FNV: TSX | NYSE 83 TCFD Disclosure Climate-Related Risks As we have a small workforce operating solely within office environments, we are not directly exposed to most climate-related risks that mining and energy operators face. Notwithstanding, the climate-related risks of the operators of the projects in which we hold royalty and stream interests can pass through to us. For example, our operators’ risks may include occurrences of any climate-related incidents, trends or developments that have the potential to adversely impact (1) production at an operation and, by extension, royalty or stream payments or deliveries to our company, and/or (2) the reputation of an operator and, in turn, of our company as we have invested in the operator and/or impacted operation. Additionally, risks related to changes in the market price of commodities that underlie our royalty and stream interests, which changes may be driven by climate-related events, trends or sentiments, can impact our revenues. As demonstrated in Resilience of our Portfolio below and on page 35 of this ESG Report, exposure to these risks is substantially mitigated for our company. Notably, of the four major categories of financial impact set out by the TCFD (Revenues, Expenditures, Assets and Liabilities, and Capital and Financing)*, the impacts of climate-related risks may affect our Revenues (Income Statement) and our Assets (Balance Sheet) but are unlikely to increase our Expenditures (Income Statement) or Liabilities (Balance Sheet) and are unlikely to materially adversely impact our access to Capital and Financing (Balance Sheet). Climate Strategy * “Implementing the Recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures”, Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (June 2017). The following discussion describes our operators’ climate-related risks, the potential financial impact for our operators and their corresponding financial impact to our company. Given the breadth and diversity of our investment portfolio and due to the fact that most of our royalty and stream investments are perpetual or have long durations, we have exposure to each of the risks below over short, medium and long term horizons and such risks are identified and are part of our climate-related strategy and decision making, as appropriate. Certain acute physical risks will typically involve a short-term impact (less than 1 year), chronic physical risks, regulatory and legal risks, market risks and reputational risks can lead to medium-term (1 to 5 years) and long-term (5 years+) impacts. In 2022, we worked with Critical Resource to expand upon last year’s disclosure relating to climate-related risks impacting our operators and our company. In particular, Critical Resource has provided assessments, which are summarized in the tables below, of: • Physical climate risks specific to certain jurisdictions where we have a high concentration of assets and/or material assets. In conducting its geographic physical risk assessment for Ontario, Nevada, Panama, Chile and Peru, Critical Resource applied SSP1-2.6 (low emissions scenario) and SSP5-8.5 (high emissions scenario) for 2030 and 2050 and relied on publicly available information and projections, including the World Bank’s Climate Change Knowledge Portal. The assessment is high level in nature (e.g. physical risks applying generally across the country or applicable jurisdiction and not necessarily relating to any of Franco-Nevada’s particular assets) and does not address any additional risks or mitigating factors (e.g. topographical, sunk capital costs to build a mine, relative contribution of mine to a country’s GDP, etc.) specific to Franco-Nevada’s assets in these jurisdictions. • Socio-political, regulatory and legal risks, market risks and reputational risks that might impact key commodities in our commodity mix (gold, silver, PGMs, iron ore, energy (oil, gas, NGL) and nickel) in the transition to a low-carbon economy.
