Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp reported its second quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2025. The company experienced a decline in royalty revenue compared to the same quarter in the previous year, influenced by lower iron ore prices and pellet premiums. However, sales volumes saw an increase compared to the first quarter of 2025. Net income and adjusted cash flow per share also reflected mixed performance trends.
Royalty Revenue Declines Year-over-Year
Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp's royalty revenue for Q2 2025 was $46.2 million, marking a 12% decrease compared to Q2 2024. This decline is attributed to lower iron ore prices and reduced pellet premiums, despite a 30% increase from Q1 2025.
Net Income Per Share Decreases
Net income per share for the second quarter of 2025 stood at $0.42, representing a 46% decrease from the same period in 2024. However, there was a 27% increase compared to the first quarter of 2025.
Adjusted Cash Flow Per Share Drops
The adjusted cash flow per share for Q2 2025 was $0.40, down 64% from Q2 2024 but 30% higher than Q1 2025. Notably, LIORC did not receive any dividend from IOC in this quarter.
Increase in Sales Tonnage
IOC's total iron ore sales tonnage for Q2 2025 increased by 10% year-over-year and by 43% from Q1 2025. This rise was driven by higher availability of inventory and improved vessel timing.
No Dividend Issued This Quarter
In the second quarter of 2025, LIORC did not receive a dividend from IOC, contrasting with the $41.5 million dividend received in Q2 2024.
Outlook and Market Conditions
The company maintains its 2025 saleable production guidance between 16.5 million to 19.4 million tonnes. However, the outlook for iron ore prices remains challenging due to increased global supply and softened steel demand, particularly from China.
