Business Strategy

Royal Gold is well positioned to continue its growth through the acquisition of existing royalties, and the creation of new royalties through project financing and strategic exploration alliances. The key elements of our business strategy are to:

  1. Provide lower-risk exposure to gold through royalty ownership. Royal Gold’s business model is based on acquiring royalty interests in precious metals properties rather than engaging in costly and more complex mining operations.

  2. Maintain financial flexibility to compete for royalty acquisitions. Royal Gold’s position of liquidity allows us to compete for royalty acquisitions by means of a purchase, by providing financing, or by entering into a strategic exploration alliance in exchange for a royalty.

  3. Further enhance high margins by maintaining low cost structure. Royal Gold’s unique business model allows us to grow our royalty portfolio without adding significant overhead costs.

  4. Adhere to rigorous royalty evaluation criteria. The Company’s in-depth, technical evaluation and monitoring procedures provide us with a competitive advantage in acquiring and managing royalties.

  5. Continue geographic focus on Nevada gold districts with increasing worldwide exposure. The historical track record of successful gold mining in Nevada makes it an attractive region to seek royalties. With our strong royalty portfolio base in Nevada, we are now able to add attractive royalties in other parts of the world.
