Hudbay Announces Second Quarter 2023 Results

Toronto, Ontario, August 8, 2023 - Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay" or the "company") (TSX, NYSE:HBM) today released its second quarter 2023 financial results. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

Positioned for Strong Production Growth and Free Cash Flow Generation in the Second Half of 2023

  • Reaffirmed full year 2023 consolidated production, cash cost and sustaining cash cost guidance for Hudbay's Peru and Manitoba operations.
  • On June 20, 2023, Hudbay completed the acquisition of Copper Mountain Mining Corporation ("Copper Mountain"), creating a 150,000-tonnes-per-year copper producer with three long-life mines in tier-one jurisdictions and a world-class pipeline of organic copper growth projects.
    • Copper Mountain owns 75% of the Copper Mountain mine in British Columbia (the "Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture"), with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation ("MMC") holding the remaining non-controlling interest.
    • Hudbay expects to release an updated technical report for the Copper Mountain mine in the fourth quarter, which will include updated annual production and cost estimates for the mine.
  • Achieved higher grades from Pampacancha in July with 1.6 million tonnes of ore mined at 0.63% copper and 0.31 grams per tonne gold, consistent with the mine plan and company expectations for higher production in Peru in the third and fourth quarters of 2023.

Second Quarter Operating and Financial Results

  • Consolidated production in the second quarter was 21,715 tonnes of copper and 48,996 ounces of gold, which includes production from the Copper Mountain mine during the 10-day stub period following the June 20, 2023 acquisition date.
  • Consolidated cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^[i]^, in the second quarter, were $1.60 and $2.73, respectively, excluding Copper Mountain's costs during the 10-day stub period.
  • Peru operations successfully managed through a transitional quarter with elevated stripping activities at Pampacancha completed in June to enable mining high grade portions of the orebody in the second half of 2023. The Peru operations maintained steady performance, producing 17,682 tonnes of copper in the second quarter, which was in line with mine plan expectations. Peru cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter was $2.14, in line with quarterly cadence expectations as Pampacancha is expected to deliver higher copper production and precious metal by-product credits in the second half of 2023.
  • Manitoba operations produced 35,253 ounces of gold, which was impacted by lower throughput at the Stall mill due to downtime to complete the Stall mill Phase I recovery improvement project tie-ins which resulted in a buildup of surface ore stockpiles at the end of the second quarter. Lalor achieved an 11% increase in ore mined versus the first quarter as the company continues to implement improvements to reduce costs and target higher production levels. Manitoba cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits^i^, was $1,097 and is expected to decline to be within the annual guidance range due to higher throughput, gold recoveries and gold grades expected in the second half of 2023.
TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20
  • Second quarter net loss and loss per share were $14.9 million and $0.05, respectively. After adjusting for $6.8 million of transaction costs incurred during the quarter associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and a non-cash gain of $4.7 million related to a quarterly revaluation of the company's closed site environmental reclamation provision, among other items, second quarter adjusted loss^i^ per share was $0.07.
  • Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $55.9 million and adjusted EBITDA^i^ was $81.2 million in the second quarter.
  • Cash and cash equivalents declined during the second quarter to $179.7 million and were negatively impacted by lower base metal prices and lower production volumes as a result of scheduled mill maintenance programs, elevated stripping activity in Peru and a buildup of ore stockpiles in Manitoba. Cash and cash equivalents were also impacted by $25.8 million in total transaction costs related to the acquisition of Copper Mountain, $65.9 million of capital investments, primarily related to sustaining capital investments, and a $31.9 million bond interest payment.

Executing on Growth Initiatives and Prudent Financial Planning

• Copper Mountain integration activities are progressing in line with expectations with over 50% of the targeted annualized corporate and tax synergies already achieved to date. The company is focused on advancing its plans to stabilize the operation over the next 12 months, to be further detailed in a technical report, which will include an updated mine plan and mineral reserve and resource estimates, expected to be released in the fourth quarter.

• Copper World pre-feasibility study for Phase I is well-advanced and expected to be released in the third quarter.

• Snow Lake drilling intersected new high-grade copper-gold-silver zone 500 metres northwest of Lalor and indicates the hosting mineralization at Lalor continues down plunge for at least two kilometres.

• Completed the acquisition of the Cook Lake properties in Snow Lake, providing the potential for a new discovery on claims untested by modern geophysics and where historical drilling intersected base metal and gold mineralization at a fraction of Lalor's current known depth.

• Announced the entry into a definitive agreement to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Rockcliff Metals Corp. ("Rockcliff"), which is expected to increase Hudbay's land position within trucking distance of its Snow Lake processing facilities by more than 250%. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter.

• On July 6, 2023, established framework for a multi-year exploration partnership with Marubeni Corporation focused on the discovery of new deposits within trucking distance of Hudbay's processing facilities in Flin Flon, Manitoba.

• First phase of the Stall recovery improvement project was completed during the second quarter with commissioning completed in May and ramp-up to higher metal recoveries expected in the second half of 2023.

• In connection with the Copper Mountain transaction, Hudbay amended its Revolving Credit Facilities ("RCFs") to (i) exclude the Copper Mountain group from the financial covenant calculations in the RCFs until the Copper Mountain Nordic bonds are repaid in full and (ii) increase the net debt to EBITDA covenant ratio to provide greater financial flexibility during the integration period.

• Subsequent to quarter end, Hudbay drew $90 million from its RCFs to finance the redemption of a portion of Copper Mountain's Nordic bonds, thus improving the company's ability to deleverage and repay debt sooner than the bond maturity.

• On track to deliver annual discretionary spending reduction targets for 2023 with lower growth capital and exploration expenditures compared to 2022. As a result of a continued focus on discretionary spending reductions, total capital expenditures for 2023 are expected to be approximately $15 million lower than guidance levels, representing 5% of total capital expenditure guidance.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

"We remain on track to meet our 2023 guidance as we completed many transitional activities in the second quarter that position us for stronger production and improved costs during the second half of 2023," said Peter Kukielski, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The higher grades we are currently mining at Pampacancha, the planned improved throughput and recoveries in Snow Lake and the recent completion of the Copper Mountain acquisition are expected to generate strong free cash flows starting in the third quarter of 2023. With Copper Mountain we have a larger and more resilient operating platform to deliver diversified cash flows to prudently advance our leading organic pipeline of brownfield expansion and greenfield exploration and development opportunities across our portfolio."

Summary of Second Quarter Results

Consolidated copper production in the second quarter of 2023 was 21,715 tonnes, a decrease of 4% compared to the first quarter of 2023 as the company completed the higher volume stripping program at Pampacancha in June and a scheduled mill maintenance program at Constancia, partially offset by a 10-day stub period of production from the newly acquired Copper Mountain mine (the "Copper Mountain Stub Period"). Consolidated gold production in the quarter was 48,996 ounces, a 4% increase over the prior quarter, primarily due to slightly higher gold grades and higher gold recoveries in Peru. Consolidated silver production in the second quarter was 612,310 ounces, a decrease of 13% compared to the first quarter primarily due to lower silver grades in Peru. Consolidated zinc production in the second quarter was 8,758 tonnes, a decline of 11% compared to the first quarter due to lower throughput and zinc head grades at Stall.

Consolidated cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter of 2023 was $1.60, compared to $0.85 in the first quarter of 2023. This increase was mainly the result of higher mining, milling and treatment and refining costs and lower copper production. Consolidated cash cost for the first six months of 2023 was above 2023 guidance ranges but remained in line with quarterly cadence expectations, and the company expects consolidated cash cost to decline in the second half of 2023 to be within the full year guidance range. Consolidated sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, was $2.73 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1.83 in the first quarter. Consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, was $2.98 in the second quarter of 2023, higher than $2.07 in the first quarter, primarily due to the same reasons outlined above. Consolidated cash cost and sustaining cash cost for the second quarter and year-to-date exclude Copper Mountain's operations, as no revenues or corresponding cost of sales were recorded during the Copper Mountain Stub Period.

Cash generated from operating activities in the second quarter of 2023 decreased to $24.6 million compared to $71.3 million in the first quarter primarily due to higher operating costs in Peru associated with the scheduled mill maintenance program and higher planned stripping activities at Pampacancha. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $55.9 million during the second quarter of 2023, lower than the first quarter, due to the same reasons noted above.

Net loss and loss per share in the second quarter of 2023 were $14.9 million and $0.05, respectively, compared to net earnings and earnings per share of $5.5 million and $0.02, respectively, in the first quarter. The results were negatively impacted by $6.8 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and a $1.4 million foreign exchange loss. This was partially offset by a non-cash gain of $4.7 million related to the quarterly revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision at the company's closed sites and a $1.1 million revaluation gain related to the gold prepayment liability.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

Adjusted net loss^i^ and adjusted net loss per share^i^ in the second quarter of 2023 were $18.3 million and $0.07 per share, respectively, after adjusting for $6.8 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and the non-cash revaluation gain of the environmental reclamation provision, among other items. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA^i^ was $81.2 million, compared to $101.9 million in the first quarter of 2023, as higher operating costs in Peru associated with the scheduled mill maintenance program more than offset higher revenue from an increase in sales volumes.

On June 20, 2023, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of Copper Mountain (the "Copper Mountain Transaction"). Copper Mountain's first shipment of copper concentrate following the acquisition occurred on July 23, 2023 after a brief strike action at the Port of Vancouver earlier in July. As such, Hudbay's second quarter results were not materially affected by Copper Mountain's operations with no revenues or corresponding cost of sales recorded during the Copper Mountain Stub Period. Combined acquisition-related costs incurred were $25.8 million, of which $6.8 million related to Hudbay's legal and advisory fees that were expensed during the second quarter, while the remaining costs were incurred by Copper Mountain prior to completion of the acquisition.

As at June 30, 2023, liquidity included $179.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as undrawn availability of $184.1 million under the company's RCFs. Subsequent to quarter end, Hudbay drew $90 million from its RCFs to finance the redemption of $83.3 million of Copper Mountain's bonds, thereby reducing the aggregate amount of Copper Mountain bonds outstanding to $59.7 million and improving the company's ability to deleverage and repay debt sooner than the 2026 bond maturity. Based on expected free cash flow generation in the second half of 2023, Hudbay continues to expect to make progress on its deleveraging targets as outlined in its "3-P" plan for sanctioning Copper World. Current liquidity combined with cash flow from operations is expected to be sufficient to meet liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Constancia operations produced 17,682 tonnes of copper, 12,998 ounces of gold, 419,642 ounces of silver and 414 tonnes of molybdenum. With the period of higher planned stripping activities in the Pampacancha pit completed in June and ore mined from Pampacancha in July totaling 1.6 million tonnes at 0.63% copper and 0.31 grams per tonne gold, the company is well on track to achieve the higher expected production in the second half of the year, in line with the full year 2023 Peru production guidance.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

Total ore mined in the second quarter of 2023 increased by 41% compared to the first quarter as mining activities returned to normal after the company reduced mining activities in the first quarter to conserve fuel during the period of logistical constraints caused by civil unrest earlier this year.

Ore milled during the second quarter of 2023 was 6% lower than the prior quarter primarily due to a schedule plant maintenance shutdown in the second quarter without a corresponding shutdown in the first quarter. Milled copper grades were slightly lower than the first quarter due to the continued processing of lower-grade ore from stockpiles as the company completed a period of higher planned stripping activities in the Pampacancha pit in June. Recoveries of copper during the second quarter of 2023 remained at low levels, as expected, due to higher levels of impurities in stockpiled ore. Recoveries for gold and silver were 8% and 7% higher, respectively, than the first quarter due to higher gold grades and lower zinc content impurities in ore processed.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 were 23% higher than the first quarter primarily due to higher costs related to the scheduled plant shutdown and lower milled ore throughput during the quarter.

Peru's cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter of 2023 was $2.14, higher than the first quarter primarily due to higher mining, milling and treatment and refining charges and lower copper production. This cost measure remains above the upper end of the 2023 guidance range. However, it is expected to decline meaningfully in the second half of 2023 and the full year cash cost is expected to remain within the 2023 guidance range with higher expected copper production and contributions from precious metal by-product credits from Pampacancha later this year.

Peru's sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter of 2023 was $3.06, higher than the first quarter due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

During the second quarter of 2023, the Manitoba operations produced 35,253 ounces of gold, 8,758 tonnes of zinc, 2,794 tonnes of copper and 180,750 ounces of silver. Production of copper and silver was higher than the first quarter due to higher grades and recoveries. Production of gold and zinc was lower than the first quarter due to lower recoveries and lower zinc grades, partially offset by higher gold grades. With the completion of a number of key initiatives aimed to continue to support higher production levels at Lalor, improved metal recoveries at the mills and a prioritization of mining higher gold grade zones at Lalor in the second half of 2023, as planned, full year Manitoba production of all metals remains on track to achieve guidance ranges. However, with a slower ramp-up of gold recoveries associated with the Stall Phase I recovery improvement project in the second quarter, gold production is trending towards the lower end of the 2023 guidance range for Manitoba, while copper and zinc production is trending towards the upper end of the guidance ranges.

The Manitoba team continues to advance several key initiatives to support higher production levels and improved metal recoveries at the Snow Lake operations. Significant progress has been made at Lalor in optimizing development drift size, improving shaft availability and implementing changes to achieve better stope muck fragmentation, which enabled the elimination of inefficient trucking of ore to surface via the ramp late in the second quarter. The first phase of the Stall mill recovery improvement project, consisting of new cyclone packs, state-of-the-art Jameson Cells on the copper and zinc circuits and process control improvements, was completed during the second quarter. Commissioning of the circuits quickly achieved targeted copper and zinc concentrate grades, while gold recovery improvements progressed slower than planned. Changes to optimize the circuit are underway and the company expects to achieve higher gold recoveries in the second half of 2023. Hudbay also implemented tailings deposition improvements that are expected to maximize the Anderson facility tailings capacity and defer incremental dam construction activities to future years.

Hudbay successfully completed planned maintenance of the muck circuit, rock breaker boom change out and repairs and electrical installations at Lalor during the second quarter. Despite this planned maintenance program, ore mined from Lalor increased by 11% in the second quarter compared to the first quarter, averaging over 4,500 tonnes per day. Lalor continues to implement improvements to reduce costs and target higher production levels with a focus on equipment fleet availability and building of longhole inventory. Gold, copper and silver grades mined during the second quarter of 2023 were 3%, 42% and 28% higher, respectively, than the first quarter, while zinc grades were 5% lower than the first quarter, consistent with the mine plan.

The Stall mill processed similar levels of ore compared to the first quarter of 2023, in line with expectations, due to completion of the Phase I recovery improvement project during the quarter and the commissioning of new Jameson cells requiring associated tie-ins of piping, pump boxes and electrical instrumentation, as noted above. As a result of the temporary interruptions introduced by the project tie-ins, there was a buildup of approximately 30,000 tonnes of base metal ore stockpiles above normal levels at the end of second quarter that will be milled during the second half of 2023.

The New Britannia mill continued to achieve consistent production in the second quarter of 2023, averaging approximately 1,560 tonnes per day. Hudbay continues to advance improvement initiatives at New Britannia requiring minimal capital outlays with a focus on reducing reagent and grinding media consumption while further improving overall metal recoveries and copper concentrate grades. There was a buildup of approximately 15,000 tonnes of gold ore stockpiles above normal levels at the end of the second quarter, which will be milled during the second half of 2023.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 slightly increased compared to the first quarter reflecting slightly lower mill throughput due, in part, to the 45,000 tonnes of additional ore stockpiled above normal operating levels at the end of the second quarter.

Manitoba's cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter was $1,097, higher than the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher mining costs, higher treatment and refining charges and lower gold production, partially offset by lower G&A. Gold cash cost is expected to decline in the second half of 2023 and the full year cash cost is expected to remain within the 2023 guidance range.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

Sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits^i^, in the second quarter was $1,521, higher than the first quarter due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above.

