Altius Minerals Corp. Reports Quarterly Attributable Revenue of $9,964,000 and Adjusted EBITDA of $6,786,000; Declares Quarterly Dividend

14.12.2016  |  Marketwired
ST. JOHN'S, Dec. 14, 2016 - Altius Minerals Corp. ("Altius" or the "Corporation") (TSX:ALS) reports attributable revenue(1) for the three months ended October 31, 2016 of $9,964,000 or $0.23 per share and adjusted EBITDA(2) of $6,786,000 or $0.16 per share compared to attributable revenue of $8,534,000 or $0.22 per share and adjusted EBITDA of $6,475,000 or $0.16 per share for the prior year comparable period. Year to date, the Corporation has attributable revenue of $18,374,000 (2015 - $18,319,000), adjusted EBITDA of $13,189,000 (2015 - $12,569,000) and net earnings of $3,390,000 (2015 - net loss of $1,692,000).

Revenue increased over the previous year with the addition of the Chapada copper stream which was acquired in May 2016 and higher realized prices on the Corporation's metallurgical coal royalty. These revenue increases were partially offset by lower thermal coal volumes caused by mine sequencing, a lack of payment on the Voisey's Bay royalty, and lower realized potash prices.

The Corporation also reports that during the first half of the year it has repaid $4,000,000 of its term debt as per its repayment schedule and a further $14,274,000 in voluntary payments have been made on its revolving debt facility using a combination of Royalty business based cash flow and proceeds from the sale of equity investments related to its Project Generation business.

A summary of the financial results is included in the following table.

Non-IFRS Measures

Attributable revenue and adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. For a reconciliation of these measures to various IFRS measures, please see below. 

(1) Attributable revenue is defined by the Corporation as total revenue from the consolidated financial statements and the Corporation's proportionate share of gross revenue in the joint ventures. The Corporation's key decision makers use attributable royalty revenue and related attributable royalty expenses as a basis to evaluate the business performance. The attributable royalty revenue amounts, together with as amortization of royalty interests, general and administrative costs and mining tax, are not reported gross in the consolidated statement of earnings (loss) since the royalty revenues are being generated in a joint venture and IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements requires net reporting as an equity pick up. The reconciliation to IFRS reports the elimination of the attributable revenues and reconciles to the revenues recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings (loss). 

(2) Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Corporation as net earnings (loss) before taxes, amortization, interest, non-recurring items, non-cash amounts such as impairments, losses and gains, and share based compensation. The Corporation also adjusts earnings in joint ventures to reflect EBITDA on those assets which exclude amortization of royalty interests as well as adjusting for any one time items. Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the performance of our business, especially for demonstrating the impact that EBITDA in joint ventures have on the overall business. Adjusted EBITDA identifies the cash generated in a given period that will be available to fund the Corporation's future operations, growth opportunities, shareholder dividends and to service debt obligations.
