Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hudbay Minerals reported stronger mid‑2026 results. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, revenue was $631.3 million versus $536.4 million a year earlier, with gross profit of $269.0 million versus $176.5 million. Net income was $138.1 million, up from $114.7 million, and basic and diluted earnings per share rose to $0.34 from $0.30.

For the six‑month period, revenue reached $1,388.6 million compared with $1,131.3 million, and net income increased to $329.6 million from $213.9 million, or $0.82 per share versus $0.55. Operating cash flow before working capital was $418.8 million, and after working‑capital movements cash generated from operations was $508.3 million, contributing to a period‑end cash balance of $890.9 million.

Hudbay completed significant strategic transactions. It acquired all remaining shares of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company through an all‑share asset acquisition that recognized a $1,357.0 million exploration property at the Cactus project and issued 46,794,082 Hudbay shares. It also formed a Copper World joint venture with Mitsubishi, recording $422.7 million of cash and $169.8 million of deferred consideration for a 30% non‑controlling interest. On the financing side, Hudbay repaid $472.5 million of 4.50% senior notes due 2026, drew $272.0 million on its revolving credit facility, and issued $52.0 million of 4.50% municipal bonds, leaving total long‑term debt at $860.2 million.

Filing Explained

At June 30, 2026, $334.5 million of cash and $49.8 million of bond proceeds were ring-fenced, while new land-payment obligations remained outstanding.

This Form 6-K furnishes Hudbay’s unaudited interim financial statements and related management discussion for the period ended June 30, 2026. At that date, some reported cash was earmarked for specific projects rather than general group use.

Of the reported cash and cash equivalents, $334.5 million was held at Copper World and designated for its exclusive use. Separately, $49.8 million of municipal-bond proceeds was restricted to qualifying Copper World expenditures, limiting the portion of reported liquidity available for other operations or debt service.

Outstanding capital commitments were $54.9 million in Manitoba, $14.0 million in British Columbia, $19.2 million in Peru and $114.5 million in Arizona; the filing states that most of the Manitoba and Arizona commitments could be terminated, while none in British Columbia could be terminated.

The Arizona Sonoran transaction also left deferred land-payment liabilities, including $5.0 million installments in each year from 2026 through 2028 and $82.2 million due on August 28, 2029. The filing identifies those installments and the expected use of the restricted bond proceeds within the next 12 months as the relevant liquidity milestones.

Q2 2026 Revenue $631.3 million Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026
Q2 2026 Net Income $138.1 million Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2026
H1 2026 Revenue $1,388.6 million Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026
H1 2026 Net Income $329.6 million Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026
Cash and Cash Equivalents $890.9 million Cash balance as of June 30, 2026
Repayment of 2026 Senior Notes $472.5 million Principal of 4.50% senior notes due 2026 repaid on April 1, 2026
Copper World JV Cash Consideration $422.7 million Cash received at closing of Mitsubishi’s 30% investment in Copper World
streaming arrangements financial
"Accretion on streaming arrangements (note 18) was $9.0 million year-to-date"
deferred consideration receivable financial
"The deferred consideration receivable of $169.8 million will be accreted up to $180 million"
non-controlling interest financial
"Mitsubishi completed its strategic investment for a 30% minority non-controlling interest in Copper World"
Non-controlling interest represents the portion of ownership in a company held by investors who do not have a controlling stake, meaning they do not have enough voting power to make major decisions. It is similar to owning a minority share of a business partner’s company—while they benefit from profits, they cannot control how the company is run. This matters to investors because it shows how much of the company's value is owned by outside shareholders and affects overall financial reporting.
provisionally priced receivables financial
"Hudbay records changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables related to provisional pricing"
costless collars financial
"Hudbay had 13.2 million pounds of copper costless collars outstanding settling from July 2026"
A costless collar is a hedging strategy where an investor buys a protective option that limits losses and simultaneously sells an option that caps gains so the two premiums roughly cancel out. Think of it like buying insurance on a car while agreeing to share any big windfall from its sale with the insurer — it protects your downside without an upfront payment, but it also limits how much you can profit. Investors use it to reduce risk on a position while preserving capital and avoiding immediate cash outlay.
decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities financial
"Decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities are remeasured at each reporting date"

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 annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 which includes information necessary or useful to understanding the Company's business and financial statement presentation. In particular, the Company's material accounting policies are presented in note 3 in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements, except as noted below.

Deferred consideration receivable from the sale of non-controlling interest

Deferred consideration receivables arising from the sale of non-controlling interest are initially recognized as a financial asset at their fair value on the date the obligation arises. The fair value is determined by discounting the expected cash inflows to its present value using a company credit adjusted discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the company. The deferred consideration will be classified as a financial asset at amortized cost, with subsequent remeasurements recognized in profit or loss. Additionally, the asset will then be accreted and amortized until the maturity date, with the accretion expense flowing through profit or loss (note 5).

The Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements on July 28, 2026.

(b) Use of judgements and estimates:

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards 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, 2025, except as noted below.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
 

- Valuation of assets in an asset acquisition (note 4) - As the Company acquired ASCU through the issuance of the Company's common shares and the Company concluded that the acquisition of ASCU is an asset acquisition, a valuation was required to the fair value of the net assets acquired. The fair values of the net assets acquired were calculated using significant estimates and judgements. In particular, the fair value of the exploration property has been determined using an independent valuation involving discounted cash flow calculations. 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.

3. New standards

New standards and interpretations adopted

(a) Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Disclosures

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and 7 to clarify the recognition or derecognition of a financial asset or liability, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system. The amendments also add guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion, by introducing an additional SPPI test for financial assets with contingent features that are not related directly to a change in basic lending risks or costs. In addition, the amendments will add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows. Lastly, the amendments will require additional disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income. The amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with early application permitted. The amendments have been adopted by the Company and the amendments did not result in any material changes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and 7 to clarify the application of the 'own-use' exemption and provide guidance on hedge accounting for companies that hedge their purchase or sales of electricity using renewable power purchase agreements. The amendments also introduce new disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026. The amendments have been adopted by the Company and the amendments did not result in any material changes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

New standards issued but not yet effective

(a) IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The standard amends the presentation of the statement of income by introducing a newly defined 'operating profit' subtotal and a requirement for income and expenses to be allocated between three new distinct categories based on a company's main business activities, which are Operating, Financing and Investing. In addition, organizations will need to disclose certain 'non-GAAP' measures known as management-defined performance measures. The standard will be effective from January 1, 2027 with early adoption permitted and requires retrospective application. The Company is assessing the impact of adoption of this amendment on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. Acquisition of Arizona Sonoran

On June 24, 2026, Hudbay acquired all the issued and outstanding common shares of ASCU not already owned by Hudbay by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement (the "ASCU Transaction"). Former ASCU shareholders (other than Hudbay) received 0.242 of a common share of Hudbay for each common share of ASCU held immediately prior to the effective time of the ASCU Transaction. In doing so, Hudbay obtained control of ASCU on June 24, 2026, and ASCU is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Hudbay.

Management determined that substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in the Cactus project and therefore accounted for the ASCU Transaction as an asset acquisition.

The aggregate number of common shares issued by Hudbay as consideration was 46,794,082 Hudbay common shares (note 21b). In addition, as of the effective time of the ASCU Transaction, 20,844,771 ASCU common shares were held by Hudbay with a value of $123.1 million. For an asset acquisition settled with equity, entities are required to record the net assets acquired based on the fair value of the assets received in exchange for the equity issued, unless fair value cannot be estimated reliably. Hudbay incurred acquisition related costs of $8.3 million during 2026, mainly related to external legal and advisory fees and due diligence costs, which were capitalized and included as cost of acquiring the net assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, $1.8 million of these costs were paid in cash, while $6.5 million remained accrued at period end.

The fair value of net assets acquired was determined using a combination of income and cost methods. In particular, the fair values of Cactus project have been calculated using significant judgements and estimates. The following presents the fair value amount of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as at June 24, 2026:

Fair value of net assets acquired / (liabilities) assumed      
Cash and cash equivalents $ 63.0  
Receivables   0.4  
Prepaid expenses and other   0.4  
Exploration property   1,357.0  
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (31.0 )
Other current liabilities   (20.0 )
Deferred land payments   (102.8 )
Total fair value of net identifiable assets acquired $ 1,267.0  

During the period of June 24, 2026 to June 30, 2026, ASCU paid transaction and closing payments that amounted to $49.3 million. These transaction and closing payments were accrued for prior to the effective time of the ASCU Transaction.

