(tabular amounts expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per share amounts)

1. Nature of activities

Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd and its subsidiaries (together, "Osisko" or the "Company") are engaged in the business of acquiring and managing royalties, streams and similar interests on precious metals and other commodities that fit the Company's risk/reward objectives. Osisko is a public company domiciled in the Province of Québec, Canada, whose shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange and is constituted under the Business Corporations Act (Québec). The address of its registered office is 1100, avenue des Canadiens-de-Montréal, Suite 300, Montréal, Québec. The Company owns a portfolio of royalties, streams, offtakes, options on royalty/stream financings and exclusive rights to participate in future royalty/stream financings on various projects. The Company's main asset is a 3-5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty on the Canadian Malartic Complex, located in Québec, Canada.

2. Basis of presentation

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB. The accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are currently effective requirements or forthcoming requirements. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's current or future

reporting periods and are therefore not discussed herein, with the exception of the amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (Non-current Liabilities with Covenants), and IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which are discussed below.

Amendments - IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (Non-current Liabilities with Covenants)

Amendments made to IAS 1 in 2020 and 2022 clarified that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is affected by the entity's expectations or events after the reporting date (e.g. the receipt of a waiver or a breach of covenant).

Covenants of loan arrangements will not affect classification of a liability as current or non-current at the reporting date if the entity must only comply with the covenants after the reporting date. However, if the entity must comply with a covenant either before or at the reporting date, this will affect the classification as current or non-current even if the covenant is only tested for compliance after the reporting date.

The amendments require disclosures if an entity classifies a liability as non-current and that liability is subject to covenants that the entity must comply with within 12 months of the reporting date. The disclosures include:

  • the carrying amount of the liability;
  • information about the covenants; and
  • facts and circumstances, if any, that indicate that the entity may have difficulty complying with the covenants.

The amendments also clarify what IAS 1 means when it refers to the "settlement" of a liability. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the transfer of the entity's own equity instrument can only be ignored for the purpose of classifying the liability as current or non-current if the entity classifies the option as an equity instrument. However, conversion options that are classified as a liability must be considered when determining the current/non-current classification of a convertible note.

The amendments must be applied retrospectively in accordance with the normal requirements in IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. These amendments did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

2. Basis of presentation (continued)

IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, with a focus on updates to the statement of profit or loss. IFRS 18 was issued in response to investors' concerns about the comparability and transparency of entities' performance reporting. The new requirements introduced in IFRS 18 will help to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities, especially related to how 'operating profit or loss' is defined. The new disclosures required for some management-defined performance measures will also enhance transparency. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:

  • the structure of the statement of profit or loss;
  • required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity's financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures); and
  • enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1; many of the other existing principles in IAS 1 are retained, with limited changes. IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements, but it might change what an entity reports as its 'operating profit or loss'.

IFRS 18 will apply for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and also applies to comparative information. Management has not yet evaluated the impact that this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Cash

As at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the consolidated cash position was as follows:

    March 31,     December 31,

(i) Cash held in U.S. dollars amounted to US$36.4 million as at March 31, 2024 (US$19.3 million as at December 31, 2023

4. Short-term investments

As at March 31, 2024, short-term investments were comprised of a US$6.9 million ($9.3 million) note receivable from an associate, bearing an interest rate of 18.5% and having a maturity date of May 31, 2024. The note receivable is secured by the assets of the associate.

In April 2024, the maturity date of the Facility was extended from September 29, 2026 to April 30, 2028. The uncommitted accordion is subject to acceptance by the lenders. The Facility is to be used for general corporate purposes and investments in the mineral industry, including the acquisition of royalties, streams and other interests. The Facility is secured by the Company's assets.

The Facility is subject to standby fees. Funds drawn bear interest based on the base rate, prime rate or secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), plus an applicable margin depending on the Company's leverage ratio. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repaid a total amount of $43.6 million on the Facility. As at March 31, 2024, the effective interest rate on the drawn balance was 7.1%, including the applicable margin.

10. Share-based compensation (continued)

Share options (continued)

The options, when granted, are accounted for at their fair value determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the vesting period and on the following weighted average assumptions:

 

Three months ended
March 31, 2024

 

Year ended
December 31, 2023

Dividend per share

Weighted average share price

$18.55

 

$18.08

Weighted average fair value of options granted

$5.88

The expected volatility was estimated using Osisko's historical data from the date of grant and for a period corresponding to the expected life of the options. Share options are exercisable at the closing market price of the common shares of the Company on the day prior to their grant.

