Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(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 Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) 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 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. Basis of preparation

 

(a) Statement of compliance

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and apply the same material accounting policy information and application as disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. They do not include all of the information and disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for annual statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2024. For further information, see the Company’s annual financial statements including the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were reviewed, approved, and authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 8, 2024.

 

(b) Basis of presentation

 

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

 

(c) Principles of consolidation

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: SilverStream SEZC (Cayman Islands), which in turn owns all of the shares of Vox Royalty Australia Pty Ltd. (Australia) and Vox Royalty Canada Ltd. (Ontario, Canada); and Vox Royalty USA Ltd. (Delaware, USA).

 

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) Changes in accounting policies

 

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that were required to be adopted effective January 1, 2024. These standards did not have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

 

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.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

 

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 a significant impact on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

(e) Recent accounting pronouncements

 

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. The amendments have an effective date of later than December 31, 2024, with earlier application permitted.

 

IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

 

In April 2024, IFRS 18 was issued to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities. The standard, which replaces IAS 1, impacts the presentation of primary financial statements and notes, including the statement of earnings where companies will be required to present separate categories of income and expense for operating, investing, and financing activities with prescribed subtotals for each new category. The standard will also require management-defined performance measures to be explained and included in a separate note within the consolidated financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including interim financial statements, and requires retrospective application. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard.

 

3. Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed interim 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 unaudited condensed interim 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. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include estimates, which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impact of such estimates are pervasive throughout the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences.

 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where the assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements were the same as those applied to the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

6. Credit facility

 

Facility terms

 

On January 16, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) providing for a $15,000,000 secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The Facility includes an accordion feature which provides for an additional $10,000,000 of availability, subject to certain conditions. The Facility, secured against the assets of the Company, is available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments, subject to certain limitations. At the Company’s election, amounts drawn on the Facility bear interest at either (i) a rate determined by reference to the U.S. dollar base rate plus a margin of 1.5% to 2.5% per annum, or (ii) the secured overnight financing rate plus a margin of 2.60% to 3.60% per annum. The undrawn portion of the Facility is subject to a standby fee of 0.5625% to 0.7875% per annum, all of which is dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement with BMO dated January 16, 2024). The Facility has an initial term that matures on December 31, 2025 and is extendable one-year at a time through mutual agreement between Vox and BMO. The Facility includes covenants that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, including the Company’s leverage ratios and meet certain non-financial requirements. As a March 31, 2024, all such ratios and requirements were met.

 

As at March 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under the Facility.

 

Other assets (Facility transaction costs)

 

The Company incurred $458,416 of legal fees, included in Other Assets on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position, relating to the work performed to implement the Facility through the period ended March 31, 2024. On execution of the Facility on January 16, 2024, the Company paid BMO a one-time arrangement fee of 0.5% and a two-year upfront fee of 0.25% per annum on the total Facility amount, being $150,000 in the aggregate.

Options

 

The Company maintains an omnibus long-term incentive plan (the “Plan”) whereby certain key employees, officers, directors and consultants may be granted options to acquire common shares of the Company. The exercise price, expiry date, and vesting terms are determined by the Board of Directors. The Plan permits the issuance of options which, together with the Company’s other share compensation arrangements, may not exceed 10% of the Company’s issued common shares as at the date of grant.

Restricted Share Unit Plan

 

The Plan provides that the Board of Directors may, at its discretion, grant directors, officers, employees and consultants non-transferable RSUs 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 RSUs. The RSUs issued were treated as equity-settled instruments and measured at the grant date fair value because the Company does not have a present obligation to settle the issued RSUs in cash.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, 964,564 RSUs were granted, and vest in 25% increments on each of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2025.

 

The share-based compensation expense related to RSU grants is recorded over the vesting period.

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 derivative instruments 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.