5. Sale of non-controlling interest in Copper World

In January 2026, Hudbay closed its Copper World joint venture transaction with Mitsubishi, pursuant to which Mitsubishi completed its strategic investment for a 30% minority interest in Copper World, which owns the fully-permitted Copper World project in Arizona (the "JV Transaction"). On closing, Mitsubishi contributed approximately $420 million of cash to Copper World, and it will contribute an additional $180 million in cash to Copper World within 18 months of the closing date of the JV Transaction, in accordance with the terms of the definitive subscription agreement dated August 12, 2025. Following the completion of the JV Transaction, Hudbay retained a 70% controlling interest in Copper World and continues to consolidate Copper World. The JV Transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction resulting in the recognition of a non-controlling interest.

The Company recorded $581.5 million of total consideration for the JV Transaction which included the cash consideration of $422.7 million received on the closing date, $169.8 million of deferred consideration recorded as a long term receivable and $11.0 million of transaction costs recorded within equity. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest was increased by $461.6 million to reflect the change in the proportionate share of Copper World's net assets.

As a result of the JV Transaction, the Company recorded an increase to equity as follows:

       
Cash consideration received $ 422.7  
Deferred consideration receivable   169.8  
Less: Carrying value of the non-controlling interest transferred   (461.6 )
Less: Transaction costs recorded in equity   (11.0 )
Surplus - recorded in equity $ 119.9  

The deferred consideration of $169.8 million will be accreted up to $180 million over the 18 month period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded $1.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively, in accretion in long term receivable related to the deferred consideration within finance income (note 7d). The cash consideration received as part of the JV Transaction is designated for exclusive use by Copper World and is not available for general use by the Hudbay consolidated group.

6. Copper Mountain non-controlling interest acquisition

On April 30, 2025, Hudbay completed the acquisition of Mitsubishi Materials Corporation's ("MMC") 25% minority interest in CMBC (the "CMBC Transaction"). The cash consideration of the CMBC Transaction consisted of:

 $4.5 million on the closing date of the CMBC Transaction,

 $21.0 million in seven annual deferred payments of $3.0 million each, commencing on the 12-month anniversary of the closing date of the CMBC Transaction, and

 up to $18.75 million in five additional contingent payments of $3.75 million each, payable in the years following New Ingerbelle achieving certain minimum annual operating thresholds. MMC's right to the contingent payments concludes on the 15-year anniversary of the closing date of the CMBC Transaction.

As a result of the CMBC Transaction, Hudbay increased its ownership of the Copper Mountain mine from 75% to 100%. CMBC is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Hudbay.

The Company recorded $35.9 million of total consideration for the CMBC Transaction which included the cash payment of $4.5 million on the closing date, $16.6 million of deferred payments and $13.3 million of contingent consideration recorded as financial liability at amortized cost (note 15) and $1.5 million of transaction costs recorded within equity. 

As a result of the CMBC Transaction, the Company recorded an increase to equity as follows:

       
Carrying value of non-controlling interest as at April 30, 2025 $ 93.2  
Transfer of net gain on translation of foreign currency balances   4.0  
Less: total consideration   (35.9 )
Surplus - recorded in equity $ 61.3

Treatment and refining charges     0.1     (3.3 )   (3.0 )   (17.3 )
    $ 631.3   $ 536.4   $ 1,388.6   $ 1,131.3  
1 See note 18.
2 Pricing and volume adjustments represent mark-to-market adjustments on initial estimate of provisionally priced sales, realized and unrealized changes to fair value of quotational pricing hedge derivative contracts and adjustments to originally invoiced weights and assays.

Consideration from the Company's stream agreements is considered variable (note 18). 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 2026, 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 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 resulted in a decrease in revenue of $0.1 million (six months ended June 30, 2025 - increase in revenue of $9.9 million).

(b) Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets are reflected in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income as follows:

As at June 30, 2026, current financial assets include $49.8 million of restricted cash held in a project trust account managed by U.S. Bank Trust Company. These funds represent proceeds from the issuance of 4.50% Arizona Industrial Development Authority Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds (Copper World project), Series 2026A (the "Municipal bonds") which are legally earmarked for qualifying solid waste disposal expenditures at the Copper World project (note 17c). The Municipal bonds were issued by the Arizona Industrial Development Authority and have an initial mandatory tender date of July 2, 2036. During the second quarter of 2026, $1.0 million was released from the Municipal bonds. The Company expects to draw upon these proceeds within the next twelve months, as a result, this balance has been classified as a current asset. These funds are not available for general operational or debt service use by other entities within the Hudbay consolidated group.

Investments at fair value through profit or loss primarily relate to common shares held in various mining companies. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded additions of $39.3 million, unrealized mark-to-market gains of $112.2 million (note 7d), disposals of $0.6 million, unrealized foreign exchange losses of $4.8 million and cancellation of ASCU shares as part of an asset acquisition of $123.1 million (note 4).

Other assets include $32.4 million (December 31, 2025 - $42.8 million) of the carrying value of certain future community costs that relate to original agreements with communities for the Constancia operation which allow Hudbay to extract minerals over the useful life of the Peru operation. The liability remaining for these costs is recorded in agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost (note 15). Amortization of the carrying amount is recorded in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income within other expenses (note 7c) or exploration expenses, depending on the nature of the agreement.

Other assets also include $nil million related to cash advances and equipment financing advances made on long lease equipment (December 31, 2025 - $8.7 million).

Intangibles mainly represent computer software costs.

Financing related to property, plant and equipment represents agreements that Hudbay has entered into to purchase mining equipment and land. Hudbay owns the assets and finances the payment of these assets over the specified term. These agreements expire between 2026 and 2032 with interest rates between 2.25% and 7.55% per annum. 

The following table summarizes changes in financing related to property, plant & equipment:

Agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost relate to agreements with communities near the Constancia operation which allow Hudbay to extract minerals over the useful life of the Constancia operation, carry out exploration and evaluation activities in the area and provide Hudbay with community support to operate in the region. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there was a change in estimate related to amendments of life of mine agreements with respect to Constancia resulting in net reductions of $2.3 million. Payments will be made over the respective terms of the agreements, which have varying expiration dates ranging from 2026 to 2040.

As part of the CMBC Transaction, the Company recorded $16.6 million of deferred payment consideration and $13.3 million of contingent consideration as a financial liability at amortized cost on the closing of the CMBC Transaction. The deferred consideration will be settled over a period from 2026 to 2032, while the contingent consideration is payable between 2029 and 2033. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, accretion related to these liabilities were $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2025 - $0.3 million) (note 7d).

As part of the ASCU Transaction (note 4), the Company recorded $5.0 million of current and $98.8 million of long term deferred land payments. The deferred land payments are associated with the Consortium Land purchase completed by ASCU in August 2025 which includes surface rights and mineral rights to such lands. The deferred land payments bear interest at 6% per annum and are payable in installments of $5.0 million each year from 2026 to 2028 with the remaining $82.2 million payable on maturity on August 28, 2029, with the rights to pre-pay in whole or in part, at any time, without penalty. The deferred land payments are structured as secured vendor carryback loans, pursuant to which certain deeds of trust were provided to the consortium vendors on their respectively sold portions of the land sold pursuant to the sale and on certain other properties already held by Cactus 110 LLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of ASCU.

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, 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.

Current $ 27.0   $ 26.7  
Non-current   26.0     29.3  
  $ 53.0   $ 56.0  

Hudbay has entered into leases which expire between 2026 and 2037. The interest rates on leases which were capitalized have interest rates between 2.50% and 8.49%, per annum. The range of interest rates utilized for discounting the lease depends mostly on Hudbay acting as a 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.

18. Deferred revenue

Peru Stream Agreement

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the drawdown rates for the Peru stream agreement for gold and silver were $833 and $15.56 per ounce, respectively (year ended December 31, 2025 - $860 and $15.06 per ounce, respectively).

