LABRADOR IRON ORE ROYALTY CORPORATION - RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
TORONTO, Aug. 4, 2022 /CNW/ - Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation ("LIORC"), (TSX: LIF) announced today its operation and cash flow results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
In the second quarter of 2022, LIORC's financial results were negatively affected by lower iron ore prices, partially offset by higher pellet premiums and higher volumes of pellets and concentrate for sale ("CFS") sales. Royalty revenue for the second quarter of 2022 amounted to $65.9 million compared to $78.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. Equity earnings from Iron Ore Company of Canada ("IOC") were $47.2 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $66.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. Net income per share for the second quarter of 2022 was $1.23 per share, which was a 29% decrease over the same period in 2021. The adjusted cash flow per share for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.88 per share, which was 52% lower than in the same period in 2021, as a result of lower royalty revenues and because LIORC received a dividend from IOC in the amount of $19.6 million from IOC in the second quarter of 2022, compared to a dividend from IOC in the amount of $74.4 million in the second quarter of 2021.
In the second quarter of 2022, iron ore prices declined from the record levels experienced in 2021, predominantly as a result of lower steel production. According to the World Steel Association, global crude steel production decreased 5% in the second quarter of 2022 over the second quarter of 2021, as supply chain disruptions impacted the demand for steel and higher energy prices negatively affected steel producer margins. In China, which accounts for over 70% of all seaborne iron ore demand, crude steel production decreased 4% in the second quarter of 2022 over the second quarter of 2021, due to concerns about the country's property construction and infrastructure sectors.
IOC sells CFS based on the Platts index for 65% Fe, CFR China ("65% Fe index"). All references to tonnes and per tonne prices in this report refer to wet metric tonnes, other than references to Platts quoted pricing, which refer to dry metric tonnes. Historically, IOC's wet ore contains approximately 3% less ore per equivalent volume than dry ore. In the second quarter of 2022, the 65% Fe index averaged US$160 per tonne, a 31% decrease over the average of US$233 per tonne in the second quarter of 2021, and a 6% decrease over the average of US$170 in the first quarter of 2022. The monthly Atlantic Blast Furnace 65% Fe pellet premium index as quoted by Platts (the "pellet premium") averaged US$81 per tonne in the second quarter of 2022, up 24% from an average of US$65 in the same quarter of 2021.
Rio Tinto has disclosed that the average realised price achieved for IOC pellets, FOB Sept-Îles, in the second quarter of 2022 was US$206 per tonne, compared to US$247 per tonne in the same quarter of 2021. Based on sales as reported for the LIORC Royalty, the overall average price realized by IOC for CFS and pellets, FOB Sept-Îles, was approximately US$168 per tonne in the second quarter of 2022, compared to approximately US$222 per tonne in the second quarter of 2021 and US$173 per tonne in the first quarter of 2022.
IOC concentrate production of 5.0 million tonnes in the second quarter of 2022 was 5% higher than the same quarter of 2021 and 15% higher than in the first quarter of 2022, despite the negative impact of the planned 7-day annual maintenance shutdown which was successfully completed in June (vs September in 2021). While crushed ore (feed to the concentrator) in the second quarter of 2022 was comparable to the second quarter of 2021, IOC benefited from a higher weight yield, as a greater percentage of ore came from the Moss pit.
The IOC saleable production (CFS plus pellets) of 4.4 million tonnes in the second quarter of 2022 was 4% lower than the same period in 2021, due to a negative stockpile survey adjustment and lower pellet recovery rates during the quarter. Saleable production in the second quarter of 2022 was also negatively impacted by the annual maintenance shutdown in June referred to above. The IOC saleable production in the second quarter of 2022 was 8% higher than the first quarter of 2022.
