Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Vox Royalty Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Vox Royalty Corp. (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “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.

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.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

1. Nature of operations

Vox Royalty Corp. (“Vox” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Company’s registered office is 66 Wellington Street West, Suite 5300, TD Bank Tower Box 48, Toronto, ON, M5K 1E6, Canada. The Company’s common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker symbol “VOX”, and on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “VOXR”.

Vox is a mining royalty company focused on accretive acquisitions. Approximately 80% of the Company’s royalty and streaming assets by royalty count are located in Australia, Canada and the United States. Further, the Company is prioritizing acquiring royalties on producing or near-term producing assets to complement its high-quality portfolio of exploration and development stage royalties.

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 14, 2023.

(b) Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments, which have been measured at fair value. The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“$”), which is also the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.

(c) Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements incorporate the accounts of the Company and its three wholly-owned subsidiaries, SilverStream SEZC (Cayman Islands), Vox Royalty Australia Pty Ltd. (Australia) and Vox Royalty Canada Ltd. (Ontario, Canada).

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date the Company obtains control and continue 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.

(d) Foreign currency translation

In preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Company, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency, are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. All foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end foreign exchange rates are recognized in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

(e) Provisions

Provisions are recorded when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, where it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be estimated. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

The Company had no significant provisions as at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

(f) Royalty, stream and other interests

Royalty, stream and other interests consist of acquired royalty interests and stream metal purchase agreements. 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.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

Project evaluation expenditures are recorded in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) when management determines to not proceed with the proposed acquisition of a royalty.

The major categories of the Company’s interests are producing, advanced and exploration stage. Producing assets are those that have generated revenue from steady-state operations for the Company or are expected to in the next year. Advanced assets are interests on projects that are not yet producing, but where in management's view, the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable. Interests for producing and advanced assets are recorded at cost and capitalized in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment. Management uses the following criteria in its assessment of technical feasibility and commercial viability: (i) geology: there is a known mineral deposit that contains mineral reserves or resources; or the project is adjacent to a mineral deposit that is already being mined or developed and there is sufficient geologic certainty of converting the deposit into mineral reserves or resources, and (ii) accessibility and authorization: there are no significant unresolved issues impacting the accessibility and authorization to develop or mine the mineral deposit, and social, environmental and governmental permits and approvals to develop or mine the mineral deposit appear obtainable. Exploration stage interests are accounted for in accordance with IFRS 6, Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, and are not depleted until such time as the technical feasibility and commercial viability have been established at which point the value of the asset is categorized as being in the advanced stage.

Producing mineral royalty and stream interests are depleted using the units-of-production method over the life of the property to which the interest relates. The life of the property is estimated using life of mine models specifically associated with the mineral royalty or stream properties which include proven and probable reserves and may include a portion of resources expected to be converted into reserves. Where life of mine models are not available, the Company uses publicly available statements of reserves and resources for the mineral royalty or stream properties to estimate the life of the property and portion of resources that the Company expects to be converted into reserves. Where life of mine models and publicly available reserve and resource statements are not available, depletion is based on the Company’s best estimate of the ounces to be produced and delivered under the contract. The Company relies on information available to it under contracts with operators and/or public disclosures for information on reserves and resources from the operators of the producing mineral and stream interests.

If the cost of a royalty, stream or other interest includes contingent consideration, the contingent consideration is capitalized as part of the cost of the interest when the underlying obligating event has occurred.

(g) Impairment of royalty, stream and other interests

Royalty, stream and other interests are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment is assessed at the level of cash-generating units (“CGUs”) which, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, are identified as the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows, which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. This is usually at the individual royalty of stream 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 fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The future cash flow expected is derived using estimates of proven and probable reserves, a portion of resources that is expected to be converted into reserves and information regarding the mineral, respectively that could affect the future recoverability of the Company’s interests. Discount factors are determined individually for each asset and reflect their respective risk profiles. In certain circumstances, the Company may use a market approach in determining the recoverable amount which may include an estimate of (i) net present value of estimated future cash flows; (ii) dollar value per ounce or pound of reserve/resource; (iii) cash-flow multiples; and/or (iv) market capitalization of comparable assets. Impairment losses are charged to the mineral interest and are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognized may no longer exist. An impairment charge is reversed if the conditions that gave rise to the recognition of an impairment loss are subsequently reversed and the interest’s recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount. Impairment losses can be reversed only to the extent that the recoverable amount does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined had no impairment been recognized previously.

(h) Intangible assets

Intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost, which comprises their purchase price plus any directly attributable costs of preparing the asset for its intended use. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over 10 years.

The asset’s residual values, useful lives and methods of amortization are reviewed at each reporting period and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

(i) Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises revenues directly earned from royalty, stream and other similar interests. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the receipt of mineral royalties in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities.