The following table summarizes changes in deferred revenue:

Balance, January 1, 2025 $ 372.2  
Amortization of deferred revenue:      
Liability drawdown   (65.1 )
Variable consideration adjustments - prior periods   (9.9 )
Accretion on streaming arrangements:      
Current year additions   20.5  
Variable consideration adjustments - prior periods   (0.6 )
Balance, December 31, 2025 $ 317.1  
Amortization of deferred revenue (note 7a):      
Liability drawdown   (29.1 )

Accretion on streaming arrangements (note 7d):      
Current year-to-date additions   9.0  
Variable consideration adjustments - prior periods   -  
Balance, June 30, 2026 $ 297.1  

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 2026, 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 decrease in revenue of $0.1 million and $nil impact to finance expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (year ended December 31, 2025 - an increase in revenue of $9.9 million and a decrease in finance expense of $0.6 million).

Deferred revenue is reflected in the condensed consolidated interim balance sheets as follows:

    Jun. 30, 2026     Dec. 31, 2025  
Current $ 33.2   $ 52.1

1 Relates primarily to flow-through share premiums, restructuring costs and other non-capital provisions.  

Decommissioning and restoration obligations ("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, 2026, the Company recorded a non-cash loss of $7.6 million in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income mainly related to a revaluation adjustment to the Flin Flon environmental reclamation provision. The re-evaluation adjustment was impacted by the timing and extent of cash flows for Flin Flon's closed sites. The adjustment also reflects net changes in long term, risk-free real discount rates based on changes in Canadian bond yields as well as increases in inflation rates. 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 loss in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income.

As at June 30, 2026, decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities have been discounted to their present value at rates ranging from 2.37% to 5.03% per annum (December 31, 2025 - 2.41% to 4.95%), using pre-tax, nominal risk-free interest rates that reflect the estimated maturity of each specific liability.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $1.0 million in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income mainly related to a revaluation adjustment to the Flin Flon environmental reclamation provision.

1 Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, 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 Fair value of the deferred consideration receivable has been determined using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discount rate (level 3).
3 Excludes tax and other statutory amounts.
4 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 (level 2).
5 Derivatives are carried at their fair value, which is determined based on observable forward market commodity prices corresponding to the maturity of the contract (level 2),
6 Investments in listed shares are valued using quoted market bid prices in active markets. For Investments in private companies where no active market exists, fair value is determined using valuation techniques including recent arm's length market transactions.
7 Fair value has been determined using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discount rate (level 3).
8 These financial liabilities relate to agreements with communities in Peru (note 15). Fair values have been determined using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discounted rate and foreign exchange rates (level 3).
9 Fair value of the senior secured revolving credit facility (note 17b) is equal to its carrying value as the drawn interest rate under the facility is comparable to current market rates.
10 Fair value of the senior unsecured notes (note 17a) has been determined using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discount rate (level 3).
11 Fair value of the municipal bonds (note 17c) has been determined using comparable current market rates for similar instruments, adjusted for estimated credit spreads (level 2).
12 Discounted value based on a market rate at inception of the applicable Wheaton contract for carrying value (note 15) and fair value using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discount rate (level 3).

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, 2026 and year ended December 31, 2025, 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, 2025.

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, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Hudbay's net position consisted of contracts awaiting final pricing are as indicated below:

Metal in
concentrate
    Sales awaiting final pricing     Average YTD price ($/unit)  
Unit   Jun. 30, 2026     Dec. 31, 2025     Jun. 30, 2026     Dec. 31, 2025  
Copper pounds (in 000s)   69,831     65,791     6.05     5.64  
Gold troy ounces   17,422     33,222     4,067     4,340  
Silver troy ounces   284,818     85,337     60.36     70.22  
Zinc pounds (in 000s)   -     8,365     -     1.40  

The aggregate fair value of provisionally priced receivables within the copper and zinc concentrate at June 30, 2026 was a liability position of $9.5 million (December 31, 2025 - an asset position of $40.9 million).

24. Commitments

- Remeasurement of Hudbay's decommissioning and restoration liabilities led to a net increase in related property, plant and equipment assets of $19.3 million (June 30, 2025 - a net increase of $0.5 million), mainly related to changes to closure costs and real discount rates associated with remeasurement of the liabilities.

- Property, plant and equipment included $15.0 million (June 30, 2025 - $20.7 million) of capital additions related to the recognition of ROU assets and $56.3 million (June 30, 2025 - $8.2 million) of capital additions related to the recognition of property, plant and equipment that has been financed. Property, plant and equipment and other assets include nil capital additions related to agreements with communities (June 30, 2025 - $9.9 million). Property, plant and equipment includes $0.4 million deduction for accrued grants related to equipment eligible for credits (June 30, 2025 - $1.5 million).

- Property, plant and equipment includes $1,357.0 million of capital additions related to the purchase of ASCU that was purchased with 46,794,082 Hudbay common shares and $123.1 million of ASCU shares held by Hudbay (note 4).

26. Segmented information

Hudbay has the following reportable segments identified by the individual mining operations of Manitoba, British Columbia, Peru, Copper World project and Cactus project. Corporate and other activities are not considered an operating segment and are included as a reconciliation to total consolidated results. 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. Hudbay's second quarter 2026 income before tax was not affected by the ASCU Transaction as the Cactus project had no income or expenses recorded during the six day stub period from the date of acquisition to the end of the second quarter. No results for the Cactus project segment are reflected in the prior period comparative figures.

SUMMARY

Delivered Strong Second Quarter Financial Results; Production Guidance Reaffirmed and Cost Guidance Improved

 Achieved quarterly revenue of $631.3 million, net earnings attributable to owners1 of $137.4 million, quarterly adjusted EBITDA1 of $321.2 million and adjusted net earnings attributable to owners1 of $113.5 million in the second quarter, driven by steady operating performance, attractive operating margins and strong exposure to copper and gold across Hudbay's diversified operating portfolio.

 Steady production continued in the second quarter with consolidated copper and gold production of 28,267 tonnes and 51,234 ounces, respectively, with higher copper production in line with quarterly cadence expectations while gold production was slightly lower than quarterly cadence expectations.

 Industry-leading margins continue to be achieved with consolidated cash cost1 and sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, of $(0.40) and $1.39, per pound of copper respectively, in the second quarter of 2026.

 Reaffirmed full year 2026 consolidated production guidance including 110,000 to 138,000 tonnes of copper and 217,000 to 272,000 ounces of gold.

 Improved full year 2026 consolidated cash cost1 guidance to $(0.45) to $(0.25) per pound of copper from $(0.30) to $(0.10) per pound as costs are tracking well below the low end of the guidance range given strong exposure to gold by-product credits and continued operating efficiencies are more than offsetting higher input costs for fuel and consumables.

 Peru operations produced 19,446 tonnes of copper and 5,282 ounces of gold in the second quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations with a planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the quarter. Peru cash cost1, net of by-product credits, of $1.66 per pound outperformed the low end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound despite the lower planned production and higher fuel costs.

 Manitoba operations produced 40,344 ounces of gold, 2,366 tonnes of copper, 4,760 tonnes of zinc and 209,478 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, slightly lower than quarterly cadence expectations. Manitoba cash cost1 of $776 per ounce of gold was within the annual guidance range of $500 to $800 per ounce.

 British Columbia operations produced 6,455 tonnes of copper, 5,608 ounces of gold and 71,178 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations. British Columbia cash cost1 of $3.22 per pound of copper was higher than the annual cost guidance range of $1.50 to $2.50 per pound primarily due to elevated fuel prices and timing of equipment maintenance. British Columbia cash cost is expected to improve in the second half of the year, in line with the annual guidance range.

 Second quarter earnings per share attributable to owners was $0.34, reflecting strong gross profit margins as a result of the continued focus on strong cost control and higher metal prices more than offsetting higher input costs. After adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis, second quarter adjusted earnings1 per share attributable to owners was $0.28.

 Cash and cash equivalents were $890.9 million and total liquidity2 was $1,044.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2026, despite using cash to retire over $200 million in long term debt and benefitting from the approximate $420 million initial cash contribution from Mitsubishi Corporation ("Mitsubishi") received on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction in January 2026.

Continued Strong Cash Flow Generation and Prudent Balance Sheet Management

 Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations provides exposure to higher copper and gold prices, which together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate significant free cash flow.

 While the majority of Hudbay's revenue continues to be derived from copper production, revenue from gold production represents a meaningful portion of total revenues. Gold revenues were 38% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2026.


