Osisko Provides Update on Deliveries Received for the Third Quarter of 2020

MONTREAL, Oct. 20, 2020 - Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd. (the “Corporation” or “Osisko”) (OR: TSX & NYSE) is pleased to announce that it has received approximately 16,700 attributable gold equivalent ounces¹ (“GEOs”) and recorded preliminary revenues² of C$55.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020. Preliminary cost of sales, excluding depletion², was C$15.2 million resulting in a cash operating margin³ of approximately C$40.5 million. Excluding offtakes, Osisko’s cash operating margin on royalties and streams³ reached a record of 96.4% during the third quarter of 2020.

Sandeep Singh, President of Osisko commented: “Our Q3 results demonstrate again the strength and quality of our portfolio of assets. We anticipate a continued upward trend in GEO deliveries in the fourth quarter as some of our royalty and streaming assets have a lag between an operator’s production and delivery to us. As such, the third quarter had remnant impacts of certain operators producing less ounces in their Q2 period. That effect is now behind us and, with the strong third quarter, we are in excellent position to meet our forecast for the second half of 2020.”

Notes:

Osisko has included certain performance measures in this press release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) including (i) attributable gold equivalent ounces and (ii) cash operating margin. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. As Osisko’s operations are primarily focused on precious metals, the Corporation presents attributable GEOs and cash operating margins as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Corporation’s performance in comparison to other mining companies in the precious metals mining industry who present results on a similar basis. However, other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently. Note that these figures have not been audited and are subject to change.

1. GEOs are calculated on a quarterly basis and include royalties, streams and offtakes. Silver earned from royalty and stream agreements are converted to gold equivalent ounces by multiplying the silver ounces by the average silver price for the period and dividing by the average gold price for the period. Diamonds, other metals and cash royalties are converted into gold equivalent ounces by dividing the associated revenue by the average gold price for the period. Offtake agreements are converted using the financial settlement equivalent divided by the average gold price for the period.
   
   
2. These figures have not been audited and are subject to change. As the Corporation has not yet finished its quarter-end close procedures, the anticipated financial information presented in this press release is preliminary, subject to final quarter-end closing adjustments, and may change materially.
   
   
3. Cash operating margin (in dollars) represents revenues less cost of sales, excluding depletion (C$55.7 million - C$15.2 million = C$40.5 million). Cash operating margin on revenues and streams (in percentage) represents the cash operating margin earned from revenues and streams (in dollars) divided by revenues earned from royalties and streams ([C$41.2 million – C$1.5 million] / C$41.2 million = 96.4%).