Completion of the Copper Mountain Acquisition

On June 20, 2023, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of Copper Mountain, pursuant to which Hudbay has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Copper Mountain. As a result of the completion of the Copper Mountain Transaction, Copper Mountain became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hudbay and Hudbay became the indirect owner of 75% of the Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture. In aggregate, Hudbay issued 84,165,617 Hudbay common shares under the Copper Mountain Transaction to former Copper Mountain shareholders as consideration for their Copper Mountain shares. The Copper Mountain shares were de-listed from the TSX on June 21, 2023 and an application has been submitted with the applicable Canadian securities commissions for Copper Mountain to cease to be a reporting issuer under Canadian securities laws. In connection with the closing, Hudbay appointed Jeane Hull and Paula Rogers, former directors of Copper Mountain, to the board of Hudbay.

The Copper Mountain Transaction creates a premier Americas-focused copper mining company that is well-positioned to deliver sustainable cash flows from an operating portfolio of three long-life mines, as well as compelling organic growth from a world-class pipeline of copper mine expansion and development projects. All assets in the combined portfolio are located in the tier-one mining-friendly jurisdictions of Canada, Peru and the United States. The combined company represents the third largest copper producer in Canada based on 2023 estimated copper production.

Integrating the Copper Mountain Mine

Copper Mountain integration activities are progressing in line with expectations and over 50% of the targeted annualized corporate and tax synergies have already been achieved to date. The company is focused on advancing its plans to stabilize the operation over the next 12 months, including opening up the mine by adding additional mining faces and re-mobilizing idle haul trucks, optimizing the ore feed to the plant and implementing plant improvement initiatives. Further details on Hudbay's plans will be provided in a technical report, including an updated mine plan, revised mineral reserve and resource estimates, and updated annual production and cost estimates for the Copper Mountain mine, which is expected to be released in the fourth quarter.

During the Copper Mountain Stub Period, the Copper Mountain mine produced 1,239 tonnes of copper, 745 ounces of gold and 11,918 ounces of silver. The first copper concentrate shipment following the acquisition date was completed on July 23, 2023 after a brief strike at the Port of Vancouver earlier in July.

As an additional prudent measure to ensure free cash flow generation in the second half of 2023 as Hudbay stabilizes the Copper Mountain operations, subsequent to quarter-end, the Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture entered into forward sales contracts for a total of 2,000 tonnes of copper production over the five-month period from August to December 2023 at an average price of $3.86 per pound.

Copper World Permitting and Pre-Feasibility Study Well-Advanced

In late 2022, Hudbay submitted the state-level applications for an Aquifer Protection Permit and an Air Quality Permit to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality. The company expects to receive these two outstanding state permits by early 2024.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

In May 2023, Hudbay received a favourable ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that reversed the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's designation of the area near Copper World and the former Rosemont project as jaguar critical habitat. While this ruling doesn't impact the state permitting process for Phase I of Copper World, it is expected to simplify the federal permitting process for Phase II of the Copper World project.

Pre-feasibility activities for Phase I are well-advanced and a pre-feasibility study is expected to be released in the third quarter of 2023. Hudbay intends to initiate a minority joint venture partner process prior to commencing a definitive feasibility study, which will allow the potential joint venture partner to participate in the funding of definitive feasibility study activities in 2024 as well as in the final project design for Copper World.

Potential for Snow Lake Mine Life Extension with Discovery of New Mineralized Zones Near Lalor and Significant Regional Land Consolidation

In July 2023, the company announced positive results from its 2023 winter drill program near Lalor in Snow Lake, Manitoba, and significant land consolidation in the Snow Lake region through several strategic transactions. The agreements with multiple land holders will increase Hudbay's holdings in the Snow Lake region by more than 250%. Hudbay intends to explore these claims in hopes of finding a new anchor deposit to maximize and extend the life of Hudbay's Snow Lake operations beyond 2038.

Lalor New Mineralized Zones

The 2023 winter drill program in Snow Lake included the testing of a geophysical anomaly located northwest of Lalor, within 500 metres of existing underground infrastructure. All holes intersected an alteration zone that is known to host the Lalor mineralization. Certain holes intersected several sulphide horizons with both zinc and copper-gold-silver mineralization. Hole CH2303 intersected three mineralized zones, including 7.0 metres of 3.06% zinc and 15.1 grams per tonne silver; 3.5 metres of 3.81% copper, 3.75 grams per tonne gold and 104.5 grams per tonne silver; and 7.5 metres of 3.87% zinc and 7.5 grams per tonne silver. For more information on the drill holes, please refer to Hudbay's news release dated July 27, 2023.

The winter drill program also included testing of the down-plunge copper-gold extensions of the Lalor deposit, in the first drilling in the deeper zones at Lalor since the initial discovery of the copper-gold zones in 2009 and 2010. This initial campaign consisted of eight widely spaced drill holes over a distance of two kilometres, and all holes intersected the zone of strong alteration known to host the Lalor mineralization and have shown many occurrences of disseminated copper sulfides indicating the potential close proximity of one or more higher grade copper-gold feeder zones similar to Lens 27 currently in production at Lalor. These initial results from widely spaced drilling are an encouraging indication that the rocks hosting the rich copper-gold mineralization at Lalor continue down-plunge as predicted by Hudbay's geological models. For more information on the drill holes, please refer to Hudbay's news release dated July 27, 2023.

Hudbay expects to refine targets for its 2024 winter drilling campaign to the northwest and down-plunge from Lalor using the results from geophysical borehole surveys.

Acquisition of Cook Lake Properties in Snow Lake

In late June 2023, Hudbay completed the acquisition of the Cook Lake properties from Glencore plc. The Cook Lake properties are located within ten kilometres and along the same regional trend as the Lalor mine, and have the potential to host a new discovery at depth. The properties include the Cook Lake North and South properties, which are within 30 kilometres of Hudbay's Stall and New Britannia processing facilities.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

Hudbay has received data regarding approximately 60,000 metres of historical drilling that was competed on the Cook Lake properties between 1971 and 2012, with an average depth of only 275 metres, which is a fraction of the depth of Lalor's current known mineralization of approximately 600 to 1,500 metres. The historical drill holes appear to have intersected base metal and copper-gold mineralization typical to the Snow Lake region. Although the historical data has not been validated by a qualified person (see "Qualified Person and NI 43-101"), the mineralization indicates that there is the potential for new deposits on the same favourable mineralized horizons as many known deposits in the area, including the Lalor, 1901 and Chisel deposits. The Cook Lake properties are untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor mine.

Acquisition of Rockcliff to Consolidate Significant Land Package in Snow Lake

On June 19, 2023, Hudbay entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Rockcliff that it does not already own (the "Rockcliff Transaction"). Under the Rockcliff Transaction, Rockcliff shareholders will receive 0.006776 of a Hudbay common share for each Rockcliff common share held. The enterprise value to Hudbay, net of Rockcliff's cash, is approximately $13 million.

Rockcliff is one of the largest landholders in the Snow Lake area with more than 1,800 square kilometres across all of its properties. The completion of the Rockcliff Transaction will consolidate Hudbay's ownership of the Talbot deposit and provide the company with additional exploration properties in the vicinity of its Stall and New Britannia mills, including the land adjacent to Hudbay's Pen II deposit, which is a low tonnage and high-grade zinc deposit that starts from surface and is located approximately six kilometres by road from the Lalor mine.

Completion of the Rockcliff Transaction is contingent upon court approval from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List), shareholder approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by Rockcliff shareholders at a special meeting scheduled to be held on August 31, 2023 and other customary conditions and stock exchange approvals. The Rockcliff Transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

Advancing Metallurgical Testwork for the Flin Flon Tailings Reprocessing Opportunity

In 2021, Hudbay identified the opportunity to reprocess Flin Flon tailings where in excess of 100 million tonnes of tailings have been deposited for over 90 years. The company completed confirmatory drilling in 2022 which covered about two-thirds of the facility. The results indicated higher zinc, copper and silver grades than predicted from historical mill records while confirming the historical gold grade. Hudbay is completing metallurgical test work and evaluating metallurgical technologies, including the recent signing of a testwork agreement with Cobalt Blue Holdings Limited ("Cobalt Blue") to assess the processing viability of the Flin Flon tailings using Cobalt Blue's proprietary processing technology that recovers copper, zinc, gold and silver while converting sulphides into stable and benign sulphur.

Other Exploration Update

Constancia In-Mine Exploration

Hudbay continues to execute a limited drill program and technical evaluations at the Constancia deposit to confirm the economic viability of adding an additional mining phase to the current mine plan that would convert a portion of the mineral resources to mineral reserves. The results from this drill program and technical and economic evaluations are expected to be incorporated in the next annual mineral reserve and resource update.

TSX, NYSE - HBM<br><br> <br>2023 No. 20

Maria Reyna and Caballito Exploration

Hudbay controls a large, contiguous block of mineral rights with the potential to host satellite mineral deposits in close proximity to the Constancia processing facility, including the past producing Caballito property and the highly prospective Maria Reyna property. Hudbay commenced early exploration activities at Maria Reyna and Caballito after completing a surface rights exploration agreement with the community of Uchucarcco in August 2022. Surface investigation activities together with baseline environmental and archaeological activities necessary to support drill permit applications have been completed. Surface mapping and geochemical sampling confirm that both Caballito and Maria Reyna host sulfide and oxide rich copper mineralization in skarns, hydrothermal breccias and large porphyry intrusive bodies.

Lalor In-Mine Exploration

Hudbay continues to compile results from ongoing infill drilling at Lalor, which will be incorporated into the next annual mineral resource and reserve estimate update.

Flin Flon Exploration Partnership with Marubeni

On July 6, 2023, Hudbay announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") with Marubeni Corporation ("Marubeni") that establishes the framework for a multi-year exploration partnership focused on the discovery of new deposits on Hudbay's mineral properties within trucking distance of the company's processing facilities in Flin Flon, Manitoba. In connection with the MOU, Hudbay and Marubeni have agreed to negotiate the terms of a definitive agreement to govern the relationship between the parties and the Flin Flon properties that would form the subject of the exploration partnership (the "Project Properties"). It is currently contemplated that Marubeni would fund approximately $10 to $15 million of exploration expenditures on the Project Properties and that Hudbay will act as operator and carry out the exploration activities.

Dividend Declared

A semi-annual dividend of C$0.01 per share was declared on August 8, 2023. The dividend will be paid out on September 22, 2023 to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2023.

Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures

Adjusted net earnings (loss), adjusted net earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA, net debt, cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, cash cost and sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced and combined unit cost are non-IFRS performance measures. These measures do not have a meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with IFRS and are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Management believes adjusted net earnings (loss) and adjusted net earnings (loss) per share provides an alternate measure of the company's performance for the current period and gives insight into its expected performance in future periods. These measures are used internally by the company to evaluate the performance of its underlying operations and to assist with its planning and forecasting of future operating results. As such, the company believes these measures are useful to investors in assessing the company's underlying performance. Hudbay provides adjusted EBITDA to help users analyze the company's results and to provide additional information about its ongoing cash generating potential in order to assess its capacity to service and repay debt, carry out investments and cover working capital needs. Net debt is shown because it is a performance measure used by the company to assess its financial position. Cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced are shown because the company believes they help investors and management assess the performance of its operations, including the margin generated by the operations and the company. Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced are shown because the company believes they help investors and management assess the performance of its Manitoba operations. Combined unit cost is shown because Hudbay believes it helps investors and management assess the company's cost structure and margins that are not impacted by variability in by-product commodity prices.

The following tables provide detailed reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS measures.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements<br>(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)<br>For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

1. Reporting entity

Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("HMI" or the "Company") is a company existing under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The address of the Company's principal executive office is 25 York Street, Suite 800, Toronto, Ontario. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 represent the financial position and the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "Hudbay").

Wholly owned subsidiaries as at June 30, 2023 and 2022 include HudBay Marketing & Sales Inc. ("HMS"), HudBay Peru Inc., HudBay Peru S.A.C. ("Hudbay Peru"), HudBay (BVI) Inc., Hudbay Arizona Inc, Copper World, Inc. ("Copper World") and Mason Resources (US) Inc. ("Mason"). On June 20, 2023, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Copper Mountain Mining Corporation ("Copper Mountain") as part of a court-approved plan of arrangement. Copper Mountain is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and owns 75% of Copper Mountain Mine (BC) Ltd. ("CMBC"), the entity that owns the Copper Mountain mine. Mitsubishi Materials Corporation ("MMC"), an arms-length party, owns the remaining 25% interest in CMBC.

Hudbay is a diversified mining company with long-life assets in North and South America. Hudbay's operations in Cusco (Peru) produce copper with gold, silver and molybdenum by-products. Hudbay's operations in Manitoba (Canada) produce gold with copper, zinc and silver by-products. Hudbay's operations in British Columbia (Canada) produce copper with gold and silver by-products. Hudbay has an organic pipeline that includes copper development projects in Arizona and Nevada (United States), and a focused growth strategy on exploration, development, operation, and optimization of properties that Hudbay already controls, as well as other mineral assets that Hudbay may acquire that fit the Company's strategic criteria. The Company is governed by the Canada Business Corporations Act and its shares are listed under the symbol "HBM" on the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and Bolsa de Valores de Lima.

2. Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance:

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 which includes information necessary or useful to understanding the Company's business and financial statement presentation. In particular, the Company's accounting policies are presented as note 3 in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements, except as noted below.

As a result of the acquisition of Copper Mountain, the Company's interim financial statements also reflect  the following relevant accounting policies.

HUDBAY MINERALS INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements<br>(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)<br>For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are identified separately from the Company's equity in the subsidiaries. The interests of non-controlling shareholders may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests' share of subsequent changes in equity. Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

The Company performs goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis as at December 31 each year. If the carrying value of the CGU or group of CGUs to which goodwill is assigned exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Goodwill impairment losses are recorded in the consolidated income statements and they are not subsequently reversed.

The Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements on August 8, 2023.

(b) Use of judgements and estimates:

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires Hudbay to make judgements, estimates and assumptions, in applying accounting policies that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these judgements, estimates and assumptions. The interim financial statements reflect the judgements and estimates outlined by Hudbay in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as noted below.

  • Valuation of an acquired business (note 5) - As the Company concluded that the acquisition of Copper Mountain was a business combination, a valuation was required to determine the allocation of the purchase price. The fair values of the net assets acquired were calculated using significant estimates and judgements. In particular, the fair values of the net assets, including mineral properties, other property, plant and equipment have been determined using an independent valuation involving discounted cash flow calculations and other finance models. Such calculations and models were required to estimate, amongst other items, future production, future commodity prices, operating and capital input costs, discount rates and currency rates. If estimates or judgements differed, this could result in a materially different allocation of net assets to the consolidated balance sheets and could result in a change in the amount of goodwill recognized. Changes to the preliminary values of  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed,  deferred  income  taxes  and  resulting  goodwill,  if  any,  are retrospectively adjusted when the final measurements are determined if related to conditions existing at the date of acquisition (within one year of acquisition).

  • Inventory valuation (note 8) - Stockpiled ore and concentrate inventory are valued at the lower of average cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is calculated as the estimated price at the time of sale based on prevailing and future metal prices less estimated future processing costs to convert the inventory into salable form and the associated selling costs. Where inventory is to be processed more than one year in the future, the estimate of net realizable value is based on a discounted cash flow projection. The determination of future sales price, processing and selling costs requires assumptions that may impact the stated value of inventory. Because the low grade inventory net realizable value measurement involves discounting, any significant changes in the projected timing of processing of the stockpile could result in significant impairment charges or reversals.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements<br>(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)<br>For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

(c) Estimation uncertainty:

The Company has assessed the broad implications of economic uncertainty including but not limited to inflation and higher interest rates, political instability in Peru and broadly as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, as well as the lingering impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic, on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As at June 30, 2023, management has determined that the Company's ability to execute its medium and longer term plans and the economic viability of its assets, including the carrying value of its long-lived assets and inventory valuations, are not materially impacted.

In making this judgment, the Company has assessed various criteria including, but not limited to, existing laws, regulations, orders, disruptions and potential disruptions in our supply chain, disruptions in the markets for our products, commodity prices and foreign exchange prices and the actions that the Company has taken at its operations to protect the health and safety of its workforce and local community.