 Cash generated from operating activities was $297.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $85.7 million compared to the first quarter partially as a result of favourable changes in non-cash working capital.

 Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $210.1 million during the second quarter of 2026, relatively consistent with the first quarter.

 Delivered free cash flow1 generation of $101.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing a similar level of free cash flow generation to the first quarter through continued strong operating margins and cost controls, resulting in more than $200 million of free cash flow generated in the first half of 2026 despite investing over $200 million of sustaining capital in the business over this period.

 Achieved quarterly adjusted EBITDA1 of $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, resulting in record trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA1 of $1,271.6 million.

 Achieved net debt1 of negative $80.5 million as at June 30, 2026, representing an $86.1 million improvement from the first quarter of 2026 and positioning the Company well to reinvest in high-return growth capital projects across the business.

 Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio1 was negative 0.1x in the second quarter of 2026, significantly improved from 0.4x in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a result of the initial proceeds received from Mitsubishi on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction along with strong cash flows from operations.

 Consistent with Hudbay's prudent balance sheet management and focus on cost of capital, Hudbay repaid $472.5 million of its outstanding 2026 senior unsecured notes on maturity on April 1, 2026, using a combination of cash on hand and a $272 million draw on its low-cost revolving credit facilities, providing the Company with enhanced financial flexibility in advance of a Copper World sanctioning decision later this year. 

 Received proceeds of an offering of $52 million in aggregate principal amount of solid waste disposal revenue bonds with an initial mandatory tender date in 2036. These long-term, low-cost, non-amortizing U.S. municipal bonds, may be used for certain eligible costs associated with the development of Copper World.

 Hudbay's enhanced Capital Allocation Framework is embedded into its annual financial planning cycle to provide a holistic approach to capital allocation decisions to maximize long-term risk-adjusted returns, including capital deployment into brownfield projects, greenfield projects, strategic investments and exploration, while considering debt repurchases, share buybacks and dividends.

Advancing Generational Growth Investments to Further Enhance Copper and Gold Exposure

 The Copper World definitive feasibility study ("DFS") is progressing well, and a project sanctioning decision continues to be on track for late 2026. The DFS is expected to include scope for future mill expansion optionality.

 Completed the acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. ("ASCU") to bring together two highly complementary copper growth assets in Arizona and strengthen Hudbay's position as a premier Americas-focused copper company with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets located in tier-one jurisdictions. The acquisition of ASCU enhances Hudbay's long-term copper production profile and expands its U.S. growth pipeline through the staged development of Copper World and Cactus. Hudbay expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of 2026 to advance an updated pre-feasibility study, perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs.

 Continued to advance a large Snow Lake exploration program to further increase near-term production and mineral reserves, test regional satellite deposits for additional mill feed to utilize available capacity at Stall and explore the large land package for a new anchor deposit to meaningfully extend mine life.

 Celebrated the official groundbreaking of the New Ingerbelle expansion project at Copper Mountain, marking a significant milestone for the operation and its long-term future in British Columbia, enhancing the copper and gold production profile and securing a longer mine life. Growth capital expenditures in British Columbia in 2026 are expected to increase by approximately $30 million to $115 million due to additional costs associated with the development of infrastructure for New Ingerbelle.

 Received approval from the government in Peru to further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from the previously permitted 31 million tonnes, enabling additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production.

 Advanced initial pre-feasibility study activities at the Mason copper project in Nevada.


Summary of Second Quarter Results

Hudbay's diversified asset portfolio delivered consolidated copper production of 28,267 tonnes and consolidated gold production of 51,234 ounces in the second quarter of 2026. Consolidated copper production was higher than the first quarter of 2026 as higher mill throughput in British Columbia more than offset lower planned mill throughput in Peru. Consolidated gold production was lower than the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to lower milled gold grades. Consolidated silver production of 845,161 ounces was higher than the first quarter of 2026 due to higher grades and recoveries in British Columbia. Zinc production of 4,760 tonnes in the second quarter of 2026 also increased compared to the previous quarter, primarily reflecting higher ore grades at the Manitoba operations.

Cash generated from operating activities was $297.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $85.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2026 and an increase of $37.1 million compared to the same period in 2025. The increases are partially as a result of favourable changes in non-cash working capital. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $210.1 million during the second quarter of 2026 and remained relatively consistent with the first quarter of 2026 and second quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease compared to the record $421.9 million achieved in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher copper prices. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA1 increased by 31% compared to $245.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 as a result of higher metal prices partially offset by lower sales volumes of all metals. The lower sales volumes in the second quarter of 2026 was impacted by a temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port in Peru. This accumulation was caused by ocean swells that resulted in temporary port closures and delayed scheduled shipments of approximately 10,000 dry metric tonnes of copper concentrate which were delivered in the first half of July 2026.

Net earnings attributable to owners was $137.4 million, or $0.34 per share, in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $190.4 million, or $0.48 per share, in the first quarter of 2026. The decrease is primarily the result of lower revenue due to lower sales volumes of all metals.

Adjusted net earnings attributable to owners1 and adjusted net earnings per share attributable to owners1 in the second quarter of 2026 were $113.5 million and $0.28 per share, respectively, after adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis including a $38.2 million mark-to-market revaluation net gain on various financial instruments such as investments and share-based compensation, a non-cash $12.0 million foreign exchange loss, an $11.5 million business interruption insurance recovery related to the Manitoba mandatory wildfire evacuations shutdowns in 2025, among other items. This compares to adjusted net earnings attributable to owners1 and net earnings per share attributable to owners1 of $161.0 million and $0.40 per share, respectively, in the first quarter of 2026. The decrease is a result of lower realized metal prices for gold and the aforementioned lower sales volumes.

Consolidated cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $(0.40) per pound of copper, compared to record low cash cost of $(1.80) per pound in the first quarter of 2026. The increase from the first quarter of 2026 was a result of lower by-product credits from lower gold volumes. When compared to the second quarter of 2025, consolidated cash cost1, net of by-product credits1 decreased by $0.38 per pound as a result of higher by-product credits, partially offset by lower production.

Consolidated sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.39 per pound of copper, compared to $0.00 per pound in the first quarter of 2026. This increase was primarily due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash cost noted above. When compared to the second quarter of 2025, consolidated sustaining cash cost1, net of by-production credits decreased by $0.26 per pound due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash cost noted above.

Consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.80 per pound of copper, higher than the first quarter of 2026 due to the same reasons noted above, partially offset by lower corporate general and administrative ("G&A") costs from the impact of the revaluation of Hudbay's share-based compensation.

As at June 30, 2026, total liquidity2 was $1,044.6 million, including $890.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, which excludes $49.8 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that is classified as restricted cash, and undrawn availability of $153.7 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities. Net debt1 at the end of the second quarter was negative $80.5 million, marking an $86.1 million improvement from first quarter of 2026, primarily as a result of positive cash flows from operations. Hudbay expects that the current liquidity, together with cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs for the next 12 months.

He is a Professional Engineer and holds a master's degree in Mineral Economics from the Colorado School of Mines and a bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering from Queen's University.


Continued Free Cash Flow Generation Driven by Strong Operating Margins; External Cost Pressures Insulated by Diversified Copper and Gold Exposure

Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations provides exposure to strong commodity prices, which together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate attractive free cash flow. While the majority of Hudbay's revenue continues to be derived from copper production, revenue from gold production represents a meaningful portion of total revenues, with gold accounting for 38% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2026.

Hudbay's cost control efforts are focused on navigating external cost pressures, such as higher fuel and consumable costs. The Company continues to manage costs and deliver strong margins through initiatives to further improve throughput and enhance operating efficiencies. Despite such external cost pressures in the second quarter, Hudbay achieved consolidated cash cost1 of negative $0.40 per pound of copper and generated operating cash flow of over $200 million and free cash flow of over $100 million, similar to the first quarter of 2026. Hudbay continues to benefit from its diversified platform with significant by-product credits from gold production.

The Company had $890.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and net debt1 of negative $80.5 million at the end of the second quarter of 2026. Hudbay's strong cash position and continued prudent balance sheet management position the Company well to advance its generational growth investments across the portfolio and allocate capital to the highest risk-adjusted return opportunities to deliver significant value for stakeholders.

