CEO Commentary



David Harquail, President and CEO, made the following comments in
relation to the third quarter 2011 results:



"Franco-Nevada's royalty and stream business model continues to prove
itself. Third quarter results were another record as Franco-Nevada
benefitted from higher average precious metal prices and contributions
from both organic growth and new acquisitions. Our revenues are now
91% from precious metals and 77% from North American assets. Despite
likely weaker commodity prices in the fourth quarter and challenges
facing some of our streams, on balance the outlook is promising across
the broader portfolio. We are maintaining our previous guidance for
2011 revenues in the range of $375 to $400 million compared to $227
million
on the same basis in 2010."



"This is proving to be a record year for growing the portfolio. In the
first half, we added five streams from the acquisition of Gold Wheaton
and new gold royalties at Perseus' Edikan project and Osisko's Canadian
Malartic project. In the third quarter, we closed a gold royalty
acquisition on Rubicon's Phoenix project and announced the proposed
acquisition of Lumina Royalty Corp. which will add four new copper
royalties to the portfolio. When the Lumina transaction closes later
in the fourth quarter, Franco-Nevada expects to count 212 mineral
assets of which 41 are classified as producing. Franco-Nevada has a
solid pipeline of opportunities and at the end of the third quarter had
over $420 million in working capital, another $175 million available in
credit and no debt."



"Franco-Nevada began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on September
8
th. We are very pleased with the reception the shares are receiving in
the US as a growth and dividend paying alternative to the gold ETF.
Our overall trading liquidity has increased by approximately 25% since
the listing."



Portfolio Highlights



Details of the individual revenue contributions by asset and commodity
can be found in our Management's Discussion and Analysis available on
our website. Asset details are also available on our website and in
our Annual Information Form and Form 40-F.



New Royalty Transactions




  • Phoenix is a 2.0% gross royalty payable on that part of Rubicon Minerals
    Corporation's Phoenix gold project lying primarily beneath the waters
    of Red Lake, Ontario. Rubicon has an option to repurchase a 0.5% gross
    royalty from the Company. Franco-Nevada's acquisition cost was
    approximately $23.7 million payable by the issuance of 550,000 common
    shares of the Company. Rubicon has announced a C$55 million
    development and exploration program for shaft deepening, underground
    development, drilling and long lead item orders and is targeting
    potential production in Q4 2013.


  • Lumina Royalty Corp is an unlisted company that owns royalties on four development stage
    copper projects in Chile and Argentina. On September 22nd, Franco-Nevada announced it had entered into an arrangement agreement
    to acquire Lumina Royalty Corp. for $60 million in Franco-Nevada common
    shares and $6 million in listed Franco-Nevada warrants. Lumina's assets
    include:



    • 1.5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty on the Relincho project in
      Chile. Teck Resources has disclosed a pre-feasibility study which
      indicates a possible production start in 2017 with 195,000 tonnes and
      180,000 tonnes of contained copper in concentrates produced on average
      for the first five years and over the 22 year life of mine,
      respectively.


    • 1.08% NSR royalty on the Taca Taca project in Salta Province, Argentina
      operated by Lumina Copper Corp.


    • A fixed rate copper royalty and a 1.5% NSR gold royalty on Coro Mining
      Corp.'s San Jorge project located in Mendoza Province, Argentina.
      There are advance payments associated with this royalty.


    • 2% NSR royalty on open pit mining and a 1% NSR royalty on underground
      mining on a portion of Los Andes Copper Limited's Vizcachitas project
      located in Chile.




Producing Assets




  • Palmarejo, operated by Coeur d'Alene Mines Corporation ("Coeur"), generated $26.1
    million
    in revenue in the third quarter. Coeur has reported that it
    continues to drill at the Guadalupe deposit to expand the current
    resource and has commenced a surface trenching program to define the
    known vein structures at La Patria.


  • Sudbury Basin includes streams on the precious metals from the Levack, McCreedy and
    Podolsky mines operated by Quadra FNX Mining Ltd. ("Quadra FNX"). In
    the third quarter, the three mines generated $15.2 million in revenues,
    split $10.3 million from PGMs and $4.9 million from gold. On October
    14
    th, Quadra FNX announced that terms had been reached to utilize Xstrata
    Nickel's neighbouring Craig shaft to access the Morrison deposit at the
    Levack mine which Quadra FNX expects will improve operational
    flexibility and allow the potential for higher production going
    forward. Offsetting this, Quadra FNX is currently focusing mining on
    nickel ores at McCreedy which will defer the mining of precious metal
    ores.


  • Goldstrike revenue of $14.4 million in the third quarter was split between the net
    profits interest ("NPI") of $8.8 million and the NSR royalty of $5.6
    million
    . Barrick reported that during the quarter the Goldstrike
    operation produced a total of 0.26 million ounces of gold with total
    cash costs of $516 per ounce as it transitioned to a higher waste
    stripping phase in the second half of 2011.


