a 27% increase in the realized gold price per GEO, as previously discussed in more detail.

¹The Company’s royalty revenue and silver sales are converted to a GEO basis by dividing the royalty revenue plus silver sales for a period by the average gold price based on the LBMA Gold Price PM Fix per ounce for the same respective period. Total GEOs sold includes the GEOs from the Company’s royalty revenue and silver sales plus the gold ounces sold from the Company’s gold Stream.

18

Cash flow used in investing activities

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had net cash outflows of $0.6 million from investing activities primarily due to cash consideration for the Newmont Royalty Portfolio, the purchase of investments and the income taxes paid of $2.8 million from the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment. This was partially offset by $12.0 million in ROFR proceeds received in connection with the acquisition of the Kinross royalty portfolio and net proceeds from the closing of the Beta Hunt Royalty Amendment. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had net cash outflows from investing activities of $76.3 million primarily from the cash portion of the consideration for the Kinross royalty portfolio and the purchase of the additional 1.5% NSR royalty on the Hope Bay mine and the El Mochito Stream.

Cash flow (used in) from financing activities

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had net cash outflows from financing activities of $29.5 million, which was primarily the result of Company repaying $57.0 million of its credit facility, dividend payments of $6.4 million and financing costs associated with our credit facility of $2.3 million. The net cash outflows were partially offset by the drawdown of $20.0 million from the Company’s credit facility and net proceeds received from the exercise of warrants by Pan American and stock options. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had net cash inflows from financing activities of $55.2 million, which was primarily the result of drawdowns on the credit facility to fund or partially fund the cash consideration paid for the acquisition of the Kinross Portfolio, the Additional Royalty and Bonus Royalty on the Hope Bay mine and the El Mochito Stream. The cash inflows were partially offset by repayment of the Company’s credit facility and financing costs associated with amending the Company’s credit facility agreement.

Liquidity

We believe our current financial resources and funds generated from operations will be adequate to cover anticipated expenditures for general and administration and project evaluation costs and anticipated minimal capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. Our long-term capital requirements are primarily affected by our ongoing activities related to the acquisition or creation of Royalties and Streams.

The Company currently, and generally at any time, has acquisition opportunities in various stages of active review. In the event of the acquisition of one or more significant Royalties or Streams, we may seek additional debt or equity financing as necessary.

Purchase Commitments:

In connection with its Streams, the Company has committed to purchase the following:

	Percent of life of mine production			Per ounce cash payment: Lesser of amount below and the then prevailing market price (unless otherwise noted)
Gold Stream interests
La Bolsa		5	%	$	450
La Colorada		100	%	$	650
Silver Stream interests
El Mochito		22.5	%(1)		25% of silver spot price
Moss		100	%(2)		20% of silver spot price

⁽¹⁾ If 3.0 million ounces of silver are delivered to Maverix prior to April 1, 2022, Maverix’s silver purchase entitlement will be 20% of life of mine silver production.

⁽²⁾ After 3.5 million ounces of silver are delivered, Maverix’s silver purchase entitlement will be 50% of the remaining life of mine silver production.

In connection with the acquisition of the Silvertip Royalty in 2017, the Company may issue an additional 1,400,000 common shares of the Company when the Silvertip mine achieves commercial production and a cumulative throughput of 400,000 tonnes of ore through the processing plant is achieved.

Critical Accounting Judgements and Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Company’s management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. However, actual results may differ from those estimates included in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in Notes 2 and 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Instruments

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 share capital, reserves, accumulated other comprehensive income, and retained earnings (deficit), and $32.0 million (December 31, 2019: $69.0 million) drawn under the Company’s 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. The Company is in compliance with its debt covenants as at December 31, 2020.

20

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 receivable are subject to the credit risk of the counterparties who own and operate the mines underlying Maverix’s royalty portfolio.

Currency Risk

Financial instruments that affect the Company’s net income due to currency fluctuations include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments, 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 US dollar 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 considers anticipated cash flows from operations and its holding of cash and cash equivalents. 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. In February 2021, the Company repaid the $32.0 million outstanding under the credit facility at December 31, 2020, leaving the full $120.0 million available.

