Royalty applies to only a portion of the property.

Val d'Or Mining Royalties and Strategic Alliance

On December 1, 2022, through our subsidiaries, the Company entered into an agreement (the “VZZ Agreement”) with Val-d'Or Mining Corporation (“VZZ”), whereby, among other things, the Company’s subsidiary Golden Valley Mines and Royalties Ltd. (“Golden Valley”) would transfer to VZZ interests in 12 prospective properties held by it with a carrying value of $322 in exchange for royalties thereon. The subject properties are located in Québec and Ontario. The transactions under the VZZ Agreement were completed on January 30, 2023 pursuant to which Golden Valley:

•

divested certain mineral rights and other interests to VZZ and retained a 0.5% to 1.0% NSR royalty on the following properties located in Québec and Ontario: Bogside, Bogside NW, Cheechoo B East, Island 27, Matachewan, Munro, North Contact, Recession Larder, Riverside, Sharks, Smokehead and Titanic;

•

assigned to VZZ certain mineral rights and interests under an option agreement with Eldorado Gold (Québec) Inc. and retained a 1.5% NSR royalty on the Claw Lake, Cook Lake and Murdoch Creek properties in Ontario and the Perestroika Prospect in Québec; and

•

retained a right of first refusal on any royalty or similar interest that VZZ intends to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of. Such right of first refusal is subject to our and our affiliates holding at least 10% of the outstanding common shares of VZZ. As of the date of this Transition Report, we own 35% of the outstanding common shares of VZZ.

The 12 prospective properties with carrying value of $322 were derecognized as assets, and the NSR royalty assets retained were recognized at $322. Transaction cost amounting to $56 was capitalized in addition to the carrying value.

Jerritt Canyon

On March 20, 2023, First Majestic Silver Corp. (“First Majestic”) announced it is temporarily suspending all mining activities and reducing its workforce at Jerritt Canyon effective immediately. During the suspension, First Majestic announced the intention to process aboveground stockpiles through the plant and continue exploration activities throughout 2023. The Company considered the temporary suspension of mining activities to be an indicator of impairment and conducted an impairment analysis as of June 30, 2023 to estimate the recoverable amount of its royalty assets. The recoverable amount was estimated using a discounted cash flow model and the following assumptions: consensus average gold prices of $1,726 over the longer term, resumption of production at the mine in 2026 and a post-tax real discount rate of 5%. As at June 30, 2023, the carrying value of the Jerritt Canyon mine royalties totaled $8,268 resulting in no impairment charge.

Rawhide

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, mining operations at the Rawhide mine were suspended due to working capital constraints. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $3,821 on the Rawhide royalty.

Each unit comprised of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable for the purchase of one common share of VZZ at a per share price of C$0.20 until March 18, 2024. As at June 30, 2023, the Company has a 35.09% equity interest in VZZ.

The Facility, secured against certain assets of the Company, is available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments subject to certain limitations. Amounts drawn on the Facility bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the U.S. dollar Base Rate plus a margin of 3.00% per annum or Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin of 4.00% per annum, as applicable, and the undrawn portion is subject to a standby fee of 0.90% per annum. The Adjusted Term SOFR shall mean on any day the Term SOFR Reference Rate as published by the Term SOFR Administrator for the tenor comparable to the applicable interest period, plus certain credit spread adjustments.

On September 14, 2022, the Company and Bank of Montreal agreed to extend the maturity date of the Facility from March 31, 2023 to March 31, 2025. The exercise of the Accordion is subject to certain additional conditions and the satisfaction of financial covenants.

On February 17, 2023, the Company settled the principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest of the previous loan with proceeds from the amended and restated credit agreement. The Facility has a maturity date of March 31, 2025.

9. Issued capital (continued)

9.3 Reserves (continued)

The fair value of the 5,000 share options granted during six months ended June 30, 2023 was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate	4.55%
Expected life (years)	1.37
Expected volatility	41.83%
Expected dividend yield	1.72%
Estimated forfeiture rate	13.33%

As there is insufficient trading history of the Company's common shares prior to the date of grant, the expected volatility is based on the historical share price volatility of a group of comparable companies in the sector in which the Company operates over a period similar to the expected life of the share options.

