Asset Portfolio Updates

Camino Rojo (2% NSR)

Orla Mining Ltd. ("Orla") declared commercial production at its Camino Rojo oxide mine effective April 1, 2022, after a successful commissioning period which included the ramp up of mining and processing to sustained throughput levels. All major construction activities have now been completed and Camino Rojo has demonstrated its ability to sustain ongoing production levels. Record monthly processing throughput was achieved at Camino Rojo in March 2022. The average daily stacking throughput for the month was 17,444 tonnes per day ("tpd") or 97% of nameplate capacity of 18,000 tpd. Achieving nameplate capacity is expected during the second quarter of 2022. Orla will continue to seek opportunities to improve and optimize the throughput and availabilities to achieve and ultimately exceed design nameplate capacities.

Beta Hunt (4.75% Gold Royalty and 1.5% Nickel Royalty)

On April 7, 2022, Karora Resources Inc. ("Karora") announced an updated consolidated gold mineral resource highlighted by the maiden gold resource for the Larkin Zone at the Beta Hunt mine. Beta Hunt gold measured and indicated mineral resources increased by 7% to 1.12 million ounces and the gold inferred mineral resource increased by 46% to 786,000 ounces. Significant Beta Hunt additions include the maiden Larkin Zone mineral resource comprising gold measured and indicated resources of 1.44 million tonnes at 2.6 grams per tonne ("g/t") for 119,000 ounces and a gold inferred resource of 2.17 million tonnes at 2.3 g/t for 162,000 ounces. The Larkin Zone has been delineated to a strike length of over 1,000 metres and a depth of 150 metres and remains open along strike and at depth providing significant potential for further expansion as the drill program at Beta Hunt continues. Targeted drilling at Beta Hunt continues to grow the gold mineral resource inventory in support of Karora's growth plan which is underpinned by an expansion to 2.0 million tonnes per annum production from Beta Hunt by 2024.

Mt Carlton (2.5% NSR)

On April 22, 2022, Navarre Minerals Limited ("Navarre") announced high-grade gold, silver and copper drilling intercepts at its Mt Carlton United deposit ("MCU"), part of the recently acquired Mt Carlton Operation ("Mt Carlton"). With drill intercepts of up to 22.9 g/t gold, 1,327 g/t silver and 4.2% copper, the results confirm the outstanding grade and continuity of the mineral inventory at MCU, approximately four kilometres southwest of the Mt Carlton processing facility. While drilling continues in 2022 as part of an ongoing exploration program, Navarre anticipates the drilling results released to date will be incorporated into an updated resource estimate for MCU which is expected to be published in September 2022, along with updated mineral resources for other Mt Carlton deposits such as V2, Telstra Hill and Crush Creek.

Omolon (2.5% GRR)

On April 25, 2022 Polymetal International plc ("Polymetal") announced it continues to operate safely and profitably and is fully focused on ensuring business continuity and long-term viability. Polymetal also reconfirmed its fiscal 2022 production guidance. Sanctions announced in the period between March 9, 2022 and April 25, 2022 did not have a material impact on the business of Polymetal and it complies rigorously with all relevant legislation and is implementing comprehensive measures to observe all applicable international sanctions. The scope and impact of any new potential sanctions (and any countersanctions) are yet unknown, however they might further affect key Russian financial institutions as well as mining companies, including Polymetal. Maverix understands that contingency planning has been initiated by Polymetal proactively to maintain business continuity in the event of adverse developments, but no assurances can be made in this regard. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine and any restrictive actions that have or may be taken in response thereto, such as sanctions, export and or currency controls, could have negative impacts on Polymetal's ability to continue operation of the Omolon hub and Polymetal's ability to make payments to the Company.

Karma (2% NSR)

On March 11, 2022, Endeavour Mining plc ("Endeavour") announced that it had closed the sale of its 90% interest in its Karma mine to Néré Mining. A key consideration of the sales process was the selection of a party that will maintain Endeavour's trusted partnerships in Burkina Faso, by committing to operate the mine in the best interests of employees and stakeholders. Néré Mining is a Burkina Faso based consortium led by a board member of both Karma and a subsidiary of Endeavour that holds the mining license for the Endeavour Group's Mana mine.

Gemfield (5% NSR)

On February 28, 2022, Centerra Gold Inc. ("Centerra") announced it completed the acquisition of the Goldfield District project ("Goldfield") for $206.5 million. Goldfield is a conventional open-pit, heap leach project located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Goldfield is comprised of three known deposits including the Gemfield, Goldfield Main, and McMahon deposits. The Gemfield deposit is fully permitted and shovel ready and was identified by Centerra as the first pit for potential development. In 2019, Waterton Global Resource Management, Inc. announced it was completing a feasibility study for the project with project average annual production in excess of 125,000 ounces of gold. Centerra expects to release an updated resource estimate in the first half of 2023 and an updated feasibility study thereafter.

