Record Q1 revenue confirms growth trajectory, but outlook stays on‑track

Executive Summary
- Preliminary Q1 2026 results show a record $102.8 M revenue and $99.5 M cash margin (96.8% of revenue).
- GEO earnings for the quarter were 22,740 oz, up from 20,326 oz in Q4 2025.
- Cash on hand after a $12.9 M share repurchase sits at ~ $94.9 M.
- The company closed its Namdini 1.0% NSR royalty and completed the Cascabel 50% stream buy‑back, receiving an estimated $17.5 M value on delivery.

- The revolving credit facility remains undrawn ($650 M committed, plus a $200 M accordion).
Material Impact
| Aspect | Assessment |
|---|---|
| Revenue & cash margin | Record figures but fully consistent with the strong 2025 performance and guidance; reinforces existing expectations rather than exceeding them. |
| Cash position | Improves liquidity, giving extra runway for upcoming acquisitions; however, the balance remains modest relative to the $650 M facility size. |
| Share repurchase | Normal‑course issuer bid (NCIB) activity is routine capital return and signals confidence but does not materially alter valuation. |
| Royalty/stream transactions | The Cascabel buy‑back adds immediate cash inflow; the Namdini NSR closure simply finalises a previously announced deal – both are expected steps. |
| Pending acquisitions | Expected to close in Q2 2026 as previously disclosed; no surprise element, but they will broaden future GEO delivery profile. |
| Overall | The news confirms that OR Royalties is executing its 2025‑2026 growth plan on schedule. No new catalyst or risk shift appears; impact is positive but routine. |