  • MWS' gold stream payments amounted to $11.7 million to Franco-Nevada in the third quarter. It also
    successfully concluded the technical completion test required under the
    gold stream agreement. In September, First Uranium announced that it
    had received a letter from the South African Minister of Mineral
    Resources purporting to "withdraw" the new order mining right for the
    MWS operations. First Uranium continues to operate MWS while working
    with the Minister to rectify the issue.


  • Ezulwini provided $8.1 million in revenues to Franco-Nevada in the third quarter
    delivering the quarterly instalment of the minimum royalty provision
    under the gold stream agreement.


  • Stillwater benefited from strong PGM prices in the quarter and generated $6.1
    million
    in revenue. Realized PGM prices are expected to be weaker in
    the fourth quarter based on current commodity price levels.


  • Oil & Gas assets delivered $8.5 million of revenue in the quarter. Production
    volumes in southeast Saskatchewan have been hampered by the impact of
    spring floods which has also delayed planned development.



New and Future Revenues




  • Tasiast cumulative gold production surpassed the 600,000 ounce threshold during
    third quarter triggering the first partial quarterly payment of $1.5
    million
    to Franco-Nevada. This royalty is expected to become an
    important contributor to the Company's revenues as Kinross Gold has
    announced expansion plans for the operation based on a 16 year mine
    life and envisions increasing production to 1.5 million gold equivalent
    ounces per annum. Kinross has stated that start up of the expansion is
    targeted for mid 2014. This would represent approximately 30,000 ounces
    of gold annually to Franco-Nevada from its 2% revenue royalty.


  • Detour Gold announced that it has raised additional capital funding during the
    quarter so that the C$1.3 billion construction of its large gold
    project is now fully financed with completion expected by early 2013.
    In addition, Detour Gold announced an agreement to acquire the
    neighbouring Trade Winds Ventures Block A project which is contiguous
    to the west of the Detour Lake open pit. Franco-Nevada has a 2%
    revenue royalty on both projects and expects that the combination
    increases the likelihood for further reserve additions and an expansion
    of the project. Detour has stated that when fully ramped up, gold
    production is expected to average 649,000 ounces per year with
    potential to increase throughput.


  • Edikan (formerly the Central Ashanti Gold Project) is a new royalty that was
    acquired in the second quarter of 2011. Perseus Mining Limited
    announced the pouring of its first gold in August and reported progress
    on both the mine commissioning and on additional exploration potential
    on the property. Franco-Nevada expects to receive initial revenues from
    this asset in the fourth quarter of 2011. Perseus recently completed
    an updated life of mine plan which anticipates average annual gold
    production of 265,000 ounces per year from Edikan.


  • Canadian Malartic is a new royalty that was acquired early in the third quarter of 2011
    consisting of a 1.5% gross overriding metal royalty on seven mining
    claims encompassing a portion of Osisko's Canadian Malartic project.
    Osisko announced that it has recently commenced production at the
    project with some mining occurring on the royalty claims that cover a
    portion of the planned pit. Franco-Nevada expects to report revenue
    from this asset in the fourth quarter of 2011 with more significant
    revenues occurring in 2012. At full production, Osisko estimates that
    Canadian Malartic will average 574,000 ounces per year.


  • The Ity royalty is an approximate 1% NSR on a mine operated by La Mancha
    Resources in the Cote d'Ivoire which began its first royalty payments
    to Franco-Nevada during the third quarter. La Mancha expects that the
    Ity mine will produce approximately 37,000 ounces per year.


  • South Kalgoolie is operated by Alacer Gold and Franco-Nevada has a 1.75% NSR on the
    portion of the project within Location 50. On October 24th, Alacer announced the first stage of the potential doubling of
    production to 2.5Mtpa from 1.2Mtpa through a combination of a new
    processing facility, an expanded open pit and underground mining.


  • NPIs - With the continued strong gold price environment and increased
    margins from our operating partners, several of our NPIs are reaching
    payout of their historical capital costs. Franco-Nevada expects
    Musselwhite (operated by Goldcorp) and Macassa (operated by Kirkland
    Lake Gold) to provide revenue to Franco-Nevada in the fourth quarter.
    The Hemlo NPI (operated by Barrick) is expected to contribute in late
    2012.


  • Rosemont's Environmental Impact Statement has entered the public review process in
    which Franco-Nevada has a 1.5% revenue royalty on all metals. At the
    same time, Augusta Resource Corporation reports that an air permit has
    been denied which it expects to challenge. Augusta expects average
    annual production over its 21 year life to be 220 Mlbs of copper, 4.7
    Mlbs of molybdenum and 2.4 Moz of silver.


  • Taseko's New Prosperity revised project description has been formally accepted by the Canadian
    Environment Assessment Agency ("CEAA"). On November 7, the CEAA
    announced that the project is to undergo an environmental assessment by
    the Federal review panel with a final report submitted to the Federal
    Ministry of the Environment within one year. New Prosperity is the
    largest undeveloped copper-gold deposit in Canada. Under the terms of
    a stream agreement, Franco-Nevada will purchase a 22% gold stream
    interest by funding $350M in capital costs once the project is fully
    permitted and financed. Gold production has been estimated by Taseko
    to be an average of 300,000 ounces per year for the first five years.