3. Reclassification of comparative amounts

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. Community agreement payments were previously included within acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the investing activities section of the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows and has now been reclassified to its own line within investing activities. This reclassification had no effect on the previously reported cash used in investing activities.

4. New standards

New standards and interpretations adopted

(a) Amendment to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements

The amendments to IAS 1 amendments help companies provide useful accounting policy disclosures. The adoption of the new standard effective January 1, 2023 did not impact the interim financial statements of the Company.

New standards issued but not yet effective

(b) Amendment to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements

The amendments to IAS 1 clarify that only covenants with which an entity is required to comply on or before the reporting date affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current. In addition, an entity has to disclose information in the notes that enables users of financial statements to understand the risk that non-current liabilities with covenants could become repayable within twelve months. Classification is unaffected by the expectations that the entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability. Lastly, the amendments clarify that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of adoption of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.

5. Acquisition of Copper Mountain Mining Corporation

On June 20, 2023, Hudbay acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Copper Mountain, as part of a court-approved plan of arrangement. Copper Mountain is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and owns 75% of CMBC, the entity that owns the Copper Mountain mine. MMC owns the remaining 25% interest in CMBC as a non-controlling interest.

In doing so, Hudbay obtained control of Copper Mountain on June 20, 2023.

Management determined that the assets and processes comprised a business and therefore accounted for the transaction as a business combination, using the acquisition method of accounting.

Consideration transferred:

The purchase consideration paid by Hudbay was for 100% of the net assets of Copper Mountain and their 100% owned subsidiaries ("100% owned entities") and a 75% ownership in CMBC. The aggregate preliminary purchase consideration for the acquired assets, net of the liabilities assumed is as follows:

Equity instruments (84,165,617 common shares) $ 436,687
Cash 3,794
Consideration transferred - June 20, 2023 $ 440,481

The fair value of the common shares issued was based on Hudbay's listed share price of C$6.87 at the June 20, 2023 acquisition date. Immediately prior to the acquisition, Copper Mountain settled its outstanding restricted share units and performance share units through the issuance of shares and settled its stock options for replacement Hudbay options that were immediately settled in cash.

Hudbay incurred acquisition related costs of $6,752 during the second quarter of 2023, mainly relating to external legal and advisory fees and due diligence costs, which were recorded in other expense in the condensed consolidated interim income statements. Transaction costs incurred by Copper Mountain were accrued prior to the acquisition date and were expensed in their pre-acquisition records. In addition, Hudbay incurred share issuance costs of $188 and presented these as a deduction from share capital.

Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

The fair value of the net assets was determined using a combination of market, income and cost methods. The fair value of the 75% equity interest in CMBC was determined by first computing the equity value of the 100% owned entities and subtracting this from the consideration paid by Hudbay and then grossing up the remainder to determine the implied consideration for a 100% equity interest in CMBC. The fair value of the non-controlling interest was then computed at a 25% equity interest.

HUDBAY MINERALS INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements<br>(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)<br>For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

The following presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price, resulting in recognized fair value amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

Fair value of net assets acquired / (liabilities) assumed Preliminary
Cash and cash equivalent $ 14,483
Trade and other receivables 19,110
Inventories 47,875
Prepaid expenses 3,096
Other financial assets 8,495
Plant and equipment 434,419
Mineral properties 383,000
Inventories - low grade stockpile 6,000
Trade and other payables (77,111 )
Advances from Hudbay (3,421 )
Lease liabilities (44,167 )
Long-term debt (144,981 )
Environmental and other provisions (12,702 )
Deferred tax liabilities (153,208 )
Total fair value of net identifiable assets acquired $ 480,888

The fair values allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary, and are subject to adjustment based on further analysis and evaluation over the course of the measurement period, which will not exceed twelve months from the acquisition date. Where preliminary values are used in accounting for a business combination, they may be materially adjusted retrospectively in subsequent periods. In particular, the Company will continue to evaluate new information about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date pertaining to the fair value of property, plant and equipment, low grade stockpile, mineral properties, goodwill, reclamation provisions and deferred income and mining tax liabilities.

The fair values of mineral properties, low grade stockpile and other property, plant and equipment have been determined based on an independent valuation, using a combination of market, income and cost methods. In particular, the fair values of the mineral properties and low grade stockpile have been calculated using significant judgements and estimates.

Trade receivables acquired as part of the acquisition have a fair value of $8,764 which is equal to their gross contractual value. Other receivables acquired have a fair value of $10,346 million which is equal to their gross contractual value. Trade and other receivables are expected to be collected during the next 12 months.

Hudbay provided advances to Copper Mountain prior to the acquisition date, which have been recorded as a purchaser loan.

Hudbay recognized goodwill as a result of the acquisition as follows:

Total consideration transferred $ 440,481
Non-controlling interest 106,976
Less: value of net identifiable assets acquired (480,888 )
Goodwill upon acquisition at June 20, 2023 $ 66,569

The goodwill balance arose from the requirement to record deferred income tax liabilities measured at the tax effect of the difference between the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and their tax bases. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The results of operations have been consolidated with those of the Company from the date of acquisition and included in the British Columbia operating segment, however, second quarter 2023 loss was not materially affected as Copper Mountain had no revenues or corresponding cost of sales recorded during the 10 day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter. Had the business combination been effected at January 1, 2023, revenue and net loss contributed from the acquisition of Copper Mountain for the six months ended June 30, 2023, would have been $132,227 and a loss of $40,260, respectively.

Consideration from the Company's stream agreements is considered variable (note 17). Gold and silver stream revenue can be subject to cumulative adjustments when the amount of precious metals to be delivered under the contract changes. As a result of changes in the Company's mineral reserve and resource estimate in the first quarter of 2023, the amortization rate by which deferred revenue is drawn down into income was adjusted and, as required, a variable consideration adjustment was made for all prior year stream revenues since the stream agreement inception date. This variable consideration adjustment resulted in an increase of revenue of $4,885 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (June 30, 2022 - increase of revenue of $3,245).

(b) Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation of PP&E and amortization of intangible assets are reflected in the condensed consolidated interim income statements as follows:

(e) Impairment loss

As a result of the Copper World Complex preliminary economic assessment released in June 2022, which contemplates the mining of the Copper World deposits and the Rosemont deposit in a two-phase mine plan, it was determined that certain capitalized costs and assets associated with the previous stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit are no longer recoverable. As a result, during the second quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment loss of $94,956 related to these assets. The impairment loss was determined based on the specific identification of assets that are not expected to be recoverable under the Copper World Complex PEA. The Company presented the impairment losses within the Arizona segment in note 25. The fair value measurements used in the determination of impairment charges are categorized as level 2 based on the degree to which inputs are observable and have a significant effect on the recorded fair value.

The increase in derivative assets is the result of unrealized gains in copper and zinc fixed for floating swaps and costless copper collars following a decline in base metal prices during the second quarter of 2023. See note 22b.

Restricted cash is primarily related to a debt service reserve account used to satisfy the $5.0 million semi-annual principal installment and interest payments under the Bonds (note 16).

The Company has $2,013 in reclamation bonds with the Government of British Columbia in support of reclamation liabilities at the Copper Mountain mine site. The Company receives interest on these bonds.

10. Intangibles and other assets

Intangibles and other assets of $47,042 (December 31, 2022 - $49,841) includes $42,861 of other assets (December 31, 2022 - $45,074) and $4,181 of intangibles (December 31, 2022 - $4,767).

Other assets represent the carrying value of certain future community costs that relate to agreements with communities near the Peru operations which allow Hudbay to extract or explore minerals over the useful life of Peru operations. The liability remaining for these costs is recorded in agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost (note 13). Amortization of the carrying amount is recorded in the condensed consolidated interim income statements within other expenses (note 6c) or exploration expenses, depending on the nature of the agreement.

Intangibles mainly represent computer software costs.

^1^Includes $5,493 of capital works in progress - ROU assets (cost) that relate to the Arizona segment (December 31, 2022 - $5,413 related to the Arizona segment).

An indicator of impairment was identified in the three months ended March 31, 2023 as a result of an updated life of mine ("LOM") plan for Peru, which included updated costs reflecting recently experienced inflationary pressures. As such, management determined that a detailed impairment evaluation as at March 31, 2023 was required for the Peru CGU.

For the impairment test completed at March 31, 2023, Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal, ("FVLCD") was used to determine the recoverable amount since it is higher than value in use. FVLCD was calculated using discounted after-tax cash flows based on cash flow projections and assumptions in Hudbay's most current LOM. The fair value measurement in its entirety is categorized as Level 3 based on the degree to which fair value inputs are observable and have a significant effect on the recorded fair value.

LOM plans are based on optimized mine and processing plans and the assessment of capital expenditure requirements of a mine site. LOM plans incorporate management's best estimates of key assumptions which are discount rates, future commodity prices, production based on current estimates of recoverable reserves, future operating and capital costs, value of mineral resources not included in the LOM plan and future foreign exchange rates. The cash flows are for periods up to the date that production is expected to cease, which is 16 years for the Peru CGU.

The discount rate was based on the CGU's weighted average cost of capital, of which the two main components are the cost of equity and the after-tax cost of debt. Cost of equity was calculated based on the capital asset pricing model, incorporating the risk-free rate of return based on the US Government's marketable bond yields as at the valuation date, the Company's beta coefficient adjustment to the market equity risk premium based on the volatility of the Company's return in relation to that of a comparable market portfolio, plus a country risk premium, size premium and company-specific risk factor. Cost of debt was determined by applying an appropriate market indication of the Company's borrowing capabilities and the corporate income tax rate applicable to the segment's jurisdiction. A real discount rate of 7.00% for the Peru CGU was used to calculate the estimated after- tax discounted future net cash flows, commensurate with its individual estimated level of risk.

Commodity prices used in the impairment assessment were determined by reference to external market participant sources. The key commodity price for this assessment is the price of copper. Where applicable to each of the Group's CGUs, the cash flow calculations were based on estimates of future production levels applying forecasts for metal prices, which included forecasts for each year from 2023 to 2027 and long-term forecasts for years beginning in 2028. The cash flow calculations utilized a copper price of $3.75/lb starting in 2023. The cash flow calculations utilized a long-term copper price of $3.75/lb, and capital, operating and reclamation costs based on the most current LOM plans. A value of $210,000 was utilized to estimate the value of mineral resources not included in the LOM plan.

Expected future cash flows used to determine the FVLCD used in the impairment testing are inherently uncertain and could materially change over time. Should management's estimate of the future not reflect actual events, impairments may be identified. This may have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Although it is reasonably possible for a change in key assumptions to occur, the possible effects of a change in any single assumption may not fairly reflect the impact on a CGU's fair value as the assumptions are inextricably linked. For example, a decrease in the assumed price of long-term copper could result in amendments to the mine plans which would partially offset the effect of lower prices. It is difficult to determine how all of these factors would interrelate; however, in deriving a recoverable amount, management believes all of these factors need to be considered. As of March 31, 2023, a reasonably possible change in one of the key assumptions, all else being equal, may cause the carrying value to exceed the recoverable amount.

Management determined that the fair value less cost to dispose exceeded the carrying value of the Peru CGU, accordingly no impairment was recorded.

$ 100,244 $ 61,019

Hudbay has entered into leases which expire between 2023 and 2037. The interest rates on leases which were capitalized have interest rates between 2.39% and 8.49%, per annum. The range of interest rates utilized for discounting varies depending mostly on the Hudbay entity acting as lessee and duration of the lease. For certain leases, Hudbay has the option to purchase the equipment and vehicles leased at the end of the terms of the leases. Hudbay's obligations under these leases are secured by the lessor's title to the leased assets. The present value of applicable lease payments has been recognized as an ROU asset, which was included as a non-cash addition to property, plant and equipment, and a corresponding amount as a lease liability.

There are no restrictions placed on Hudbay by entering into these leases.

The following outlines expenses recognized within the Company's condensed consolidated interim income statements, relating to leases for which a recognition exemption was applied.

During the first quarter of 2023, Hudbay drew $40,000 under its Canadian revolving credit facility, which remains outstanding as of June 30, 2023.

The Company may repay any borrowings under the revolving credit facility at any time without premium or penalty.

In connection with the Copper Mountain Transaction, our revolving credit facilities ("RCFs") were amended to allow Hudbay to designate the Copper Mountain Group of companies as Unrestricted Subsidiaries under the RCFs so that the debt, cash, interest and EBITDA are excluded from ratio calculations and the assets excluded from the RCF security package until the Copper Mountain bonds are repaid in full. In addition, the Net Debt to EBITDA covenant ratio was increased from 4:1 to 4.5:1 for the periods ending June 30 and September 30, 2023, to provide greater financial flexibility during the business integration period.

As at June 30, 2023, the Peru segment had nil in letters of credit issued under the Peru revolving credit facility to support its reclamation obligations and the Manitoba segment had $26,116 in letters of credit issued under the Canadian revolving credit facility to support its reclamation and pension obligations.

Surety bonds

The Arizona segment had $12,835 in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and closure obligations. No cash collateral is required to be posted under these surety bonds.

The British Columbia segment had $15,909 in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and closure obligations. There is also a financial guarantee bond for $3,875 with BC Hydro in relation to the BC Hydro transmission system at the Copper Mountain Mine. No cash collateral is required to be posted under these surety bonds.

Other letters of credit

The Peru segment had $118,049 in letters of credit issued with various Peruvian financial institutions to support future reclamation and other operating matters. No cash collateral is required to be posted under these letters of credit.

On August 22, 2022, Hudbay closed a C$130.0 million bilateral letter of credit facility ("LC Facility") with a major Canadian financial institution. As at June 30, 2023, the Manitoba segment had $58,023 in letters of credit issued under the LC Facility to support its reclamation and pension obligations.

(c) Copper Mountain Bonds

On April 9, 2021 Copper Mountain completed an offering of $250,000 of secured bonds ("the Bonds"). The Bonds mature on April 9, 2026 and bear interest at an annual rate of 8.0%, payable semi-annually on April 9 and October 9. Semi-annual principal installments in the amount of $5 million are payable on each interest payment date. As at June 30, 2023, the Company had $3,669 on deposit in a debt service account to satisfy the upcoming semi-annual principal installment and interest payment. The debt service account balance is presented as restricted cash within our condensed consolidated interim balance sheet.

The Bonds are secured by a general security agreement on the assets of Copper Mountain and a pledge of Copper Mountain's equity interest in the Copper Mountain mine, but do not benefit from any credit support from Hudbay or its other subsidiaries. The Company may redeem all or part of the principal amount of the outstanding Bonds at any time from October 2023, at redemption prices ranging from 104% to 100%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. The prepayment options are not closely related to the host debt instrument and are separately accounted for as embedded derivatives. As at June 30, 2023, the value of the prepayment options was nil.

The Bonds also provide the bondholders with the right to put all or part of the principal amount of the outstanding Bonds to Copper Mountain at a price of 101%, plus accrued interest, following a change of control event. With the acquisition of Copper Mountain on June 20, 2023, the change of control event was triggered and all outstanding Bonds were available to be put to Copper Mountain within a predefined period of time immediately following the acquisition date. The Bonds are presented on the condensed consolidated interim balance sheet as the current portion of long-term debt as at June 30, 2023.

The change in control put option expired on July 17, 2023, at which time, $83,307 of the Bonds were put to Copper Mountain (note 26).

As at June 30, 2023, the Bonds have a principal amount outstanding of $143,000. Upon acquisition, the debt is recorded at its fair value as required as part of the accounting for the business combination with Copper Mountain. This fair value adjustment amortizes down to its historical cost over the duration of the facility (note 5).