For royalty interests, the commodities are sold by the mine operator to its customers under contracts that are established for the mining property on which the royalty interest is held. The Company recognizes revenue from these sales when control over the commodity transfers from the mine operator to its customer. The transfer of control occurs when the mine operator delivers the commodity to the customer, and at that point, the risk and rewards of ownership transfer to the customer and the Company has an unconditional right to payment under the royalty agreement. Revenue from the royalty arrangement is measured at the transaction price agreed in the royalty arrangement with the operator of each mining property. The transaction price is typically the percentage of gross revenues associated with the commodity sold less contractually allowable costs, if any, per the terms of the royalty arrangement. In some instances, the Company will not have access to sufficient information to make a reasonable estimate of revenue 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.

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

(j) Share capital

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 Black-Scholes model (“BSM”) as of the date of issuance.

(k) Share-based compensation

The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for share purchase options, restricted share units (“RSU”) and performance share units (“PSU”) granted to directors, officers, employees and consultants under the Company’s equity-based incentive plans.

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.

Performance share units

The fair value of PSUs is determined by the market value of the underlying shares at the date of the grant. Under the Company’s PSU Plan, the Board of Directors has the discretion to settle the vested PSUs in cash or equity. The fair values of PSUs at the date of grant are expensed over the vesting periods with a corresponding increase to other liabilities, as the number of common shares to be settled is not fixed. 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 other liabilities.

(l) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances and short-term deposits with a remaining maturity at the date of acquisition of three months or less held in chartered banks. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

(m) Basic and diluted income per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) data for its common shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the earnings or loss of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for shares held in escrow that are subject to contingent release based on conditions other than the passage of time.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the earnings or loss and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for shares held in escrow that are subject to contingent release based on conditions other than the passage of time and for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprise share options granted, RSUs granted, PSUs granted and warrants. Potential common shares that are considered anti-dilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share.

(n) 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 that 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.

(o) Other liabilities – warrants

The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar. As the warrant exercise prices are denominated in Canadian dollars, the warrants are recorded as other liabilities and measured at fair value using the BSM, with changes in fair value from period to period recorded as a gain or loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

(p) Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position when the Company has become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

Financial assets:

Initial recognition and measurement

Non-derivative financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, are classified and measured as “financial assets at fair value”, as either fair value through profit and loss (“FVPL”) or fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”), and “financial assets at amortized cost”, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at the time of initial recognition based on the Company’s business model and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not at FVPL, directly attributable transaction costs on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Subsequent measurement – financial assets at amortized cost

After initial recognition, financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at the end of each reporting period at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (“EIR”) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The Company measures cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable at amortized cost.

Subsequent measurement – financial assets at FVPL

Financial assets measured at FVPL include financial assets management intends to sell in the short term and any derivative financial instrument that is not designated as a hedging instrument in a hedge relationship. Financial assets measured at FVPL are carried at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position with changes in fair value recognized in other income or expense in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The Company measures investments at FVPL.

Subsequent measurement – financial assets at FVOCI

Financial assets measured at FVOCI are non-derivative financial assets that are not held for trading and the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to measure the assets at FVOCI. The Company does not measure any financial assets at FVOCI.

After initial measurement, investments measured at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). When the investment is sold, the cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss.

Dividends from such investments are recognized in other income in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) when the right to receive payments is established.

Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or the Company no longer retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

Financial liabilities:

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVPL as is the case for held for trading or derivative instruments, or the Company has opted to measure the financial liability at FVPL. The Company’s financial liabilities include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are each measured at amortized cost. The Company’s other liabilities are measured at FVPL. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value.

Subsequent measurement – financial liabilities at amortized cost

After initial recognition, financial liabilities measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at the end of each reporting period at amortized cost using the EIR method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in other expenses in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Subsequent measurement – financial liabilities at FVPL

Financial liabilities measured at FVPL include any derivative financial instrument that is not designated as a hedging instrument in a hedge relationship. Financial liabilities measured at FVPL are carried at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position with changed in fair value recognized in other income or expense in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The Company measures other liabilities as financial liability at FVPL.

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires with any associated gain or loss recognized in other income or expense in the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

(q) Impairment

Financial assets

The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses (‘‘ECLs’’) on financial assets measured at amortized cost.

The Company applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9 for receivables, which requires lifetime ECLs to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables. Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. In order to measure the ECLs, receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due.

Receivables are written off where there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, among others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the group, and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 120 days past due. Impairment losses on receivables are presented as net impairment losses within operating income. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.

