ROYAL GOLD INC

Royal Gold, Inc. acquires and manages precious metal streams, royalties, and similar interests. The company does not conduct mining operations or contribute to operating costs; instead, it provides financing to mining projects in exchange for the right to purchase metals or receive revenue shares. Its business operates through two segments: stream interests, which provide rights to purchase mine production at predetermined prices, and royalty interests, which confer non-operating entitlements to a percentage of production or revenue. The company primarily targets precious metals such as gold and silver, while also holding interests in base metals like copper, serving the mining industry by providing capital to mine operators across exploration, development, and production stages.

The company holds interests in mining properties across North America, South and Central America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and the Australia Pacific region, including operations in countries such as the United States, Canada, Chile, the Dominican Republic, Zambia, and Ecuador. Its portfolio encompasses 81 production-stage properties, 29 development-stage properties, and 254 exploration-stage assets. Royal Gold employs 39 people and maintains offices in Denver, Colorado; Lucerne, Switzerland; and Vancouver and Toronto, Canada.
