Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation

Announces Results for the Second Quarter

Ended June 30, 2018

TORONTO

,

Aug. 7, 2018

/CNW/ - Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation ("LIORC", TSX: LIF)

announced today its operation and cash flow results for the second quarter ended

June 30, 2018

.

Royalty revenue for the second quarter of 2018 amounted to

$5.1 million

as compared to

$33.8

million

for the second quarter of 2017. Equity (losses) earnings from the Iron Ore Company of

Canada

("IOC") amounted to

($6.1) million

or

($0.09)

per share as compared to

$14.3 million

or

$0.22

per share in 2017. Net (loss) income was

($3.3) million

or

($0.05)

per share compared to

$32.3 million

or

$0.50

per share for the same period in 2017. The shareholders' cash flow from

operations for the second quarter was

$15.5 million

or

$0.24

per share as compared to

$45.6 million

or

$0.71

per share for the same period in 2017.

The cash flow from operations, equity earnings and net income for the second quarter of 2018 were

lower than the second quarter of 2017, due to the work stoppage at IOC during which operations

were suspended until a new labour agreement was reached. The strike closed down the IOC

production facilities on

March 27, 2018

. The workforce returned to work on

May 28

, 2018. A new

five-year collective agreement is now in place and the ramp up to normal production rates was

achieved by the end of June. IOC is making every effort to maximize production for the remainder of

the year. Sales for the second quarter of 2018 were restricted by the availability of product as port

inventories had to be rebuilt.

The average index price for 62% fines increased 3% to

US$65

per tonne CFR China in the second

quarter of 2018 compared to the average price in the second quarter of 2017 of

US$63

per tonne.

Total IOC sales for calculating the royalty to LIORC – pellets plus concentrate for sale ("CFS") – of

0.53 million tonnes was 87% lower in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in

2017. In the second quarter of 2018 concentrate production continued to be preferentially directed

to the pellet plant due to the strong pellet demand and premiums. LIORC received an IOC dividend

in the second quarter of 2017 in the amount of

$15.3 million

or

$0.24

per share, whereas LIORC

received no dividend in the second quarter of 2018.

LIORC's results for the three months and six months ended

June 30

are summarized below:

Production

Total concentrate production in the second quarter of 2018 of 1.5 million tonnes was 69% lower than

the second quarter of 2017 and was 64% lower than the first quarter of 2018. Similarly, pellet

production in the second quarter of 2018 was 78% lower than the second quarter of 2017 and 81%

lower than the first quarter of 2017. As noted above, IOC production was negatively affected by the

labour strike.

Sales as Reported for the LIORC Royalty

Second quarter 2018 total iron ore tonnage sold by IOC (pellets plus CFS) of 0.53 million tonnes

was 87% below the total sales tonnage in the second quarter 2017. Again, sales of CFS and pellets

were negatively impacted by the labour strike.

Largely as a result of the strike, the royalty revenue for LIORC in the second quarter of 2018 was

85% lower than the revenue in last year's second quarter.

A summary of IOC sales for calculating the royalty to LIORC in millions of tonnes is as follows:

Outlook

IOC is expecting good production and sales tonnages in the third and fourth quarters of 2018. Rio

Tinto has reduced the IOC production guidance for 2018 to 9.0 to 10.0 million tonnes of iron ore

pellets and concentrates for its 58.72% interest in IOC, which is total saleable production of 15.3 to

17.0 million tonnes on a 100% basis. Achieving the low end of the guidance would result in

approximately 2% less total saleable tonnes produced in the second half of 2018 over the saleable

production of 10.06 million tonnes in the second half of 2017. Achieving the high end of the guidance

would result in approximately 15% more total saleable tonnes produced in the second half of 2018

over the saleable production in the second half of 2017.

In the second quarter of 2018 the Platts 62% Fe CFR China benchmark iron ore price averaged

US$65

per tonne, but was largely range bound with a high price of

US$68

per tonne, and a low of

US$63

per tonne. IOC sells its CFS product based on the 65% Fe index, and the Platts index price

for 65% Fe concentrate averaged

US$86

per tonne in the second quarter of 2018, 13% higher than

the price in the second quarter of 2017, but 5% lower than the average price in the first quarter of

2018. Atlantic Basin blast furnace pellet premiums, as reported by Platts, improved by 29% from

US$45

per tonne in the second quarter of 2017 to

US$58

per tonne against the comparable 2018

quarter.

In the second quarter of 2018, prices for iron ore products with higher value-in-use characteristics

have remained firm, supported by the environmental policies of the Chinese governments, and by

China's

strong steel demand and margins. The differential between the Platts indexes for 65% Fe

CFS and 62% Fe CFS has widened to

US$27

per tonne at the time of writing, the highest spread in

recent years. In the second quarter of 2018 the Canadian dollar weakened, reflecting concerns

regarding international trade. Benchmark iron ore prices have also been somewhat negatively

impacted by trade concerns but have been more resilient than other base metals, notably copper

and zinc.

