8 million and a 94% rise in net earnings to 33 cents per share, driven by a 5% increase in gold-equivalent ounces. The company completed significant acquisitions including Gold Fields royalty portfolio and Spring Valley, and closed the Murray Brook stream, with a focus on seeking further accretive opportunities. Despite a rock mass movement at Canadian Malartic, 2026 guidance remains at 80-90,000 GEOs, and the long-term outlook for 2030 is unchanged at 120-135,000 GEOs, with no concerns around concentration risk.
Operational highlights include a quarterly production record at Odyssey and ramp-ups at Nandimi and San Gabriel, while logistical issues at CSA deferred some GEOs into the second half. The company increased its revolving credit facility and extended its maturity, indicating a strong financial position to pursue future growth opportunities. Full Transcript OPERATOR Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Osisko Gold Royalties Q2 2026 results conference call. After the presentation, we will conduct a question-and-answer session.
If you would like to ask a question, please press STAR followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. m. Eastern Time. I would now like to turn the meeting over to our host for today's call, Mr.
Jason Attew. Jason Attew, President & CEO Good morning everybody and thank you for joining us on a busy earnings day. Please note that the news release and regulatory filings are available on our website and on EDGAR and SEDAR. Plus, if you're logging into the webcast, we will advance the slides for today's presentation, which is also available in the Investors section of our website.
Please also note there are forward-looking statements in this presentation from which actual results may differ and that all amounts presented and discussed will be in US dollars unless otherwise noted. I'm joined on the call this morning by Frédéric Ruel, the company's Chief Financial Officer. As indicated on slide 3, Fred will take you through the financial results in a few minutes. Three things to take away from the second quarter: First, our portfolio did its job.
2 million were both up 62% over the second quarter of last year on a 5% increase in gold-equivalent ounces. That spread—5 points of GEO growth producing 62 points of cash flow growth—is the whole argument for this business model. 8 cents of every revenue dollar converted to cash margin this quarter, which is the best in the sector. Also, net earnings were up 94% to 33 cents per share.
Second, capital: we closed on the Gold Fields royalty portfolio and the Spring Valley acquisitions, 335 million in total, funded largely from our revolver which stood at 215 million drawn at quarter end. In July, we closed the Murray Brook stream as well. The second half's job is straightforward: continue to seek accretive opportunities for our owners. Third, guidance: first half deliveries were 43,497 gold-equivalent ounces, which were up 12% over the first half of 2025 and has us comfortably on track for our 80 to 90,000 GEO range for 2026, and I want to spend a minute on why that remains true after the news at Canadian Malartic.
As most of you are aware, on July 1st a rock mass movement occurred along the north wall of the Barnat open pit at Canadian Malartic. Nobody was hurt. As Agnico described on its second quarter call last week, its monitoring systems were tracking the wall and mining in the area had already been suspended as a precaution. The systems worked exactly as designed.
Here is the updated picture from that call: roughly 1 million tonnes of moved material will remain in place. Agnico will spend the third quarter building safety berms and access roads, with mining in the affected area expected to resume in the fourth quarter. In total, approximately 370,000 ounces of gold are now considered inaccessible over the next three years—60 to 80,000 ounces in the second half of 2026 and up to roughly 150,000 ounces in each of 2027 and 2028. Agnico now expects full-year production toward the lower end of its guidance range at Canadian Malartic, supplementing mill feed from low-grade stockpiles.
In the meantime, most of you would have already updated your models for this event, but I will walk you through our math. Applying 5% to those figures means roughly 3,500 fewer GEOs to OR in 2026 and up to roughly 7,500 fewer GEOs in each of 2027 and 2028—so, call it 18,500 gold-equivalent ounces over three years. This, of course, would be before any mitigation or recovery activities Agnico undertakes. Three things don't change because of this: our 2026 guidance of 80,000 to 90,000 GEO stands; our 2030 outlook of 120 to 135,000 GEOs is unaffected because Barnat was always scheduled to be mined out by 2028 or 2029.
In Odyssey, the future of Canadian Malartic is untouched. It set a quarterly production record of 28,800 ounces. The first phase of shaft number one sinking was completed in July at a depth of 1,586 meters, and first shaft production remains on schedule for the second quarter of 2027. Agnico was clear on its call that its journey to 1 million ounces at Canadian Malartic by the early 2030s remains unchanged.
