Overview
, its history, and its business operations. Franco-Nevada Corporation is a gold-focused royalty and stream company with assets located in some of the worldβs most prolific gold mining regions. The company was founded in 1983 and is headquartered in Toronto, Canada. History: Franco-Nevada was originally founded as Franco Nevada Mining Corporation Ltd. in 1983 by Pierre Lassonde and Seymour Schulich. The company was created as a spin-out of Newmont Mining Corporationβs Canadian subsidiary, and its initial focus was on acquiring gold royalties on properties in Nevada. In 2002, Franco-Nevada was acquired by Newmont Mining Corporation, but in 2007 Lassonde and Schulich bought back the company and once again made it a public company under the name Franco-Nevada Corporation. Business Operations: Franco-Nevadaβs business model involves acquiring royalties and streams on existing mine operations as well as financing new mine developments. Royalties are typically a percentage of the mineβs revenue, while streams are a percentage of the mineβs production at a fixed price. By using this model, Franco-Nevada is able to generate cash flow and profits without the risks and costs associated with operating a mine. The company has a diverse portfolio of assets, with a focus on gold, but also including other precious and base metals, oil and gas, and other natural resources. Its assets are located all over the world, with a focus on stable jurisdictions such as North America, Australia, and Europe. In addition to its royalty and stream investments, Franco-Nevada also has a small portfolio of oil and gas assets, which came from the 2016 acquisition of the companyβs spin-off, Franco-Nevada Energy Corporation. Today, Franco-Nevada is the leading gold-focused royalty and stream company, with a market capitalization of over $26 billion. Its success and growth have made it a top choice for investors looking for exposure to the precious metals industry.