Copper World DFS Progressing Well and Project Sanctioning on Track for Late 2026

In January 2026, Hudbay announced the closing of the joint venture transaction with Mitsubishi, securing a premier, long-term strategic partner for the development of Copper World. The $420 million of initial proceeds received at closing from Mitsubishi will be used to directly fund the remaining DFS costs and pre-sanctioning costs in addition to the initial project development costs for Copper World. Mitsubishi will contribute an additional $180 million within 18 months of closing to complete its 30% minority investment and will also fund its pro-rata 30% share of future equity capital contributions.

Feasibility activities for the Copper World DFS are progressing well, with 95% of the engineering work completed and a sanctioning decision remains on track for later in 2026. The DFS is expected to reflect higher capital expenditures as compared to the 2023 pre-feasibility study primarily due to typical cost inflation along with new capital related to project scope changes that would allow for future mill expansion optionality, while continuing to generate robust economics.

On June 24, 2026, Copper World LLC received proceeds of an offering of $52.0 million aggregate principal amount of solid waste disposal revenue bonds due July 2, 2036 (the "Municipal Bonds"). The Municipal Bonds were issued by the Arizona Industrial Development Authority at par and carry a fixed interest rate of 4.5% per annum, with interest payable by Copper World LLC semi-annually. The Municipal Bond proceeds may be used for certain eligible costs associated with the development of the Copper World project and are treated as restricted cash on Hudbay's balance sheet.

Completion of the Arizona Sonoran Acquisition to Create the Third Largest Copper District in North America

On June 24, 2026, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of ASCU, pursuant to which Hudbay acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of ASCU not already owned by Hudbay (the "ASCU Transaction").

As a result of the completion of the ASCU Transaction, ASCU became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hudbay and Hudbay acquired 100% ownership of Arizona Sonoran's Cactus project. In aggregate, Hudbay issued 46,794,082 Hudbay common shares under the ASCU Transaction to former ASCU shareholders as consideration for their Arizona Sonoran shares. Following the closing of the ASCU Transaction, the Arizona Sonoran shares were de-listed from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and Arizona Sonoran ceased to be a reporting issuer pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws.

The ASCU Transaction brings together two highly complementary copper growth assets in Arizona and strengthens Hudbay's position as a premier Americas-focused copper company with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets located in tier-one jurisdictions. The ASCU Transaction is expected to enhance Hudbay's long-term copper production profile, expand its U.S. growth pipeline, and generate significant operational efficiencies and regional synergies with Hudbay's staged development of Copper World and Cactus.

Hudbay expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of 2026 to advance an updated pre-feasibility study ("PFS"), perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs. The updated Cactus PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.


New Ingerbelle Expansion Project Underway to Enhance Copper and Gold Production Profile at Copper Mountain

In June 2026, Hudbay celebrated the official groundbreaking of the New Ingerbelle expansion project at Copper Mountain, marking a significant milestone for the operation and its long-term future in British Columbia. The event was attended by Hudbay's executive team, employees, B.C.'s Minister of Mining and Critical Minerals, the B.C. Mining Association, the Chief of the Upper Similkameen Indian Band, regional representatives, and leaders from the local community. The event was also recognized by Canada's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources.

New Ingerbelle enhances the copper and gold production profile and secures a longer mine life at Copper Mountain. Based on current mineral reserves, New Ingerbelle is projected to produce approximately 750,000 tonnes of copper, 900,000 ounces of gold and 5.5 million ounces of silver over the life of mine. Designed to access higher-grade mineralization, the expansion also features a stripping ratio approximately three times lower than current mining areas. 

The groundbreaking comes shortly after the Government of British Columbia added New Ingerbelle to its list of priority resource projects, recognizing initiatives that support economic growth, responsible resource development and long-term value creation across the province. The New Ingerbelle expansion received key mining permits on February 19, 2026 from the British Columbia Major Mines Office ("MMO") following a robust review and consultation process. Throughout the permitting process, Hudbay proactively engaged with the MMO, local communities, the Upper Similkameen Indian Band ("USIB") and the Lower Similkameen Indian Band ("LSIB") to ensure transparency and collaborative oversight and to seek consensus, although, as previously disclosed, the LSIB subsequently submitted an application for judicial review of the regulatory decision to grant the New Ingerbelle permit amendment.

With key permits in place, Hudbay is advancing important infrastructure required for the expansion, including an access road, a bridge across the Similkameen river and an east haul road connecting New Ingerbelle to existing operations. Growth capital expenditures in British Columbia in 2026 are expected to increase by approximately $30 million to $115 million related to additional costs associated with infrastructure development at New Ingerbelle. Hudbay expects similar levels of growth capital investments in British Columbia in 2027 related to the continued infrastructure development at New Ingerbelle, which is expected to achieve first production in late 2028. The Company has also initiated a targeted drilling program at New Ingerbelle, focusing on upgrading existing inferred resources to reserves to further optimize and extend the mine life at Copper Mountain.

Peru Regulatory Approval Received to Further Increase Mill Throughput at Constancia

Hudbay received approval from the National Environmental Certification Service for Sustainable Investments in Peru to amend its environmental permit and further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia. The approval was received in late June and represented the fifth environmental permit amendment at Constancia. The amended permit increases the processing capacity of the Constancia mill to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from the previously permitted 31 million tonnes. In March 2026, Hudbay received permit approval to increase mill throughput capacity to 31 million tonnes from 29.9 million tonnes per annum.

As part of the Company's continuous improvement efforts, the updated permit enables additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production. Hudbay's efforts to increase mill throughput align with the Peru Ministry of Energy and Mines' regulatory framework, which permits operational flexibility to operate up to 10% above nominal daily capacity. Hudbay achieved total ore processed of 30.3 million tonnes and 31.9 million tonnes in 2025 and 2024, respectively. With this permit amendment, Hudbay is aligning its operational capacity to support the new level of 34 million tonnes per annum, while maintaining the standard operational flexibility to handle daily increases of up to 10% above permitted levels.

Large Exploration Drill Program Continues in Snow Lake

Hudbay continues to execute the largest exploration program in Snow Lake in the Company's history through extensive geophysical surveying and drilling campaigns as part of Hudbay's multi-pronged exploration strategy:

 Near-mine Exploration at Lalor and 1901 to Further Increase Near-term Production and Extend Mine Life - Near-mine exploration at the Lalor mine and the adjacent 1901 deposit continued to support near-term production growth and mine life extension. The exploration program will continue during the remainder of 2026 to potentially increase mineral reserves and resources and enable additional resource conversion. At the 1901 deposit, activities are focused on exploration and definition drilling, orebody access and establishing the critical infrastructure required to support full production beginning in late 2027. Exploration activities at 1901 will include step-out drilling to potentially extend the orebody, as well as infill drilling aimed at converting inferred mineral resources within the gold lenses to mineral reserves.


 Evaluating Significant Gold Production Potential from Past-Producing New Britannia mine - Acquired through the New Britannia mill acquisition in 2015, the past-producing New Britannia mine provides potential for significant incremental gold production in Snow Lake. The Company is developing an exploration plan to test down plunge extensions and underexplored areas between known deposits at the mine. Hudbay plans to conduct infill and expansion drilling at the 3 Zone, a satellite deposit to New Britannia, with three drills scheduled for later in 2026.

 Testing Regional Satellite Deposits to Utilize Available Processing Capacity and Increase Production - Hudbay's extensive regional land package includes an attractive portfolio of deposits in Snow Lake within trucking distance of the Snow Lake processing infrastructure, including the Talbot, Rail, Pen II, Watts, and WIM deposits. With available mill processing capacity at the Stall mill, the Company continues to progress exploration work across the region to define satellite deposits to potentially increase production and extend the life of the Snow Lake operations beyond 2041. During the second quarter of 2026, the infill drilling program at Talbot was completed as well as the geotechnical drilling required for PFS activities. The Company is also testing additional targets to expand the footprint of the deposit at depth. Hudbay intends to update Rockcliff's prior mineral resource estimate for Talbot using Hudbay's standard methods.

