NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited - Expressed in Thousands of Canadian Dollars, Except where indicated)

For the Period Ended September 30, 2021

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

EMX Royalty Corporation (the "Company" or "EMX"), together with its subsidiaries operates as a royalty and prospect generator engaged in the exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties. The Company's royalty and exploration portfolio mainly consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South America. The Company's common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V"), and the NYSE American under the symbol of "EMX" and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "6E9". The Company's head office is located at 501 - 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1X8.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets, discharge its liabilities and continue in operation for the following twelve months.

Some of the Company's activities for royalty generation are located in emerging nations and, consequently, may be subject to a higher level of risk compared to other developed countries. Operations, the status of mineral property rights and the recoverability of investments in emerging nations can be affected by changing economic, legal, regulatory and political situations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company's business or ability to raise capital or conduct royalty generation activities.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted, which is the functional currency of the parent company and its subsidiaries except as to Bullion Monarch Mining, Inc. ("BULM"), the holder of a royalty income stream, and its 50% interest in Minero Tercero SpA ("Tercero"), the holder of an investment in associated entity, both of whose functional currencies is the United States ("US") dollar.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of Compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC").

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss and fair value through other comprehensive income, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

Reclassifcation

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company's most recent annual financial statements, except as described below, and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Investments in Associated Entities

The Company accounts for its long-term investments in affiliated companies over which it has significant influence using the equity basis of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted to recognize the Company's share of earnings or losses and reduced by dividends received.

The Company assesses its equity investments for impairment if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the equity investment and that the event or events have an impact on the estimated future cash flow of the investment that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence of impairment of equity investments includes:

  • Significant financial difficulty of the associated companies;
  • Becoming probable that the associated companies will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or,
  • National or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults of the associated companies.

Critical Accounting Judgments and Significant Estimates and Uncertainties

The critical judgments and estimates applied in the preparation of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are consistent with those applied in the Company's December 31, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Policies

Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021. The Company has reviewed these updates and determined that many of these updates are not applicable or consequential to the Company and have been excluded from discussion within these significant accounting policies.

3. RESTRICTED CASH

Partner advances expected to be used within the following twelve months are included with current assets.

4. INVESTMENTS

On November 25, 2019 the Company entered into a loan agreement with Norden Crown Metals Corp. ("NCM") whereby the Company loaned $800 to NCM for one year. The loan carried an annual effective interest rate of 8.08% and included a loan fee equal to 5% of the loan amount ($40) payable on maturity. The Company had the option to elect to receive the loan fee in shares of NCM at not less than the market price of NCM common shares in accordance with TSX-V Policy. NCM granted security to EMX in connection with the loan consisting of: i) a pledge of the issued and outstanding shares of Iekelvare Minerals AB ("Iekelvare"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NCM; ii) a guarantee of the loan by Iekelvare; and iii) the obligation to transfer the Gumsberg License (or the issued and outstanding shares of Iekelvare) to the Company if the loan is in default.

In August 2020 the Company entered into an amended credit facility agreement with NCM. As part of the amendment, the Company received an aggregate 7,368,304 units of NCM and each unit consisted of one common share in the capital of NCM and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant being exercisable at a price of $0.11 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. In return for the units received, the parties agreed to reduce the principal amount of debt to $482 with interest accruing on the new principal from the date of the amended agreement at a rate of 0.65% per month, compounded monthly, as well as a six month extension of the maturity date to May 25, 2021.

Effective May 25, 2021, a second amendment was made to the credit facility granting NCM an additional 30 days for settlement to June 24, 2021 in exchange for a $30 extension fee added to the principal balance. On June 25, 2021, the Company received $550 as full settlement of the principal and interest outstanding.

For the Period Ended September 30, 2021

6. LOAN RECEIVABLE (Continued)

In July 2021, the Company entered in a loan administration agreement with Earlston Investments Corp. ("Earlston") who has entered into a separate loan agreement dated May 28, 2021 with Colorado Legacy Lands, LLC ("CLL"), as borrower to provide a bridge loan to CLL in the aggregate principal amount of US$4,000 to be funded by sub-participants of which included EMX. The bridge loan included a 12% interest rate per annum, compounded monthly and payable monthly. In consideration for the advance of the loan, CLL agreed to to pay Earlston a 4% or $160 bonus fee up front, and reimburse other deal related expenses.

Pursuant to the loan administration agreement, EMX agreed to fund US$2,000 of the bridge loan to CLL as a sub-participant. As such, EMX advanced the total of US$1,916 which was US$2,000 less its share of the bonus fee being US$80 and its share of expenses. As at September 30, 2021, the balance receivable was $2,542 (US$2,000) and the Company received or accrued $67 (US$53) in interest income and $105 (US$84) in bonus and other loan fees.

September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Colorado Legacy Lands, LLC $ 2,542 $ -
Norden Crown Metals Corp. - 500
Total $ 2,542 $ 500

7. INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATED ENTITIES

Caserones

In August 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire an effective 0.418% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") royalty on the operating Caserones mine in northern Chile for US$34,100 in cash. To purchase the Caserones Royalty and for purposes of distributing payments received from the royalty interest, the Company formed a 50%-50% partnership, Minera Tercero SpA, with Altus Strategies Plc (AIM: ALS; TSX Venture: ALTS; OTCQX: ALTUF) which is accounted for as a joint operation in accordance with IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements.

