Steps to reproduce:
  • $ convert rose: rose-xmp.tif
    $ exiftool -XMP:XResolution=150 rose-xmp.tif
    1 image files updated
    $ exiftool -XMP:XResolution rose-xmp.tif
    X Resolution : 150
    $ convert rose-xmp.tif rose-xmp.psd
    $ exiftool -XMP:XResolution rose-xmp.psd
The XMP profile is completely gone.

$ convert -version

Currently ImageMagick only supports writing profiles wrapped with a 8BIM header to PSD. Improving profile support is on our list of things to do.
