(#) Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp. dividends received

Base and battery metals (primarily copper) revenue of $18.3 million for the year compares to $28.5 million reported for 2022 due primarily to the scheduled closure of the 777 mine in Q2 of 2022 and a Q4 lag between mine production and copper stream deliveries from Chapada. At Voisey's Bay nickel production continued to be impacted by the transitioning to underground mining from prior open pit based production. The Corporation recognized its first lithium royalty revenue during the second half of the year from the ramp up of the Groto do Cirilo mine.

The Corporation's preliminary cost of sales on the Chapada copper stream, excluding any depletion for the quarter, is $5.1 million compared to $5.6 million in the prior year.

Potash portfolio revenue during the year was $24.0 million, which compares to $41.4 million in 2022, reflecting significantly lower average realized prices versus prior year record levels, which were impacted by heightened supply uncertainty relating to major production areas in Russia and Belarus.

Iron ore royalty revenue in the form of dividends from Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp., which serves as a pass-through vehicle for royalty income and equity dividends related to the operations of Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC), was $9.5 million, as compared with $10.7 million in 2022 due to lower production relating to wildfires, plant maintenance issues and the timing of sales relative to production.

Renewable energy royalty revenue continued to ramp up during 2023 to $7.1 million as compared to $4.8 million in 2022, due to the contribution of newly acquired production stage royalties and the commissioning of new development projects during the year. Portfolio projects representing more than 1 GW of generating capacity are currently under construction.

Thermal (electrical) coal royalty revenue of $8.9 million compared to $15.2 million last year reflecting lower attributable production volumes at the Genesee Mine as the adjacent Genesee power plant nears completion of its conversion to natural gas burning.

Non GAAP Financial Measures

  1. Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: attributable revenue, attributable royalty revenue, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA), adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted net earnings (loss). Management uses these measures to monitor the financial performance of the Corporation and its operating segments and believes these measures enable investors and analysts to compare the Corporation's financial performance with its competitors and/or evaluate the results of its underlying business. These measures are intended to provide additional information, not to replace International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) measures, and do not have a standard definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. As these measures do not have a standardized meaning, they may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. Further information on the composition and usefulness of each non-GAAP financial measure, including reconciliation to their most directly comparable IFRS measures, is included in the non-GAAP financial measures section of our MD&A.