The IOC employees and management continue their efforts to increase production and reduce unit

operating costs. Based on LIORC management's July site visit, they are optimistic regarding the

production and unit costs in the third and fourth quarter of 2018. Consistent ore production from the

Wabush

3 pit is expected in September. The No. 4 pellet line is scheduled to be refurbished over

approximately nine weeks, starting in late September. The usual maintenance of the rail and port

facilities is scheduled for the summer. Third-party rail haulage volumes are considerably improved

over 2017. Capital expenditures are still forecast at

C$220 million

for 2018.

The LIORC cash balance at

June 30, 2018

stood at

$18.7 million

with LIORC dividends payable on

July 25, 2018

of

$16.0 million

. As at

June 30, 2018

the current assets exceeded the current liabilities

by

$15.7 million

. With our expectation of strong production, sales and premiums for the high value-in-

use iron ore products from IOC over the balance of 2018, LIORC is in a good position to maintain

the regular dividend. In order to maintain the dividend policy of a regular dividend of

$0.25

per share

per quarter, LIORC will plan to rebuild the cash balance back to approximately

$30 million

, the pre-

strike level, as sales and prices permit.

Our shareholders will be aware from its

June 18, 2018

press release that the LIORC Directors

approved a special meeting of shareholders to seek approval of changes to the Articles. LIORC is

working on the details for the special meeting, including the preparation of the management

information circular and negotiating debt financing options. The Directors will determine the date of

the special meeting, likely to be in the fall of 2018. The LIORC Directors are aware of an investment

opportunity that they believe should result in the Corporation being stronger by adding a third

revenue stream to the royalty and equity investment in IOC. Shareholders are advised that the board

will only proceed with the proposed acquisition if it is accretive to shareholder value and is consistent

with our existing distribution and balance sheet objectives. Changes to the Articles are required to

make the proposed investment. Upon the amendment of the Articles, shareholders will enjoy the

rights and protections afforded to shareholders of a TSX-listed Canada Business Corporation Act

(CBCA) corporation (including with respect to corporate law duties on directors and officers and the

requirement to obtain shareholder approval of fundamental changes and certain dilutive share

issuances), ensuring that their interests continue to be adequately protected. The Board of Directors

believes these measures, which are consistent with those enjoyed by shareholders of other TSX-

listed CBCA corporations, are appropriate to protect the interests of LIORC's shareholders. We

understand shareholder concerns regarding dilution and maintaining its on-going dividends, and we

plan to manage both in a manner consistent with the past. Some shareholders have expressed

concern regarding the lack of diversification and growth. The Directors believe the most prudent plan

forward is to balance all these objectives in a very conservative manner by periodically pursuing

acquisitions only in circumstances where the acquisition will increase shareholder value and will be

consistent with our existing distribution and balance sheet objectives. We do not expect such

opportunities to present themselves often, but when they do – such as the one before us now – the

Directors need the authority to fully consider it on the merits. It is not our intention to use the

proposed amendments to materially change LIORC, as the Board expects to exercise its discretion

in the same conservative manner as it has managed the Corporation since its inception.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Directors of Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation,

Management's Discussion and Analysis

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Management's

Discussion and Analysis section of the Corporation's 2017 Annual Report, the financial statements

and notes contained therein and the

June 30, 2018

interim condensed consolidated financial

statements. The Corporation's revenues are entirely dependent on the operations of IOC as its

principal assets relate to the operations of IOC and its principal source of revenue is the 7% royalty

it receives on all sales of iron ore products by IOC. In addition to the volume of iron ore sold, the

Corporation's royalty revenue is affected by the price of iron ore and the Canadian – U.S. dollar

exchange rate.

The strike closed down the IOC production facilities on

March 27, 2018

. The workforce returned to

work on

May 28, 2018

. A new five-year collective agreement is now in place and the ramp up to

normal production rates was achieved by the end of June. IOC is making every effort to maximize

production for the remainder of the year. Sales for the second quarter of 2018 were restricted by

the availability of product as port inventories had to be rebuilt.

The first quarter sales of IOC are traditionally adversely affected by the general winter operating

conditions and are usually 15% – 20% of the annual volume, with the balance spread fairly evenly

throughout the other three quarters. Because of the size of individual shipments, some quarters may

be affected by the timing of the loading of ships that can be delayed from one quarter to the next.