 Exploring Large Land Package for New Anchor Deposit to Significantly Extend Mine Life - A majority of the land claims acquired as part of the Rockcliff acquisition in 2023 have been untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor deposit. The large geophysics program underway consisting of surface electromagnetic surveys using cutting edge techniques that enable the team to detect targets at depths of almost 1,000 metres below surface. The planned 2026 geophysics program includes 600 kilometres of ground electromagnetic surveys and an extensive airborne geophysics survey.

Mason Project Commences Pre-feasibility Study Activities

The Mason project is a 100% owned greenfield copper deposit located in the historic Yerington District of Nevada and is one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry deposits in North America. Hudbay views the Mason project as a long-term future development asset as part of the Company's pipeline of high-quality copper growth opportunities.

Hudbay completed a preliminary economic assessment on Mason in 2021 which contemplated a 27-year mine life with average annual copper production of approximately 140,000 tonnes over the first ten years of full production. The Company recently initiated PFS activities at Mason and expects to spend approximately $20 million in evaluation expenses at Mason for the remainder of 2026. The Mason PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.

Overview

The Peru operations continued to demonstrate steady operating performance during the second quarter of 2026, with production and costs in line with full-year expectations following the depletion of Pampacancha at the end of 2025.

The Company continues to advance the installation of pebble crushers at Constancia to increase mill throughput rates starting in the third quarter of 2026, which will allow the mine to deliver steady annual copper production despite lower grades following the depletion of Pampacancha.

In June 2026, the Company received approval from the National Environmental Certification Service for Sustainable Investments in Perú ("SENACE") to amend its environmental permit and further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia. This represented the fifth environmental permit amendment at Constancia. The amended permit increases the processing capacity of the Constancia mill to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from the previously permitted 31 million tonnes per annum. Previously, in March 2026, Hudbay received permit approval to increase mill throughput capacity to 31 million tonnes from 29.9 million tonnes per annum.

As part of the Company's continuous improvement efforts, the updated permit enables additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production. Hudbay's efforts to increase mill throughput align with the Peru Ministry of Energy and Mines' regulatory framework, which provides operational flexibility to operate up to 10% above nominal daily capacity. Hudbay achieved total ore processed of 30.3 million tonnes and 31.9 million tonnes in 2025 and 2024, respectively. With this permit amendment, Hudbay is in the process of aligning its operational capacity to support the new level of 34 million tonnes per annum, while maintaining the standard operational flexibility to handle daily increases of up to 10% above permitted levels.

The environmental permit amendment also approves further optimization of the mine plan, extends the operational life of Constancia, and incorporates the implementation of additional infrastructure to improve tailings transport infrastructure and water management systems.

In April 2026, Constancia was recognized as the safest open pit operation in Peru during the local National Mining Safety Contest for its performance in 2025. This award reflects the Company's unwavering commitment to safety and validates Constancia's compliance with the highest operational safety and regulatory standards.

Mining Activities

Total material moved during the second quarter of 2026 was 23.9 million tonnes, 15% higher than the same period in 2025, primarily as a result of shorter hauling distances from mining exclusively within the Constancia pit compared with mining two pits in 2025. A new monthly record total volume of material moved was achieved in May 2026. In addition, Peru realized improved productivity from enhanced fleet efficiency and the implementation of haulage optimization strategies. Total ore mined during the quarter remained consistent with ore mined in the first quarter of 2026.


Year-to-date total material moved was 16% higher than the same period in 2025, while year-to-date ore mined increased by 31% compared to the prior year period, driven by the same structural and fleet efficiency improvements noted in the quarterly variance, as well as positive reconciliation obtaining ore instead of waste.

Milling Activities

Mill throughput levels averaged approximately 86,000 tonnes per day during the second quarter of 2026, a marginal decrease compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the scheduled semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown and the processing of more metallurgically complex ore during the second quarter of 2026. Milled copper grades decreased slightly compared to the first quarter of 2026 due to blending targets implemented to control contaminants in the concentrate. As expected, overall gold grades declined primarily due to the transition away from the higher-grade gold contributions from the Pampacancha stockpile. Compared to the second quarter of 2025, milled copper and gold grades decreased primarily due to mining exclusively within the Constancia pit, compared to a two-pit operation in the prior year period. Metal recoveries remained in line with expectations.

Ore milled during the first half of 2026 was higher than the comparable period in 2025, largely driven by plant mechanical availability at the plant. Milled copper and gold grades in the first half of 2026 were slightly lower than the same period in 2025 due to processing ore from the Constancia pit. Copper recoveries during the first half of 2026 averaged 82%, a 3% decline compared to the same year-to-date period, driven by a lower grades and a higher proportion of stockpile ore feed. Gold and silver recoveries during the first half of 2026 were 55% and 62%, respectively, representing a decrease compared to the same year-to-date period of 2% and 4%, respectively, but remained in line with Hudbay's metallurgical models.

Production and Sales Performance

During the second quarter of 2026, the Peru operations produced 19,446 tonnes of copper, 5,282 ounces of gold, 564,505 ounces of silver and 277 tonnes of molybdenum. Production of copper, gold and molybdenum was slightly lower compared to the first quarter of 2026, reflecting the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the second quarter of 2026. Compared to the same period in 2025, production of copper and gold declined slightly, primarily as a result of lower mill recoveries associated with the processing of lower grade ore feed.

Year-to-date production of copper and gold during the first half of 2026 was 40,019 tonnes and 14,052 ounces, respectively, representing a decrease of 5% and 8%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to lower recoveries that resulted from processing slightly lower head grades as more material was mined from the Constancia pit and reclaimed from stockpiles compared with the same period last year, which included material mined from Pampacancha.

Quantities of metal sold during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were in line with the variances noted above, but were further affected by higher finished goods concentrate inventory levels at the end of the second quarter of 2026, resulting in lower sales volumes. Sales volumes were impacted by a temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port caused by ocean swells that resulted in temporary port closures and delayed scheduled shipments. As a result, approximately 10,000 dry metric tonnes of copper concentrate sales were deferred to the first half of July.

Cost Performance

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating cost in the second quarter of 2026 was $14.06 per tonne, which was 3% higher than the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher fuel prices, partially offset by lower power costs related to a new power purchase agreement that came into effect on January 1, 2026, and additional tonnes of ore milled.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating cost in the second quarter of 2026 increased by 21% compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher fuel prices and a scheduled semi-annual plant shutdown in May 2026.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $12.82 per tonne, a 4% increase compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher diesel prices. This increase was partially offset by lower power prices and additional tonnes of ore milled.

Cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.66 per pound of copper, a 14% increase compared to the same period in 2025. This variance was mainly due to lower net pounds of copper produced and higher fuel prices, which were partially offset by higher by-product credits and lower power costs given the new power purchase agreement. Cash cost1, net of by-product credits increased by 137% compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower gold by-product credits resulting from lower gold volumes given the completion of mining of the high gold content Pampacancha stockpile in the first quarter, higher fuel prices and the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown in May 2026. This increase was partially offset by lower profit sharing. Despite the increase, cash cost for the quarter continued to outperform the low-end of the 2026 guidance range.

Year-to-date 2026 cash cost1, net of by-product credits2 were $1.17 per pound of copper, a decrease from $1.29 in the prior year period. This decrease was driven by higher gold and silver by-product credits, and the lower power price noted above, and was partially offset by a higher fuel price and higher profit sharing.


Sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $2.71 per pound of copper, an increase of 3% compared to the same period in 2025 as a result of lower net pounds of copper produced and the cash costs variance explained above. This increase was partially offset by lower tailings management facility construction costs in 2026 and the timing of mine maintenance. During the second quarter of 2026, sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, per pound of copper increased by 90% compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the same reasons affecting cash costs above, as well as higher community agreement payments.

On a year-to-date basis, sustaining cash cost1, net of by-products credits, was $2.05 per pound of copper, a 10% decrease when compared to the first half of 2025. This was primarily a result of lower cash cost as described above as well as the timing of mine equipment maintenance and lower tailing management facility construction costs in 2026 and was partially offset by lower pounds of copper produced and a higher cash payment for community agreements.

Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Peru. Cash cost for the quarter outperformed the low-end of the 2026 guidance range as a result of strong operating cost performance and higher by-product prices, despite external cost pressures. Hudbay is well positioned to achieve the full year 2026 cash cost guidance range in Peru.

