About Altius
Altius’s strategy is to create per share growth through a diversified portfolio of royalty assets that relate to
long life, high margin operations. This strategy further provides shareholders with exposures that are well
aligned with global growth trends including increasing electricity-based market share within energy usage,
global infrastructure build and refurbishment growth, increased EAF based steelmaking, steadily increasing
agricultural fertilizer requirements and the enhanced appetite for financial asset diversification through
precious metals ownership. These macro-trends each hold the potential to cause higher demand for many
of Altius’s commodity exposures including potash, high purity iron ore, renewable energy, base metals, and
gold. In addition, Altius runs a successful Project Generation business that originates mineral projects for
sale to developers in exchange for royalties and that has a demonstrated track record of driving outsized
direct returns from its overall royalty investment portfolio. Altius has 46,276,054 common shares issued and
outstanding that are listed on Canada’s Toronto Stock Exchange. It is a member of both the S&P/TSX Small
Cap and S&P/TSX Global Mining Indices and the S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index.