The fair value of the share options is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the total share-based compensation related to share options amounted to $0.6 million ($0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023).

Deferred and restricted share units

The Company offers a deferred share units ("DSU") plan and a restricted share units ("RSU") plan, which allow DSU and RSU to be granted to directors, officers and/or employees as part of their long-term compensation package.

The following table summarizes information about the DSU and RSU movements:

      Three months ended

Balance - End of period   378,272     762,382     414,278     717,105  
Balance - Vested   324,124     -     365,098     -  

(i) Unless otherwise decided by the Board of Directors of the Company, the DSU vest the day prior to the next annual general meeting and are payable in common shares, cash or a combination of common shares and cash, at the sole discretion of the Company, to each non-executive director when he or she leaves the board or is not re-elected. The value of the payout is determined by multiplying the number of DSU expected to vest at the settlement date by the closing price of the Company's shares on the day prior to the grant date. The fair value is recognized over the vesting period. On the settlement date, one common share will be issued for each DSU, after deducting any income taxes payable on the benefit earned by the director that must be remitted by the Company to the tax authorities. The DSU granted in 2024 have a weighted average value of $19.20 per DSU ($21.16 per DSU in 2023).

Deferred and restricted share units (continued)

(ii) One half of the RSU is time-based (the "time-based RSU") and the other half depends on the achievement of certain performance measures (the "performance-based RSU"). The time-based RSU granted prior to 2024 vest and are payable three years after the grant date. The time-based RSU granted in 2024 vest and are payable 1/3 at each anniversary of the grant date. The performance-based RSU vest and are payable three years after the grant date. The RSU are payable in common shares, cash or a combination of common shares and cash, at the sole discretion of the Company. The value of the payout is determined by multiplying the number of RSU expected to vest at the settlement date by the closing price of the Company's shares on the day prior to the grant date. The fair value is recognized over the vesting period and is adjusted for the performance-based components, when applicable. On the settlement date, one common share is issued for each vested RSU, after deducting any income taxes payable on the benefit earned by the employee that must be remitted by Osisko to the tax authorities. The RSU granted in 2024 have a weighted average value of $18.62 per RSU ($17.87 per RSU in 2023).

The total share-based compensation expense related to the DSU and RSU plans for the three months ended March 31, 2024 amounted to $1.5 million ($1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023).

Based on the closing price of the common shares at March 31, 2024 ($22.23), and considering a marginal income tax rate of 53.3%, the estimated amount that Osisko is expected to transfer to the tax authorities to settle the employees' tax obligations related to the vested DSU and RSU to be settled in equity amounts to $3.8 million ($3.7 million as at December 31, 2023) and to $13.5 million based on all DSU and RSU outstanding ($11.4 million as at December 31, 2023).

14. Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.

The following table presents the changes in the Level 3 investments (comprised of warrants and convertible instruments) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

    2024     2023  
    $     $  
             
Balance - January 1   9,105     26,903  
   Change in fair value - investments held at the end of the period (i)   428     383  
Balance - March 31   9,533     27,286  

(i)  Recognized in the consolidated statements of income under other gains, net.

The fair value of the financial instruments classified as Level 3 depends on the nature of the financial instruments.

The fair value of the warrants on equity securities and the convertible instruments of publicly traded mining exploration and development companies, classified as Level 3, is determined using directly or indirectly the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The main non-observable input used in the model is the expected volatility. An increase/decrease in the expected volatility used in the models of 10% would have resulted in an insignificant variation of the fair value of the warrants and convertible instruments as at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Financial instruments not measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets

Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are represented by cash, short-term investments, revenues receivable from royalty, stream and other interests, other receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt. The fair values of cash, short-term investments, revenues receivable from royalty, stream and other interests, other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of the liability under the revolving credit facility approximates its fair value given that the credit spread is similar to the credit spread the Company would obtain under similar conditions at the reporting date. The fair values of the non-current notes approximate their carrying values as there were no significant changes in economic and risk parameters or assumptions related to the instruments since these financial instruments have been fully provisioned.