The Bonds require the Copper Mountain to maintain: (a) a minimum cash amount of $10 million, on a subsidiary level, subject to the liquidity covenant step-up, as defined below; and (b) a minimum cash amount of CA$10 million at the Copper Mountain mine. The liquidity covenant step-up is defined as: in case that at the end of the quarter, the leverage ratio (defined as net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA) exceeds 4.0:1.0, Copper Mountain shall maintain a minimum cash balance of an amount equal to (i) $25 million less (ii) an amount equal to the amount deposited in the debt service account. Cash held by Copper Mountain, in the amount of $28,883, with respect to these covenants can only be utilized for the business activities of Copper Mountain.

As at June 30, 2023, Hudbay is in compliance with our financial covenants under the Bonds.

17. Deferred revenue

Peru Stream Agreement

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the drawdown rates for the Peru stream agreement for gold and silver were $820 and $15.26 per ounce, respectively (year ended December 31, 2022 - $734 and $14.95 per ounce, respectively).

777 Stream Agreement

As of September 30, 2022 all of 777's precious metals reserves and inventory levels have been depleted and we expect no further drawdown of deferred revenue.

As part of the streaming agreement for the 777 mine, Hudbay must repay, with precious metals credits, the stream deposit by August 1, 2052, the expiry date of the agreement. If the stream deposit is not fully repaid with precious metals credits from 777 production by the expiry date, a payment for the remaining amount will be due at the expiry date of the agreement. As the 777 mine has concluded all mining activities following the depletion of reserves and finalized the sales of produced concentrate, Hudbay concluded that the remaining stream deposit will not be repaid by means of precious metals credits from 777 production. The repayment amount is recorded as a Wheaton refund liability (note 13), which is and will be discounted at the 9.0% rate inherent in the original 777 stream agreement and accreted over the remaining term of the agreement.

The following table summarizes changes in deferred revenue:

Balance, January 1, 2022 $ 515,326
Amortization of deferred revenue
Liability drawdown (72,229 )
Variable consideration adjustments - prior periods (959 )
Accretion on streaming arrangements
Current year additions 28,718

Accretion on streaming arrangements (note 6d)
Current year-to-date additions 13,193
Variable consideration adjustments - prior periods (96 )
Balance, June 30, 2023 $ 448,603

Consideration from the Company's stream agreement is considered variable. Gold and silver stream revenue can be subject to cumulative adjustments when the number of ounces to be delivered under the contract changes. As a result of changes in the Company's mineral reserve and resource estimate in the first quarter of 2023 the amortization rate by which deferred revenue is drawn down into income was adjusted and, as required, a current period variable adjustment was made for all prior period stream revenues since the stream agreement inception date. This variable consideration adjustment resulted in an increase in revenue of $4,885 and a decrease of finance expense of $96 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 - increase in revenue of $959 and a decrease of finance expense of $940).

^1^ Relates primarily to restructuring costs and other non-capital provisions.

DRO are remeasured at each reporting date to reflect changes in discount rates, exchange rates, and timing and extent of cash outflows which can significantly affect the liabilities. This provision has been recorded based on estimates and assumptions that management believes are reasonable; however, actual decommissioning and restoration costs may differ from expectations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $12,932 in the condensed consolidated interim income statements mainly related to a revaluation adjustment to the Flin Flon operation's environmental reclamation provision. The first half of 2023 was impacted by a decrease in implied inflation rates, partially offset by decreases in long term, risk-free discount rates based on changes in Canadian bond yields. Typically, an operating location will reflect any revaluation adjustments to the environmental reclamation provision against its reclamation assets. However, as the Flin Flon operations closed in June 2022, the corresponding Flin Flon assets have been fully depreciated and cannot be reduced below residual value resulting in the remaining impact being recorded as a gain in the condensed consolidated interim income statements.

As at June 30, 2023, decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities have been discounted to their present value at rates ranging from 3.12% to 5.31% per annum (December 31, 2022 - 3.26% to 4.75%), using pre-tax, risk-free interest rates that reflect the estimated maturity of each specific liability.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $140,533 in the condensed consolidated interim income statements mainly related to a revaluation adjustment to the Flin Flon operation's environmental reclamation provision. The first half of 2022 revaluation was substantially impacted by an increase in long term, risk-free discount rates based on changes in Canadian bond yields.

For periods where Hudbay records a loss, Hudbay calculates diluted loss per share using the basic weighted average number of shares. If the diluted weighted average number of shares were used, the result would be a reduction in the loss, which would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Hudbay calculated diluted loss per share using 272,228,447 and 267,157,797 respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2022 - 262,250,995 and 262,257,603).

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the determination of the diluted weighted-average number of common shares excludes the impact of 257,941 and 274,398 weighted-average stock options outstanding that were anti-dilutive as the Company recorded a loss in the financial period.

^1^Cash and cash equivalents, reclamation bonds, restricted cash, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.

^2^Excludes tax and other statutory amounts.

^3^ Trade and other receivables contain receivables including provisionally priced receivables classified as FVTPL and various other items at amortized cost. The fair value of provisionally priced receivables is determined using forward metals prices which is a level 2 valuation method.

^4^Derivatives are carried at their fair value, which is determined based on internal valuation models that reflect observable forward market commodity prices, currency exchange rates, and discount factors based on market US dollar interest rates adjusted for credit risk.

^5^All investments are carried at their fair value, which is determined using quoted market bid prices in active markets for listed shares.

^6^These financial liabilities relate to agreements with communities near the Constancia project in Peru (note 13). Fair values have been determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on expected cash flows and a credit adjusted discount rate.

^7^Fair value of the senior unsecured notes (note 16) has been determined using the quoted market price at period end.

^8^Discounted value based on a risk adjusted discount rate.

^9^The gold prepayment liability (note 14) is designated as fair value through profit or loss under the fair value option. Gains and losses related to the Company's own credit risk have been recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income. The fair value adjustment recorded in other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was a loss of $188 (year ended December 31, 2022 was a gain of $512).

^10^ Discounted value based on a market rate at inception of the applicable Wheaton contract for carrying value (note 17) and current market rate at period end for fair value.

^11^Fair value of the bonds has been determined using the Hull-White model given the debt has a call feature.

^12^Fair value of the senior secured revolving credit facility is equal to its carrying value as the drawn interest rate under the facility is comparable to current market rates.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below provides an analysis by valuation method of financial instruments that are measured at fair value subsequent to recognition as well as financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which a fair value is disclosed. Levels 1 to 3 are defined based on the degree to which fair value inputs are observable and have a significant effect on the recorded fair value, as follows:

- Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
- Level 2: Valuation techniques use significant observable inputs, either directly or indirectly, or valuations are based on quoted prices for similar instruments; and,
- Level 3: Valuation techniques use significant inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, Hudbay did not make any such transfers.

Valuation techniques used for instruments categorized in Levels 2 and 3 are consistent with the year ended December 31, 2022, except as noted below.

The following additional valuation techniques are used for instruments categorized in Level 3:

  • Copper Mountain Bonds (Level 3) - This liability has been fair valued using the Hull-White model given the debt has a call option feature.

  • Senior secured revolving credit facilities (Level 3) - This liability has been fair valued using an applicable credit adjusted discount rate.

(b) Derivatives and hedging:

Copper fixed for floating swaps

Hudbay enters into copper fixed for floating swaps in order to manage the risk associated with provisional pricing terms in copper concentrate sales agreements. As at June 30, 2023, Hudbay had 54.0 million pounds of net copper swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $3.93/lb and settling from July to September 2023. As at December 31, 2022, Hudbay had 89.7 million pounds of net copper swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $3.61/lb and settling from January to May 2023. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at June 30, 2023 was an asset of $8,433 (December 31, 2022 - a liability position of $17,269).

Zinc fixed for floating swaps

Hudbay enters into zinc fixed for floating swaps in order to manage the risk associated with provisional pricing terms in zinc concentrate sales agreements. As at June 30, 2023, Hudbay had 18.0 million pounds of net zinc swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $1.16/lb and settling from July to September 2023. As at December 31, 2022, Hudbay had 17.5 million pounds of net zinc swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $1.32/lb and settling from January to March 2023. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at June 30, 2023 was an asset of $1,383 (December 31, 2022 - a liability position of $149).

Copper costless collars

Hudbay entered into a zero-cost collar program in April 2023 for approximately 10% of copper production expected in the second half of 2023. The program entails a hedge for 15.9 million pounds of copper for six months starting in July 2023 and establishes a floor price of $3.95 per pound and a cap price of $4.28 per pound. Gains and losses resulting from the settlement of these derivatives are recorded directly to revenue, as the forward sales contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting, and the associated cash flows are classified in operating activities. As at June 30, 2023, 15.9 million pounds of copper collars were unsettled (December 31, 2022 - nil). The aggregate fair value of the position at June 30, 2023 was an asset of $4,477 (December 31, 2022 - nil).

Transactions involving derivatives are with large multi-national financial institutions that Hudbay believes to be credit worthy.

(c) Provisionally priced receivables

Changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables

Hudbay records changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables related to provisional pricing in concentrate purchase, concentrate sale and certain other sale contracts. Under the terms of these contracts, prices are subject to final adjustment at the end of a future period after title transfers based on quoted market prices during the quotation period specified in the contract. The period between provisional pricing and final pricing is typically up to three months.

Changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables are presented in trade and other receivables when they relate to sales contracts and in trade and other payables when they relate to purchase contracts. At each reporting date, provisionally priced metals are marked-to-market based on the forward market price for the quotation period stipulated in the contract, with changes in fair value recognized in revenue for sales contracts and in inventory or cost of sales for purchase concentrate contracts. Cash flows related to changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables are classified in operating activities.

As at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Hudbay's net position consisted of contracts awaiting final pricing are as indicated below:

Metal in Sales awaiting final pricing Average YTD price (/unit)

(c) Non-cash transactions:

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, Hudbay entered into the following non-cash investing and financing activities which are not reflected in the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows:

  • Remeasurement of Hudbay's decommissioning and restoration liabilities led to a net increase in related property, plant and equipment assets of $27,151 (June 30, 2022 - a net decrease of $31,799), mainly related to changes to real discount rates associated with remeasurement of the liabilities.

  • Property, plant and equipment included $4,708 (June 30, 2022 - $20,273) of capital additions related to the recognition of ROU assets. Property, plant and equipment and other assets include $2,707 of capital additions related to agreements with communities (June 30, 2022 - $1,653).

25. Segmented information

As at June 30, 2023, Hudbay has five reportable segments identified by the individual mining operations of Manitoba, Copper Mountain (British Columbia), Peru, as well as the Copper World project (Arizona) and Corporate and other activities. The acquisition of Copper Mountain was completed on June 20, 2023. However, Hudbay's second quarter 2023 loss was not materially affected by the acquisition as Copper Mountain had no revenues or corresponding cost of sales recorded during the 10 day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter. No results for the British Columbia segment are reflected in the prior period comparative figures. Corporate and other activities include the Company's exploration activities in Chile, Canada and the State of Nevada. These exploration entities are not individually significant, as they do not meet the minimum quantitative thresholds for standalone segment disclosure. Corporate and other activities are not considered a segment and are included as a reconciliation to total consolidated results.

OUR BUSINESS

We are a diversified mining company with long-life assets in North and South America. Our Constancia operations in Cusco (Peru) produce copper with gold, silver and molybdenum by-products. Our Snow Lake operations in Manitoba (Canada) produce gold with copper, zinc and silver by-products. Our Copper Mountain operations in British Columbia (Canada) produce copper with gold and silver by-products. We have an organic pipeline that includes the Copper World project in Arizona and the Mason project in Nevada (United States), and our growth strategy is focused on the exploration, development, operation, and optimization of properties we already control, as well as other mineral assets we may acquire that fit our strategic criteria. We are governed by the Canada Business Corporations Act and our shares are listed under the symbol "HBM" on the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and Bolsa de Valores de Lima.

SUMMARY

Positioned for Strong Production Growth and Free Cash Flow Generation in the Second Half of 2023

  • Reaffirmed full year 2023 consolidated production, cash cost and sustaining cash cost guidance for our Peru and Manitoba operations.

  • On June 20, 2023, Hudbay completed the acquisition of Copper Mountain, creating a 150,000-tonnes-per-year copper producer with three long-life mines in tier-one jurisdictions and a world-class pipeline of organic copper growth projects.

  • Copper Mountain owns 75% of the Copper Mountain mine in British Columbia (the "Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture"), with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation ("MMC") holding the remaining non-controlling interest.

  • Hudbay expects to release an updated technical report for the Copper Mountain mine in the fourth quarter, which will include updated annual production and cost estimates for the mine.

  • Achieved higher grades from Pampacancha in July with 1.6 million tonnes of ore mined at 0.63% copper and 0.31 grams per tonne gold, consistent with the mine plan and company expectations for higher production in Peru in the third and fourth quarters of 2023.

Second Quarter Operating and Financial Results

  • Consolidated production in the second quarter was 21,715 tonnes of copper and 48,996 ounces of gold, which includes production from the Copper Mountain mine during the 10-day stub period following the June 20, 2023 acquisition date.

  • Consolidated cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^, in the second quarter, were $1.60 and $2.73, respectively, excluding Copper Mountain's costs during the 10-day stub period.

  • Peru operations successfully managed through a transitional quarter with elevated stripping activities at Pampacancha completed in June to enable mining high grade portions of the orebody in the second half of 2023. The Peru operations maintained steady performance, producing 17,682 tonnes of copper in the second quarter, which was in line with mine plan expectations. Peru cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^, in the second quarter was $2.14, in line with quarterly cadence expectations as Pampacancha is expected to deliver higher copper production and precious metal by-product credits in the second half of 2023.

  • Manitoba operations produced 35,253 ounces of gold, which was impacted by lower throughput at the Stall mill due to downtime to complete the Stall mill Phase I recovery improvement project tie-ins which resulted in a buildup of surface ore stockpiles at the end of the second quarter. Lalor achieved an 11% increase in ore mined versus the first quarter as we continue to implement improvements to reduce costs and target higher production levels. Manitoba cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits^1^, was $1,097 and is expected to decline to be within the annual guidance range due to higher throughput, gold recoveries and gold grades expected in the second half of 2023.

  • Second quarter net loss and loss per share were $14.9 million and $0.05, respectively. After adjusting for $6.8 million of transaction costs incurred during the quarter associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and a non-cash gain of $4.7 million related to a quarterly revaluation of our closed site environmental reclamation provision, among other items, second quarter adjusted loss^1^ per share was $0.07.

  • Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $55.9 million and adjusted EBITDA^1^was $81.2 million in the second quarter.

  • Cash and cash equivalents declined during the second quarter to $179.7 million and were negatively impacted by lower base metal prices and lower production volumes as a result of scheduled mill maintenance programs, elevated stripping activity in Peru and a buildup of ore stockpiles in Manitoba. Cash and cash equivalents were also impacted by $25.8 million in total transaction costs related to the acquisition of Copper Mountain, $65.9 million of capital investments primarily related to sustaining capital investments, and a $31.9 million bond interest payment.

Executing on Growth Initiatives and Prudent Financial Planning

  • Copper Mountain integration activities are progressing in line with expectations with over 50% of the targeted annualized corporate and tax synergies already achieved to date. We are focused on advancing our plans to stabilize the operation over the next 12 months, to be further detailed in a technical report, which will include an updated mine plan and mineral reserve and resource estimates, expected to be released in the fourth quarter.

  • Copper World pre-feasibility study for Phase I is well-advanced and expected to be released in the third quarter.

  • Snow Lake drilling intersected new high-grade copper-gold-silver zone 500 metres northwest of Lalor and indicates the hosting mineralization at Lalor continues down plunge for at least two kilometres.

  • Completed the acquisition of the Cook Lake properties in Snow Lake, providing the potential for a new discovery on claims untested by modern geophysics and where historical drilling intersected base metal and gold mineralization at a fraction of Lalor's current known depth.

  • Announced the entry into a definitive agreement to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Rockcliff Metals Corp. ("Rockcliff"), which is expected to increase our land position within trucking distance of our Snow Lake processing facilities by more than 250%. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter.

  • On July 6, 2023, established framework for a multi-year exploration partnership with Marubeni Corporation focused on the discovery of new deposits within trucking distance of Hudbay's processing facilities in Flin Flon, Manitoba.