DeLamar (2.5% NSR)

On April 21, 2022, Integra Resources Corp. announced a simplified strategy to advance the heap leach stage of the project into permitting and development on a standalone basis. Permitting work at DeLamar has been initiated and baseline study work is well underway to support the submittal of a Plan of Operations in H1 2023. Advancing the DeLamar gold-silver project towards permitting and development of the heap leach stage as a standalone mining operation is a lower cost, lower risk option, creating strong economic returns and rapid payback. Non-oxide milling expansion will continue to be optimized through further study work and could be pursued under the right market conditions.

Silvertip (2.5% NSR)

On April 28, 2022, Coeur Mining, Inc. ("Coeur") announced a new discovery at the Silvertip mine that indicates significant potential to grow the mineral resources of the mine immediately west of existing infrastructure. Surface and underground drilling led to the discovery of a new high-grade chimney west of the Camp Creek resource located at a shallower depth, called Camp Creek West. The first full drill holes into the zone returned the highest grade-thickness assays at Silvertip to date. For the remainder of 2022, Coeur expects to continue infill drilling in the Southern Silver and Central zones from underground. An additional surface core rig is expected to be added following the snow melt to perform expansion drilling at Camp Creek West.

Qualified Person

Brendan Pidcock, P.Eng., is Vice President, Technical Services for Maverix, and a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical disclosure contained in this news release.

Cautionary statements to U.S. investors

Information contained or referenced in this press release or in the documents referenced herein concerning the properties, technical information and operations of Maverix has been prepared in accordance with requirements and standards under Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300"). The terms "mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" used in this press release or in the documents incorporated by reference herein are mining terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under guidelines set out in the Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Council. While the terms are substantially similar to the same terms defined under S-K 1300 there are differences in the definitions. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral resources that the Company may report under NI 43-101 will be the same as resource estimates prepared under the standards adopted under S-K 1300. Because the Company is eligible for the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System adopted by the SEC and Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company is not required to present disclosure regarding its mineral properties in compliance with S-K 1300. Accordingly, certain information contained in this press release concerning descriptions of mineralization and mineral resources under these standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by US companies subject to reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC.

Non-IRFS Measures

Maverix has included certain performance measures in this news release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") including adjusted net income, total GEOs sold, average realized gold price per GEO, average cash cost per GEO, cash operating margin and cash flow from operating activities, excluding changes in non-cash working capital. Adjusted net income is calculated by excluding the effects of the non-cash cost of sales related to the prepaid gold interests, non-cash change in fair value of the prepaid gold interests, other income/expenses, impairment charges, gains/(losses) on sale or amendments of royalty and streams and unusual non-recurring items. The Company believes that adjusted net income is a useful measure of the Company's performance because it adjusts for items which may not relate to or have a disproportionate effect on the period in which they are recognized, impact the comparability of our core operating results from period to period, are not always reflective of the underlying operating performance of our business and/or are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. The Company's royalty revenue and silver sales are converted to a GEO basis by dividing the royalty revenue and silver sales for a period by the average gold price based on the LBMA Gold Price PM Fix per ounce for the same respective period. These GEOs when combined with the gold ounces sold from the Company's gold streams and prepaid gold interests equal total GEOs sold. Average realized gold price per GEO is calculated by dividing the total revenue by the GEOs sold. Average cash cost per GEO is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion less non-cash cost of sales of the prepaid gold interests, by the GEOs sold. In the precious metals mining industry, these are common performance measures but do not have any standardized meaning. Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost per GEO sold from the average realized gold price per GEO sold. The Company presents cash operating margin as it believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal royalty and streaming sector who present results on a similar basis. The Company has also used the non-IFRS measure of operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital. This measure is calculated by adding back the decrease or subtracting the increase in changes in non-cash working capital to or from cash provided by (used in) operating activities. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently. The 2022 forecast herein assumes a gold price of $1,750 per ounce and a silver price of $21.00 per ounce. The forecast was derived using information that is available in the public domain as at the date hereof, which included guidance and estimates prepared and issued by management of the operators of the mining operations in which Maverix holds an interest. The forecast is sensitive to the performance and operating status of the underlying mines. None of the information has been independently verified by Maverix and may be subject to uncertainty. There can be no assurance that such information is complete or accurate. Maverix's business, operations, financial condition, and financial outlook could be materially adversely affected by the continued impact of the COVID-19 global health pandemic. At this time, Maverix cannot reasonably estimate the duration of any potential business disruptions, impact to underlying operations that Maverix holds an interest in or any related financial impact that is related to or caused by COVID-19.