Other Risks

The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding common shares in other mining companies. The combined fair market value as at December 31, 2020 is $18.2 million (December 31, 2019: $7.1 million). 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.

Outstanding Share Data

As at March 22, 2021, the Company had 141,007,812 outstanding common shares, 3,479,533 outstanding share purchase options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of CAD$4.34, 192,694 outstanding restricted share units, and 10,000,000 outstanding share purchase warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $2.84.

Risks and Uncertainties

A few of the primary risk factors affecting the Company are set forth below. For a full discussion of risk factors, please refer to the section “Risk Factors” contained in the Company’s Annual Information Form (“AIF”) available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Public Health Crises, including the COVID-19 Pandemic may Significantly Impact Maverix

Maverix’s business, operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by public health crises, including epidemics, pandemics and or other health crises, such as the outbreak of COVID-19. The current COVID-19 global health pandemic is significantly impacting the global economy and commodity and financial markets. The full extent and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is unknown and to date has included extreme volatility in financial markets, a slowdown in economic activity, extreme volatility in commodity prices (including precious metals) and has raised the prospect of a global recession. The international response to COVID-19 has led to significant restrictions on travel, temporary business closures, quarantines, global stock market volatility and a general reduction in consumer activity, globally. Public health crises, such as the COVID-19 outbreak, can result in operating, supply chain and project development delays that can materially adversely affect the operations of third parties in which Maverix has an interest. Mining operations in which Maverix holds an interest could be suspended for precautionary purposes or as governments declare states of emergency or other actions are taken in an effort to combat the spread of COVID-19. If the operation or development of one or more of the properties in which Maverix holds a royalty, stream or other interest and from which it receives or expects to receive significant revenue is suspended, it may have a material adverse impact on Maverix’s profitability, results of operations, financial condition and the trading price of Maverix’s securities.

The risks to Maverix’s business include without limitation, the risk of breach of material contracts and customer agreements, employee health, workforce productivity, increased insurance premiums, limitations on travel, the availability of industry experts and personnel, prolonged restrictive measures put in place in order to control an outbreak of contagious disease or other adverse public health developments globally and other factors that will depend on future developments beyond Maverix’s control, which may have a material and adverse effect on Maverix’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, Maverix may experience business interruptions as a result of suspended or reduced operations at the mines in which Maverix has an interest, relating to the COVID-19 outbreak or such other events that are beyond the control of Maverix, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on Maverix’s business, operating results, financial condition and the market for its securities. As at the date of this MD&A, the duration of any business disruptions and related financial impact of the COVID-19 outbreak cannot be reasonably estimated. It is unknown whether and how Maverix may be affected if such pandemic, such as the COVID-19 outbreak, persists for an extended period of time.

Maverix Has No Control Over Mining Operations

Maverix is not directly involved in the operation of mines. The revenue Maverix may derive from its portfolio of Royalty and Stream assets is based on production from third party mine owners and operators. Maverix will enter into precious metal purchase agreements to purchase a certain percentage of precious metals or other metals produced by certain mines and operations and Maverix expects to receive payments under Royalty agreements from certain mines and operations, however, Maverix will not have a direct interest in the operation or ownership of those mines and projects. The owners and operators generally will have the power to determine the manner in which the properties are exploited, including decisions to expand, continue or reduce, suspend or discontinue production from a property, decisions about the marketing of products extracted from the property and decisions to advance exploration efforts and conduct development of non-paying properties. The interests of third-party owners and operators and those of Maverix in respect of a relevant project or property may not always be aligned. The inability of Maverix to control the operations for the properties in which it has a Royalty, Stream or other interest may result in a material adverse effect on the profitability of Maverix, the results of operations of Maverix and its financial condition. Except in a limited set of circumstances as specified in a specific Royalty or Stream, Maverix will not receive compensation if a specific mine or operation fails to achieve or maintain production or if the specific mine or operation is closed or discontinued. In addition, mining operations in respect of which Maverix holds an indirect interest may not commence commercial production and there can be no assurance that such mines or project will achieve profitable and continued production levels. In addition, the owners or operators may take action contrary to policies or objectives of Maverix; be unable or unwilling to fulfill their obligations under their agreements with Maverix; have difficulty obtaining or be unable to obtain the financing necessary to move projects forward; or experience financial, operational or other difficulties, including insolvency, which could limit the owner or operator’s ability to perform its obligations under arrangements with Maverix. Maverix is also subject to the risk that a specific mine or project may be put on care and maintenance or have its operations suspended, on both a temporary or permanent basis.