15.Commitments and contingencies

 

The Company is, from time to time, involved in legal proceedings of a nature considered normal to its business. Other than as noted below, the Company believes that none of the litigation in which it is currently involved or have been involved with during the period ended March 31, 2024, individually or in the aggregate, is material to its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

 

Litigation matter

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company became aware that the operator of the Jaw, Phoebe, Cart and Colossus exploration projects did not renew all or substantially all of the relevant mining claims and therefore the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mining extinguished the mining concessions. As a result, the Company fully impaired the four royalties as of December 31, 2023, and the carrying value of the investment of $1,000,000 was reduced to $nil. The Company has filed a statement of claim in the Supreme Court of Western Australia, as discussed below, against the operator of the Jaw, Phoebe, Cart and Colossus exploration projects. Pursuant to the original agreement signed with the operator on July 15, 2021, if any of the four exploration projects became relinquished within three years of signing the original agreement, the operator must promptly provide Vox with a replacement royalty for each relinquished royalty and with each replacement royalty having a value of at least $250,000. To the extent Vox is granted one or more replacement royalties, the Company expects to reverse up to $1,000,000 of the 2023 impairment charge, which would increase net income by the equivalent amount. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no replacement royalties have been granted.

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 three months ended March 31, 2024, and the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

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 portfolio.

 

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 the amount available under the Company’s revolving credit facility, anticipated cash flows from operations and holding of cash and cash equivalents. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,565,229 (December 31, 2023 - $9,342,880) and working capital of $10,684,347 (December 31, 2023 - $10,378,752).

Vox Royalty Corp.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

 

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 and income taxes payable denominated in Canadian and Australian dollars. Based on the Company’s Canadian and Australian-denominated monetary assets and liabilities at March 31, 2024, a 10% increase (decrease) of the value of the Canadian and Australian dollar relative to the United States dollar would increase (decrease) net loss and other comprehensive loss by $478,000.

 

Interest rate risk

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk due to the Facility being subject to floating interest rates. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates. During the period ended March 31, 2024, a 1% increase (decrease) in nominal interest rates would have increased (decreased) net loss and other comprehensive loss by approximately $37,500.

 

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 unaudited condensed interim 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 March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company does not have any financial instruments measured at fair value after initial recognition.

 

Capital 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 royalty interests, while optimizing its capital structure by balancing debt and equity. As at March 31, 2024, the capital structure of the Company consists of $44,712,493 (December 31, 2023 - $44,923,670) of total equity, comprising of share capital, equity reserves, and deficit. The Company was not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

 

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than as disclosed for the Facility.

 

20. Subsequent events

 

On May 8, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.012 per common share payable on July 12, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 28, 2024.

Overview

 

Vox is a returns focused mining royalty company with a portfolio of over 60 royalties spanning seven jurisdictions (Australia, Canada, the United States, Brazil, Peru, Mexico, and South Africa). The Company was established in 2014 and has since built unique intellectual property, a technically focused transactional team and a global sourcing network that has allowed Vox to target the highest returns on royalty acquisitions in the mining royalty sector. Since the beginning of 2020, Vox has announced over 25 separate transactions to acquire over 60 royalties.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

Vox operates a unique business model within the royalty space, which it believes offers it a competitive advantage. Of these advantages, some are inherent to the Company’s business model, such as the diverse approach to finding global royalties providing it with a broader pipeline of opportunities to act on. Other competitive advantages have been strategically built since the Company’s formation, including its 2020 acquisition of Mineral Royalties Partnership Ltd.’s proprietary royalty database of over 8,500 royalties globally (“MRO”). MRO is not commercially available to the Company’s competitors. MRO virtually integrates global mining royalties with mineral deposits and mining claims, which provides the Company with the first-mover advantage to execute bilateral, non-brokered royalty acquisition transactions, which make up the majority of the historical acquisitions of the Company, in addition to brokered royalty acquisition opportunities available to other mining royalty companies. The Company also has an experienced technical team that consists of mining engineers and geologists who can objectively review the quality of assets and all transaction opportunities.

 

The Company focuses on accretive acquisitions. As at the date hereof, over 80% of Company’s royalty assets by royalty count are located in Australia, Canada and the United States. Further, the Company is prioritizing the acquisition of royalties on producing or near-term producing assets to complement its high-quality portfolio of exploration and development stage royalties. Specifically, the Company’s portfolio currently includes six producing assets and twenty-two development stage assets on which a mining study has been completed, or that have potential to be toll-treated via a nearby mill, or that may restart production operations after care and maintenance.

