total of 94,323 GEOs in 2023, representing record annual deliveries

Osisko recorded preliminary revenues from
royalties and streams of $65.2 million during the fourth quarter
and preliminary cost of sales (excluding depletion) of $4.0
million, resulting in a record quarterly cash margin2 of
approximately $61.2 million (or 94%).
For the full year 2023, preliminary revenues
from royalties and streams reached a record $247.3 million and
preliminary cost of sales (excluding depletion) are estimated at
$16.6 million, resulting in a record annual cash margin2 of
approximately $230.7 million (or 93%), a year-over-year increase of
14%.
As at December 31st, 2023, Osisko’s cash
position was approximately $67.7 million, following the sale of its
entire equity position in Osisko Mining Inc. and a subsequent
$136.0 million repayment on the Corporation's revolving credit
facility. The Corporation’s revolving credit facility was drawn by
approximately $191.9 million at the end of 2023, with an additional

The figures presented in this press release,
including revenues and costs of sales, have not been audited and
are subject to change. As the Corporation has not yet finished its
year-end procedures, the anticipated financial information
presented in this press release is preliminary, subject to year-end
adjustments, and may change materially.
(1) Gold Equivalent Ounces
GEOs are calculated on a quarterly basis and
include royalties and streams. Silver earned from royalty and
stream agreements are converted to gold equivalent ounces by
multiplying the silver ounces earned by the average silver price
for the period and dividing by the average gold price for the
period. Diamonds, other metals and cash royalties are converted
into gold equivalent ounces by dividing the associated revenue
earned by the average gold price for the period.

(2) Non-IFRS Measures
The Corporation has included certain performance
measures in this press release that do not have any standardized
meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS) including cash margin in dollars and in percentage. The
presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide
additional information and should not be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance
with IFRS. These measures are not necessarily indicative of
operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under
IFRS. As Osisko’s operations are primarily focused on precious
metals, the Corporation presents cash margins as it believes that
certain investors use this information, together with measures
determined in accordance with IFRS, to evaluate the Corporation’s
performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metals
mining industry who present results on a similar basis. However,
other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures
differently.
Cash margin (in dollars) represents revenues
less cost of sales (excluding depletion). Cash margin (in
percentage) represents the cash margin (in dollars) divided by
revenues.

Certain statements contained in this press
release may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995 and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of
applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking
statements are statements other than statements of historical fact,
that address, without limitation, future events, that financial
information may be subject to year-end adjustments and the
availability of the uncommitted accordion of the credit facility.
Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical
facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the words
“expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “intends”,
“estimates”, “projects”, “potential”, “scheduled” and similar
expressions or variations (including negative variations), or that
events or conditions “will”, “would”, “may”, “could” or “should”
occur. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors, most of which are beyond
the control of Osisko, and actual results may accordingly differ
materially from those in forward-looking statements. Such risk
factors include, without limitation, (i) with respect to properties
in which Osisko holds a royalty, stream or other interest; risks
related to: (a) the operators of the properties, (b) timely
development, permitting, construction, commencement of production,
ramp-up (including operating and technical challenges), (c)
differences in rate and timing of production from resource
estimates or production forecasts by operators, (d) differences in

resources, (e) the unfavorable outcome of any challenges or
litigation relating title, permit or license, (f) hazards and
uncertainty associated with the business of exploring, development
and mining including, but not limited to unusual or unexpected

pursued by Osisko, (b) the integration of acquired assets (c) the
determination of Osisko’s PFIC status or (d) that financial
information may be subject to year-end adjustments. The
forward-looking statements contained in this press release are
based upon assumptions management believes to be reasonable,
including, without limitation: the absence of significant change in
Osisko’s ongoing income and assets relating to determination of its
PFIC status, and the absence of any other factors that could cause
actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated,
estimated or intended and, with respect to properties in which
Osisko holds a royalty, stream or other interest, (i) the ongoing
operation of the properties by the owners or operators of such
properties in a manner consistent with past practice and with
public disclosure (including forecast of production), (ii) the
accuracy of public statements and disclosures made by the owners or
operators of such underlying properties (including expectations for
the development of underlying properties that are not yet in
production), (iii) no adverse development in respect of any
significant property, (iv) that statements and estimates relating
to mineral reserves and resources by owners and operators are
accurate and (v) the implementation of an adequate plan for
integration of acquired assets.