A summary of share options outstanding and exercisable as at June 30, 2023, are as follows:

	Options Outstanding			Options Exercisable
Exercise Price ($)	Number of Options Outstanding	Weighted Average Exercise Price ($)	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (years)	Number of Options exercisable	Weighted Average Exercise Price ($)	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (years)

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing fair value of financial instruments:

•

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs have a significant effect on the recorded fair value which are observable, either directly or indirectly.

•

Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

11. Financial instruments (continued)

The Company’s short and long-term investments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently revalued to their fair market value at each period end based on inputs such as equity prices. The Company’s short-term investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of short-term investments is based on the quoted market price of the short-term investments. The fair value of the long-term investment is classified as Level 3 and measured based on data such as the price paid by arm’s length parties in a recent transaction. The fair value of the derivative liabilities related to Ely Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The fair value of derivative warrants to purchase shares in Monarch Mining Corporation and VZZ were initially determined on a residual value basis and subsequently measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The significant inputs used are readily available in public markets and therefore have been classified as Level 2. Inputs used in the Black-Scholes model for derivative liabilities include risk-free interest rate, volatility, and dividend yield. The fair value of the derivative liabilities related to the put and call option contracts is based on the quoted market price of these contracts.

The fair value of the Company's other financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short term to maturity. Bank loan and lease obligation are measured at amortized cost. The fair value of the bank loan and lease obligation approximate their carrying values as their interest rates are comparable to current market rates.

The financial risk arising from the Company's operations are credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, equity price risk and interest rate risk. These risks arise from the normal course of operations and all transactions undertaken are to support the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The risks associated with financial instruments and the policies on how the Company mitigates these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented in a timely and effective manner.

11.1 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The financial risk arising from the Company’s operations are credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, equity price risk and interest rate risk. These risks arise from the normal course of operations and all transactions undertaken are to support the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The risks associated with financial instruments and the policies on how the Company mitigates these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented in a timely and effective manner.

11.2 Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third-party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk for the Company is primarily associated with the Company's bank balances and accounts receivable. The Company mitigates credit risk associated with its bank balances by holding cash with Schedule I chartered banks in Canada and their US affiliates. The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is equivalent to the carrying value of its cash and cash equivalents in excess of the amount of government deposit insurance coverage for each financial institution and accounts receivable. In order to mitigate its exposure to credit risk, the Company closely monitors its financial assets.

11.3 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or manage its obligations associated with financial liabilities. To manage liquidity risk, the Company closely monitors its liquidity position and ensures it has adequate sources of funding to finance its projects and operations. The Company’s working capital (current assets less current liabilities) as at June 30, 2023 was $4,079 compared to $7,559 as at December 31, 2022. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities are expected to be realized or settled, respectively, within a one-year period.

The Company's future profitability will be dependent on the royalty income to be received from mine operators. Royalties are based on a percentage of the minerals or the products produced, or revenue or profits generated from the property which is typically dependent on the prices of the minerals the property operators are able to realize. Mineral prices are affected by numerous factors such as interest rates, exchange rates, inflation or deflation and global and regional supply and demand. In managing liquidity risk, the Company takes into account the amount available under the ATM Program, Facility including the accordion, anticipated cash flows from operating activities and its holding of cash and short-term investments. The Company believes it has the required liquidity to meet its obligations and to finance its planned activities.

11.4 Currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk when it undertakes transactions and holds assets and liabilities in currencies other than its functional currency. The Company currently does not engage in foreign exchange currency hedging. The currency risk on its cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and derivative liabilities are minimal.

11.5 Equity price risk

The Company is exposed to equity price risk associated with its investment in other mining companies. The Company’s short-term investments consisting of common shares are exposed to significant equity price risk due to the potentially volatile and speculative nature of the businesses in which the investments are held. Based on the Company’s short-term investments held as at June 30, 2023, a 10% change in the market price of these investments would have an impact of approximately $86 on net loss.

11. Financial instruments (continued)

11.6 Interest rate risk

The Company's exposure to interest rate risk arises from the impact of interest rates on its cash and secured revolving credit facility, which bear interest at fixed or variable rates. The interest rate risks on the Company's cash balances are minimal. The Company's secured revolving credit facility bears interest at a rate determined by reference to the U.S. dollar Base Rate plus a margin of 3.00% or Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin of 4.00%, as applicable and an increase (decrease) of 10 basis point in the applicable rate of interest would not have a significant impact on the net loss for six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company's lease liability is determined using the interest rate implicit in the lease and an increase (decrease) of 10 basis point would not have a significant impact on the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
