Royal Canadian Mint Reports Profits and Performance for 2020

OTTAWA, ON, April 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The Royal Canadian Mint (the “Mint”) is pleased to announce its financial results for 2020 that provide insight into our activities, the markets influencing our businesses and our expectations for the next 12 months.  

“In 2020, employees of the Royal Canadian Mint demonstrated their ability to innovate and deliver great products in a very challenging operating environment” said Marie Lemay, President and CEO of the Royal Canadian Mint. “Their hard work contributed to the Mint’s success. Employees pivoted quickly in the face of disruption allowing the Mint to generate strong profits.”   

“The Mint continues to respond to the unprecedented situation with COVID-19 in a proactive way that prioritizes the health and safety of our employees. We have adapted our production to be able to continue delivering critical services in support of the essential mining and financial sectors, while adhering to strict new protocols to ensure our work environment is a safe one.” 

“One very special initiative in 2020 was our Recognition Medal, created to recognize frontline workers while raising money for the Breakfast Club of Canada’s COVID-19 Emergency Fund. Employees donated their time to this project and thanks to their generosity and the contrinutions of thousands of Canadians, the Mint was able to make a $400,000 donation to the Breakfast Club in 2020.”
