Gold Equivalent Ounces |
|
|
|
GEOs are calculated on a quarterly basis and include royalties and
streams. Silver and copper earned from royalty and stream
agreements are converted to gold equivalent ounces by multiplying
the silver ounces or copper tonnes earned by the average silver or
copper price for the period and dividing by the average gold price
for the period. Diamonds, other metals and cash royalties are
converted into gold equivalent ounces by dividing the associated
revenue earned by the average gold price for the period. |

Non-IFRS Measures |
|
|
|
The Corporation has included certain performance measures in this
press release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed
by IFRS Accounting Standards including cash margin in dollars and
in percentage. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is
intended to provide additional information and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of
performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
These measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit
or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS Accounting
Standards. As Osisko’s operations are primarily focused on precious
metals, the Corporation presents cash margins as it believes that
certain investors use this information, together with measures
determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, to
evaluate the Corporation’s performance in comparison to other
companies in the precious metals mining industry who present
results on a similar basis. However, other companies may calculate
these non-IFRS measures differently.Cash margin (in dollars)
represents revenues less cost of sales (excluding depletion). Cash
margin (in percentage) represents the cash margin (in dollars)
divided by revenues. |

expressions or variations (including negative variations), or that
events or conditions “will”, “would”, “may”, “could” or “should”

pursued by Osisko, (b) the integration of acquired assets or (c)
the determination of Osisko’s PFIC status (d) that financial
information may be subject to year-end adjustments. The
forward-looking statements contained in this press release are
based upon assumptions management believes to be reasonable,
including, without limitation: the absence of significant change in

PFIC status, and the absence of any other factors that could cause
actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated,
estimated or intended and, with respect to properties in which

accuracy of public statements and disclosures made by the owners or
operators of such underlying properties (including expectations for
the development of underlying properties that are not yet in
production), (iii) no adverse development in respect of any
significant property, (iv) that statements and estimates relating
to mineral reserves and resources by owners and operators are
accurate and (v) the implementation of an adequate plan for
integration of acquired assets.
