Royal Gold reports Q1 adjusted EPS 91c, consensus 94c

Reports Q1 revenue $148.9M vs $170.39M last year. “Our portfolio performed well during the first quarter and we started 2024 off on a positive note,” commented Bill Heissenbuttel, President and CEO of Royal Gold. “Our low and stable cost structure meant that we were able to benefit from the record gold price and our underlying cash flow from operations was solid for the quarter. In addition, we received payments from Centerra and MMG during the quarter, which combined with our cash flow, allowed us to repay $175 million of debt already in 2024. We have now rebuilt our available liquidity to approximately $1 billion.”