The owners or operators of the projects or properties in which Maverix holds an interest may from time to time announce transactions, including the sale or transfer of the projects or of the operator itself, over which Maverix has little or no control. If such transactions are completed it may result in a new operator controlling the project, who may or may not operate the project in a similar manner to the current operator which may positively or negatively impact Maverix. If any such transaction is announced, there is no certainty that such transaction will be completed, or completed as announced, and any consequences of such non-completion on Maverix may be difficult or impossible to predict.

22

Changes in Commodity Prices that underlie Royalty, Stream or Other Interests

The price of Maverix’s Common Shares may be significantly affected by declines in commodity prices. The revenue derived by Maverix from its asset portfolio will be significantly affected by changes in the market price of commodities that underlie the Royalty, Stream or other investments or interests of Maverix. Maverix’s revenue is particularly sensitive to the changes in the price of gold and silver. The cash flows and revenues derived by Maverix from its asset portfolio are dependent on the price of gold and gold production from those assets. The price of gold and other commodities fluctuates daily and are affected by factors beyond the control of Maverix, including levels of supply and demand, industrial development, inflation and interest rates, the U.S. dollar’s strength and geopolitical events. External economic factors that affect commodity prices can be influenced by changes in international investment patterns, monetary systems and political developments.

All commodities, by their nature, are subject to wide price fluctuations and future material price declines will result in a decrease in revenue or, in the case of severe prolonged declines that cause a suspension or termination of production by relevant operators, a complete cessation of revenue from Royalties, Streams or working interests applicable to one or more relevant commodities. While Maverix has focused on assembling a portfolio of assets that provide primary exposure to gold and silver production and prices, the commodity market trends are cyclical in nature and a general downturn in commodity prices could result in a significant decrease in overall revenue.

Third Party Reporting

Maverix relies on public disclosure and other information regarding specific mines or projects that is received from the owners or operators of the mines or other independent experts. The information received may be susceptible to being imprecise as the result of it being compiled by certain third parties. The disclosure created by Maverix may be inaccurate if the information received contains inaccuracies or omissions, which could create a material adverse effect on Maverix. In addition, a Royalty or Stream agreement may require an owner or operator to provide Maverix with production and operating information that may, depending on the completeness and accuracy of such information, enable Maverix to detect errors in the calculation of Royalty or Stream amounts owed. As a result, the ability of Maverix to detect payment errors through its associated internal controls and procedures is limited, and the possibility exists that Maverix will need to make retroactive adjustments. Of the Royalty or Stream agreements that Maverix enters into, some may provide Maverix the right to audit the operational calculations and production data for associated payments; however, such audits may occur many months following the recognition by Maverix of the applicable revenue and may require Maverix to adjust its revenue in later periods. As a holder of an interest in a Royalty or Stream, Maverix will have limited access to data on the operations or to the actual properties underlying the Royalty or Stream. This limited access to data or disclosure regarding operations could affect the ability of Maverix to assess the performance of the Royalty or Stream. This could result in delays in cash flow from that which is anticipated by Maverix based on the stage of development of the properties covered by the assets within the portfolio of Maverix.