Non-financial assets

The carrying amount of the Company’s long-lived non-financial assets, including royalty, stream and other interests and intangible assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate an impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its estimated value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In estimating value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets or groups of assets. This is usually at the individual royalty, stream and other interests level for each property from which independent cash flows are generated.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

Impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized. Losses are recognized in profit or loss. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

(r) Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. The Company’s operating segments are components of the Company’s business for which discrete financial information is available and that are reviewed regularly by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company operated in one reportable segment being the acquisition of royalty interests.

(s) Recent accounting pronouncements

Certain pronouncements were issued by the IASB or the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee that are mandatory for accounting periods commencing on or after January 1, 2023. Many are not applicable or do not have a significant impact to the Company and have been excluded. The following have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the Company.

Amendments to IAS 12 – Income Taxes – Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction

Effective on January 1, 2023, the amendments remove the exemption for deferred tax arising on transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

Amendments to IAS 8 – Definition of Accounting Estimates

Effective on January 1, 2023, the amendments clarify how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

Amendments to IAS 1 – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

Effective on January 1, 2024, the amendments clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within 12 months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability.

3. Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

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 sources of estimation uncertainty and judgments made by management in preparing the consolidated financial statements are described below.

Valuation of share-based compensation and share purchase warrants

Management determines the costs for share-based compensation and warrants using market-based valuation techniques. The fair value of the market-based and performance-based share awards are determined at the date of grant, for stock options and RSUs, using generally accepted valuation techniques. Assumptions are made and judgment is used in applying the valuation techniques. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the future volatility of the share price, expected dividend yield, future employee turnover rates and future share option and warrant exercise behaviors and corporate performance. Such judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Changes in these assumptions affect the fair value estimates of share-based compensation and share purchase warrants.

Other liabilities

The estimates, assumptions and judgements made in relation to the fair value of certain warrants and PSUs are subject to measurement uncertainty. The valuation techniques used to determine fair value require inputs that involve assumptions and judgments such as estimating the future volatility of the stock price, expected dividend yield, and expected life. Such judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain.

Reserves and resources

The Company’s business is the acquisition of royalties and streams. This amount represents the capitalized expenditures related to the acquisition of royalty and stream interests, net of accumulated depletion and accumulated impairment charges, if any. The Company estimates the reserves, resources and exploration potential relating to each agreement. Reserves are estimates of the amount of minerals that can be economically and legally extracted from the mining properties in respect of which the Company has royalty and stream agreements. Resources are estimates of the amount of minerals contained in mineralized material for which there is a reasonable prospect for economic extraction from the mining properties in respect of which the Company has royalty and stream agreements. Exploration potential represents an estimate of additional reserves and resources that may be discovered through the mine operator’s exploration program. The Company adjusts its estimates of reserves, resources (where applicable) and exploration potential (where applicable) to reflect the Company’s percentage entitlement to minerals produced from such mines. The Company compiles its estimates of its reserves and resources based on information supplied by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, density and grade of the ore body, and require complex geological and geostatistical judgments to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves and resources 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. The Company estimates exploration potential based on assumptions surrounding the ore body continuity which requires judgment as to future success of any exploration programs undertaken by the mine operator. Changes in the reserve estimates, resource estimates or exploration potential estimates may impact the carrying value of the Company’s royalty, stream and other interests and depletion charges.

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 resource conversion, foreign exchange rates, taxes, 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; and (iii) comparable transactions. 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 years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no impairment charges

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 the Company's royalty, stream and other interests are located 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.

Royalties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2022:

Limpopo

On April 27, 2022, Vox completed the acquisition of a portfolio of two royalties from a private South African registered company. The royalties include a 1.0% gross receipts royalty over the Dwaalkop Project and a 0.704% gross receipts royalty over the Messina Project, which collectively cover the majority of the Limpopo PGM Project (“Limpopo”). The upfront consideration was $1,139,628, settled by the issuance of 409,500 common shares of the Company.

The Company will make additional cash payments or issue additional common shares (at Vox’s sole election) of up to C$8,900,000 upon achievement of certain production milestones at Limpopo, including:

- C$1,500,000 upon cumulative royalty receipts from Limpopo exceeding C$500,000;

- C$400,000 upon cumulative royalty receipts from Limpopo exceeding C$1,000,000; and

- C$7,000,000 upon cumulative royalty receipts from Limpopo exceeding C$50,000,000.

As at December 31, 2022, these additional amounts have not been recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position, as the production milestones have not been achieved.

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

Wonmunna

On May 26, 2022, Vox completed the acquisition of a producing royalty over the Wonmunna iron ore mine (“Wonmunna”) from a private company. The royalty is a 1.25% to 1.50% sliding scale Gross Revenue Royalty (“GRR”), with 1.25% payable when the benchmark 62% iron ore price is below A$100/t and 1.50% GRR payable when the benchmark 62% iron ore price is above A$100/t. Notwithstanding the acquisition date of the royalty, all royalty payments due and payable to the holder of the royalty are for the benefit of Vox commencing April 1, 2022.