I'd also note, on a more somber subject, that Canadian Malartic's second quarter included a six-day mill shutdown following a fatal accident in April. Our thoughts remain with the family and colleagues affected, and we fully support Agnico's position that nothing at the operation matters more than the safety of its people. Two smaller items also moved against us: at CSA, concentrate sat on site at quarter end because of transport logistics, deferring some silver and copper GEOs into the second half. Harmony expects inventories to normalize over the balance of the year.
And Mantos Blancos delivered fewer GEOs than in the first quarter, which we had flagged last quarter, as silver grades were front-end loaded this year. Net of all this, we now expect the second half to be modestly lighter than the first. Barnat takes ounces out and the ramp-ups at Nandimi, San Gabriel, Dalgaranga, Seabee, and CSA put some back, scoring ourselves against what we previously committed to: the 2026 guidance is on track, the 2030 outlook intact, and it still excludes any GEOs from the additional Spring Valley coverage or the Murray Brook transactions, both of which now have closed. So that outlook has contingency built in.
One more thing on Malartic, because it frames how we think about everything we own. Agnico's update on the path to 1 million ounces is now expected in November, and their Chief Operating Officer has publicly said that even at an expanded production rate, the life of mine could still extend out to 2060. Before Gene Cernan climbed off the moon in 1972—he was the last man to walk on it—he wrote his daughter's initials in lunar dust. Because there's no atmosphere up there, they're still there today.
A royalty on a great orebody works the same way. Mine plans get revised, pit walls get redesigned, operators may come and go. The orebody—and our royalty on it—doesn't move. The announcement of the wall movement changes our near-term GEOs, but it changes nothing about what we own and our shareholders as well.
Briefly, across the rest of the portfolio, we received the first royalty payment from Dalgaranga this quarter, and at Nandimi our increased 2% royalty is becoming a significant contributor as the ramp-up hits its stride. Our portfolio currently boasts 23 producing assets, and the 24th producing asset should be Cabral Gold's Cuiú Cuiú project in Brazil, with commissioning still on schedule for the fourth quarter. Slide 8 lists the catalysts ahead on assets representing over half our NAV.
The three I'd watch out for are Harmony's fiscal 2027 guidance expected this month, with an updated mineral resource estimate and life-of-mine plan to follow later in the year; also, first gold at Almasar in September, where our stream should begin accruing from first production ahead of its first payments expected in 2028, which is largely dependent on commodity price and the pace at which the operator, United Gold, pays back their loan; and finally, an update from Agnico on Canadian Malartic's future now expected, as I said earlier, to be coming in November. On new business, the pipeline is active and our criteria have not moved. No non-dilutive deals.
We can afford that selectivity because our growth through 2030 is already bought and paid for with zero contingent capital. Beyond that, we don't comment on transactions until they're signed. I'd like to hand it over to Fred to talk about our financial results. Frédéric Ruel, Chief Financial Officer Thank you, Jason, and good morning everyone.
4 million a year ago, a 62% growth on 5% more GEOs, driven by realized prices of $4,504 per ounce of gold and $17 per ounce of silver. 8%, last year. 8 million of revenue; streams contributed 35 million. 4 million, or 33 cents per basic share, against 17 cents a year ago.
5 million, or 32 cents per share, up 78%. 2 million, up 62%—44 cents per share against 27 cents last year—and that per-share line is the one we manage the business to. 6 million of cash and 215 million drawn on the credit facility for a net debt position of 139 million. The draw funded the Gold Fields and Spring Valley closings, and we also repaid 18 million on the credit facility during the quarter.
5 cent dividend has been declared, payable October 15th. 6 million shares repurchased and canceled year to date. Subsequent to quarter end, we also closed the 28 million Murray Brook precious-metals stream with Kintavar and Copper, together with a 4 million equity subscription. The initial 9 million was funded from cash on hand.
Also in the third quarter, we expect to close the 15 million extension of our royalty coverage at Chile's Costa Fuego to include the new Laverde discovery. Our capital allocation framework is unchanged: returns to shareholders through the dividend and buybacks as well as investment into precious-metals royalties and streams, with ongoing debt repayment being considered normal course, all prioritized in whatever order creates the most net asset value per share. In the first half that meant new acquisitions; in the second half it could mean more opportunistic share repurchases.
And as Jason mentioned, if we don't find and announce any accretive deals for our shareholders over this period, we'll look to reduce the debt drawn on our credit facility. And on this point, I'd like to flag that earlier this week Osisko Gold Royalties, along with a syndicate of supporting banks, officially amended its revolving credit facility to increase the amount available from 650 million to 850 million and the accordion from 200 million to 350 million. We also extended the maturity date from May 2029 to August 2030. Back to you, Jason.
