(NASDAQ:RGLD; TSX:RGL) (together with its subsidiaries, “Royal Gold” or the “Company”) has announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary RGLD Gold AG sold approximately 52,500 gold ounces and 208,900 silver ounces related to its streaming agreements during its fiscal 2016 fourth-quarter ended June 30, 2016.


    The Company had 19,800 gold ounces and 323,700 silver ounces in inventory at June 30, 2016. As anticipated, stream segment sales were relatively flat and inventory increased slightly as compared to the prior quarter.

    RGLD Gold AG’s average realised gold price was $1,257 per ounce sold, compared to $1,168 per ounce sold in the prior quarter, while cost of sales was approximately $344 per gold equivalent ounce for the fourth-quarter, compared to $330 per gold equivalent ounce in the prior quarter, using the quarterly average silver-gold ratio of approximately 75 to 1.

    Royal Gold said in a statement that “cost of sales is specific to our stream agreements and is the result of the Company’s purchase of gold or silver for cash payments at a set contractual price, or a percentage of the prevailing market price of gold or silver when purchased”.
