Heraldo de Madrid - Gleason & Sons Funds Electric Royalties' Acquisition of 0.75% Gross Revenue Royalty on the Producing Punitaqui Copper Project

The Punitaqui royalty transaction is expected to close in the coming days upon receiving TSX Venture Exchange approval.

"We are encouraged by Electric Royalties' ability to put together sensible, win-win deals as it bulks up its diversified royalty portfolio to what will now be 41 royalties and 29 optioned properties across its nine target metals," said Stefan Gleason, managing director of Gleason & Sons. "The Company has kept its overhead costs low relative to its peers and continues to execute on its business plan despite the tough environment for small cap equities in the resource space."

"We see upside in the Company's royalty portfolio, including potential near-term catalysts at several of the underlying projects in which it holds royalties, i.e. Seymour Lake (lithium), Mont Sorcier (vanadium), Battery Hill (manganese), and Zonia (copper) which are each making plans to complete feasibility or pre-feasibility studies in the coming year.

"Electric Royalties is not cash flow positive, but we understand management hopes to reach that important milestone in 2025 thanks to this new producing copper royalty acquisition plus its existing option portfolio income, advanced royalty payments, and up to four other royalties in the Company's portfolio that could enter (or re-enter) production in 2025," concluded Gleason.

Gleason & Sons is the family office of Stefan Gleason, a Charlotte-based entrepreneur who owns several privately held businesses in the United States, including Money Metals Exchange LLC. Money Metals is one of the largest precious metals dealers and depositories in North America with 750,000 customers and over C$1 billion in annual revenues. Gleason and his affiliates also own approximately 29% of the common stock of the Company, and Mr. Gleason sits on the Company's board of directors.

Gleason & Sons specifically targets equity and debt investments in mining royalty companies. Historically lower risk than direct investments in miners and explorers, the royalty model appears ideally positioned for an inflationary environment. Metals prices tend to rise, yet the royalty holder is insulated from the downside of higher operating, exploration, and capital costs at the underlying mines as well as other risks.

Electric Royalties' non-dilutive debt facility provided by Gleason & Sons for the Company's royalty acquisitions carries a limit of C$10 million and an interest rate at SOFR plus 7%, with a maximum interest rate of 12.5%. All interest payments are deferred until maturity in January 2028. With the C$3,050,000 advance, the debt facility is now fully drawn. At Gleason & Sons' option, the loan principal is convertible into common shares of the Company at no less than C$0.50 per share and upon approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. Additional details about the debt facility can be found in Gleason & Sons' prior press release dated February 20, 2024.
