TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 03, 2025--

Lithium Royalty Corp. ("LRC" or the "Company") announces third quarter 2025 results.

"Following the lithium price lows observed in June, the market has continued to strengthen on the back of sustained growth in demand. Energy storage growth has exceeded initial expectations, tightening market balance, while recent supply disruptions have further supported pricing. With the Tres Quebradas and Horse Creek projects commencing production during the quarter, LRC has now seen three asset start-ups in 2025, underscoring the strength of its counterparties advancing high-grade, low-cost projects. Royalty revenue from these new additions is expected to become more meaningful through 2026, supported by potential further price momentum. At current price trends, 4Q25 is on track to record the first increase in year-over-year price growth for the lithium industry since 1Q23," said Ernie Ortiz, President and CEO of LRC.

LRC is reporting 46 Lithium Carbonate Equivalent tonnes (LCEts) or 544 Spodumene Concentrate Equivalent tonnes (SCEts) in the quarter(1) , compared to 14 LCEts or 170 SCEts in the prior quarter.

Royalty revenue was $417 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $193 as compared to $224 in the same period of 2024. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by favourable pricing and quotational adjustments that were headwinds in prior quarters. LRC recorded its first royalty payment from Zijin's Tres Quebradas project in the quarter and expects payments from the project to ramp up gradually as operations continue to reach nameplate capacity. Spodumene prices rose 14% quarter-over-quarter to $813 per tonne (CIF China, per Shanghai Metals Market) but remained 6% lower year-over-year.

At September 30, 2025, LRC held $27.5 million of cash and had no debt. On July 10, 2025, LRC renewed its existing normal course issuer bid (NCIB), allowing the Company to purchase up to 1.2 million common shares through July 9, 2026. LRC acquired 4,400 shares under its NCIB during the quarter at an average price of C$5.90 per share.

Portfolio Updates

Zijin Mining Tres Quebradas Royalty: During the quarter, Zijin held a commissioning ceremony to mark first production from its Tres Quebradas project in Catamarca, Argentina(2) . The milestone marks Catamarca's third lithium mine to enter production and underscores Argentina's growing role in the global battery supply chain. The asset recorded one small shipment in the quarter with operations continuing to ramp up through year end 2025 and into 2026. The Tres Quebradas lithium project was acquired by Zijin in February 2022 for approximately C$960 million. Since then, Zijin has invested more than $600 million in capital expenditures to develop and fast-track the asset into production. Phase 1 contemplates 20,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) production. Zijin has disclosed that its planned Phase 2 expansion is expected to add 40,000 tpa of LCE, bringing total annual production capacity for the project to an estimated 60,000 — 80,000 tpa once both phases are fully operational. LRC holds a net 0.9% GOR royalty on the Tres Quebradas project.

Sigma Lithium Grota do Cirilo Royalty: During the quarter, Sigma Lithium released a corporate presentation outlining their strategy for H2 2025 and 2026(3) . The key pillars are: 1) securing an offtake or prepayment agreement for Phase 2; 2) lowering costs at plant gate, through mining and processing optimizations; and 3) maintaining commercial strategy through partnerships to capture seasonality and improve working capital. Sigma also advanced construction of Plant 2, which will double nameplate capacity to 520,000 tonnes per year, keeping the project on track for 2026 commissioning. In August, Sigma streamlined its leadership structure, consolidating key management roles. LRC holds a net 0.9% NSR royalty on the Grota do Cirilo project.

Core Lithium Finniss Royalty: During the quarter, Core Lithium secured firm commitments to raise A$50 million from a two-tranche institutional placement(4) . The first tranche closed on September 4, and the second tranche closed on October 16. Core Lithium also subsequently launched a share purchase plan and raised an additional A$4.3 million. Core Lithium disclosed that the raise will accelerate the advancement of the Finniss lithium project towards a final investment decision (FID) through expediting BP33 operational readiness activities and strengthening Core Lithium's balance sheet to support the ongoing strategic funding process. LRC visited the Finniss site in October 2025 and witnessed firsthand the fully-built DMS plant, solid transportation network in the Northern Territory, and the many deposits that could deliver additional mineral resource growth. Core Lithium has an ongoing process with Morgan Stanley Australia to evaluate a financing path to restart the mine. LRC holds a 2.5% GOR royalty on the Finniss project.

Elevra Lithium (previously Sayona Mining) Moblan Royalty: During the quarter, Sayona Mining completed its previously announced merger with Piedmont Lithium to form a new entity — Elevra Lithium. On August 25, Elevra announced a mineral resource expansion at the Moblan lithium project in Québec(5) . The updated mineral resource estimate (MRE) comprises 108 million tonnes (Mt) of measured and indicated mineral resource grading 1.21% Li O, and 13Mt of inferred mineral resource grading 1.06% Li O, both at a 0.55% Li O cut-off grade. The updated MRE represents a 60% increase in contained lithium oxide within the measured and indicated categories since the previous August 2024 estimate, positioning Moblan as one of the largest hard rock lithium deposits in the Americas. LRC holds a 2.5% GOR royalty on the Moblan project.