  • First phase of the Stall recovery improvement project was completed during the second quarter with commissioning completed in May and ramp-up to higher metal recoveries expected in the second half of 2023.

  • In connection with the Copper Mountain transaction, we amended our Revolving Credit Facilities ("RCFs") to (i) exclude the Copper Mountain group from the financial covenant calculations in the RCFs until the Copper Mountain Nordic bonds are repaid in full and (ii) increase the net debt to EBITDA covenant ratio to provide greater financial flexibility during the integration period.

  • Subsequent to quarter end, we drew $90 million from our RCFs to finance the redemption of a portion of Copper Mountain's Nordic bonds, thus improving our ability to deleverage and repay debt sooner than the bond maturity.

  • On track to deliver annual discretionary spending reduction targets for 2023 with lower growth capital and exploration expenditures compared to 2022. As a result of a continued focus on discretionary spending reductions, total capital expenditures for 2023 are expected to be approximately $15 million lower than guidance levels, representing 5% of total capital expenditure guidance.

Summary of Second Quarter Results

Cash generated from operating activities in the second quarter of 2023 decreased to $24.6 million compared to $165.6 million in the same quarter of 2022 predominantly due to a $73.0 million negative impact from changes in non-cash working capital as we executed a stripping campaign at Pampacancha to access high grade portions of the orebody in the second half of 2023. Operating cash flow before changes in working capital was $55.9 million during the second quarter of 2023, reflecting a decrease of $68.0 million compared to the same period of 2022. The decrease in operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was primarily the result of lower copper and zinc prices, lower copper, zinc and gold sales volumes due to the comparative period including 777 production, the buildup of approximately 45,000 tonnes of surface ore stockpiles in Manitoba as Stall mill Phase I recovery improvement project commissioning was completed as well as a second quarter scheduled plant maintenance shutdown in Peru and higher treatment and refining charges.

On June 20, 2023, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of Copper Mountain (the "Copper Mountain Transaction"). Copper Mountain's first shipment of copper concentrate following the acquisition occurred on July 23, 2023 after a brief strike at the Port of Vancouver earlier in July. As such, Hudbay's second quarter results were not materially affected by Copper Mountain's operations with no revenues or corresponding cost of sales recorded during the 10-day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter. As a result, we do not present revenue, cost of sales, metal sold, cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced net of by-product credits^1^ for the Copper Mountain mine in this MD&A. Combined acquisition-related costs incurred were $25.8 million, of which $6.8 million was expensed by Hudbay during the second quarter, mainly related to legal and advisory fees, share-based payments incurred prior to transaction close and change of control payments, while the remaining costs were incurred by Copper Mountain prior to completion of the acquisition.

Production in the second quarter of 2023 did not include any production from the 777 mine, which closed, as planned, in June 2022 and only included limited production from the Copper Mountain mine during the 10-day stub period. The comparison in this paragraph excludes the production from the 777 mine in the second quarter of 2022 to illustrate the comparative performance of our current operations. Consolidated copper production in the second quarter of 2023 decreased by 8% compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to executing a stripping campaign at Pampacancha as well as a scheduled mill maintenance program at Constancia. Consolidated gold production in the second quarter of 2023 decreased by 5% compared to the second quarter of 2022, mainly due to lower Peru mill throughput and lower New Britannia recoveries offset slightly by 5% higher gold ore grades in Manitoba. Consolidated silver production in the second quarter decreased by 22% compared to the same period in 2022. Consolidated zinc production in the second quarter of 2023 declined by 11% primarily due to lower throughput. For full historical production data (which includes production from the 777 mine), please refer to "Summary of Historical Results" section on page 59 of this MD&A.

Net loss and loss per share in the second quarter of 2023 were $14.9 million and $0.05, respectively, compared to net earnings and earnings per share of $32.1 million and $0.12, respectively, in the second quarter of 2022. The results were negatively impacted by $6.8 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and a $1.4 million foreign exchange loss. This was partially offset by a non-cash gain of $4.7 million related to the quarterly revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision at our closed sites and a $1.1 million revaluation gain related to the gold prepayment liability.

Adjusted net loss^1^and adjusted net loss per share^1^ in the second quarter of 2023 were $18.3 million and $0.07 per share, respectively, after adjusting for $6.8 million of transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Copper Mountain and the non-cash revaluation gain of the environmental reclamation provision, among other items. This compares to adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share of $30.5 million, and $0.12 in the same period of 2022. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA^1^was $81.2 million, compared to $141.4 million, compared to the same period in 2022.

In the second quarter of 2023, consolidated cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^, was $1.60, compared to $0.65 in the same period in 2022. This increase was mainly the result of significantly lower by-product credits and lower copper production. Consolidated cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^ for the first six months of 2023 was above our 2023 guidance ranges but remained in line with quarterly cadence expectations. Consolidated sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^, was $2.73 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $1.87 in the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily due to the same reasons outlined above partially offset by lower cash sustaining capital expenditures.

Consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits^1^, was $2.98 in the second quarter of 2023, higher than $1.93 in the same period in 2022, due to the same reasons outlined above as well as higher regional costs.

As at June 30, 2023, our liquidity included $179.7 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as undrawn availability of $184.1 million under our RCFs. Subsequent to quarter end, we drew $90 million from our RCFs to finance the redemption of $83.3 million of Copper Mountain's bonds, thereby reducing the aggregate amount of Copper Mountain bonds outstanding to $59.7 million and improving our ability to deleverage and repay debt sooner than the 2026 bond maturity. Based on expected free cash flow generation in the second half of 2023, we continue to expect to make progress on its deleveraging targets as outlined in its "3-P" plan for sanctioning Copper World. Current liquidity combined with cash flow from operations is expected to be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

* Mining activities at 777 were completed in June 2022

** British Columbia production in Q2 2023 represents a 10-day stub period of production after the June 20, 2023 transaction closing date.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Completion of the Copper Mountain Acquisition

On June 20, 2023, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of Copper Mountain, pursuant to which Hudbay has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Copper Mountain (the "Copper Mountain Transaction").

As a result of the completion of the Copper Mountain Transaction, Copper Mountain became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hudbay and Hudbay became the indirect owner of 75% of the Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture.

In aggregate, Hudbay issued 84,165,617 Hudbay common shares under the Copper Mountain Transaction to former Copper Mountain shareholders as consideration for their Copper Mountain shares. The Copper Mountain shares were de-listed from the TSX on June 21, 2023 and an application has been submitted with the applicable Canadian securities commissions for Copper Mountain to cease to be a reporting issuer under Canadian securities laws.

In connection with the closing of the Copper Mountain Transaction, Hudbay appointed Jeane Hull and Paula Rogers, former directors of Copper Mountain, to the board of Hudbay.

The Copper Mountain Transaction creates a premier Americas-focused copper mining company that is well-positioned to deliver sustainable cash flows from an operating portfolio of three long-life mines, as well as compelling organic growth from a world-class pipeline of copper mine expansion and development projects. All assets in the combined portfolio are located in the tier-one mining-friendly jurisdictions of Canada, Peru and the United States. The combined company represents the third largest copper producer in Canada based on 2023 estimated copper production.

Integrating the Copper Mountain Mine

Copper Mountain integration activities are progressing in line with expectations and over 50% of the targeted annualized corporate and tax synergies have already been achieved to date. We are focused on advancing our plans to stabilize the operation over the next 12 months, including opening up the mine by adding additional mining faces and re-mobilizing idle haul trucks, optimizing the ore feed to the plant and implementing plant improvement initiatives. Further details on our plans will be provided in a technical report, including an updated mine plan, revised mineral reserve and resource estimates, and updated annual production and cost estimates for the Copper Mountain mine, which is expected to be released in the fourth quarter.

During the Copper Mountain Stub Period, the Copper Mountain mine produced 1,239 tonnes of copper, 745 ounces of gold and 11,918 ounces of silver. The first copper concentrate shipment following the acquisition date was completed on July 23, 2023 after a brief strike at the Port of Vancouver earlier in July.

As an additional prudent measure to ensure free cash flow generation in the second half of 2023 as Hudbay stabilizes the Copper Mountain operations, subsequent to quarter end, the Copper Mountain Mine Joint Venture entered into forward sales contracts for a total of 2,000 tonnes of copper production over the five-month period from August to December 2023 at an average price of $3.86 per pound.

Copper World Permitting and Pre-Feasibility Study Well-Advanced

In late 2022, Hudbay submitted the state-level applications for an Aquifer Protection Permit and an Air Quality Permit to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality. We expect to receive these two outstanding state permits by early 2024.

In May 2023, we received a favourable ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that reversed the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's designation of the area near Copper World and the former Rosemont project as jaguar critical habitat. While this ruling doesn't impact the state permitting process for Phase I of Copper World, it is expected to simplify the federal permitting process for Phase II of the Copper World project.

Pre-feasibility activities for Phase I are well-advanced and a pre-feasibility study is expected to be released in the third quarter of 2023. We intend to initiate a minority joint venture partner process prior to commencing a definitive feasibility study, which will allow the potential joint venture partner to participate in the funding of definitive feasibility study activities in 2024 as well as in the final project design for Copper World.

Potential for Snow Lake Mine Life Extension with Discovery of New Mineralized Zones Near Lalor and Significant Regional Land Consolidation

In July 2023, the we announced positive results from our 2023 winter drill program near Lalor in Snow Lake, Manitoba, and significant land consolidation in the Snow Lake region through several strategic transactions. The agreements with multiple land holders will increase Hudbay's holdings in the Snow Lake region by more than 250%. We intend to explore these claims in hopes of finding a new anchor deposit to maximize and extend the life of our Snow Lake operations beyond 2038.

Lalor New Mineralized Zones

Our 2023 winter drill program in Snow Lake included the testing of a geophysical anomaly located northwest of Lalor, within 500 metres of existing underground infrastructure. All holes intersected an alteration zone that is known to host the Lalor mineralization. Certain holes intersected several sulphide horizons with both zinc and copper-gold-silver mineralization. Hole CH2303 intersected three mineralized zones, including 7.0 metres of 3.06% zinc and 15.1 grams per tonne silver; 3.5 metres of 3.81% copper, 3.75 grams per tonne gold and 104.5 grams per tonne silver; and 7.5 metres of 3.87% zinc and 7.5 grams per tonne silver. For more information on the drill holes, please refer to Hudbay's news release dated July 27, 2023.

The winter drill program also included testing of the down-plunge copper-gold extensions of the Lalor deposit, in the first drilling in the deeper zones at Lalor since the initial discovery of the copper-gold zones in 2009 and 2010. This initial campaign consisted of eight widely spaced drill holes over a distance of two kilometres, and all holes intersected the zone of strong alteration known to host the Lalor mineralization and have shown many occurrences of disseminated copper sulfides indicating the potential close proximity of one or more higher grade copper-gold feeder zones similar to Lens 27 currently in production at Lalor. These initial results from widely spaced drilling are an encouraging indication that the rocks hosting the rich copper-gold mineralization at Lalor continue down-plunge as predicted by Hudbay's geological models.

We expect to refine targets for our 2024 winter drilling campaign to the northwest and down-plunge from Lalor using the results from geophysical borehole surveys.

Acquisition of Cook Lake Properties in Snow Lake

In late June 2023, Hudbay completed the acquisition of the Cook Lake properties from Glencore plc. The Cook Lake properties are located within ten kilometres and along the same regional trend as our Lalor mine, and have the potential to host a new discovery at depth. The properties include the Cook Lake North and South properties, which are within 30 kilometres of Hudbay's Stall and New Britannia processing facilities.

Hudbay has received data regarding approximately 60,000 metres of historical drilling that was competed on the Cook Lake properties between 1971 and 2012, with an average depth of only 275 metres, which is a fraction of the depth of Lalor's current known mineralization of approximately 600 to 1,500 metres. The historical drill holes appear to have intersected base metal and copper-gold mineralization typical to the Snow Lake region. Although the historical data has not been validated by a qualified person, the mineralization indicates that there is the potential for new deposits on the same favourable mineralized horizons as many known deposits in the area, including the Lalor, 1901 and Chisel deposits. The Cook Lake properties are untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor mine.

Acquisition of Rockcliff to Consolidate Significant Land Package in Snow Lake

On June 19, 2023, Hudbay entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Rockcliff that we do not already own (the "Rockcliff Transaction"). Under the Rockcliff Transaction, Rockcliff shareholders will receive 0.006776 of a Hudbay common share for each Rockcliff common share held. The enterprise value to Hudbay, net of Rockcliff's cash, is approximately $13 million.

Rockcliff is one of the largest landholders in the Snow Lake area with more than 1,800 square kilometres across all of its properties. The completion of the Rockcliff Transaction will consolidate Hudbay's ownership of the Talbot deposit and provide us with additional exploration properties in the vicinity of our Stall and New Britannia mills, including the land adjacent to Hudbay's Pen II deposit, which is a low tonnage and high-grade zinc deposit that starts from surface and is located approximately six kilometres by road from the Lalor mine.

Completion of the Rockcliff Transaction is contingent upon court approval from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List), shareholder approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by Rockcliff shareholders at a special meeting scheduled to be held on August 31, 2023 and other customary conditions and stock exchange approvals. The Rockcliff Transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.

Advancing Metallurgical Testwork for the Flin Flon Tailings Reprocessing Opportunity

In 2021, Hudbay identified the opportunity to reprocess Flin Flon tailings where in excess of 100 million tonnes of tailings have been deposited for over 90 years. The company completed confirmatory drilling in 2022 which covered about two-thirds of the facility. The results indicated higher zinc, copper and silver grades than predicted from historical mill records while confirming the historical gold grade. Hudbay is completing metallurgical test work and evaluating metallurgical technologies, including the recent signing of a testwork agreement with Cobalt Blue Holdings Limited ("Cobalt Blue") to assess the processing viability of the Flin Flon tailings using Cobalt Blue's proprietary processing technology that recovers copper, zinc, gold and silver while converting sulphides into stable and benign sulphur.

Other Exploration Update

Constancia In-Mine Exploration

Hudbay continues to execute a limited drill program and technical evaluations at the Constancia deposit to confirm the economic viability of adding an additional mining phase to the current mine plan that would convert a portion of the mineral resources to mineral reserves. The results from this drill program and technical and economic evaluations are expected to be incorporated in the next annual mineral reserve and resource update.

Maria Reyna and Caballito Exploration

Hudbay controls a large, contiguous block of mineral rights with the potential to host satellite mineral deposits in close proximity to the Constancia processing facility, including the past producing Caballito property and the highly prospective Maria Reyna property. We commenced early exploration activities at Maria Reyna and Caballito after completing a surface rights exploration agreement with the community of Uchucarcco in August 2022. Surface investigation activities together with baseline environmental and archaeological activities necessary to support drill permit applications have been completed. Surface mapping and geochemical sampling confirm that both Caballito and Maria Reyna host sulfide and oxide rich copper mineralization in skarns, hydrothermal breccias and large porphyry intrusive bodies.

Lalor In-Mine Exploration

Hudbay continues to compile results from ongoing infill drilling at Lalor, which will be incorporated into the next annual mineral resource and reserve estimate update.

Flin Flon Exploration Partnership with Marubeni

On July 6, 2023 we announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") with Marubeni Corporation ("Marubeni") that establishes the framework for a multi-year exploration partnership focused on the discovery of new deposits on Hudbay's mineral properties within trucking distance of our processing facilities in Flin Flon, Manitoba. In connection with the MOU, Hudbay and Marubeni have agreed to negotiate the terms of a definitive agreement to govern the relationship between the parties and the Flin Flon properties that would form the subject of the exploration partnership (the "Project Properties"). It is currently contemplated that Marubeni would fund approximately $10 to $15 million of exploration expenditures on the Project Properties and that Hudbay will act as operator and carry out the exploration activities.

Dividend Declared

A semi-annual dividend of C$0.01 per share was declared on August 8, 2023. The dividend will be paid out on September 22, 2023 to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2023.

