In a Dec. 19 research note, analyst Brian MacArthur reported that Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd. (OR:TSX; OR:NYSE) received about CA$159.4 million, or US$118.5 million, from Pretium Resources Inc. (PVG:TSX; PVG:NYSE) from its repurchase of Osisko's interest in the Brucejack mine's gold-silver stream. Following the sale, Osisko still has exposure to Brucejack via its offtake agreement for 50% gold.

MacArthur noted that Osisko intends to use the monies from Pretium to reduce its debt and buy shares. It will pay the CA$58 million that are outstanding under its revolving credit facility, after which about CA$30 million will remain due.

Also, the company will apply up to CA$100 million toward buying back shares in line with a previous announcement and "under its normal course issuer bid," the analyst explained.

MacArthur pointed out that such a share repurchase will not impact Osisko's 2018 production guidance, which remains at 77.5–82.5 thousand ounces of gold equivalent.

Raymond James has an Outperform rating on Osisko, whose share price is ~CA$11.77.
