​ Cobre Panama The Company has two precious metal streams in reference to production from the Cobre Panama mine, operated by Minera Panama, S.A. (“MPSA”), a subsidiary of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (“First Quantum”). In November 2023, Cobre Panama was placed in preservation and safe management (“P&SM”). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company assessed the Cobre Panama CGU for indicators of impairment. The Company carried out an impairment assessment to determine the recoverable amount of the Cobre Panama CGU. The recoverable amount, in accordance with IAS 36, was determined to be nil at December 31, 2023 and the Company recognized a full impairment loss of $1,169.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. This impairment was taken without prejudice to, or without attributing any specific value to, the legal remedies that may be obtained through any arbitration proceedings or otherwise. In the event that there is a change in the facts and circumstances surrounding the halting of production at Cobre Panama, and there is a resumption of precious metal stream deliveries to Franco-Nevada, an assessment of the recoverable amount of the Cobre Panama CGU will be performed at that time, which may lead to a reversal of part or all of the impairment loss that has been recognized. In addition, Franco-Nevada has provided notices of intent to commence international arbitration proceedings. Refer to Note 28, Contingencies, for further details. Energy Exploration Assets The Company was notified, pursuant to various royalty agreements, that the explorer/developer of certain of the Company’s Energy assets had abandoned tenements, concessions or ground which was subject to royalty rights held by the Company. As a result, the Company wrote-off the carrying value of the associated exploration assets to nil. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the total amount written off was $4.1 million.
