The Metals Royalty Company (NASDAQ:TMCR) announced that its common shares have begun trading on the NASDAQ stock market, following the effectiveness of its registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The company stated that the listing was not conducted in any Canadian jurisdiction and did not involve an underwritten public offering. Stifel acted as financial advisor to Metals Royalty Company in connection with the NASDAQ listing.
Metals Royalty Company is focused on financing what it describes as America’s mineral security. The company plans to deploy capital to acquire royalties, streams and similar interests tied to critical metals and minerals across a broad range of development stages, from early‑stage exploration through production and mine expansion. Its strategy places a particular emphasis on assets located in the United States.
TMCR’s approach reflects its view that U.S. government policy objectives increasingly support the expansion of domestic extraction and processing of critical minerals, as well as the onshoring of industries reliant on those materials. The company aims to support mineral security and supply chain independence in North America, with an emphasis on sectors such as energy, defence, infrastructure, electrification and advanced manufacturing.
The company operates under a royalty‑based business model, which is intended to provide exposure to the long‑term cash flow potential and commodity price upside of large‑scale, strategically significant critical metals assets. TMCR believes this structure allows it to participate in resource value creation while reducing direct exposure to operational, development and environmental risks commonly associated with mine ownership and operation.
Metals Royalty Company’s current portfolio consists of a single royalty asset: a 2.0 per cent gross overriding royalty on the NORI polymetallic nodule project in the Clarion‑Clipperton Zone, which is controlled by TMC Metals Company Inc. The NORI deposit is believed to be one of the world’s largest potential undeveloped sources of nickel, copper, cobalt and manganese.
These four metals are considered important inputs for a range of applications, including energy systems, battery technologies, electrification, defence, infrastructure development and advanced manufacturing. TMCR has indicated that it views recent U.S. policy support for domestic critical mineral supply chains as a factor that could enhance the long‑term value of its royalty interest in the NORI project.
By focusing on royalties rather than direct project development, Metals Royalty Company aims to pursue growth opportunities across the full critical minerals value chain while aligning its investment strategy with broader efforts to strengthen North American mineral independence.
The company has not announced plans to issue additional equity in connection with the NASDAQ listing. Shares of Metals Royalty Company now trade publicly in the United States under the TMCR ticker as it advances its strategy centred on critical metals and mineral security.
The Metals Royalty Company Inc. engages in the acquisition and management of metals and mineral royalties, streams and other similar structured interests to support industry growth in North America.
The Metals Royalty Company stock (NASDAQ:TMCR) opened trading at US$12.38.