The total upfront consideration paid on May 26, 2022 was $15,703,991, broken down as follows:

- Cash of $4,050,000 (inclusive of a $50,000 deposit paid prior to closing);

- Issuance of 4,350,000 common shares of the Company, valued at $10,470,905; and

- Issuance of 3,600,000 common share purchase warrants of the Company. Each whole warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share at a price of C$4.50, expiring March 25, 2024. The fair value of the warrants on the issuance date was $1,183,086. The fair value of the warrants is based on the BSM option pricing model with the following assumptions: stock price C$3.09 ($2.41), expected dividend yield – 0%, expected volatility – 46%, risk-free interest rate – 2.53% and an expected life of 1.83 years;

The carrying amount of the Wonmunna royalty asset was subsequently reduced for the royalty revenues earned for the period April 1, 2022 to May 25, 2022 of $1,208,917.

At the Meeting, the holders of 2,289,667 common share purchase warrants that were originally set to expire on May 14, 2022 (“Warrants”), unanimously voted in favour to amend the Warrants to (a) remove the compulsory call option held by the Company, and (b) in conjunction with the foregoing, extend the term of the Warrants by 12 months, such that the warrants will now expire on May 14, 2023.

Performance Share Unit Plan

The Plan provides that the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, grant directors, officers, employees and consultants, non-transferable PSUs based on the value of the Company’s share price at the date of grant. The Board of Directors has the discretion to issue cash or equity settle the vested PSUs. The PSUs issued were treated as other liabilities because the number of shares to be eventually issued is based on a percentage of the common shares outstanding at the time the performance hurdle is met. The share-based compensation expense will be recorded over the vesting period, which is the date that specific share price hurdles are met.

As at December 31, 2022, the Company had temporary differences with a tax benefit of $3,847,000 (2021 - $3,693,000) which are not recognized as deferred tax assets. Management believes that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in future years to allow the benefit of the following deferred tax assets to be utilized. The following table summarizes the composition of the Company’s deferred tax assets:

	December 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
	$		$
Non-capital losses – Canada		2,889,000		2,209,000

Unrecognized deferred tax liabilities

The aggregate amount of taxable temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, for which deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized as at December 31, 2022 is $5,460,000. No deferred tax liabilities are recognized on the temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries because the Company controls the timing of reversal and it is not probable that they will reverse in the foreseeable future.

19. Financial instruments

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the financial instruments are summarized below. There have been no material changes to the risks, objectives, policies and procedures during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

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 royalty receivables in the ordinary course of business. In order to mitigate its exposure to credit risk, the Company maintains its cash in high quality financial institutions and closely monitors its royalty receivable balances. The Company’s royalty receivables are subject to the credit risk of the counterparties who own and operate the mines underlying Vox’s royalty and streaming portfolio.

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

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 and holding of cash and cash equivalents. As at December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,174,654 (December 31, 2021 - $5,064,802) and working capital of $3,795,951 (December 31, 2021 - $6,209,207).

Currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Financial instruments that impact the Company’s net income due to currency fluctuations include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income taxes payable and other liabilities denominated in Canadian and Australian dollars. Based on the Company’s Canadian and Australian denominated monetary assets and liabilities at December 31, 2022, a 10% increase (decrease) of the value of the Canadian and Australian dollar relative to the United States dollar would increase (decrease) net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) by $380,000.

Interest rate risk

The Company has cash balances with rates that fluctuate with the prevailing market rate. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in cash accounts or short-term interest-bearing securities issued by chartered banks. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks. The Company does not use any derivative instrument to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Commodity and share price risk

The Company’s royalties are subject to fluctuations from changes in market prices of the underlying commodities. The market prices of precious and base metals are the primary drivers of the Company’s profitability and ability to generate free cash flow. All of the Company’s future revenue is not hedged in order to provide shareholders with full exposure to changes in the market prices of these commodities.

The Company’s financial results may be significantly affected by a decline in the price of precious, base and/or ferrous metals. The price of precious and base metals can fluctuate widely, and is affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and income tax liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial position approximate fair value because of the limited term of these instruments.

The Company classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

- Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

- Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

- Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As at December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company does not have any financial instruments measured at fair value after initial recognition, except for investments, which are estimated using Level 1 inputs, and other liabilities, which are estimated using Level 3 inputs.

The following table provides information about financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position and categorized by level according to the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.

As at December 31, 2022:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3			Total
	$		$		$			$
Other liabilities		-		-		(601,715	)		(601,715	)

Capital management

As at December 31, 2022, the capital structure of the Company consists of $35,414,448 (December 31, 2021 - $20,709,675) of total equity, consisting of share capital, equity reserves, and deficit.
