Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd. Announces Record 2017 Gold Equivalent Ounces

Record Gold Equivalent Ounces Earned in 2017

The Company's portfolio of royalties, streams and other interests delivered a record number of GEOs during the fourth quarter and for 2017. The Company received 58,933 GEOs in 2017, an increase of 54% compared to the 2016 results. The GEOs earned in the fourth quarter totaled 20,990 ounces, establishing a new quarterly record and 26% higher than the third quarter of 2017.

The increase is attributable to the additional producing assets acquired as part of the transformative $1.125 billion Orion transaction, which closed on July 31, 2017, and the Gibraltar silver streaming agreement completed in February 2017.

Since commencement of activities in June 2014, our GEOs production has been as follows:

Sean Roosen, Chair and Chief Executive Officer, commenting on the 2017 performance noted: "The record gold equivalent ounces earned results from the execution of our strategic plan to increase our portfolio of assets, thereby providing greater exposure to precious metal markets. We are very enthused about the future as a number of assets in our portfolio will begin to generate revenues once the underlying properties move to the production stage. We believe that our portfolio of assets will deliver the best growth profile within the royalty sector over the next 3 to 5 years."

Cautionary Statement Regarding 2017 GEOs Earned and Other Financial Information

Osisko cautions that, whether or not expressly stated, all figures contained in this press release including GEOs earned and other financial information are unaudited and preliminary, therefore reflect Osisko's expected 2017 results as of the date of this press release. Actual reported fourth quarter and 2017 results are subject to management's final review as well as audit by the Company's independent accounting firm and may vary from those expectations because of a number of factors, including, without limitation, additional or revised information and changes in accounting standards or policies or in how those standards are applied. Osisko will provide additional discussion and analysis and other important information about its 2017 results and financial position when it reports actual results on February 16, 2018.

¹ GEOs are calculated on a quarterly basis and include royalties, streams and offtakes. Silver earned from royalty and stream agreements was converted to gold equivalent ounces by multiplying the silver ounces by the average silver price for the period and dividing by the average gold price for the period. Diamonds, other metals and cash royalties were converted into gold equivalent ounces by dividing the associated revenue by the average gold price for the period. Offtake agreements were converted using the financial settlement equivalent divided by the average gold price for the period. Note that these figures have not been audited and are subject to change.