Total ore mined in the second quarter of 2023 decreased by 26% compared to the same period in 2022 mainly due to the completion of a higher stripping period at the Pampacancha pit in June, in line with our mine plan to access high grade ore phases later in 2023, and the planned processing of a significant amount of ore from stockpiles during the second quarter of 2023.

Ore milled during the second quarter of 2023 was 7% lower than the same period in 2022 mainly due to a scheduled plant maintenance shutdown in the second quarter of 2023 without a corresponding shutdown in the comparative period. Milled copper grades decreased by 3% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to lower-grade ore from stockpiles partially offset by increased mining of higher-grade copper ore from Pampacancha.

Recoveries of copper during the second quarter of 2023 were 6% lower while the recoveries for gold and silver were both 1% higher than the comparative 2022 period. Recoveries of copper decreased in the second quarter of 2023, as expected, due to higher levels of impurities in stockpile ore.

Year-to-date ore mined was 35% lower than the same period in 2022 due to the same factors as the quarterly variance as well as increased stockpile processing in order to ration fuel during the protests and civil unrest experienced in Peru in early 2023. Recoveries of copper, gold and silver in the first half of 2023 were 5%, 2% and 4% lower than the same period in 2022 due to higher levels of impurities in stockpile ore.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 were 17% higher primarily due to higher costs related to the scheduled mill maintenance program and lower milled ore throughput during the quarter.

Second quarter 2023 production of copper, gold and silver was 15%, 6% and 28% lower, respectively, than the comparative period in 2022 due to lower throughput and lower copper and silver grades. Production of molybdenum in the second quarter of 2023 was 6% higher than the comparative prior year period due to higher grades and recoveries.

Year-to-date 2023 production of copper, gold and silver was 5%, 2% and 11% lower, respectively, than the comparative period in 2023, while the production of molybdenum was 18% higher over the same timeframe. Year to date 2023 production declines were mainly related to lower recoveries from processing stockpile ore with higher contaminants.

With the period of higher planned stripping activities in the Pampacancha pit completed in June and ore mined from Pampacancha in July totaling 1.6 million tonnes at 0.63% copper and 0.31 grams per tonne gold, we are well on track to achieve the higher expected production in the second half of the year, in line with our full year 2023 Peru production guidance.

Cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2023 was $2.14, an increase of 18% compared to the same period in 2022 due to fewer pounds of copper produced, higher milling costs related to the scheduled mill maintenance program and higher treatment and refining charges, partially offset by higher by-product credits and higher capitalized stripping. This cost measure remains above the upper end of our 2023 guidance range. However, it is expected to decline meaningfully in the second half of 2023 and the full year cash cost is expected to remain within the 2023 guidance range with higher expected copper production and contributions from precious metal by-product credits from Pampacancha later this year.

Cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, for the first half of 2023 was $1.72, an increase of 2% compared to the same period in 2022 due to fewer pounds of copper produced, as well as higher milling, treatment and refining charges and freight costs, partially offset by higher by-product credits.

Sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, for the second quarter and for the first half of 2023 were 17% and 4% higher, respectively, than the comparative 2022 periods primarily due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above, partially offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures.

Peru's copper, gold and silver sales in the second quarter of 2023 were positively impacted by higher-than-normal unsold copper concentrate inventory levels at the end of the first quarter that were subsequently sold during the second quarter of 2023. Furthermore, payable gold and silver sales during the second quarter of 2023 were 72% and 38% higher, respectively, than the corresponding period in 2022 due to a precious metal stream sale that was recognized in revenue shortly after the first quarter cutoff date. Payable gold and silver included in this sale was approximately 4.5 thousand ounces of gold and 341 thousand ounces of silver.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Manitoba team continued to advance several key initiatives to support higher production levels and improved metal recoveries at our Snow Lake operations. Significant progress has been made at Lalor in optimizing the development drift size, improving shaft availability and implementing changes to achieve better stope muck fragmentation, which enabled the elimination of inefficient trucking of ore to surface via the ramp late in the second quarter. The first phase of the Stall mill recovery improvement project, consisting of new cyclone packs, state-of-the-art Jameson Cells on the copper and zinc circuits and process control improvements, was completed during the second quarter. Commissioning of the circuits quickly achieved targeted copper and zinc concentrate grades, while gold recovery improvements progressed slower than planned. Changes to optimize the circuit are underway and we expect to achieve higher gold recoveries in the second half of 2023. We also implemented tailings deposition improvements that have enabled us to maximize the Anderson facility tailings capacity and defer incremental dam construction activities to future years.

We successfully completed planned maintenance of the muck circuit, rock breaker boom change out and repairs and electrical installations at Lalor during the second quarter. Despite this planned maintenance program, ore mined from Lalor increased by 11% in the second quarter compared to the first quarter, averaging over 4,500 tonnes per day. Lalor continues to implement improvements to reduce costs and target higher production levels with a focus on equipment fleet availability and building of longhole inventory.

Total ore mined at our Manitoba operations during the second quarter of 2023 was 35% lower than the same period in 2022 mainly due to the planned closure of 777 in June 2022 which resulted in a significant decline in ore mined in the second quarter compared to the prior year period, which benefited from the full contribution of 777 mine production. Excluding 777 production, copper, gold and zinc grades mined during the second quarter of 2023 were 16%, 9% and 3% higher than the same period in 2022, respectively, while silver grades were 3% lower, compared to the same period in 2022, consistent with the mine plan.

Total ore mined at our Manitoba operations during the first half of 2023 was 39% lower than the same period in 2022 mainly due to the planned closure of 777 in June 2022 as noted above. Excluding 777 production, Lalor mined ore in the first half of 2023 was 2% lower than the same period in 2022. Gold grades mined during the first half of 2023 were 7% higher than the same period in 2022. Copper, zinc and silver grades mined at Lalor during the first half of 2023 were 8%, 9% and 11% lower, respectively, compared to the same period in 2022, consistent with the mine plan.

Total mine unit operating costs during the second quarter of 2023 increased by 4% compared to the same period in 2022.

Stall mill processed 9% less ore in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, in line with expectations, due to completion of the Phase I recovery improvement project during the quarter and the commissioning of new Jameson cells requiring associated tie-ins of piping, pump boxes and electrical instrumentation. The project was completed on schedule and within budget and has already yielded expected results with copper and zinc concentrates grades achieving target levels. Improvements in gold recovery is progressing slower than planned and changes are being made to optimize the circuit. As a result of the temporary interruptions introduced by the project tie-ins, there was a buildup of approximately 30,000 tonnes of base metal ore stockpiles above normal levels at the end of second quarter that will be milled during the second half of 2023. Compared to the same period in 2022, unit operating costs at the Stall mill were 9% higher during the second quarter of 2022 due to lower throughput.

New Britannia mill continued to achieve consistent production in the second quarter of 2023, averaging approximately 1,560 tonnes per day. We continue to advance improvement initiatives at New Britannia requiring minimal capital outlays with a focus on reducing reagent and grinding media consumption while further improving overall metal recoveries and copper concentrate grades. There was a buildup of approximately 15,000 tonnes of gold ore stockpiles above normal levels at the end of the second quarter, which will be milled during the second half of 2023. New Britannia unit operating costs increased by 5% during the second quarter of 2023 versus the same period of 2022, primarily due to slightly lower throughput.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 increased by 31%, compared to the same period in 2022 reflecting inflationary cost pressures on materials and consumables, lower mill throughput due, in part, to the 45,000 tonnes of additional ore stockpiled above normal operating levels at the end of the second quarter, and the standalone cost structure of Lalor compared to the same period in 2022, which included operating costs for both Lalor and the lower cost 777 mine. Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the first half of 2023 increased by 27% compared to the same period in 2022 due to the same reasons mentioned above.

The zinc plant in Flin Flon permanently ceased operations in June 2022 with no production in the second quarter of 2023. Closure activities commenced in the third quarter of 2022 and continue to progress safely during 2023.

Metal production during the second quarter of 2023 was lower than the comparative 2022 period due to lower volumes from the closure of 777 mine in June 2022, partially offset by higher copper, gold and zinc grades at Lalor. Manitoba's production of copper, gold, silver and zinc in the second quarter of 2023 was lower by 42%, 21%, 36% and 49%, respectively, than the comparative 2022 period for the reasons outlined above. Production of copper, gold, silver and zinc in the first half of 2023 was lower by 53%, 19%, 41% and 53%, respectively, than the comparative 2022 period mainly due to lower volumes from the closure of 777 mine in June 2022 and lower comparative base metal and silver grades.

With the completion of a number of key initiatives aimed to continue to support higher production levels at Lalor, improved metal recoveries at the mills and a prioritization of mining higher gold grade zones at Lalor in the second half of 2023, as planned, full year Manitoba production of all metals remains on track to achieve guidance ranges. However, with the slower ramp-up of gold recoveries associated with the Stall Phase 1 recovery improvement project in the second quarter, gold production is trending towards the lower end of the 2023 guidance range for Manitoba, while copper and zinc production is trending towards upper end of guidance ranges.

Cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2023 increased to $1,097 from the comparative 2022 period, primarily due to lower gold production given the lower throughput at Stall mill, significantly lower by-product credits and higher treatment and refining charges. This was partially offset by lower mining, milling, G&A, freight costs and the elimination of zinc refining costs due to the closure of 777 mine and the zinc plant in June 2022.

Cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits in the second quarter of 2023 was 37% above the upper end of our 2023 guidance range; however, it was significantly impacted by lower by-product credits, in accordance with the mine plan, and the buildup of surface ore stockpiles in front of the Stall and New Britannia mills. We expect this cost measure to decline meaningfully during the remainder of 2023 with increasing gold production from higher grade stopes, continued throughput increases at Lalor and the full realization of higher recoveries from the Stall mill Phase I recovery improvement project enabling full year cash costs to remain within the 2023 guidance range.

Sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits, for the second quarter of 2023 was $1,521, an increase of 193% from the comparative 2022 period primarily due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above, partially offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures.

Cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits, in the first half of 2023 was $1,017. These costs were higher compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to the same factors affecting second quarter 2023 cash cost noted above. Sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced, net of by-product credits, for the first half of 2023 was $1,427, an increase of 69% from the comparative 2022 period primarily due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above, partially offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures.

Our financial results presented within this "Financial Review" section have been largely unaffected by Copper Mountain's operations with no revenues or corresponding cost of sales recorded during the 10-day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter.

Financial Results

In the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a net loss of $14.9 million compared to a net profit of $32.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, representing a reduction in profit of $47.1 million. Year-to-date in 2023, we recorded a net loss of $9.5 million compared to a net profit of $95.9 million for the same period in 2022, representing a decrease in profit of $105.4 million

Revenue

Revenue for the second quarter of 2023 was $312.2 million, $103.3 million lower than the same period in 2022, primarily as a result of lower copper and zinc metal prices, lower copper, zinc and gold sales volumes and higher treatment and refining charges. Copper and zinc sales volumes were significantly lower than prior year due to the planned closure of the 777 mine in Manitoba in June 2022 contributing to higher production and sales in the comparative period.

Revenue for the first half of 2023 was $607.4 million, $186.7 million lower than the same period in 2022, mainly due to the same factors affecting the quarter-to-date variances described above partially offset by higher molybdenum prices.

The average realized price per unit sold does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

For sales of copper, zinc, gold and silver we may enter into non-hedge derivatives ("QP hedges") which are intended to manage the provisional pricing risk arising from quotational period terms in concentrate sales agreements. The gains and losses on QP hedges are included in the calculation of realized prices. We expect that gains and losses on QP hedges will offset provisional pricing adjustments on concentrate sales contracts.

Our realized prices for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, are summarized below:

^1^Realized prices exclude refining and treatment charges and are on the sale of finished metal or metal in concentrate. Realized prices include the effect of provisional pricing adjustments on prior period sales.

^2^ London Metal Exchange average for copper and zinc prices.

^3^ Includes sales of zinc concentrate and sales of zinc metal for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Zinc realized prices include premiums paid by customers for delivery of refined zinc metal, but exclude unrealized gains and losses related to non-hedge derivative contracts that are included in zinc revenues. Realized prices include the effect of provisional pricing adjustments on zinc concentrate.

^4^Sales of gold and silver from Constancia mine are subject to our precious metals stream agreement with Wheaton, pursuant to which we recognize deferred revenue for precious metals deliveries and also receive cash payments. Stream sales are included within realized prices and their respective deferred revenue and cash payment rates can be found on page 28 of this MD&A.

During the second quarter of 2023, we entered into a zero-cost collar program for approximately 10% of copper production expected in the second half of 2023. The program entails hedging 15.9 million pounds copper from July through to December 2023, inclusive, at an average floor price of $3.95 per pound and an average cap price of $4.28 per pound. The realized prices denoted above exclude the impact of derivative mark-to-market gains and losses on non-QP hedges which, if reflected above, would increase the realized copper price in the second quarter of 2023 by $0.09 per pound.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of average realized price per unit sold, by metal, to revenues as shown in the consolidated interim financial statements.

Total cost of sales for the second quarter of 2023 was $289.3 million, reflecting a decrease of $36.6 million from the second quarter of 2022. Peru cost of sales increased by $62.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to the same period of 2022 mainly due to changes in product inventory caused a significant drawdown of copper concentrate that had accumulated during the first quarter of 2023 as nation-wide road blockades prevented shipments for most of the first quarter. Peru cost of sales were also higher in the second quarter of 2023, versus the comparative 2022 period, due to higher milling costs primarily related to a scheduled mill maintenance program with no similar maintenance program in the comparative period as well as higher depreciation.

Manitoba cost of sales decreased by $98.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to the same period of 2022 as a result of the closure of the zinc plant in June 2022, decreases in the mining, milling and depreciation costs due to the planned closure of 777 and the Flin Flon mill, a reduction of general and administrative and freight costs, favourable movements in the foreign exchange rate as Manitoba's costs are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars and a higher relative buildup of copper concentrate inventory.

Total cost of sales for the first half of 2023 was $518.0 million, reflecting a decrease of $101.3 million from the same period in 2022. Peru cost of sales increased by $49.8 million mainly driven by higher depreciation, a higher relative drawdown of product inventory and higher milling costs due to a scheduled mill maintenance program. Manitoba cost of sales decreased by $151.1 million as a result of the same factors affecting the quarter-to-date Manitoba cost of sales variance described above.

For details on unit operating costs, refer to the respective tables in the "Operations Review" section of this MD&A.

For the second quarter of 2023, other significant variances in non-operating expenses, compared to the same period in 2022, include the following:

  • A comparative period Impairment - Arizona decreased **** by $95.0 million. The prior period had an impairment related to certain capitalized costs and assets associated with the previous stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit, which were determined to no longer be recoverable. No impairment was recorded in the comparative 2023 period.

- Re-evaluation adjustment - environmental provision decreased by $56.0 million due to the relative revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision on our Manitoba non-producing sites from changes in long term risk-free discount rates and inflation rates.

Given the long term nature of the reclamation cash flows, the related environmental reclamation provision is highly sensitive to changes in inflation rates and long-term risk-free discount rates and, as such, we may continue to experience significant quarterly closure cost provision revaluations.

- Selling and administrative expenses increased by $7.0 million compared to the same period in 2022, reflecting a higher share based compensation expense as a result of an increase in share price during the current year compared to the prior year.

- Other expenses increased by $15.2 million compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to a comparative period insurance recovery of $5.7 million and increases in care & maintenance costs for the Flin Flon concentrator and tailings impoundment area following the planned closure of the Flin Flon operations in the second quarter of 2022 as well as transaction costs incurred to complete the acquisition of Copper Mountain. Partially offsetting these impacts was a non-recurring comparative period expense for the restructuring of the Manitoba operations in preparation for the closure of the Flin Flon operations.

  • Exploration expenses decreased by $3.7 million reflecting a reduction in expensed exploration spending compared to the previous period.

For the year-to-date 2023, other significant variances in non-operating expenses, compared to the same period in 2022, include the following:

- Re-evaluation adjustment - environmental provision decreased by $127.6 million, for the same reasons outlined in the quarterly variance analysis.