  • Agi Dagi is being advanced by Alamos Gold in Turkey. Franco-Nevada has a 2%
    revenue royalty on Agi Dagi which also covers most of the new Camyurt
    discovery nearby. An updated mineral resource was completed in the
    third quarter and EIA approval process has commenced. Alamos expects
    to complete a pre-feasibility study in Q2 2012 incorporating additional
    resources.



Financial Results Discussion



Revenues



Revenue was $113.3 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared with
$55.0 million for the third quarter of 2010. The increase in revenue
was mostly attributable to assets acquired in the Gold Wheaton
transaction which contributed $35.0 million to the Company's third
quarter revenue. In addition, revenue from Palmarejo and Stillwater was
higher due to increases in average commodity prices and production
levels at these mines. Revenue from Gold Quarry was also higher in the
quarter compared to the third quarter of 2010 as the Company now
recognizes a portion of the minimum ounce true-up in each quarter in
2011 whereas the minimum ounce true-up was recognized in the fourth
quarter in previous years.



Revenue for the third quarter of 2011 was earned 91% from precious metal
assets (77% gold and 14% PGMs), 8% from oil and gas (5% oil and 3% gas)
and 1% from other minerals. Geographically, 77% of revenue came from
North America (27% US, 25% Canada and 25% Mexico), Africa (19%),
Australia (3%) and Other (1%). The components of revenue were earned as
follows: 35% revenue-based, 54% streams, 8% profit-based, 2% working
interests and 1% other.



Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $292.7 million,
an increase of 92%, over $152.3 million in revenue for the nine months
ended September 30, 2010. Increases were driven by assets acquired in
the Gold Wheaton transaction, higher average commodity prices and
organic growth within the portfolio.



Costs and expenses



Costs of sales include the costs of gold equivalent ounces purchased
under stream agreements, oil & gas production taxes, operating costs on
oil & gas working interests and net proceeds taxes on mineral
interests. Costs of sales for the third quarter of 2011 were $16.2
million
which included $13.7 million for the cost of stream ounces.
Depletion and depreciation were $34.7 million, an increase of 76%, over
$19.7 million recorded in the third quarter of 2010. Depletion was
higher due to the addition of the Gold Wheaton assets, higher
production at Gold Quarry, Palmarejo and Stillwater partially offset by
lower depletion on Goldstrike due to lower production levels.



For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, costs of sales were $45.9
million
compared to $21.3 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2010
. Depletion and depreciation of $97.4 million and $61.8 million
were recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively. The increase was attributable in part to the streams
acquired in the Gold Wheaton acquisition and Palmarejo, Gold Quarry and
Stillwater, due to higher production levels. The increase was partially
offset by lower depletion on Goldstrike and oil & gas assets due to
lower production.



As part of the Gold Wheaton acquisition, the Company recorded a $13.5
million
mark-to-market gain offset by $7.8 million in transaction costs
in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Under IFRS, transaction
costs associated with business combinations are expensed rather than
capitalized as was done under Canadian GAAP. In addition, the Company
recorded $6.2 million in gains on the sale of certain investments
during the three months ended September 30, 2011.



Income tax expense was $19.5 million and $41.4 million for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.



Net Income



Net income for the third quarter of 2011 was $44.1 million, or $0.35 per
share, and Adjusted Net Income(1) for the third quarter was $39.8 million, or $0.31 per share.



EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA were $97.2 million, or $0.76 per share, and
$92.2 million, or $0.73 per share, respectively, for the three months
ended September 30, 2011. Our definitions of these non-IFRS financial
measures and the reconciliations to IFRS measures can be found in the
Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for Q3 2011 and at the
end of this press release.



Balance Sheet and Capital Structure



As at September 30, 2011, Franco-Nevada had a strong financial position
with no debt or hedges, working capital of $420.3 million, and
investments valued at $62.8 million, of which $33.0 million are held in
publicly traded equity investments. In addition, the Company has an
undrawn $175 million unsecured revolving term credit facility
available.



As at November 8, 2011, the Company had outstanding 127.7 million
shares, 17.6 million warrants (including 6.1 million assumed from the
acquisition of Gold Wheaton), 2.5 million stock options, 0.4 million
other and a special warrant exerciseable into 2 million warrants.

dividend of $0.04 per share compared to C$0.025 per share in the prior
months. Today, the Board of Directors of Franco-Nevada declared the
monthly dividends for January, February and March 2012. The January

This press release uses the terms "indicated resources" and "inferred
resources". We advise U.S. investors that while these terms are
recognized and required by Canadian regulations, they are not
recognized by the SEC. "Inferred resources" have a great amount of
uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their
economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any
part of an "inferred" or "indicated resource" will ever be upgraded to
a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of "inferred
resources" may not form the basis of a feasibility study or
prefeasibility studies, except in rare cases. The SEC normally only
permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute
"reserves" as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit
measures.
U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of an
indicated or inferred resource exists or is economically or legally
mineable.