Royalty revenue for the second quarter of 2018 amounted to

$5.1 million

as compared to

$33.8

million

for the second quarter of 2017. Equity (losses) earnings from IOC amounted to

($6.1) million

or

($0.09)

per share as compared to

$14.3 million

or

$0.22

per share in 2017. Net (loss) income

was (

$3.3 million

or

($0.05)

per share compared to

$32.3 million

or

$0.50

per share for the same

period in 2017. The shareholders' cash flow from operations for the second quarter was

$15.5

million

or

$0.24

per share as compared to

$45.6 million

or

$0.71

per share for the same period in

2017.

The cash flow from operations, equity earnings and net income for the second quarter of 2018 were

lower than the second quarter of 2017, due to the work stoppage at IOC during which operations

were suspended until a new labour agreement was reached.

The average index price for 62% fines increased 3% to

US$65

per tonne CFR China in the second

quarter of 2018 compared to the average price in the second quarter of 2017 of

US$63

per tonne.

Total IOC sales for calculating the royalty to LIORC – pellets plus CFS – of 0.53 million tonnes was

87% lower in the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. In the second

quarter of 2018 concentrate production continued to be preferentially directed to the pellet plant due

to the strong pellet demand and premiums. LIORC received an IOC dividend in the second quarter

of 2017 in the amount of

$15.3 million

or

$0.24

per share, whereas LIORC received no dividend in

the second quarter of 2018.

Total concentrate production in the second quarter of 2018 of 1.5 million tonnes was 69% lower than

the second quarter of 2017 and was 64% lower than the first quarter of 2018. Similarly, pellet

production in the second quarter of 2018 was 78% lower than the second quarter of 2017 and 81%

lower than the first quarter of 2017. As noted above, IOC production was negatively affected by the

labour strike.

Second quarter 2018 total IOC sales for calculating the royalty to LIORC (pellets plus CFS) of 0.53

million tonnes was 87% below the total sales tonnage in the second quarter 2017. Again, sales of

CFS and pellets were negatively impacted by the labour strike.

Largely as a result of the strike, the royalty revenue for LIORC in the second quarter of 2018 was

85% lower than the revenue in last year's second quarter.

Results for the six months were affected by the same factors as affected the three month period.

Royalty and commission interests amortization expense decreased by

$1.2 million

for the six months

due to the decrease in production as a result of the labour strike.

Standardized Cash Flow and Adjusted Cash Flow

For the Corporation, standardized cash flow is the same as cash flow from operating activities as

recorded in the Corporation's cash flow statements as the Corporation does not incur capital

expenditures or have any restrictions on dividends. Standardized cash flow per share was

$0.24

for

the quarter (2017 -

$0.71

). Cumulative standardized cash flow from inception of the Corporation is

$25.71

per share and total cash distributions since inception is

$25.19

per share, for a payout ratio

of 98%.

The Corporation also reports "Adjusted cash flow" which is defined as cash flow from operating

activities after adjustments for changes in amounts receivable, accounts payable and income taxes

recoverable and payable are excluded. It is not a recognized measure under International Financial

Reporting Standards ('IFRS"). The Directors believe that adjusted cash flow is a useful analytical

measure as it better reflects cash available for dividends to shareholders.

The following reconciles standardized cash flow from operating activities to adjusted cash flow (in

'000's).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Corporation had

$18.7 million

in cash as at

June 30, 2018

(

December 31, 2017

-

$40.5 million

)

with total current assets of

$33.0 million

(

December 31, 2017

-

$82.6 million

). The Corporation had

working capital of

$15.7 million

as at

June 30, 2018

(

December 31, 2017

-

$33.1 million

). The

Corporation's operating cash flow for the quarter was

$15.5 million

and the dividend paid during the

quarter was

$22.4 million

, resulting in cash balances decreasing by

$6.9 million

during the second

quarter of 2018.

Cash balances consist of deposits in Canadian dollars with Canadian chartered banks. Amounts

receivable primarily consist of royalty payments from IOC. Royalty payments are received in U.S.

dollars and converted to Canadian dollars on receipt, usually 25 days after the quarter end. The

Corporation does not normally attempt to hedge this short-term foreign currency exposure.

Operating cash flow of the Corporation is sourced entirely from IOC through the Corporation's 7%

royalty,

10 cents

commission per tonne and dividends from its 15.10% equity interest in IOC. The

Corporation intends to pay cash dividends of the net income derived from IOC to the maximum

extent possible, subject to the maintenance of appropriate levels of working capital.

The Corporation has a

$50 million

revolving credit facility with a term ending

September 18, 2020

with provision for annual one-year extensions. No amount is currently drawn under this facility (2017

– nil) leaving

$50.0 million

available to provide for any capital required by IOC or requirements of the

Corporation.

