Orogen Sells Royalty, Rest of Company To Be Spun Off

Source: Adrian Day 04/29/2025

Last week, Orogen Royalties Inc. (OGN:TSXV; OGNRF:OTCQX) announced an agreement to be acquired by Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. (TFPM:TSX; TFPM:NYSE) in a stock and cash transaction valued at CA$2 per share. Global Analyst Adrian Day explains why he thinks this is a big win for shareholders.

Orogen Royalties Inc. (OGN:TSXV; OGNRF:OTCQX) announced it had agreed to be acquired by Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. (TFPM:TSX; TFPM:NYSE) for CA$2 per share.

TFPM will $342 million in cash and shares (equivalent to $1.70 per share) and spin out to shareholders all assets of the company other than the Expanded Silicon Royalty.

These include a cash balance of over $20 million; a revenue-generating royalty on First Majestic Silver Corp.’s (AG:TSX; AG:NYSE; FMV:FSE) Ermitaño mine; and several other royalties on exploration projects, as well as other generative properties, 100% owned and in partnerships. The “newco” has a pro-forma valuation of 37 cents per share, which I believe is very well supported. This is a big win for shareholders, and I recommend voting in favor when the proxies are sent to shareholders.

To the extent you hold on to the Triple Flag shares received, then the transaction will most likely be tax deferred for U.S. shareholders until the shares are sold. I also recommend holding the “newco.” TFPM will make an investment of $10 million into “newco” to own 11% of the company, and has entered into a generative alliance with Orogen covering much of the Western U.S., which TFPM will fund. Triple Flag shares have actually moved up (marginally) last Tuesday, so to me, Orogen is still a purchase.

At $1.80, most of your purchase price will be returned in the sale, giving a very low valuation to the spin go. Shareholders may opt to receive cash or shares, subject to the totals paid by TFPM being 50/50. The Orogen shareholder vote is expected in late 2025, with closing sometime in the third quarter.

There is a possibility of another company making a higher bid, particularly if a company believes that they will not win any bidding for Altius Minerals Corp.’s (ALS:TSX) larger Silicon royalty. Losers of that process may be prepared to pay up for the Orogen royalty. Once the transaction is complete, there will likely be some selling of the “newco” by shareholders who purchased Orogen solely for the Silicon sale. We shall be very interested in acquiring more if the price is right.
