Triple Flag to buy peer Maverix Metals in $600m deal
Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp said on Thursday it would buy smaller peer Maverix Metals in a deal valued at $606-million to cement its position as the fourth-largest senior streaming and royalty company globally.
The company said it expects the deal to add to its net asset value as well as cash flow per share.
Streaming and royalty firms provide financing for exploration and development to precious metals producers in return for a cut in any future output.
Maverix stockholders may elect to receive either $3.92 in cash or 0.360 of a Triple Flag share for each share held, implying a premium of 10% to Maverix last close.
The deal is expected to be completed in January 2023, after which Triple Flag and Maverix shareholders would own about 77% and 23%, respectively, of the combined company.
The agreement allows Triple Flag to match superior proposals and a $24-million termination fee.
The combined company will continue as Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp, headquartered in Toronto, with Geoff Burns, founder and chair of Maverix, and another nominee of Maverix expected to join the Triple Flag board.
US-listed shares of Maverix rose 3.6% in premarket trade, while Triple Flag stock was flat.