 

The Company’s common shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), both under the ticker symbol “VOXR”.

The actual timing, number and value of repurchases under the SRP will be determined by management in its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, stock price and other factors. The SRP may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Open market repurchases will only be made outside of Canada through the facilities of the Nasdaq or any alternative open market in the United States, as applicable.

 

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had not repurchased any shares under the SRP.

 

Royalty Portfolio Updates1

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company’s operating partners continued to explore, develop, and expand the projects underlying the Company’s royalty assets.

 

Key development news for the first three months of 2024 is summarized as follows by project:

 

Brauna (Operating - Brazil) – 0.5% Gross Sales Royalty

 

In February 2024, Golden Share Resources Corporation, currently undertaking a business combination transaction with Lipari Diamond Mines Ltd., provided an update on the Brauna mine, stating a transitioned focus from an open pit mine to an underground operation. The company conducted the initial blast of the mine portal below the Brauna 3 kimberlite (below the current open pit), which is expected to add four years of mine life. Lipari Diamond Mines Ltd. also recently completed a private placement to fund the commencement and development of the underground operations.

 

Otto Bore (Operating – Australia) – 2.5% NSR (applicable to production between 42koz – 100koz)

 

In January 2024, Northern Star Resources Ltd. (“Northern Star”) indicated that mining activities for the Thunderbox mill focused on Thunderbox underground, Thunderbox open pits (including Otto Bore) and another satellite deposit. Similarly, in February 2024, Northern Star continued to flag the Otto Bore deposit as a potential mill feed source for FY2024 and FY2025.

 

Bowdens (Development – Australia) – 0.85% GRR on main orebody and 1.0% GRR on regional land package

 

In March 2024, Silver Mines Limited closed an oversubscribed financing, raising A$8M, significantly higher than the originally planned raise of A$2M. In February 2024, the company announced key catalysts for the projects, including the ongoing optimisation study (on track for mid-2024), final investment decision in late 2024, with potential development starting by the end of the year.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

Ashburton (Advanced Exploration – Australia) – 1.75% NSR above 250,000oz of cumulative production

 

On February 6, 2024, Kalamazoo announced that the company entered into an exclusive 12 to 18 month option agreement (A$3M option fee, plus A$30M option exercise price) with De Grey Mining Limited (“De Grey”). Details include:

 

 

·

De Grey plans to review all historical exploration data, complete metallurgical and geotechnical drilling and testwork, and carry out open pit optimisations during the option period.

 

·

According to the De Grey RIU Conference investor presentation dated February 2024, the Ashburton project has “Potential to truck a high-grade gold concentrate to the Hemi pressure oxidation plant for processing.”

 

Cardinia (Development – Australia) – A$1/tonne production royalty on part of the Kookynie gold project

 

On February 9, 2024, Kin Mining Ltd. (“Kin Mining”) announced the completed sale of certain gold deposits to Genesis Minerals Ltd. (“Genesis Minerals”) (originally announced in 2023) for A$15M in cash and 21,917,532 shares.

 

In February, 2024, Genesis Minerals stated in a corporate presentation that Jupiter and the Bruno-Lewis open pits were a key part of their growth strategy to reach 300koz per annum, and key to the eventual re-start of the Laverton mill.

 

Further, in March 2024, Genesis provided a 5-year growth plan, stating that Laveron could potentially be restarted in late 2025, with ore from Jupiter and Bruno-Lewis as “baseload ore”, declaring a maiden reserve of 140koz Au (3.9Mt at 1.1g/t Au), with the potential to add ore from other feed sources. Additionally, Bruno-Lewis is expected to begin mining in the December quarter of 2025.2

 

Montanore (Advanced Exploration – United States of America) – $0.20/ton royalty

 

In March 2024, Hecla Mining Company stated their permitting and development strategy for the Montanore (Libby) copper and silver project, consisting of an expedited authorization for underground evaluation and data collection via existing infrastructure, with a focus on permitting additional underground evaluation work on private land within the existing exploration site.

