The Elemental Altus Royalties and EMX Royalty Business Combination And Growth Profile Emerging As The Pro-forma Elemental Royalty Corp
Fred Bell, CEO of Elemental Altus Royalties (TSX.V:ELE) (OTCQX:ELEMF), and Dave Cole, CEO of EMX Royalty Corp (NYSE American: EMX) (TSXV: EMX), both join me to unpack the key transaction details, synergies, and growth profile emerging from the business combination of both companies into the emerging Elemental Royalty Corp. In the new combined entity, Dave will be the CEO, and Fred will be the President and COO, with the balance of the management team and board being a solid blend of the 2 companies current teams.
Dave starts us off with the big-picture rationale for this merger, creating a larger royalty company of scale, graduating up to the mid-tier category, with more analyst coverage and liquidity, a better cost of capital, the financial strength from the backing of the key strategic shareholder Tether Investments, and the potential to rerate in the future to a better price to net asset value multiple more in alignment with larger royalty peers.
Fred then takes us through the transaction specifics of the merger, including the recent financing, share roll back, and US big board exchange listing that were all announced earlier this month, in concert with this business combination. Fred also outlines the importance of having Tether Investments as their key strategic shareholder, and they financially backstop the kinds of accretive acquisitions that they can now go after. He also explains why they made the choice to establish an institutional account to gain exposure to Tether Gold (XAUt), a tokenized asset backed 1:1 by physical gold, to diversify the Company's treasury and increase exposure to rising gold prices with enhanced liquidity and efficiency.
We also dive into updates on their key cornerstone royalty partner projects: Timok, Laverton, Karlawinda, and Caserones. the organic development growth still on tap in their portfolio of royalties, the future upside of the continued royalty generation strategy, and s look ahead to future larger acquisitions than was possible for both companies up until the creation of this new combined vehicle.