Environmental Risks

All phases of mine operation or development are subject to governmental regulation including environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions in which they operate. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and heightened responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the mines and projects in which Maverix has an interest and consequently, the results of Maverix’s operations. Also, unknown environmental hazards may exist on the properties at present which were caused by previous or existing owners or operators of the properties and which could impair the commercial success, levels of production and continued feasibility and project development and mining operations on these properties. One or more of the mining companies may become liable for such environmental hazards caused by previous owners or operators of the properties.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. Parties engaged in mining operations or in the exploration or development of mineral properties may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the mining activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. The occurrence of any environmental violation or enforcement action may have an adverse impact on the operations at the mines and projects in which Maverix has an interest in, Maverix’s reputation and could adversely affect Maverix’s results of operations.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and its Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in the rules of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission and Canadian Securities Administrators. Based upon the results of that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the appropriate time periods and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuer’s Annual and Interim Filings in Canada (“NI 52-109”) and under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in the United States. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes:

· maintaining records, that in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

· providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB;

· providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are made in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and

· providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2020 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and no material weaknesses were identified.

There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures.

Limitation of Controls and Procedures

The CEO and CFO, in consultation with management, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Forward-Looking Statements

This MD&A contains “forward-looking information” or "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking information is provided as of the date of this MD&A and Maverix does not intend to and does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking information, except as required by applicable law. For this reason and the reasons set forth below, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, or “believes” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. Forward-looking information is based on reasonable assumptions that have been made by Maverix as at the date of such information and is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, limited to: the impact of general business and economic conditions; the absence of control over mining operations from which Maverix will purchase precious metals or from which it will receive stream or royalty payments, and risks related to those mining operations, including risks related to international operations, government and environmental regulation, delays in mine construction and operations, actual results of mining and current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans are refined; problems related to the ability to market precious metals or other metals; industry conditions, including commodity price fluctuations, interest and exchange rate fluctuations; interpretation by government entities of tax laws or the implementation of new tax laws; the volatility of the stock market; competition; risks related Maverix’s dividend policy; the potential impact of epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the current outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), on the Company's business, operations and financial condition; also, those risk factors discussed in this MD&A and under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s AIF for the year ended December 31, 2020 available at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov.

Forward-looking information in this MD&A includes disclosure regarding payments to Maverix pursuant to Royalties and Streams by owners or operators of the underlying mining operations or projects. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of material assumptions, which management of Maverix believe to be reasonable, including, but not limited to, the continuation of mining operations in respect of which Maverix will receive Royalty payments or from which it will purchase precious or other metals, that commodity prices will not experience a material adverse change, mining operations that underlie Royalties or Streams will operate in accordance with disclosed parameters and such other assumptions as may be set out herein.

Although Maverix has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results to not be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. Readers of this MD&A should carefully review the risk factors set out in this MD&A and those risk factors that are set out in the AIF under the heading “Risk Factors”.

Technical and Third-Party Information

Brendan Pidcock, P.Eng., Vice President Technical Services for Maverix and a qualified person as defined under NI 43-101 has reviewed and approved the written scientific and technical disclosure contained in this document.

Except where otherwise stated, the disclosure in this MD&A relating to properties and operations in which Maverix holds Royalty, Stream or other interests is based on information publicly disclosed by the owners or operators of these properties and information/data available in the public domain as at the date hereof, and none of this information has been independently verified by Maverix. Specifically, as a Royalty or Stream holder, Maverix has limited, if any, access to properties on which it holds Royalties, Streams, or other interests in its asset portfolio. The Company may from time to time receive operating information from the owners and operators of the mining properties, which it is not permitted to disclose to the public. Maverix is dependent on, (i) the operators of the mining properties and their qualified persons to provide information to Maverix, or (ii) on publicly available information to prepare disclosure pertaining to properties and operations on the properties on which the Company holds Royalty, Stream or other interests, and generally has limited or no ability to independently verify such information. Although the Company does not have any knowledge that such information may not be accurate, there can be no assurance that such third-party information is complete or accurate. Some reported public information in respect of a mining property may relate to a larger property area than the area covered by Maverix’s Royalty, Stream or other interest. Maverix’s Royalty, Stream or other interests may cover less than 100% of a specific mining property and may only apply to a portion of the publicly reported mineral reserves, mineral resources and or production from a mining property.