 

Lynn Lake (MacLellan) (Feasibility – Canada) – 2% GRR (post initial capital recovery)

 

In January 2024, Alamos Gold Inc. (“Alamos”) stated that the Lynn Lake project is expected to support their expanding production profile, with construction expected to start in 2025 and first production from the project as early as the second half of 2027.

 

In February 2024, Alamos reported their 2023 Year-End Mineral Reserves and Resources, notably increasing reserves by 13% to 2.3Moz (proven and probable; 47.6 mt at 1.52g/t) at Lynn Lake, partly attributed to exploration spend of $9M over the course of 2023. The latest NI 43-101 Technical Report for the asset (issued August 2, 2023) reflects this growth in reserves and outlined a larger, longer-life, low-cost operation with significant upside potential via a number of satellite deposits in close proximity to the planned mill.3

 

South Railroad (Feasibility – United States of America) – 0.633% NSR plus advance minimum royalty payments

 

On January 16, 2024, Orla Mining Ltd. (“Orla”) announced the following:

 

 

·

Guided to a C$20M exploration and development project at South Railroad, with half allocated towards exploration, and C$8.5M expected to be spent on advancing the project permitting, engineering and administrative activities.

 

·

Drilling continued to focus on infill to support upgrading resources and testing pit extensions.

 

In March 2024, Orla provided an update on its exploration activities at the South Railroad project, providing updates from the 2023 infill and extension drilling (~2,500m). The company encountered new oxide intersections in step-out drilling at Pinion and Dark Star, while successfully confirming modeled grade, continuity of mineralization via their infill drill program.

 

Sulphur Springs (Feasibility – Australia) – A$2.00/t PR (capped at A$3.7M) and a $0.80/t PR on Kangaroo Caves (part of the combined project)

 

In March 2024, Develop Global Ltd. and Anax Metals Ltd. announced the start of a Scoping Study to evaluate the treatment of high-grade oxide/transitional ores from Sulphur Springs at the Whim Creek heap leach (a fully-permitted joint venture). These additional oxide/transitional ores sit outside of the current mine plan from the June 2023 Definitive Feasibility Study and could represent a new material revenue stream.

The company has commissioned a study to determine the economics of mining and delivering Bulgera ore to the Plutonic Gold plant.

 

Millrose - (Advanced Exploration) – 1% GRR

 

In February 2024, Northern Star completed the acquisition of the Millrose project from Strickland Metals Ltd for A$61 million.

 

Green Dam - (Advanced Exploration) – 2% NSR

 

In January 2024, St Barbara Limited announced that a reverse circulation drilled program at the Pinjin JV had been completed in late 2023, comprised of 13 holes for ~2,300m. Assay results are expected in 2024.

 

Beschefer - (Exploration) – 0.6% NSR

 

In February 2024, Abitibi Metals Corp. provided an outlook for 2024 and stated that approximately 3,000m of drilling were planned for the Beschefer Gold Project in Q1 2024. Abitibi Metals further stated that they are positioned to complete the option agreement and earn 100% of the project in 2024.

 

Outlook5

 

For 2024, Vox estimates royalty revenue to total $11 million to $13 million, unchanged from the guidance announced on March 7, 2024.

 

Our 2024 outlook on royalty revenue is based on publicly available information of the owners or operators of projects on which we have a royalty interest and which we believe to be reliable. When publicly available forecasts on properties are not available, we obtain internal forecasts from the owners or operators, if available, or use our own best estimate. Achievement of the 2024 royalty revenue guidance above is subject to risks and uncertainties, including changes in commodity prices and the ability of operators to attain the results set out in their forecasts. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance that the actual royalty revenues for 2024 will be in the range set forth above. In addition, we may or may not revise our guidance during the year to reflect more current information. If we are unable to achieve our anticipated guidance, or if we revise our guidance, our future results of operations may be adversely affected, and our share price may decline.