Overview

The Manitoba operations continued to execute its strategic initiatives during the second quarter of 2026, navigating short-term operational hurdles while positioning the business for an expected strong second half of the year. To address labour availability constraints, Hudbay engaged an experienced mining contractor to advance the 1901 deposit. This strategic decision has enabled the team to redeploy its skilled internal workforce to other critical development areas at Lalor. Hudbay has simultaneously increased internal capacity, onboarding over 100 new employees in 2026, who are currently undergoing upskilling to enhance long-term operational self-sufficiency in Manitoba.

While the Manitoba operations experienced minor production impacts from an unplanned hoist gearbox failure at Lalor in June, the hoist is now repaired and fully operational, and the team strategically prioritized high-value gold zones to maintain consistent feed for the New Britannia mill. These initiatives position the business to support higher production volumes and grades in the second half of 2026, which remains aligned with annual production guidance in Manitoba.

Hudbay's Mining Fundamentals Training program, in partnership with the Northern Manitoba Sector Council, achieved a 100% conversion rate in the second quarter, with all nine cohort graduates accepting full-time roles at Hudbay. Building on this success, the team have engaged the University College of the North to further refine the curriculum. A fifth cohort, which will include participants from local Indigenous communities, is scheduled to launch in the third quarter of 2026.


The Snow Lake operations advanced key sustaining capital environmental projects during the second quarter, including construction of a cyanide recycling initiative at the New Britannia mill and construction of a dam lift at the Anderson Tailings Impoundment Area. Both projects remain on schedule for completion by the end of 2026.

Mining Activities

Total ore mined in Manitoba in the second quarter of 2026 was higher compared to the same period in 2025, reflecting an improvement over the prior year period which was impacted by a temporary suspension in operations related to wildfire evacuation orders in 2025. Conversely, total ore mined was lower than the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by reduced workforce availability, which limited effective utilization of equipment and workplaces. In the second quarter of 2026, gold grades decreased by 11% and 7% when compared to the same period in 2025 and to the first quarter of 2026, respectively, driven by planned mine sequencing.

The Lalor mine hoisted an average of approximately 3,500 tonnes of ore per day, strategically prioritizing gold zones to secure optimal feed for the New Britannia mill.

The 1901 deposit delivered approximately 7,600 tonnes of development ore in the quarter. Looking ahead, the plan is to continue to prioritize exploration and infill drilling, orebody access and critical infrastructure development as 1901 progresses toward full production in late 2027.

Total ore mined at Manitoba operations during the first half of 2026 was 2% lower than the same period in 2025, primarily driven by reduced worker hours, which was partially offset by the impact of wildfire related shutdowns in June 2025. Gold, zinc, and silver grades mined at Lalor during the first half of 2026 were 13%, 11%, and 11% lower, respectively, compared with the same period in 2025. Copper grades mined during the first half of 2026 were 2% higher than the same period in 2025.

Milling Activities

The New Britannia mill processed approximately 1,900 tonnes per day in the second quarter of 2026, matching the gold ore output from Lalor during the quarter. New Britannia continued to achieve steady gold recoveries of approximately 90%, reflecting ongoing optimization efforts.

The Stall mill processed more ore in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025, and less ore than the first quarter of 2026. Ore processed in the current quarter was consistent with Lalor base metal production. The Stall mill achieved gold recoveries of 71% during the second quarter of 2026, higher than the comparable period in 2025, reflecting recovery focused initiatives.

Hudbay also initiated early works on installing new tailings lines between the two mills, which is expected to increase the pipeline capacity to enable higher throughput and leaching of gold-bearing material at New Britannia from base metal ore originally processed at Stall mill.

Production and Sales Performance

The Manitoba operations produced 40,344 ounces of gold, 2,366 tonnes of copper, 4,760 tonnes of zinc and 209,478 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026. Production of gold and zinc decreased compared to the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to lower gold and zinc grades partially offset by higher recoveries for gold. Production of copper and silver increased compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven by the higher mill throughput and higher copper recoveries. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, production of gold, copper and silver was lower, primarily due to lower tonnes milled, while zinc production was slightly higher.

Year-to-date production of gold and zinc in 2026 was lower than the comparative 2025 period as a result of lower mined grades, partially offset by higher mill throughputs. Conversely, year-to-date production of copper and silver were higher than the comparative 2025 period due to higher copper grades, while zinc was lower due to lower grades.

Manitoba sales volumes in the second quarter of 2026 reflect typical levels of inventory and the lower production across most metals. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, quantities sold for all metals were relatively in line with variances in production with the exception of copper sales, which were slightly higher compared to the same period in 2025.


   

Cost Performance

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2026 were C$300 per tonne, an increase compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher onsite costs partially offset by higher ore milled in the period. Combined unit cost increased when compared to the first quarter of 2026 as a result of marginally higher onsite costs and lower ore milled due to reduced workforce availability, limiting the effective utilization of equipment and workplaces, as well as the failure of a critical hoist gearbox motor at Lalor.

Cash cost4, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $776 per ounce of gold. This represents an increase compared to the same period in 2025, primarily attributed to the impact of lower grades on gold production volumes and higher unit operating costs across mining, milling activities and G&A cost including profit sharing. These costs were partially offset by higher by-product credits resulting from higher metal prices. Cash cost1, net of by-product credits increased by 90% compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower gold production and the same factors impacting combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs. Despite the increase, cash cost was within the guidance range for 2026.

Sustaining cash cost4, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1,358 per ounce of gold, higher than the same period in 2025 and higher than the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the same factors affecting cash costs along with higher sustaining capital. As reflected in the Company's annual guidance, sustaining capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2025, in part due to 2026 investments to raise the dam at the Anderson Tailings Impoundment Area and the New Britannia mill cyanide recycling project.

Cash cost, net of by-product credits, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $577 per ounce of gold. These costs were 12% higher compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to lower gold production and higher mining, milling and G&A costs, partially offset by higher by-product credits. Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $1,074 per ounce of gold, an increase of 35% from the same period in 2025 primarily due to the same factors affecting cash cost noted above, together with higher sustaining capital expenditures compared to the prior year.

2 Copper Mountain mine results are stated at 100%. On April 30, 2025 Hudbay completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in the Copper Mountain mine and now owns 100%.



Overview

Hudbay continued to advance its multi-year optimization plan at Copper Mountain, achieving significant milestones in mining productivity, operational improvements and project execution in the second quarter of 2026. The British Columbia operations produced 6,455 tonnes of copper, 5,608 ounces of gold, and 71,178 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, which is aligned with guidance and the planned mining sequence. The sustained focus on safe production was highlighted with the receipt of the 2025 John Ash Safety Award from the BC Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals, recognizing Copper Mountain as the safest open pit mine in British Columbia in 2025.

The New Ingerbelle project achieved another major milestone in the second quarter of 2026 with its official groundbreaking ceremony on June 16, following its designation as a priority resource project by the British Columbia government. This expansion significantly enhances the long-term copper and gold production profile at Copper Mountain, supporting continuous operations and securing the asset's substantial economic benefits and employment baseline beyond 2040. The project is designed to access higher-grade mineralization while maximizing operational efficiency with a stripping ratio approximately three times lower than current mining areas. With key permits and refreshed First Nations participation agreements firmly in place, Hudbay is actively advancing critical infrastructure required to connect the New Ingerbelle pit expansion on the west side of the Similkameen River to existing operations on the east side. Key infrastructure within the project scope includes the construction of the west access road, a clear-span bridge across the Similkameen River, and the development of the east haul road. The project is currently on schedule with significant progress achieved on all project components. Concurrently, a targeted drilling program is underway at New Ingerbelle to upgrade inferred resources to higher confidence levels, expand resources, and further optimize the future mine plan. This program is 71% complete and is scheduled for completion in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Following the execution of refreshed participation agreements with the USIB and the LSIB earlier in the year, the Joint Implementation Committee and the Joint Technical Committee for the New Ingerbelle project were established in the second quarter of 2026. These committees are instrumental in safeguarding the environment and building transparency and constructive relationships with the Bands. 

On March 23, 2026, the LSIB submitted an application for judicial review of the regulatory decision by the Province of British Columbia to grant the New Ingerbelle permit amendment. Hudbay remains confident in the integrity and robustness of the regulatory process that led to the issuance of the permit amendment and Hudbay believes the court will uphold the decision. Hudbay is collaborating with the Province of British Columbia to prepare for a court hearing expected later in 2026.  While this review process is underway, Hudbay remains committed to working with the LSIB in a respectful and constructive manner to try to resolve the LSIB's concerns through the mechanisms that were agreed to by the parties in the Participation Agreement.

