Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 23, 2024) - Elemental Altus Royalties Corp. (TSXV: ELE) (OTCQX: ELEMF) ("Elemental Altus" or the "Company") notes that following the announcement of an agreement to acquire a portfolio of royalties for US$28 million in Company equity (the "Transaction"), La Mancha Investments S.à r.l ("La Mancha") has notified the Company of its intent to exercise its Anti-Dilution right in full to maintain the same percentage ownership it held prior to completion of the transaction (the "Private Placement").

Frederick Bell, CEO of Elemental Altus, commented: "Following announcement of the AlphaStream Transaction, the exercise of La Mancha's Anti-Dilution Right provides the Company with a further C$17.7 million in cash to continue to grow our royalty portfolio. We look forward to working with La Mancha and AlphaStream to add value moving forwards."

La Mancha Private Placement

Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement between an affiliate of La Mancha and the Company, La Mancha has confirmed its intention to exercise its Anti-dilution Right in totality and subscribe for 16,141,940 Common Shares, or such other number of Common Shares as will allow La Mancha to achieve the same percentage ownership as it holds in the Company prior to the completion of the Transaction, subject to completion of the Transaction. The subscription price for the Common Shares will be C$1.10 per share for aggregate proceeds of C$17,756,134. The closing of the Private Placement is expected to occur proximate to the closing of the Transaction and Company will use the proceeds for royalty acquisitions, working capital, and general corporate purposes.

Shares issued to La Mancha pursuant to its Anti-dilution Right will be subject to restrictions on transfer for a period of four months plus a day pursuant to Canadian securities laws and TSX Venture Exchange requirements and are subject to certain conditions including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Background to the Transaction

On October 16, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire an additional 50% ownership of 24 existing royalties (the "Portfolio") from an affiliate of AlphaStream Limited ("AlphaStream") for a consideration of US$28 million in equity (the "Acquisition"). The Portfolio includes Elemental Altus' existing producing gold royalties on the Bonikro Gold Project ("Bonikro"), the Ballarat Mine ("Ballarat"), South Kalgoorlie Operations ("SKO") and 21 additional royalties located in Australia. Upon completion of the Acquisition, Elemental Altus, through a 100% interest in the Portfolio, will hold an effective 4.5% NSR royalty on Bonikro, a 2.5% NSR royalty on Ballarat, and a A$10/oz royalty and A$1 million Discovery Bonus on SKO.

The Portfolio acquisition provides immediate cash flow with approximately US$6 million additional revenue forecast in 2025 by consolidating the Portfolio and expected pro forma 2025 revenue increase of ~25% to US$31 million1, driving a material step up in free cash flow with no increase in management costs.