 

Additional Opportunities

 

Although the Company is primarily focused on building its portfolio of royalties, Vox management believes that there may be opportunities to maximize the value of its assets through (i) the sale, assignment or transfer of certain royalties, or the right to acquire certain royalties, to third parties, (ii) the licensing of certain intellectual property, such as non-core mineral royalty data contained in the Company’s MRO database, (iii) the acquisition of equity interests in special purpose vehicles or other entities which hold a mining royalty or mining royalties, or (iii) other strategic opportunities, with or without third party involvement. Vox is committed to maximizing per share shareholder value and will consider creative opportunities to achieve this commitment as the royalty sector evolves.

 

Asset Portfolio

 

As of the date of this MD&A, Vox owns 67 royalty assets spanning seven jurisdictions, including 46 royalty assets in Australia and 13 in North America.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

 

Operating results herein are discussed primarily with respect to the comparable quarter in the prior year. The “quarter” or “Q1 2024” refers to the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and the “comparable quarter” or “Q1 2023” refers to the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

 

Revenue

 

Revenue for Q1 2024 was $2,882,512 compared to revenue of $3,580,855 in the comparable quarter. Q1 2024 revenue decline was largely driven by:

 

 

·

The Segilola gold royalty reaching its $3.5 million revenue cap in Q2 2023, resulting in $nil revenue generated in the current quarter.

 

·

Consistent royalty revenue earned from Wonmunna iron ore royalty quarter over quarter.

 

·

Continued ramp up of production at the Janet Ivy gold project in Western Australia, after recent completion of the Binduli North heap leach expansion project in early 2023.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the quarter were $1,803,625, down from $2,021,879 in the comparable quarter. The decrease in expenditures was primarily related to the following:

 

 

·

Reduction in professional fees expenditures during the period of $117,378.

 

·

Reduction in salaries and director fees of $25,411.

 

·

Decrease in corporate administration expenditures of $48,322.

 

·

Decrease in share-based compensation expense of $25,553.

 

Other Expenses

 

Other expenses for the quarter were $109,799 vs. $841,155 in the comparable quarter. The decrease in expense was primarily related to the following:

 

 

·

Increase in interest income earned during the quarter of $68,019, which is a result of holding more cash on hand during the period vs. the comparable period.

 

·

Increase in foreign exchange expense during the quarter of $93,882 over the comparable quarter.

 

·

Facility expenditure of $73,705 in Q1 2024 vs. $nil in the comparable quarter. The amount of expense during the quarter comprised (i) interest expense of $24,938, and (ii) amortization expense for the initial fees to set up the Facility of $48,767.

 

·

Expense related to the fair value change in warrants of $830,924 during Q1 2023 vs. no expense charge in the current quarter. The expense during the comparable quarter was primarily a result of the increase in the Company’s share price at the end of the quarter compared to the beginning of the quarter vs. the warrants expiring on March 25, 2024 with a carrying value of $nil.

 

Income Tax Expense

 

During the quarter, the Company recorded:

 

 

·

Current income tax expense of $591,151 vs. $178,977 in the comparable quarter.

 

·

Deferred income tax expense of $150,951 vs. $604,085 in Q1 2023.

 

The total income tax expense was consistent in both periods. The shift in expense recognized as current tax vs. deferred tax in Q1 2024 is a result of a reduction in taxable temporary differences during the current quarter.

 

Net Income

 

The net loss for Q1 2024 was $241,387 vs. $681,239 in the comparable quarter. On a per share basis, the basic and diluted loss per share was $0.00 per share for the current quarter vs. $0.02 per share in the comparable quarter. The net loss for each of the periods is from the results of operations discussed above.

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Other Quarters Presented

 

Revenue

 

In December 2021, gold royalty revenue commenced from the Segilola gold royalty asset, and in May 2022, iron ore royalty revenue commenced from the Wonmunna iron ore royalty asset. On a relative basis, the Wonmunna royalty has performed consistently since it was acquired in May 2022. In Q2 2023, the Company’s Segilola royalty reached its $3.5 million revenue cap, while the Janet Ivy gold heap leach project in Western Australia, which achieved first production in Q3 2022, has continued ramping up production. Lastly, in Q3 2023, Vox recognized inaugural revenue from the Kookynie gold royalty, triggered by a maiden mineral reserves discovery payment linked to the Puzzle Group gold deposits.

