Quarterly Portfolio Updates

Australia:

• Northparkes (54% gold stream and 80% silver stream): Sales from Northparkes in Q1 2026 were 6,708 GEOs.
  
  High-grade gold production has transitioned from the E31 and E31N open pits to the E48 sub-level cave, which started production in the third quarter of 2025 and is expected to ramp up through 2026. During the first quarter of 2026, Evolution Mining Limited (“Evolution”) completed the first cut for the E22 block cave. Surface works have also commenced to enable twin access between E48 and E22, which will optimize access, ventilation and materials handling.
  
  On a 100% basis as of December 31, 2025, the Measured and Indicated gold resource (inclusive of Proved and Probable reserves) at Northparkes is 575 million tonnes grading 0.19 g/t containing 3.5 million ounces Au, while the Inferred gold resource is 58.75 million tonnes grading 0.16 g/t containing 0.30 million ounces Auⁱ.
  
  The pre-feasibility study on the potential 10.0 Mtpa mill expansion at Northparkes is on track for completion during Evolution’s fiscal year ending in June 2027. The completion of this study is expected to drive further reserve and resource growth.

• Beta Hunt (3.25% GR gold royalty and 1.5% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Beta Hunt in Q1 2026 equated to 1,364 GEOs.
  
  Westgold Resources Limited (“Westgold”) continues to advance the expansion project to achieve consistent underground mining rates at Beta Hunt of 2 million tonnes per annum by the end of the first half of 2026.
  
  Following the declaration of a maiden resource for the Fletcher Zone in 2025, which effectively doubled the previous Beta Hunt resource, substantial exploration and definition drilling to determine its potential scale is ongoing before its integration into a life-of-mine plan. The Fletcher Zone is a significant discovery at Beta Hunt that is interpreted to represent a new gold mineralized structure parallel to the Western Flanks deposit of the mine and is located 50 meters to the west. The Fletcher Zone is within Triple Flag’s royalty coverage area. Western Flanks is currently the primary source of gold ore for Beta Hunt. The maiden resource remains open at depth and represents exploration drilling from only approximately half of the known strike length.
  
  In March 2026, Westgold approved an expansion of the Higginsville mill to a nameplate capacity of 2.6 Mtpa (from 1.6 Mtpa), which is expected to be completed during its fiscal year 2028. Notably, Westgold has assumed that the main Beta Hunt operation will provide 2.0 Mtpa of feed to Higginsville, with the remaining balance from the Fletcher Zone during Westgold’s fiscal year 2029. The 2.6 Mtpa expansion flowsheet has been engineered to support future potential growth to 4.0 Mtpa.

• Fosterville (2.0% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Fosterville in Q1 2026 equated to 704 GEOs. In February 2026, Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle”) released an updated three-year outlook.