Jason Attew, President & CEO Thank you, Fred. And with that, I'd like to thank everyone for listening. We'll now open up the line for questions as well as questions posted in the webcast. If we don't get to all the questions online, we'll make sure we respond offline.
Back to you, Joelle. OPERATOR Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. Should you have a question, please press star followed by the 1 on your touch-tone phone.
You will hear a prompt that your hand has been raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press star followed by the two. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. One moment please for your first question.
Your first question comes from Cosmos Chu with CIBC. Your line is now open. Cosmos Chu, Analyst Thanks. Thanks, Jason and team, for a very thorough presentation.
Maybe my first question is on Agnico Eagle and Barnett pit. And thanks, Jason, for giving us a very detailed description of potential impact to our royalties. I guess my question is, as you pointed out, you know, issues at the pit, Agnico Eagle share price came down and our share price also came down in sympathy, and I guess any concerns about concentration risk. You know, Canadian Malartic continues to be one of the largest, or the largest, royalty for your company and it's going to grow in size and importance as it kind of channels towards a million ounces a year production.
So again, how should we look at it in the context of our royalties and, as time progresses, any concerns about concentration risk. Jason Attew, President & CEO Thank you, Cosmo. It's a very good question and something certainly our board and ourselves discussed this week. So you wouldn't have thought, you know, a few weeks back that Agnico Eagle, who's got an exceptional reputation as an operator — very, very good operator — they've really put on a master class as it relates to the Canadian Malartic, including the underground expansion.
I mean, the Odyssey is the future of certainly our company and certainly, again, the journey to 1 million ounces for Agnico. We fully support, again, that operating group — their operational acumen, their technical acumen — and the fact, again, this asset is in Quebec. So the short answer, Cosmo, is no, we don't have any sort of issues or concerns around concentration risk. The concentration in terms of our net asset value, as you would be aware because in your model it's around 25 to 30% of NAV.
So it's not 50%, 60% or what have you, but we're incredibly comfortable. First, where the asset's located in Quebec — a very supportive regulatory environment, exceptional workforce — that's really endorsed, and the technical acumen of the Agnico team we have just a tremendous amount of comfort over. Yes, what happened was unfortunate, but the reason why they actually do have these systems in place is to ensure that with a large open pit, any sort of rock mass movement is detected. And Agnico took all the precautionary steps and obviously, as you heard in my comments and Agnico's comments last week, nobody was hurt and certainly they're working through right now.
Again, as I said and what Agnico said last week, the focus will be on building berms, access roads and ensuring the safety of that pit when they go and re—access it for mining going forward. So short answer is no, we don't have any real concerns or issues around concentration risk. This is the crown jewel in our portfolio and, as you rightly pointed out, as they make the journey to 1 million ounces, it is incrementally positive for our company. But excellent question.
Thanks, Cosmo. Cosmos Chu, Analyst Great, thanks, Jason. And maybe switching gears a little bit, you know, you touched on your longer—term guidance, your 2030 guidance, 1202305000 ounces. And as you mentioned, that does not yet include Spring Valley, Murray Brook, and maybe some of the other more, you know, recent acquisitions as well.
So I guess could you maybe in words, you know, qualitatively talk about how that could potentially change your five—year or your 2030 outlook and then in terms of the actual numbers coming out. Are we going to have to wait until, say, February 2027 before we get, you know, your updated longer—term outlook? Jason Attew, President & CEO Yeah. Another excellent question.
Thank you, Cosmo. So again, yes, our process is we update the market once a year in February in terms of our five—year outlook. Obviously through that year our corporate development team has done an exceptional job of putting more accretive assets into our portfolio that have not been reflected in the 2030 — things that you mentioned, such as our coverage to get to 6% NSR in Spring Valley we think is going to be very incremental to that outlook going forward. Things like Murray Brook.
Again, we have a tremendous amount of time and respect for that operating group and very accretive deal for ourselves, as well as we're seeing some really good positive momentum within our portfolio. You know the story of Island Gold and Nandimi is also becoming a very good cornerstone royalty for us as, again, you would know that we picked up another — the sister royalty — going from 1 to 2% in that asset. So yes, portfolio is growing as you know and you commented on, we've got the best five—year outlook with no contingent capital associated.
When we do go and give our 2031 guidance in February, it will include a lot of the corporate development activity and activity that we see from positive developments with respect to our development assets. Cosmos Chu, Analyst Thanks, Jason. And maybe one last question. You know, you made an incremental acquisition at Hot Chili, extending your 1% copper and 3% gold royalties to the Laverde project.