 

Operating Expenses

 

A key factor behind the increase in operating expenses in 2022 is the Company’s Nasdaq listing. In 2022, the Company incurred Nasdaq listing costs of $358,314. Vox commenced trading on the Nasdaq on October 10, 2022. In 2023, key drivers behind the increase in operating expenses include annual share-based compensation to management and directors in the form of RSU grants on June 5, 2023, fees related to the Company’s TSX graduation of $143,767, and impairment charges of $1,500,000 related to the Alce, Phoebe, Jaw, Cart and Colossus royalties, offset with an impairment reversal on the British King gold royalty during the period of $250,000, as discussed under the Asset Portfolio section.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s working capital and liquidity position as at March 31, 2024 comprised current assets of $13,179,119, including cash and cash equivalents of $9,565,229. Set against current liabilities of $2,494,772, the Company has net working capital of $10,684,347. This compares to current assets of 13,282,702 and net working capital of $10,378,752 as at December 31, 2023. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had $15,000,000 available under its Facility.

 

The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements other than as disclosed for the Facility.

 

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

 

Cash flows earned from operations in Q1 2024 were $1,212,154 vs. $500,017 in Q1 2023. The increase in cash flows from operations during the period is primarily a result of:

 

 

·

A decrease in income from operating activities prior to non-cash working capital changes of $942,289, which is primarily related to the Segilola gold royalty reaching its $3.5 million revenue cap in Q2 2023, resulting in $nil revenue generated in the current quarter.

 

·

Consistent accounts receivable amounts at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 vs. an increase in accounts receivable in the comparative period of $1,584,048.

 

·

A reduction in prepaid expenses during the current quarter of $92,974 vs. an increase in Q1 2023 of $26,619.

 

·

A reduction in current liabilities during Q1 2024 of $275,335 vs. an immaterial increase of $6,338 in Q1 2023.

 

Cash Flows Used In Investing Activities

 

Cash flows from investing activities in Q1 2024 were $3,113 vs. use of $52,745 in the comparable quarter. There was no significant investing activities in both periods.

 

Cash Flows Used In Financing Activities

 

Cash flows used in financing activities for Q1 2024 were $983,659 vs. $447,583 in the comparable period. In the current quarter, cash used was for (i) dividends paid to shareholders of $549,836, and (ii) transaction costs to set up the Facility of $433,823 vs. dividends paid to shareholders in Q1 2023 of $447,583.

 

With respect to the interim investment of excess working capital, the Company holds only cash, and it does not hold debt instruments issued by third parties, nor does it hold any equities or other temporary investments of any kind on an interim basis.

 

The Company’s management believes current financial resources will be adequate to cover anticipated expenditures for general and administration and project evaluation costs and anticipated minimal capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. Vox’s long-term capital requirements are primarily affected by ongoing activities related to the acquisition or creation of royalties. 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, Vox may seek additional debt, including use of the Facility or the accordion feature connected thereto, as detailed in the “Highlights and Key Accomplishments” section of this MD&A, or equity financing, as necessary.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not utilize off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

As at March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any right-of-use assets or lease liabilities.

 

Litigation matters

 

The Company is, from time to time, involved in legal proceedings of a nature considered normal to its business. Other than as noted below, the Company believes that none of the litigation in which it is currently involved or have been involved with during the period ended March 31, 2024, individually or in the aggregate, is material to its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company became aware that the operator of the Jaw, Phoebe, Cart and Colossus exploration projects did not renew all or substantially all of the relevant mining claims and therefore the Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Mining extinguished the mining concessions. As a result, the Company fully impaired the four royalties as of December 31, 2023, and the carrying value of the investment of $1,000,000 was reduced to $nil. The Company has filed a statement of claim in the Supreme Court of Western Australia, as discussed below, against the operator of the Jaw, Phoebe, Cart and Colossus exploration projects. Pursuant to the original agreement signed with the operator on July 15, 2021, if any of the four exploration projects became relinquished within three years of signing the original agreement, the operator must promptly provide Vox with a replacement royalty for each relinquished royalty and with each replacement royalty having a value of at least $250,000. To the extent Vox is granted one or more replacement royalties, the Company expects to reverse up to $1,000,000 of the 2023 impairment charge, which would increase net income by the equivalent amount. As of the date of this MD&A, no replacement royalties have been granted.

