Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, among others: the risks inherent in the operation of mining properties; a decreased price environment for gold and other metals on which our stream and royalty interests are paid; performance of and production at properties, and variation of actual performance from the production estimates and forecasts made by the operators of those properties; decisions and activities of the Company s management affecting margins, use of capital and changes in strategy; unexpected operating costs, decisions and activities of the operators of the Company s stream and royalty properties; changes in operators mining and processing techniques or stream or royalty calculation methodologies; resolution of regulatory and legal proceedings; unanticipated grade, geological, metallurgical, environmental, processing or other problems at the properties; revisions or inaccuracies in technical reports, reserve, resources and production estimates; changes in project parameters as plans of the operators are refined; the results of current or planned exploration activities; errors or disputes in calculating stream deliveries or royalty payments, or deliveries or payments not made in accordance with stream or royalty agreements; the liquidity and future financial needs of the Company; economic and market conditions; the impact of future acquisitions and stream and royalty financing transactions; the impact of issuances of additional common stock; and risks associated with conducting business in foreign countries, including application of foreign laws to contract and other disputes, environmental laws, enforcement and uncertain political and economic environments.