Pellet production in the second quarter of 2022 of 2.2 million tonnes was 16% lower than the corresponding quarter in 2021 and 8% lower than the first quarter of 2022. Pellet production in the second quarter of 2022 was negatively impacted by a feed system conveyor failure and lower than planned filter and balling rates due to ongoing reliability challenges, as well as the June shutdown and negative stockpile survey adjustment referred to above. In the second quarter of 2022, CFS production of 2.2 million tonnes was 11% higher than the same quarter last year and 33% higher than the first quarter of 2022, due to increased concentrate production and lower pellet production.
Total iron ore sales tonnage by IOC (CFS plus pellets) of 4.3 million tonnes in the second quarter of 2022 was 5% higher than the total sales tonnage for the same period in 2021 and 20% higher than the first quarter of 2022. Sales tonnage in the second quarter of 2021 was negatively impacted by the lack of availability of reclaimers at the port facility in Sept-Îles. Sales tonnage in the first quarter of 2022 was negatively impacted by equipment failures and lower product availability. Pellet sales tonnage in the second quarter of 2022 was 9% higher than the same period in 2021 and 1% higher than the first quarter of 2022. CFS sales tonnage was consistent with the same quarter last year and 59% higher than the first quarter of 2022.
Rio Tinto's 2022 guidance for IOC's saleable production (CFS plus pellets) remains at 17.0 million to 18.7 million tonnes. This compares to 16.6 million tonnes of saleable production in 2021. As reported in the 2021 Annual Report, IOC has ambitious capital expenditure plans to continue renewing the asset infrastructure and to improve the production results at IOC. These initiatives will be of benefit to LIORC as both an equity holder and a royalty holder. Certain changes in IOC's capital expenditures program, including the postponement of the dumper cage replacement at Sept-Îles to 2023, has resulted in IOC revising its 2022 capital expenditure forecast from $606 million to $515 million.
There continues to be a number of adverse issues affecting the outlook for the seaborne iron ore market. High inflation and global recession concerns have negatively impacted the demand outlook for steel. As a result, steel production has fallen. At the same time steel inventories have increased which could further negatively impact future steel production. Steel producer margins have also decreased as a result of lower demand for steel and higher energy prices. This may cause some producers to substitute higher quality iron ore with less expensive low quality iron ore, which could reduce demand for the high quality concentrate and pellets that IOC produces.
The current economic outlook is having a significant negative impact on the price of seaborne iron. In July 2022, the average price of the 65% Fe index was US$120 per tonne, or 25% lower than the average of the 65% Fe index for the second quarter of 2022. So far the pellet premiums have remained strong. The pellet premium for July was US$87 per tonne compared to the average of US$81 per tonne in the second quarter of 2022. For context, in 2019 the 65% Fe index and the pellet premium averaged US$104 and US$57, respectively. In 2019, IOC sold 17.1 million tonnes of pellets and CFS and LIORC generated $3.25 of adjusted cash flow per share. As a result, we remain positive about LIORC's ability to continue to benefit from the current iron ore pricing environment through royalty revenues and expected future dividends from IOC.
LIORC has no debt and at June 30, 2022 had positive net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $26.2 million, which included the second quarter net royalty payment received from IOC on July 26, 2022 and the LIORC dividend paid to shareholders on the same day.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Directors of the Corporation,

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis section of Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corporation's ("LIORC" or the "Corporation") 2021 Annual Report, and the financial statements and notes contained therein and the June 30, 2022 interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
Overview of the Business
The Corporation's revenues are entirely dependent on the operations of IOC as its principal assets relate to the operations of IOC and its principal source of revenue is the 7% royalty it receives on all sales of iron ore products by IOC. In addition to the volume of iron ore sold, the Corporation's royalty revenue is affected by the price of iron ore and the Canadian – U.S. dollar exchange rate. The first quarter sales of IOC are traditionally adversely affected by the general winter operating conditions and are usually 15% – 20% of the annual volume, with the balance spread fairly evenly throughout the other three quarters. Because of the size of individual shipments, some quarters may be affected by the timing of the loading of ships that can be delayed from one quarter to the next.