  • A comparative period Impairment - Arizona decreased **** by $95.0 million, as outlined in the second quarterly variance analysis.

- Exploration expenses decreased by $14.1 million as Copper World drilling and exploration costs, which were mainly expensed in the comparative 2022 period, have since been completed with incremental Copper World exploration now being capitalized.

- Selling and administrative expenses increased by $4.4 million for the same reasons outlined in the quarterly variance analysis.

- Other expenses increased by $11.1 million for the same reasons outlined in the quarterly variance analysis.

Net finance expense during the second quarter ended June 30, 2023, increased by $6.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to a $6.3 million decrease in the change in relative revaluation of the gold prepayment liability net of revaluation losses on our equity investments held at period end and a $3.6 million increase in net foreign exchange losses. These increases were partially offset by a $3.1 million decrease in loss on disposal of investments compared to same quarter in 2022 as well as $1.3 million of additional interest income earned.

Net finance expense during the first half of 2023, increased by $4.3 million compared to the same period in 2022 due a $4.7 million increase in the change in relative revaluation of the gold prepayment liability and revaluation losses on our equity investments, and a $2.5 million increase in net foreign exchange losses. This was partially offset by a $2.5 million decrease in losses on disposal of investments and $2.7 million of additional interest income earned.

Tax Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, tax recoveries increased by $5.2 million and for the six months ended June 30, 2023, tax expense decreased by $18.3 million, compared to the same periods in 2022. The following table provides further details:

^1^Deferred tax expense (recovery) represents our draw down/increase of non-cash deferred income and mining tax assets/liabilities.

Income Tax Expense/Recovery

Applying the estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate of 26.3% to our loss before taxes of $13.3 million for the year-to-date of 2023 would have resulted in a tax recovery of approximately $3.5 million; however, we recorded an income tax recovery of $8.5 million. The significant items causing our effective income tax rate to be different than the 26.3% estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate include:

  • Deductible temporary differences with respect to Peru and Manitoba, relating to the decommissioning and restoration liabilities, were recognized as we have determined that it is probable that we will realize the recovery of these deferred tax assets based on the timing of the reversals of the deductible temporary differences and the future projected taxable profit of the operations. This resulted in a combined deferred tax recovery of $3.2 million.

  • Foreign exchange on the translation of deferred tax balances to group currency resulted in a deferred tax recovery of $7.1 million.

  • The tax expense with respect to our foreign operations are recorded using an income tax rate other than the Canadian statutory income tax rate of 26.3%, resulting in a tax expense of $4.7 million.

Mining Tax Expense

Applying the estimated Manitoba mining tax rate of 10.0% to our loss before taxes of $13.3 million for the second quarter of 2023 would have resulted in a tax expense of approximately $1.3 million; however, we recorded a mining tax expense of $4.7 million. Effective mining tax rates can vary significantly based on the composition of our earnings and the expected amount of mining taxable profits. Corporate costs and other costs not related to mining operations are not deductible in computing mining profits. A brief description of how mining taxes are calculated in our various business units is discussed below.

Manitoba

The Province of Manitoba imposes mining tax on profit related to the sale of mineral products mined in the Province of Manitoba (mining taxable profit) at the following rates:

  • 10% of total mining taxable profit if mining profit is C$50 million or less;

  • Between mining profit of C$50 and $C55 million, mining tax is equal to a minimum of C$5 million plus mining profit less C$50 million multiplied by 65%;

  • 15% of total mining taxable profit if mining profits are between C$55 million and C$100 million;

  • Between mining profit of C$100 million and C$105 million, mining tax is equal to a minimum of C$15 million plus mining profit less C$100 million multiplied by 57%; and

  • 17% of total mining taxable profit if mining profits exceed C$105 million.

We estimate that the tax rate that will be applicable when temporary differences reverse will be approximately 10.0%.

Peru

The Peruvian government imposes two parallel mining tax regimes, the Special Mining Tax and the Modified Royalty, on companies' operating mining income on a sliding scale, with progressive rates ranging from 2.0% to 8.4% and 1.0% to 12.0%, respectively. Based on financial forecasts, we have recorded a deferred tax liability as at June 30, 2023, at the tax rate we expect to apply when temporary differences reverse.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at June 30, 2023, our liquidity includes $179.7 million in cash as well as undrawn total availability of $184.1 million under our revolving credit facilities.

Subsequent to quarter end, we drew $90 million from our revolving credit facilities to finance the redemption of a portion of Copper Mountain's bonds, as described below.

Senior Unsecured Notes

We have $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.5% senior notes due April 2026 and $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior notes due April 2029.

In connection with the Copper Mountain Transaction, we designated the Copper Mountain group as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, as defined in the indentures governing our senior notes (the "Note Indentures"). As a result, Copper Mountain and its subsidiaries do not guarantee our obligations under the Note Indentures.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities

We have two senior secured revolving credit facilities with total commitments of $450 million ("the Credit Facilities") for our Canadian and Peruvian businesses and substantially similar terms and conditions.

In connection with the Copper Mountain Transaction, our Revolving Credit Facilities ("RCFs") were amended to allow Hudbay to designate the Copper Mountain Group of companies as Unrestricted Subsidiaries under the RCFs so that the debt, cash, interest and EBITDA are excluded from ratio calculations and the assets excluded from the RCF security package until the Copper Mountain bonds are repaid in full. In addition, the Net Debt to EBITDA covenant ratio was increased from 4:1 to 4.5:1 for the periods ending June 30 and September 30, 2023, to provide greater financial flexibility during the business integration period.

At June 30, 2023, we had $40.0 million outstanding under our Canadian revolving credit facility. As at June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with our covenants under the Credit Facilities and had also drawn $26.1 million in letters of credit under the Credit Facilities. In total, $66.1 million was owing under the Credit Facilities as at June 30, 2023.

C$130 Million Bilateral Letter of Credit Facility

On August 22, 2022, we closed a C$130.0 million bilateral letter of credit facility ("LC Facility") with a major Canadian financial institution. The LC Facility enables the Company to issue up to C$130.0 million of letters of credit to beneficiaries on an unsecured basis at attractive rates, with a further C$30.0 million sub-limit for financial letters of credit. This facility was permitted under the existing terms the Credit Facilities and has no financial covenants. As at June 30, 2023, the Manitoba business unit had drawn $58.0 million in letters of credit under the LC Facility.

Surety Bonds

As at June 30, 2023, the Arizona business unit had $12.8 million in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and closure obligations. The Peru business unit also had $118.0 million in letters of credit issued with various Peruvian financial institutions to support future reclamation and other operating matters. The British Columbia business unit had $15.9 million in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and $3.9 million in surety bonds issued to support the hydro used at Copper Mountain Mine. No cash collateral is required to be posted under these letters of credit or surety bonds.

Gold Prepay

During the fourth quarter of 2020, we entered into a gold forward sale and prepay transaction which generated $115.0 million in cash proceeds to pre-fund the expected capital requirements for the New Britannia gold mill refurbishment project. The transaction valued the future gold ounce delivery obligation at 79,954 gold ounces to be delivered in fixed monthly deliveries of 3,331 gold ounces over a 24-month period from January 2022 to December 2023.

During the first quarter of 2023, we amended our gold forward sale and prepay agreements to defer eight months of deliveries starting with February 2023. Deliveries of the outstanding 37,500 ounces of gold will resume in fixed monthly amounts starting in October 2023 until August 2024. The fair value of the financial liability at June 30, 2023 was $69.9 million.

Copper Mountain Bonds

On April 9, 2021, Copper Mountain completed an offering of $250 million of secured bonds ("the Bonds"). The Bonds mature on April 9, 2026 and bear interest at an annual rate of 8.0%, payable semi-annually on April 9 and October 9. Semi-annual principal installments in the amount of $5 million are payable on each interest payment date. As at June 30, 2023, the Company had $3.7 million on deposit in a debt service account to satisfy the upcoming semi-annual principal installment and interest payment. The debt service account balance is presented as restricted cash within other financial assets in our consolidated interim balance sheet.

The Bonds are secured by a general security agreement on the assets of Copper Mountain and a pledge of Copper Mountain's equity interest in the Copper Mountain mine, but do not benefit from any credit support from Hudbay or its other subsidiaries.

The Bonds require Copper Mountain to comply with certain covenants, including restrictions on dividends and indebtedness and a requirement to maintain certain minimum cash amounts at Copper Mountain and the Copper Mountain mine. As at June 30, 2023, the Company is in compliance with our financial covenants under the Bonds.

The Bonds also provide the bondholders with the right to put all or part of the principal amount of the outstanding Bonds to Copper Mountain at a price of 101%, plus accrued interest, following a change of control event. With the acquisition of Copper Mountain on June 20, 2023, the change of control event was triggered and $83.3 million of the Bonds were put to Copper Mountain on July 17, 2023. As described above, the Company utilized its Credit Facilities to finance the redemption of the Bonds that were put to Copper Mountain.

Copper Mountain may redeem all or part of the principal amount of the remaining outstanding Bonds at any time from October 2023, at redemption prices ranging from 104% to 100%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

As at June 30, 2023, the Bonds had a principal amount outstanding of $143.0 million. As at the date hereof, the Bonds have a principal amount outstanding of $59.7 million.

Financial Condition

Financial Condition as at June 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022

Cash decreased by $45.9 million during the first half of the year to $179.7 million as at June 30, 2023. This decrease was mainly the result of investing and financing cash outflows of $135.5 million for capital investments and community agreements primarily at our Peru and Manitoba operations, interest payments of $31.9 million, lease payments of $10.4 million, partial repayment of our gold prepayment liability of $6.4 million, other financing costs mainly related to our revolving credit facilities and withholding taxes of $6.2 million, $5.0 million for a scheduled payment related to the Rosemont acquisition as well as dividends paid of $1.9 million. Offsetting these outflows were cash inflows from operating activities of $95.8 million, $40.0 million draw on our Credit Facilities, $3.1 million of interest received and $10.7 million of net cash acquired on the closing of the Copper Mountain acquisition. We hold the majority of our cash in low-risk, liquid investments with major Canadian and Peruvian financial institutions.

Working capital decreased by $137.9 million to negative $61.4 million from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023, primarily due to a $145.0 million increase in the current portion of long term debt related to Copper Mountain Bonds that had a put option outstanding at June 30, 2023, which required the Bonds to be presented as current. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, $83.3 million of the Bonds were put to Copper Mountain on July 17, 2023. We drew $90 million from our revolving credit facilities to finance the redemption of this portion of the Bonds. Working capital also decreased due to a decrease in cash of $45.9 million, an increase in deferred revenue of $23.8 million, a decrease in trade receivables of $23.6 million mainly related to timing of sales receivables and an increase in lease liabilities of $14.8 million. Partially offsetting these items was a $65.5 million increase in inventories due, in part, to the buildup of approximately 45,000 tonnes of surface ore stockpiles in front of Stall and New Britannia mills, a $20.8 million decrease in other financial liabilities and a corresponding $21.3 million increase in other financial assets due to an increase in the value of commodity hedges as commodity prices eased off during the period, an increase in restricted cash from the acquisition of Copper Mountain, a $19.1 million decrease in other liabilities due to a decline in advances from customers and a $14.1 million decrease in current gold prepayment liability due to timing of gold delivery obligations.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022:

(in $ thousands) Three months ended Six months ended
Jun. 30,2023 Jun. 30,<br>2022 Jun. 30,2023 Jun. 30,<br>2022
Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital 55,878 123,911 141,486 200,964
Change in non-cash working capital (31,321 ) 41,695 (45,650 ) 27,949
Cash generated from operating activities 24,557 165,606 95,836 228,913
Cash used in investing activities (55,921 ) (78,854 ) (120,997 ) (134,586 )
Cash used in financing activities (45,123 ) (41,470 ) (21,878 ) (106,189 )

(Decrease) increase in cash (75,829 ) 45,197 (45,931 ) (12,433 )

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash generated from operating activities was $24.6 million during the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $141.0 million compared with the same period in 2022 predominantly due to a $73.0 negative impact from changes in non-cash working capital. Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $55.9 million during the second quarter of 2023, reflecting a decrease of $68.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in operating cash flows before changes in working capital was primarily the result of lower copper and zinc prices, lower copper, zinc and gold sales volumes due to the comparative period including 777 production, the buildup of approximately 45,000 tonnes of surface ore stockpiles in Manitoba as the commissioning of the Stall mill Phase I recovery improvement project was completed as well as a second quarter scheduled plant maintenance shutdown in Peru and higher treatment and refining charges.

Year-to-date cash generated from operating activities was $95.8 million in 2023, a decrease of $133.1 million compared to 2022. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital for the first half of 2023 was $141.5 million, a decrease of $59.5 million compared to 2022. The decrease in operating cash flow before changes in working capital is mostly attributable to the same reasons outlined in the quarterly variance, partially offset by higher molybdenum prices and sales volumes.

Cash Flow from Investing and Financing Activities

During the second quarter of 2023, we spent $101.0 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by $65.9 million in capital expenditures, $2.7 million in community agreement payments, $31.9 million in interest payments, $5.1 million in capitalized lease payments, $5.0 million in deferred Rosemont acquisition payment and $3.0 million in other financing costs mainly related to our revolving credit facilities and withholding taxes. These cash outflows were partially offset by $1.5 million of interest received and $10.7 million of net cash acquired on the closing of the Copper Mountain acquisition.

Year-to-date, we used $142.9 million of cash in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by $130.8 million of capital expenditures, $4.6 million in community agreements, $31.9 million of interest payments, $10.4 million in lease payments, $6.4 million in partial settlement of our gold prepayment liability, $6.2 million in other financing costs mainly related to our revolving credit facilities and withholding taxes, $5.0 million for a scheduled payment related to the Rosemont acquisition and $1.9 million in dividend payments. These cash outflows were partially offset by a $40.0 million draw on our Credit Facilities, $3.1 million of interest received and $10.7 million of net cash acquired on the closing of the Copper Mountain acquisition.

All values are in US Dollars.

^1^Peru sustaining capital expenditures include capitalized stripping costs.

^2^ Other capitalized costs primarily include right-of-use lease additions, which are excluded from guidance in 2023.

^3^ Following completion of the Copper Mountain acquisition on June 20, 2023, the Company's capital additions have not been materially affected by Copper Mountain's operations during the 10-day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, total capital additions declined by 29% and 20%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022 as a result of lower sustaining capital expenditures in Manitoba, lower growth spending in Arizona and Manitoba, partially offset by higher sustaining and growth capital expenditures in Peru.

Sustaining capital expenditures in Manitoba for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $12.5 million, and $24.1 million, respectively representing a decline of $21.3 million and $33.7 million compared to the same period in 2022 due to lower spending at Anderson tailings and lower capital development at Lalor in 2023. Sustaining capital expenditures in Peru for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $28.7 million and $57.8 million respectively, representing an increase of $0.6 million and $10.8 million compared to the same period in 2022. The increases mainly relate to increased capitalized stripping at Pampacancha.

Growth capital spending in Manitoba for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $5.1 million and $13.5 million, respectively, which mainly relates to the Stall mill recovery improvement project, which has now been completed. Growth capital expenditures in Peru for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $9.9 million and $11.7 million, respectively, representing an increase of $9.8 million and $11.5 million compared to the same period in 2022 and mainly relate to planned spending on copper and molybdenum recovery improvement projects in 2023.

Arizona's capital expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $5.5 million and $11.6 million, respectively, and mainly relate to pre-feasibility study costs and Copper World carrying costs.

Other capitalized costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $7.3 million and $10.2 million, respectively, which are mostly made up of non-cash capitalized costs.

We expect consolidated sustaining, growth and capitalized exploration in 2023 to be approximately $15 million lower than our full year guidance.

Capital Commitments

As at June 30, 2023, we had outstanding capital commitments in Canada of approximately $34.9 million, of which $30.6 million can be terminated, approximately $27.6 million in Peru primarily related to exploration option agreements, all of which can be terminated, and approximately $42.7 million in Arizona, primarily related to our Copper World project, of which approximately $7.2 million can be terminated.