SilverStream filed a writ and statement of claim in the Supreme Court of Western Australia against Titan Minerals Limited (“Titan”) on February 23, 2024, along with an amended writ and statement of claim on March 28, 2024, in respect of the Titan assets. SilverStream is seeking to enforce its rights to be issued replacement royalties and/or damages in respect of Titan’s failure to maintain certain mining concessions in Peru in accordance with various royalty deeds entered into between Titan and SilverStream in 2021. As of the date of this MD&A, the proceeding is ongoing.

Changes in Accounting Policies

 

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that were required to be adopted effective January 1, 2024. These standards did not have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

 

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 a significant impact on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. The amendments have an effective date of later than December 31, 2024, with earlier application permitted.

 

IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

 

In April 2024, IFRS 18 was issued to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities. The standard, which replaces IAS 1, impacts the presentation of primary financial statements and notes, including the statement of earnings where companies will be required to present separate categories of income and expense for operating, investing, and financing activities with prescribed subtotals for each new category. The standard will also require management-defined performance measures to be explained and included in a separate note within the consolidated financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including interim financial statements, and requires retrospective application. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard.

 

Outstanding Share Data

 

The authorized share capital of the Company is an unlimited number of common shares without par value.

Critical Accounting Judgements and Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim 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 unaudited condensed interim 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 unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company’s material accounting policy information and estimates are disclosed in Notes 2 and 3 of the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to the policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

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 three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

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 portfolio.

 

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 the amount available under the Company’s revolving credit facility, anticipated cash flows from operations and holding of cash and cash equivalents. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,565,229 (December 31, 2023 - $9,342,880) and working capital of $10,684,347 (December 31, 2023 - $10,378,752).

 

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 (loss) due to currency fluctuations include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and income taxes payable denominated in Canadian and Australian dollars. Based on the Company’s Canadian and Australian denominated monetary assets and liabilities at March 31, 2024, 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) by $478,000.

 

Interest rate risk

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk due to the Facility being subject to floating interest rates. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates. During the period ended March 31, 2024, a 1% increase (decrease) in nominal interest rates would have increased (decreased) net loss and other comprehensive loss by approximately $37,500.

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.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

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. None of the Company’s future revenue is 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 receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and income tax liabilities on the unaudited condensed interim 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 March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company does not have any financial instruments measured at fair value after initial recognition.

 

Level 3 Hierarchy

 

The following table presents the changes in fair value measurements of financial instruments classified as Level 3 as at December 31, 2023. These financial instruments were measured at fair value utilizing non-observable market inputs. The gains and losses are recognized in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of income (loss). On March 25, 2024, the warrants, which were classified as Level 3, expired, unexercised.

Capital 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, while optimizing its capital structure by balancing debt and equity. As at March 31, 2024, the capital structure of the Company consists of $44,712,493 (December 31, 2023 - $44,923,670) of total equity, consisting of share capital, equity reserves, and deficit.

 

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than as disclosed for the Facility.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) of the Company are responsible for establishing and maintaining the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (“DCP”) including adherence to the Disclosure Policy adopted by the Company. The Disclosure Policy requires all staff to keep senior management fully apprised of all material information affecting the Company so that they may evaluate and discuss this information and determine the appropriateness and timing for public disclosure.

 

The Company maintains DCP designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under applicable Canadian securities laws and the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the appropriate time periods and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Vox Royalty Corp.

Management Discussion & Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2024

 

As required by applicable Canadian securities laws and Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s DCP as of December 31, 2023. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s DCP were effective as of December 31, 2023.

 

In designing and evaluating DCP, the Company recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and management is required to exercise its judgement in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

The CEO and CFO have evaluated whether there were changes to the DCP during the three months ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the DCP. No such changes were identified through their evaluation.

