Forward Guidance

Franco-Nevada expects continued strong performance in 2025 with expanded contributions from recently acquired and ramping-up mining assets.

Positive Outlook

  • New contributions expected from Porcupine Complex and Western Limb Mining Operations

  • Ongoing development at Valentine Gold and Canadian Malartic enhances optionality
  • ESG commitments and community investments continue to drive stakeholder engagement
  • Debt-free balance sheet supports future acquisitions and dividends

Challenges Ahead

  • Cobre Panama remains halted under Preservation and Safe Management

  • Still volatility in gas and oil prices could affect diversified segment earnings
  • Potential delays in permitting or construction at new projects