Delta Lithium Yinnetharra Royalty: During the quarter, Delta Lithium outlined its regional exploration progress, which identified six priority regional exploration targets through ground mapping and geochemical sampling(6) . Delta has completed heritage surveys and is prepared to resume drilling. The focus of the program will be on extending the high-grade Jameson Prospect and its current MRE of 0.8Mt at 1.66% Li(2) O, at a 0.5% cut-off grade. The drill rig was mobilized and Delta Lithium commenced drilling in early October. LRC holds a 1.0% GOR royalty on the Yinnetharra project.

Power Metals Case Lake Royalty: Following the release of its maiden cesium resource in June 2025, Power Metals advanced preparations for mining during the quarter. On September 18, Power Metals reported significant progress toward the development phase, including active permitting, baseline studies, and technical planning, aimed at positioning Case Lake as a near-term cesium producer(7) . Power Metals expanded its community engagement initiatives, commissioning Indigenous-owned contractors or environmental and drilling programs, and hosted a site visit by the Ontario Geological Survey. In July, Power Metals completed drilling and sampling programs to refine the geological model and identify additional spodumene and pollucite mineralization across the Henry and West Joe domes. These results reinforce Case Lake's potential to become one of only four producing cesium mines globally. Discussions with potential strategic partners and offtake counterparties also advanced, further positioning Power Metals as an emerging North American supplier of critical minerals. LRC holds a 2.0% GOR royalty on the Case Lake project. SMM reports that cesium carbonate prices are currently trading at $216,000 per tonne with prices increasing by 45% in the last month alone.

Sinova Global Horse Creek Royalty: In September, Sinova Global commenced production at its Horse Creek quartz mine near Golden, British Columbia(8) . The mine hosts reserves supporting a projected life of more than 60 years and has a nameplate production capacity of 300,000 tpa, with permits allowing output of up to 1.4Mt annually. Initial commissioning activities are focused on calibrating operations and verifying product quality to meet Sinova's high-purity specifications. Once quality verification is complete and financing is secured for Sinova's downstream silicon metal facility in Tiptonville, Tennessee, production is expected to ramp up further. The Government of Canada added silicon metal to its critical minerals list in July 2024. Silicon metal is widely used in chips, semiconductors, solar panels, and battery anodes. LRC holds a GOR royalty on the Horse Creek project, assessed at 8.0% on revenues less than $45 million and 4.0% on revenues greater than $45 million.

Royalty Acquisition

In August, LRC acquired a pre-existing 1.25% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on the Fox tungsten deposit in British Columbia, Canada that is owned and operated by Happy Creek Minerals. The Fox tungsten deposit has an existing resource of 1.15Mt at 1.23% tungsten trioxide (WO(3) ) at a range of cut-off grades between 0.175% to 0.45%(9) . On September 11, Happy Creek announced that it started a 100-hole, 10,000 meter drilling campaign to further expand the resource(10) . The company believes the resource could be expanded significantly and has an exploration target to double the resource. Tungsten prices averaged approximately $485 per metric ton unit (MTU) earlier in the year, rising to about $650/MTU at present.

The tungsten grades from the historical resource estimate rank among the highest of any producing operation in the Western world. Approximately, 85% of global production of tungsten is currently sourced from China, Russia, and North Korea(11) . Tungsten has various applications including semiconductors, robotics, defence, and electric vehicles and is classified as a critical mineral by the United States, Canada, and the European Union.

The acquisition, completed for approximately $260,000, provides LRC with strategic exposure to another critical mineral and meaningful upside potential for a modest financial investment. LRC remains primarily focused on lithium but is selectively pursuing tactical opportunities in other critical minerals where it holds a competitive advantage and can secure attractive, non-competitive transactions with outsized return potential.

Anticipated LRC Milestones(12)

• 4Q25/1H26 -- Inaugural royalty revenue from Ganfeng Lithium's Mariana project
• 4Q25/1H26 -- Progression of Core Lithium restart process for Finniss project restart
• 4Q25/1H26 -- Atlas Lithium $40 million pre-payment funding for Das Neves project
• 2H26 -- Power Metals' Case Lake cesium project to begin production
• 2026 -- Sigma Lithium Phase 2 production start at Grota do Cirilo project

Lithium Market

Global lithium demand remained strong during the quarter, supported by continued expansion in electric vehicle (EV) sales and faster-than-expected growth in the energy storage sector. China maintained robust double-digit EV growth, while Europe emerged as the fastest-growing region, driven by new mass-market vehicle launches and renewed government subsidies accelerating adoption across key markets.