 

Internal Control 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.

 

There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Limitations of Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls 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 control. The design of any systems 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 Information

 

Certain statements contained in this MD&A may be deemed “forward looking information” or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws. All statements in this MD&A, other than statements of historical fact, that address future events, developments or performance that Vox expects to occur including management’s expectations regarding Vox’s growth, results of operations, estimated future revenue, carrying value of assets, requirements for additional capital, mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates, production estimates, production costs and revenue estimates, future demand for and prices of commodities, business prospects and opportunities and outlook on commodities and currency markets are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the words “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “intends”, “estimates”, “projects”, “potential”, “scheduled” and similar expressions or variations (including negative variations), or that events or conditions “will”, “would”, “may”, “could” or “should” occur including, without limitation, the performance of the assets of Vox, the realization of the anticipated benefits deriving from Vox’s investments and transactions, the expected developments at the assets underlying Vox’s royalties and Vox’s ability to seize future opportunities. Although Vox believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of Vox, and are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may accordingly differ materially from those in forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include, without limitation: the impact of general business and economic conditions; the absence of control over mining operations from which Vox will purchase precious metals or from which it will receive 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 to the Company’s dividend policy; epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the global outbreak of the novel coronavirus, geopolitical events and other uncertainties, such as the conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, and as well as those risk factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Vox’s AIF dated March 7, 2024 available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are based upon assumptions management believes to be reasonable, including, without limitation: the ongoing operation of the properties in which Vox holds a royalty by the owners or operators of such properties in a manner consistent with past practice; the accuracy of public statements and disclosures made by the owners or operators of such underlying properties; no material adverse change in the market price of the commodities that underlie the asset portfolio; no adverse development in respect of any significant property in which Vox holds a royalty; the accuracy of publicly disclosed expectations for the development of underlying properties that are not yet in production; integration of acquired assets; and the absence of any other factors that could cause actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated, estimated or intended. Vox cautions that the foregoing list of risk and uncertainties is not exhaustive. Investors and others should carefully consider the above factors as well as the uncertainties they represent and the risk they entail. Vox believes that the assumptions reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this MD&A should not be unduly relied upon. This MD&A contains future-orientated information and financial outlook information (collectively, “FOFI”) about the Company’s revenue from royalties which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications set forth in the above paragraphs. FOFI contained in this MD&A was made as of the date of this MD&A and was provided for the purpose of providing further information about the Company’s anticipated business operations. Vox disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any FOFI contained in this MD&A, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required pursuant to applicable law. FOFI contained in this MD&A should not be used for the purposes other than for which it is disclosed herein.

 

Third-Party Market and Technical Information

 

This MD&A includes market information, industry data and forecasts obtained from independent industry publications, market research and analyst reports, surveys and other publicly available sources. Although the Company believes these sources to be generally reliable, market and industry data is subject to interpretation and cannot be verified with complete certainty due to limits on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties inherent in any statistical survey. Accordingly, the accuracy and completeness of this data is not guaranteed. Actual outcomes may vary materially from those forecast in such reports, surveys or publications, and the prospect for material variation can be expected to increase as the length of the forecast period increases. The Company has not independently verified any of the data from third party sources referred to herein nor ascertained the underlying assumptions relied on by such sources.

AND DECLARES QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

 

TORONTO, CANADA – May 8, 2024 – Vox Royalty Corp.

Kyle Floyd, Chief Executive Officer, stated: “I’m pleased to share these quarterly financial results, in line with 2024 annual revenue guidance, which notably include over 140% growth in cash flows generated from operations. After tremendous revenue and profitability growth in 2022 and 2023, we find ourselves on the cusp of the next phase of Vox’s organic growth in producing assets and associated royalty revenue, with numerous assets advancing towards a development decision. We are also actively advancing a pipeline of opportunities that is consistent with our historical acquisition profile. Moreover, we expect Vox’s operating leverage to continue expanding in conjunction with our per share returns-focused strategy which was further discussed in our recent 2024 Investor Letter.”