Tercero was used to purchase a 43% interest in Sociedad Legal Minera California Una de la Sierra Pena Negra ("SLM California") through a Share Purchase Agreement for US$68,200. Separately, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Sprott Private Resource Lending II (Collector), LP ("Sprott") (Note 13) to finance its portion of the purchase price. SLM California has a right to 67.5% of the 2.88% Caseronones NSR royalty. SLM California's sole purpose is to administer the company, pay Chilean taxes and distribute its royalty proceeds to the shareholders, including Tercero. The 50% interest of the Company in Tercero provides EMX with right to the effective 0.418% royalty interest. As at September 30, 2021, the Company's investment in SLM California including its share of accumulated equity income and losses, and distributions was $42,917 (December 31, 2020 - $Nil).

The Company through Tercero does not control operational decisions and is eligible to appoint a director to serve position on the Board of SLM California. The Company's judgment is that it has significant influence, but not control and accordingly equity accounting is appropriate.

The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of the Company's Caserones investment:

September 30, 2021
Opening Balance $ -
Capital Investment 43,007
Company's share of net income of associated entity 1,119

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

The Company's accounting policy for impairment of non-current assets is to use the higher of the estimates of fair value less cost of disposal of these assets or value in use. The Company uses valuation techniques that require significant judgments and assumptions, including those with respect to future production levels, future metal prices and discount rates.

Non-current assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company continuously reviews the production of gold from the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block, expected long term gold prices to be realized, foreign exchange, and interest rates. For the period ended September 30, 2021, these assumptions remained reasonable and no revisions were considered necessary.

17. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company considers items included in shareholders' equity as capital. The Company's objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

As at September 30, 2021, the Company had working capital of $13,889 (December 31, 2020 - $68,995). The Company has continuing royalty income that will vary depending on royalty ounces received, the price of gold, and foreign exchange rates on US royalty payments. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares through public and/or private placements, sell assets, or return capital to shareholders.

Fair Value

The Company characterizes inputs used in determining fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

a)Level 1: inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

b)Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, market interest rates, and volatility factors, which can be observed or corroborated in the market place.

c)Level 3: inputs that are less observable, unobservable or where the observable data does not support the majority of the instruments' fair value.

As at September 30, 2021, there were no changes in the levels in comparison to December 31, 2020. Financial instruments measured at fair value on the statement of financial position are summarized in levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Assets Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Investments $ 11,757 $ 3,989 $ - $ 15,746
Warrants - 396 - 396
Strategic Investments - 226 - 226
Total $ 11,757 $ 4,611 $ - $ 16,368

The carrying value of trade and settlement receivables and other assets, loans receivable, advances from joint venture partners and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company holds warrants exercisable into common shares of public companies. The warrants do not trade on an exchange and are restricted in their transfer. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model using observable market information and thereby classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, market risk, liquidity risk and currency risk.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk by holding cash and cash equivalents and receivables. This risk is minimized by holding a significant portion of the funds in Canadian banks. The Company's exposure with respect to its receivables is primarily related to royalty streams, recovery of project and royalty generation costs, and the sale of assets.

For the Period Ended September 30, 2021

17. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates. Management believes the interest rate risk is low given interest rates on promissory notes and loans including the Sprott facility (Note 13) are fixed and the current low global interest rate environment. Fluctuation in market rates is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's operations due to the short term to maturity and no penalty cashable feature of its cash equivalents.

Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values of its publicly traded marketable securities and other company investments. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Based on the September 30, 2021portfolio values, a 10% increase or decrease in effective market values would increase or decrease net shareholders' equity by approximately $1,637.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital to ensure the Company's expenditures will not exceed available resources.

Commodity Risk

The Company's royalty revenues are derived from a royalty interest and are based on the extraction and sale of precious and base minerals and metals. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of metals discovered. Metal prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company's royalty interests cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in mineral prices.

Currency Risk

Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The Company operates in Canada, Turkey, Sweden, Australia, Norway, Finland, Chile, and the U.S.A. The Company funds cash calls to its subsidiary companies outside of Canada in US dollars and a portion of its expenditures are also incurred in local currencies.

The exposure of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and advances from joint venture partners to foreign exchange risk as at September 30, 2021 was as follows:

Accounts US dollars
Cash and cash equivalents $ 33,198
Restricted cash 3,024
Trade receivables 738
Loan receivable 1,933
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (321 )
Advances from joint venture partners (2,212 )
Loan payable (42,592 )
Net exposure $ (6,231 )
Canadian dollar equivalent $ (7,920 )

17. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

The balances noted above reflect the US dollar balances held within the parent company and any wholly owned subsidiaries. Balances denominated in another currency other than the functional currency held in foreign operations are considered immaterial. Based on the above net exposure as at September 30, 2021, and assuming that all other variables remain constant, a 10% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would result in an increase/decrease of approximately $792 in the Company's pre-tax profit or loss.

18. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO CASH FLOWS

September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Cash $ 45,066 $ 50,745
Short-term deposits 1,669 1,957
$ 46,735 $ 52,702

Short term deposits are highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

g)Adjusted non-current assets and liabilities for $45 (2020 - $258) related to cumulative translation adjustments ("CTA"), of which $46 (2020 - gain of $309 ) relates to CTA loss on royalty interest, $Nil (2020 - $36) relates to a CTA loss on deferred tax assets, and $1 (2020 - loss of $15) relates to CTA gain in the net assets of a subsidiary with a functional currency different from the presentation currency.