Outstanding Share Data

As of August 4, 2023, the final trading day prior to the date of this MD&A, there were 346,225,631 common shares of Hudbay issued and outstanding. In addition, there were 2,246,363 stock options outstanding.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Business Integration Risk with Copper Mountain

Hudbay's expectations with respect to the financial benefits of the Copper Mountain Transaction were based on its internal projections of Copper Mountain's business and operations as well as those prepared by the Copper Mountain management team prior to completion of the transaction (together, the "Projections"). All such Projections were based on assumptions and information available at the time the Projections were prepared to, among other things, assist Hudbay in evaluating the Copper Mountain Transaction. Since acquiring ownership of the Copper Mountain mine, Hudbay's focus has been on engaging with key stakeholders and advancing its plans to stabilize the operation over the next 12 months and sustainably operate it in future years, which will be further detailed in a technical report and updated mine plan and mineral reserve and resource estimates for Copper Mountain to be released in the fourth quarter of 2023. Hudbay does not know whether the results of its technical report will be consistent with the assumptions made in the Projections or whether the Projections (which are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties) will be realized. As a result of these contingencies, there can be no assurance that Hudbay's expectations with respect to the financial benefits of the Copper Mountain Transaction will be realized or that actual results will not be significantly higher or lower than expected. Further, the Projections were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or toward compliance with IFRS, published guidelines of applicable securities regulatory authorities or the guidelines established by the Chartered Professional Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information. No independent accountants, have compiled, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to the Projections, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability.

In addition, the ability to realize the benefits of the Copper Mountain Transaction will depend in part on, among other things, building relationships with key stakeholders and successfully consolidating functions and integrating operations, procedures and personnel in a timely and efficient manner, as well as on Hudbay's ability to realize the anticipated growth opportunities and synergies from integrating Copper Mountain's business following completion of the Copper Mountain Transaction. Integration activities have been progressing well to date. Successfully completing the business integration will require the dedication of management effort, time and resources which may divert management's focus and resources from other strategic opportunities available to Hudbay and from operational matters during this process. There can be no assurance that management will be able to integrate the operations of Copper Mountain's business successfully and realize the anticipated financial benefits. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of the respective ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the ability of management to maintain relationships with key stakeholders or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction. Any inability of management to successfully build relationships with key stakeholders and integrate the operations could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of Hudbay.

Implication of Copper World Pre-feasibility Study on Phase I of Copper World and Copper Mountain Technical Report

As with any change in mine plan, or new technical report or pre-feasibility assessment, there is a risk that the timing and extent of operating and capital expenditures may result in an indicator of impairment or impairment reversal. In the case of the forthcoming Copper World pre-feasibility study, management will assess impairment considerations with respect to changes in timing and expenditures to support the development of Copper World. In the case of the forthcoming Copper Mountain technical report, management will assess impairment considerations with respect to changes in timing and expenditures on Copper Mountain.

^2^Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital.

^3^Gross profit (loss) includes $147.3 million and $46.2 million, respectively, of impairment losses related to environmental reclamation provision for the now closed Flin Flon operation for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021.

Commodity prices have generally rebounded and remained elevated in the first half of 2023, but these increases have also been accompanied by inflationary pressures on consumables, labour and supplies, which has put pressure on mine operating costs, sustaining cash costs, gross profit and operating cash flow particularly in the second quarter. The second quarter saw a drawdown of higher-than-normal unsold copper concentrate inventory levels in Peru that had built up due to supply chain disruptions during a short period of social and political unrest in the first quarter. The second quarter results also reflected the impact of the Copper Mountain acquisition which closed on June 20, 2023. There was a minimal impact to net earnings during the 10-day stub period at the end of the second quarter.

Average gold prices during the first quarter reached levels not seen since 2020, which positively impacted first quarter gross profit. Political unrest in Peru resulted in road blockades causing logistics and supply chain disruptions until mid-February 2023, resulting in a buildup of copper concentrate inventory above normal operating levels, affecting overall revenues and profit in the first quarter.

The easing of domestic COVID measures by China during the fourth quarter of 2022 resulted in a rebound of most industrial commodity prices. However, late in the quarter, Peru experienced heightened tensions and social unrest following a change in the country's political leadership. Inflationary pressures on fuel, consumables and energy costs have persisted globally, negatively impacting our production costs and margins.

Fourth quarter revenues were negatively impacted by lower production due to planned maintenance programs at Lalor and Constancia, the planned closure of 777 earlier in the year, short-term changes in the mine plan in Peru and a build up of product inventory in Peru due to the aforementioned social unrest. The revenue impact of lower throughput was partially offset by higher commodity prices. Additionally, the fourth quarter results were impacted by a non-cash loss of $13.5 million related to the quarterly revaluation of our Flin Flon environmental reclamation provision due to changes in real, long-term discount rates.

Commodity prices declined during the third quarter of 2022 while growing inflationary pressures contributed to higher mine operating costs resulting in declines in our key financial metrics during the quarter. Third quarter results were also impacted by lower production due to the closure of 777 in the second quarter of 2022 and the commencement of care and maintenance activities, which will continue for the next several years. Relatively small movements in real, long-term discount rates will continue to impact the revaluation of our environmental reclamation provisions for closed sites in Manitoba and these movements will be reflected through the income statement.

The second quarter results for 2022 were impacted by a revaluation gain of $60.7 million pertaining mostly to the environmental reclamation provision on our Flin Flon site due to increases in long-term risk-free interest rates. A pre-tax impairment loss of $95.0 million was recorded following the release of the Copper World Preliminary Economic Assessment in June 2022 as certain assets associated with the previous, stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit are no longer expected to be recoverable.

Results in the first quarter of 2022 benefited from a trend of higher realized base metal prices, but were also impacted by rising operating costs caused by inflation. While we achieved increased gold production from the higher grade Pampacancha deposit and the higher recovery New Britannia gold mill, we experienced increased levels of COVID-19 related absenteeism in the workforce, impacting production, and also experienced limited availability of rail cars leading to reduced sales and an inventory build-up. The second quarter results were also impacted by a revaluation gain of $78.2 million pertaining mostly to the environmental reclamation provision on our Flin Flon site and $1.7 million for our non-producing sites in Manitoba caused by an increase in long-term risk-free interest rates.

Results for the fourth quarter of 2021 benefited from higher realized metal prices. This strength in commodity prices combined with higher gold production following the commencement of commercial production at New Britannia and improving copper recoveries led to record revenue of $425.2 million during the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow both reached record highs. Notwithstanding these records, continued inflationary pressures along with lower copper grades caused operating costs to climb and put pressure on gross margins, compared to earlier quarters. A revaluation of our environmental reclamation provision for the Flin Flon closure plan resulted in a $46.2 million non-cash charge, which negatively impacted net income for the quarter.

During the third quarter of 2021, increasing base metal prices contributed to strong revenues and operating cash flow. Mining at Pampacancha continued to ramp-up, contributing significantly to gold production during the quarter. As a result of the planned closure of Flin Flon operations in mid-2022 and an updated Flin Flon closure plan, non-cash charges totaling $156.3 million were incurred, which negatively impacted gross profit for the quarter. In Peru, ongoing COVID-19 costs, along with lower copper grades, put pressure on operating costs.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Adjusted net earnings (loss), adjusted net earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA, realized prices, net debt, cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, cash cost and sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced and combined unit cost are non-IFRS performance measures. These measures do not have a meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with IFRS and are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Management believes adjusted net earnings (loss) and adjusted net earnings (loss) per share provides an alternate measure of the Company's performance for the current period and gives insight into its expected performance in future periods. These measures are used internally by the Company to evaluate the performance of its underlying operations and to assist with its planning and forecasting of future operating results. As such, the Company believes these measures are useful to investors in assessing the Company's underlying performance. We provide adjusted EBITDA to help users analyze our results and to provide additional information about our ongoing cash generating potential in order to assess our capacity to service and repay debt, carry out investments and cover working capital needs. Realized price is shown to understand the average realized price of metals sold to third parties in each reporting period. Net debt is shown because it is a performance measure used by the Company to assess our financial position. Cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced are shown because we believe they help investors and management assess the performance of our operations, including the margin generated by the operations and the Company. Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per ounce of gold produced are shown because we believe they help investors and management assess the performance of our Manitoba operations. Combined unit cost is shown because we believe it helps investors and management assess our cost structure and margins that are not impacted by variability in by-product commodity prices.

Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss)

Adjusted net earnings (loss) represents net earnings (loss) excluding certain impacts, net of taxes, such as mark-to-market adjustments, impairment charges and reversal of impairment charges, write-down of assets, revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision for closed sites, and foreign exchange (gain) loss. These measures are not necessarily indicative of net earnings (loss) or cash flows as determined under IFRS.

The following table provides a reconciliation of earnings (loss) per the consolidated interim income statements, to adjusted net earnings (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

After adjusting reported net earnings for those items not considered representative of the Company's core business or indicative of future operations, the Company had an adjusted net loss in the second quarter of 2023 of $18.3 million or $0.07 loss per share.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is profit or loss before net finance expense/income, tax expense/recoveries, depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment and deferred revenue, as well as certain other adjustments. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by excluding certain adjustments included within our adjusted net earnings measure which we believe reflects the underlying performance of our core operating activities. The measure also removes the impact of non-cash items and financing costs that are not associated with measuring the underlying performance of our operations. However, our adjusted EBITDA is not the measure defined as EBITDA under our senior notes or revolving credit facilities and may not be comparable with performance measures with the same name reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for profit or loss or as a better measure of liquidity than operating cash flow, which are calculated in accordance with IFRS. We provide adjusted EBITDA to help users analyze our results and to provide additional information about our ongoing cash generating potential in order to assess our capacity to service and repay debt, carry out investments and cover working capital needs.

The following table presents the reconciliation of earnings (loss) per the consolidated interim income statements, to adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Cash Cost, Sustaining and All-in Sustaining Cash Cost (Copper Basis)

Cash cost per pound of copper produced ("cash cost") is a non-IFRS measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of our operations. Our calculation designates copper as our primary metal of production as it has been the largest component of revenues. The calculation is presented in four manners:

  • Cash cost, before by-product credits - This measure is gross of by-product revenues and is a function of the efforts and costs incurred to mine and process all ore mined. However, the measure divides this aggregate cost over only pounds of copper produced, our primary metal of production. This measure is generally less volatile from period to period, as it is not affected by changes in the price received for by-product metals. It is, however, significantly affected by the relative mix of copper concentrate and finished zinc production, where the sale of the zinc will occur later, and an increase in production of zinc metal will tend to result in an increase in cash cost under this measure.

  • Cash cost, net of by-product credits - In order to calculate the net cost to produce and sell copper, the net of by-product credits measure subtracts the revenues realized from the sale of the metals other than copper. The by-product revenues from zinc, gold, and silver are significant and are integral to the economics of our operations. The economics that support our decision to produce and sell copper would be different if we did not receive revenues from the other significant metals being extracted and processed. This measure provides management and investors with an indication of the minimum copper price consistent with positive operating margins, assuming realized by-product metal prices are consistent with those prevailing during the reporting period. It also serves as an important operating statistic that management and investors utilize to measure our operating performance versus that of our competitors. However, it is important to understand that if by-product metal prices decline alongside copper prices, the cash cost net of by-product credits would increase, requiring a higher copper price than that reported to maintain positive cash flows and operating margins.

  • Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits - This measure is an extension of cash cost that includes cash sustaining capital expenditures, including payments on capitalized leases, capitalized sustaining exploration, net smelter returns royalties, payments on certain long-term community agreements, as well as accretion and amortization for expected decommissioning activities for producing assets. It does not include corporate selling and administrative expenses. It provides a more fulsome measurement of the cost of sustaining production than cash cost, which is focused on operating costs only.

- All-in sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits - This measure is an extension of sustaining cash cost that includes corporate G&A, regional costs, accretion and amortization for community agreements relating to current operations, and accretion for expected decommissioning activities for non-producing sites. Due to the inclusion of corporate selling and administrative expenses, all-in sustaining cash cost is presented on a consolidated basis only.

The tables below present a detailed build-up of cash cost and sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, by business unit in addition to consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, and reconciliations between cash cost, net of by-product credits, to the most comparable IFRS measures of cost of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Cash cost, net of by-product credits may not calculate exactly based on amounts presented in the tables below due to rounding.

Gold Cash Cost and Gold Sustaining Cash Cost

Cash cost per ounce of gold produced ("gold cash cost") is a non-IFRS measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of our Manitoba operations. This alternative cash cost calculation designates gold as the primary metal of production as it represents a substantial component of revenues for our Manitoba business unit and should therefore be less volatile over time than Manitoba cash cost per pound of copper. The calculation is presented in three manners:

  • Gold cash cost, before by-product credits - This measure is gross of by-product revenues and is a function of the efforts and costs incurred to mine and process all ore mined. However, the measure divides this aggregate cost over only ounces of gold produced, the assumed primary metal of production. This measure is generally less volatile from period to period, as it is not affected by changes in the price received for by-product metals.

  • Gold cash cost, net of by-product credits - In order to calculate the net cost to produce and sell gold, the net of by-product credits measure subtracts the revenues realized from the sale of the metals other than gold. The by-product revenues from copper, zinc, and silver are significant and are integral to the economics of our Manitoba operation. The economics that support our decision to produce and sell gold would be different if we did not receive revenues from the other significant metals being extracted and processed. This measure provides management and investors with an indication of the minimum gold price consistent with positive operating margins, assuming realized by-product metal prices are consistent with those prevailing during the reporting period. It also serves as an important operating statistic that management and investors utilize to measure our operating performance at our Manitoba operation versus that of our competitors. However, it is important to understand that if by-product metal prices decline alongside gold prices, the gold cash cost net of by-product credits would increase, requiring a higher gold price than that reported to maintain positive cash flows and operating margins.

Combined Unit Cost

Combined unit cost ("unit cost") and zinc plant unit cost is a non-IFRS measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of our mining and milling operations. Combined unit cost is calculated by dividing the cost of sales by mill throughput. This measure is utilized by management and investors to assess our cost structure and margins and compare it to similar information provided by other companies in our industry. Unlike cash cost, this measure is not impacted by variability in by-product commodity prices since there are no by-product deductions; costs associated with profit-sharing and similar costs are excluded because of their correlation to external metal prices. In addition, the unit costs are reported in the functional currency of the operation which minimizes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. In all, the unit cost measures provide an alternative perspective on operating cost performance with minimal impact from external market prices.

The tables below present a detailed combined unit cost for the Peru and Manitoba business unit, and reconciliations between these measures to the most comparable IFRS measures of cost of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND CRITICAL ESTIMATES

New standards and interpretations adopted and not yet adopted

For information on new standards and interpretations adopted and not yet adopted, refer to note 4 of our June 30, 2023 consolidated interim financial statements.

Estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires us to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated interim financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

We review these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis based on our experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Certain accounting estimates and judgements have been identified as being "critical" to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations because they require us to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain; or there is a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions and estimates.

For more information on judgements and estimates, refer to note 2 of our June 30, 2023 consolidated interim financial statements.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR"). ICFR is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated interim financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.

Limitation on Scope of Design

Management has determined to limit the scope of design of disclosure controls and procedures ("DC&P") and ICFR to exclude controls, policies and procedures of Copper Mountain, which Hudbay acquired on June 20, 2023. Copper Mountain's total assets, net assets, total revenues and net loss on a combined basis constitute approximately 19%%, 27%%, 0% and 0%, respectively, of the consolidated interim financial statement amounts as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This scope of limitation is in accordance with section 3.3(1)(b) of NI 52-109, which allows for an issuer to limit the design of DC&P or ICFR to exclude a business that the issuer acquired not more than 365 days before the end of the financial period to which the Chief Executive Officer's and Chief Financial Officer's certification of interim filings relate.

Other than related to the aforementioned acquisition of Copper Mountain, we did not make any changes to ICFR during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our ICFR.