Outlook

IOC is expecting good production and sales tonnages in the third and fourth quarters of 2018. Rio

Tinto has reduced the IOC production guidance for 2018 to 9.0 to 10.0 million tonnes of iron ore

pellets and concentrates for its 58.72% interest in IOC, which is total saleable production of 15.3 to

17.0 million tonnes on a 100% basis. Achieving the low end of the guidance would result in

approximately 2% less total saleable tonnes produced in the second half of 2018 over the saleable

production of 10.06 million tonnes in the second half of 2017. Achieving the high end of the guidance

would result in approximately 15% more total saleable tonnes produced in the second half of 2018

over the saleable production in the second half of 2017.

In the second quarter of 2018 the Platts 62% Fe CFR China benchmark iron ore price averaged

US$65

per tonne, but was largely range bound with a high price of

US$68

per tonne, and a low of

US$63

per tonne. IOC sells its CFS product based on the 65% Fe index, and the Platts index price

for 65% Fe concentrate averaged

US$86

per tonne in the second quarter of 2018, 13% higher than

the price in the second quarter of 2017, but 5% lower than the average price in the first quarter of

2018.

Atlantic Basin blast furnace pellet premiums, as reported by Platts, improved by 29% from

US$45

per tonne in the second quarter of 2017 to

US$58

per tonne against the comparable 2018 quarter.

In the second quarter of 2018, prices for iron ore products with higher value-in-use characteristics

have remained firm, supported by the environmental policies of the Chinese governments, and by

China's

strong steel demand and margins. The differential between the Platts indexes for 65% Fe

CFS and 62% Fe CFS has widened to

US$27

per tonne at the time of writing, the highest spread in

recent years. In the second quarter of 2018 the Canadian dollar weakened, reflecting concerns

regarding international trade. Benchmark iron ore prices have also been somewhat negatively

impacted by trade concerns but have been more resilient than other base metals, notably copper

and zinc.

The IOC employees and management continue their efforts to increase production and reduce unit

operating costs. Based on LIORC management's July site visit, they are optimistic regarding the

production and unit costs in the third and fourth quarter of 2018. Consistent ore production from the

Wabush

3 pit is expected in September. The No. 4 pellet line is scheduled to be refurbished over

approximately nine weeks, starting in late September. The usual maintenance of the rail and port

facilities is scheduled for the summer. Third-party rail haulage volumes are considerably improved

over 2017. Capital expenditures are still forecast at

C$220 million

for 2018.

The LIORC cash balance at

June 30, 2018

stood at

$18.7 million

with LIORC dividends payable on

July 25, 2018

of

$16.0 million

. As at

June 30, 2018

the current assets exceeded the current liabilities

by

$15.7 million

. With our expectation of strong production, sales and premiums for the high value-in-

use iron ore products from IOC over the balance of 2018, LIORC is in a good position to maintain

the regular dividend. In order to maintain the dividend policy of a regular dividend of

$0.25

per share

per quarter, LIORC will plan to rebuild the cash balance back to approximately

$30 million

, the pre-

strike level, as sales and prices permit.

Our shareholders will be aware from its

June 18, 2018

press release that the LIORC Directors

approved a special meeting of shareholders to seek approval of changes to the Articles. LIORC is

working on the details for the special meeting, including the preparation of the management

information circular and negotiating debt financing options. The Directors will determine the date of

the special meeting, likely to be in the fall of 2018. The LIORC Directors are aware of an investment

opportunity that they believe should result in the Corporation being stronger by adding a third

revenue stream to the royalty and equity investment in IOC. Shareholders are advised that the board

will only proceed with the proposed acquisition if it is accretive to shareholder value and is consistent

with our existing distribution and balance sheet objectives. Changes to the Articles are required to

make the proposed investment. Upon the amendment of the Articles, shareholders will enjoy the

rights and protections afforded to shareholders of a TSX-listed CBCA corporation (including with

respect to corporate law duties on directors and officers and the requirement to obtain shareholder

approval of fundamental changes and certain dilutive share issuances), ensuring that their interests

continue to be adequately protected. The Board of Directors believes these measures, which are

consistent with those enjoyed by shareholders of other TSX-listed CBCA corporations, are

appropriate to protect the interests of LIORC's shareholders. We understand shareholder concerns

regarding dilution and maintaining its on-going dividends, and we plan to manage both in a manner

consistent with the past. Some shareholders have expressed concern regarding the lack of

diversification and growth. The Directors believe the most prudent plan forward is to balance all

these objectives in a very conservative manner by periodically pursuing acquisitions only in

circumstances where the acquisition will increase shareholder value and will be consistent with our

existing distribution and balance sheet objectives. We do not expect such opportunities to present

themselves often, but when they do – such as the one before us now – the Directors need the

authority to fully consider it on the merits. It is not our intention to use the proposed amendments to

materially change LIORC, as the Board expects to exercise its discretion in the same conservative

manner as it has managed the Corporation since its inception.