The lower revenue, net income and equity earnings achieved in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 were mainly due to lower iron ore prices, partly offset by higher pellet premiums and sales of pellets. The second quarter of 2022 sales tonnage (pellets and CFS) were higher by 5% than the second quarter of 2021 predominantly due to the lack of availability of reclaimers during the second quarter of 2021, which limited the loading rate at the port facility in Sept-Îles. CFS sales tonnage was consistent with the same quarter last year and pellet sales tonnage was 9% higher than the same quarter last year. Pellet sales tonnage in the second quarter of 2021 was constrained due to the loading restrictions caused by the lack of reclaimer availability at the port.
However, the higher sales tonnage was more than offset by a decrease in the realized sales price of pellets and CFS, resulting in royalty income of $65.9 million for the quarter as compared to $78.8 million for the same period in 2021. Second quarter 2022 cash flow from operations was $41.1 million or $0.64 per share compared to $115.9 million or $1.81 per share for the same period in 2021. LIORC received an IOC dividend in the second quarter of 2022 in the amount of $19.6 million or $0.31 per share. Equity earnings from IOC amounted to $47.2 million or $0.74 per share in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $66.2 million or $1.03 per share for the same period in 2021.

IOC sells CFS based on the 65% Fe index. In the second quarter of 2022, the 65% Fe index averaged US$160 per tonne, a 31% decrease over the average of US$233 per tonne in the second quarter of 2021. Iron ore prices decreased, as lower global steel production reduced the demand for seaborne iron ore. The monthly pellet premium averaged US$81 per tonne in the second quarter of 2022, up 24% from an average of US$65 in the same quarter of 2021.
Based on sales as reported for the LIORC Royalty, the overall average price realized by IOC for CFS and pellets, FOB Sept-Îles, was approximately US$168 per tonne in the second quarter of 2022, compared to approximately US$222 per tonne in the second quarter of 2021 and US$173 per tonne in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in the average realized price FOB Sept-Îles in 2022 was a result of lower CFS prices and lower pellet prices (comprised of lower iron ore index pricing partially offset by higher pellet premiums).
For the Corporation, standardized cash flow is the same as cash flow from operating activities as recorded in the Corporation's cash flow statements as the Corporation does not incur capital expenditures or have any restrictions on dividends. Standardized cash flow per share was $0.64 for the quarter (2021 - $1.81).
The Corporation also reports "Adjusted cash flow" which is defined as cash flow from operating activities after adjustments for changes in amounts receivable, accounts payable and income taxes recoverable and payable. It is not a recognized measure under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The Directors believe that adjusted cash flow is a useful analytical measure as it better reflects cash available for dividends to shareholders.
The following reconciles standardized cash flow from operating activities to adjusted cash flow.

The Corporation had $22.5 million in cash as at June 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - $82.9 million) with total current assets of $98.3 million (December 31, 2021 - $132.6 million). The Corporation had working capital of $26.2 million as at June 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - $29.6 million). The Corporation's operating cash flow was $41.1 million and the dividend paid during the quarter was $32 million, resulting in cash balances increasing by $9.1 million during the second quarter of 2022. In June the Directors of the Corporation declared the second quarter dividend of $57.6 million that was paid on July 26, 2022.
Cash balances consist of deposits in Canadian dollars with Canadian chartered banks. Amounts receivable primarily consist of royalty payments from IOC. Royalty payments are received in U.S. dollars and converted to Canadian dollars on receipt, usually 25 days after the quarter end. The Corporation does not normally attempt to hedge this short-term foreign currency exposure.
Operating cash flow of the Corporation is sourced entirely from IOC through the Corporation's 7% royalty, 10 cents commission per tonne and dividends from its 15.10% equity interest in IOC. The Corporation normally pays cash dividends from its net income to the maximum extent possible, subject to the maintenance of appropriate levels of working capital.
The Corporation has a $30 million revolving credit facility with a term ending September 18, 2024 with provision for annual one-year extensions. No amount is currently drawn under this facility (2021 – nil) leaving $30.0 million available to provide for any capital required by IOC or requirements of the Corporation.