According to Rho Motion, global EV sales rose 26% year-over-year (y/y) in the first nine months of 2025, driven by Europe with a 32% increase, China up 24%, and North America up 18%. In Europe, new incentive programs announced in the UK, Germany, France, and Italy in the second half of 2025 are expected to support ongoing strength into 2026. Subsidy levels include up to EUR4,000 per vehicle in Germany, GBP3,750 in the UK, and EUR10,000 in Italy, alongside at least seven new EV models set to launch below the EUR25,000 price point next year.

In China, EV penetration among passenger vehicles remained above 50% during the quarter, with notable acceleration in the commercial segment. This trend is particularly evident in electric trucks, where some battery manufacturers reported over 100% year-to-date growth. In North America, demand rose modestly in the quarter as OEM incentives and the phase-out of the $7,500 U.S. EV tax credit prompted a pull-forward of sales. Regional demand is expected to remain volatile but continues to represent a smaller share of global volumes compared to China and Europe.

Energy storage systems (ESS) continue to scale rapidly and LRC estimates they are likely to account for approximately 30% of global lithium demand in 2025. Tesla reported an 81% y/y increase in storage deployments in 3Q25 with shipments growing by 60% on a year-to-date basis. ICCSino estimated global ESS battery production grew by 64% y/y in the quarter and 78% year-to-date. Analysts expect the sector to expand a further 30--60% in 2026, underscoring its growing importance as a demand driver.

Additional demand tailwinds are emerging from new and underappreciated sources not yet fully incorporated into major demand forecasts. These include robotics, drones, electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOLs), electric marine shipping, and military applications. Robotics and automation are advancing rapidly as key enablers of the next technology cycle.

China's automation sector continues to expand, with industrial robot output up roughly 60% y/y to an annualized rate of approximately 900,000 units. Backed by Made in China 2025, the country now accounts for nearly half of global installations, supported by domestic producers supplying cost-effective systems that have accelerated industrial automation. These trends represent a structural shift toward technology-led productivity and a new domestic growth engine. Each full-size robot contains about 2 kilograms of LCE - modest today but expected to rise as humanoid and service robots scale globally. Robotics could represent up to 10% of global lithium demand by 2030.

Platforms such as Unitree's H1 and H2 humanoids are advancing "physical AI," while firms including Coco Robotics, Serve Robotics, and Zipline are deploying autonomous systems and drones across U.S. cities, extending lithium use beyond vehicles.

During the quarter, EHang Holdings introduced the VT35, a pilotless eVTOL aircraft with a 200-kilometre range and 120 kWh propulsion system, underscoring the electrification of aviation. Companies such as EHang, Joby, Archer, and Lilium are progressing toward commercial deployment, adding new layers of high-density lithium demand that complement growth from EVs and stationary storage.

Recent developments such as Figure AI's humanoid robots, now being trialed at BMW's manufacturing facilities, highlight accelerating investment in AI-driven automation. This wave of electrified manufacturing reinforces lithium's central role in powering the next industrial era.

Spodumene prices rose 14% quarter-over-quarter to $813 per tonne (CIF China, per Shanghai Metals Market) but remained 6% lower year-over-year. As of October 31, 2025 prices stood at approximately $944 per tonne or 16% higher than the 3Q25 average. Strong downstream demand and temporary supply disruptions, including downtime at a major Chinese mine, tightened the short-term market balance and drove inventory drawdowns through September and October.

With prices remaining below long-term incentive levels for many projects, supply growth is continuing to moderate. As a result, market conditions are expected to strengthen further into 2026, supported by resilient demand, ongoing supply discipline, and the accelerating buildout of energy storage and automation-driven technologies.

Non-IFRS Measures

This earnings release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, the non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the financial information reported under IFRS.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is a common metric used by investors and analysts to assist in their valuation of the Company. EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure, which excludes the following from net earnings:

• income tax expense and recovery;
• finance costs, netted against finance income; and
• depletion, depreciation and amortization.

In addition to EBITDA, we have determined that the following adjustments are necessary to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA, which we believe is a more accurate indicator of the Company's ongoing operational performance:

• impairment charges and reversals;
• gain/loss on sale/disposition of assets/mineral interests;
• foreign currency translation gains/losses;
• increase/decrease in fair value of financial assets;
• expenses related to one-time share-based compensation granted at IPO
• other non-recurring income and charges.

Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are valuable indicators of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs and fund acquisitions. These metrics are also frequently used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes, whereby the metrics are multiplied by a factor or "multiple" that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between Adjusted EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company. LRC believes these measures assist investors, analysts and our shareholders to better understand our ability to generate liquidity from operating cash flow, as LRC believes that the excluded amounts are not indicative of the performance of our core business and do not necessarily reflect the underlying operating results for the periods presented.