Mining Activities

Mining activities reached a record total material movement of approximately 30.1 million tonnes in the second quarter of 2026, driven by an optimized mining sequence and improved operational performance, while self-performing the construction of the east haul road for the New Ingerbelle project. As part of the accelerated stripping program, these production efficiencies resulted in a record daily average mining rate of 331,000 tonnes per day, ahead of budget. This ramp-up was supported by the successful commissioning of a new production shovel in April 2026.

Total ore mined at Copper Mountain in the second quarter of 2026 was 3.3 million tonnes, an increase of 31% and 12% compared to the second quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2026, respectively. During the second quarter of 2026, blending initiatives from the main pit maintained stable ore feed to the mill, allowing the operation to prioritize waste stripping activities to expose higher-value mining fronts in the future. The mine is now positioned favourably to unlock high-grade copper from the main pit in late 2026, and more specifically in 2027 and 2028.

Total ore mined at Copper Mountain during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 20% higher than the same period in 2025, driven by an optimized mining sequence, improved operational performance, and the accelerated stripping program as described above. In comparison, ore mined during the first half of 2026 had lower copper grades than the same period in 2025, primarily due to mine plan sequencing and mining activities during the first half of 2025 were deeper in the deposit where copper grades were higher.

Milling Activities

Mill performance continues to demonstrate improvement following the optimization efforts initiated in 2025. The second semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill delivered increased throughput in the quarter, reaching commercial production in May and averaging 12,000 tonnes per day thereafter. Throughput continues to ramp up, with individual days exceeding 20,000 tonnes per day in late June and into July.

The primary SAG mill was temporarily shut down on June 26, 2026 and will be offline until the end of July to complete the feed end head maintenance program. The replacement is tracking on schedule and will remove the constraints previously in place due to the localized damage to the feed end head that occurred in September 2025. While repairs are underway on the primary SAG mill, the second SAG continues to operate. Total mill throughput is expected to ramp up to 50,000 tonnes per day in the second half of 2026, once the primary SAG mill resumes operation.


Despite the operating constraints on the primary SAG, the mill processed 3.6 million tonnes of ore during the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 25% and 17% compared to the same period in 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, respectively. Milling throughput benefitted from improved operating parameters from the second SAG mill and the temporary conveyor system trial in place to divert crushed pebbles from the primary SAG to the second SAG. Based on the successful trial, a more permanent system is being constructed and is scheduled to be commissioned by the fourth quarter.

Milled copper grades during the second quarter of 2026 were 18% lower than the same period in 2025, as the prior year period benefited from higher grade ore mined from grade sequencing. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, copper grades were higher, driven by a greater proportion of ore feed mined from a higher-grade phase in the second quarter of 2026. Copper and gold recoveries during the quarter declined to 77% and 63%, respectively. This decline resulted from the ramp-up of mill throughput during the second quarter which revealed a grinding constraint in the ball mills, resulting in increased grind size and lower overall recoveries, compared to the first quarter of 2026. Several grinding initiatives are underway, alongside flotation advanced process controls to improve recoveries.

Milled copper grades during the first half of 2026 were lower than the same period in 2025 as the prior year period benefited from higher-grade ore contributions from the main pit, resulting in stronger metallurgical performance. Year-to-date 2026 copper and gold recoveries were 78% and 64%, respectively, representing a decline from the comparable period in 2025. This decline was a result of lower average head grades combined with a coarser grind size, which resulted from higher SAG mill throughput and the ball mill circuit operating under constraints.

The mill remains on track to achieve its permitted capacity of 50,000 tonnes per day in the second half of 2026, supported by improved throughput performance from the second SAG mill and the removal of the constraints previously in place on the primary SAG by replacing the feed end head.

Production and Sales Performance

During the second quarter of 2026, the British Columbia operations produced 6,455 tonnes of copper, 5,608 ounces of gold and 71,178 ounces of silver. Copper and gold production were lower than the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to lower mined grades, partially offset by higher throughput. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, production of all metals increased as a result of higher ore mined, improved grades and higher throughput.

During the first half of 2026, production of copper, gold and silver was 11,276 tonnes, 10,795 ounces and 114,220 ounces, respectively. Year-to-date production of all metals was lower than the same period in 2025 as a result of lower mined grades and recoveries, partially offset by higher mill throughput.

Sales volumes for all metals in the second quarter of 2026 were lower than the corresponding period in 2025, primarily driven by same factors impacting production during this period. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, copper sales volumes were consistent during the second quarter of 2026.

Year-to-date sales quantity changes compared to the same period in 2025 reflect the changes in production during the periods.

       

*Copper equivalent production is calculated using the quarter average LME prices for each metal. Copper Mountain mine production is stated at 100%. On April 30, 2025 Hudbay completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in the Copper Mountain mine and now owns 100%.


Cost Performance

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2026 were C$25.52 per tonne milled, higher than the second quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher mining, milling and G&A costs, driven by higher energy and consumable costs, partially offset by higher milled throughput. Combined unit operating costs increased marginally compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by higher mining and G&A, partially offset by lower milling costs and higher milled throughput.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were C$25.39 per tonne milled versus C$25.12 per tonne milled in the first half of 2025 primarily due to the same factors affecting the quarterly variance.

Cash cost1 and sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, were $3.22 and $6.23, respectively, per pound of copper in the second quarter of 2026. Cash cost1 was higher than the first quarter of 2026 primarily as a result of higher mining costs, less deferred stripping and lower by-product credits, partially offset by higher copper production. The increase in mill availability in the second quarter of 2026 allowed for higher mill throughput and enhanced operational efficiencies. Compared to the second quarter of 2025, cash cost was higher primarily due to higher mining, milling and G&A costs. Sustaining cash cost1 was higher than the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to the same factors affecting cash cost, together with increased sustaining capital and higher royalties.

Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $2.87 and $6.91, respectively. Variances with the same period last year were for largely the same factors affecting the quarterly variances.

2 Copper Mountain mine results are stated at 100%. On April 30, 2025 Hudbay completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in the Copper Mountain mine and now owns 100%.

Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in British Columbia and continues to expect higher production in the second half of the year as the mill improvement projects take effect. Although second quarter cash cost was above the 2026 guidance range due to external cost pressures, Hudbay expects to achieve the full year 2026 cash cost guidance range in British Columbia.


FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial Results

In the second quarter of 2026, Hudbay recorded net earnings attributable to owners of $137.4 million compared to the net earnings on the same basis of $117.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing an increase in net earnings attributable to owners of $19.7 million. Year-to-date in 2026, Hudbay recorded net earnings attributable to owners of $327.8 million compared to net earnings on the same basis of $218.1 million for the same period in 2025, representing an increase in earnings attributable to owners of $109.7 million.

Revenue

Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $631.3 million, $94.9 million higher than the same period in 2025, primarily due to stronger metal prices, lower treatment and refining charges, partially offset by lower sales volume of all metals.

Revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $1,388.6 million, $257.3 million higher than in 2025, as a result of the same factors impacting the second quarter of 2026.

While a majority of revenues continue to be from copper, gold represented a significant portion of total revenues at 38% and 39% for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. This is as a result of exposure to higher gold prices.

Realized sales prices

This measure is intended to enable management and investors to understand the average realized price of metals sold to third parties in each reporting period. 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, Hudbay 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. Hudbay expects that gains and losses on QP hedges will offset provisional pricing adjustments on concentrate sales contracts.

Hudbay's realized prices for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and March 31, 2026 and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, 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 Cash copper and zinc prices.

3 Sales of gold and silver from Constancia mine are subject to Hudbay's precious metals stream agreement with Wheaton, pursuant to which Hudbay recognizes 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 33 of this MD&A.



In addition to QP hedges, the Company may periodically undertake metal price hedging in accordance with Board approved policies to achieve strategic objectives, including locking in favourable metal prices to ensure minimum cash flows during or after the construction of a mine or during a period of reduced liquidity due to large capital investments, to manage cash flows at shorter life or higher cost operations or as part of a financing arrangement. The realized prices, denoted in the table above, exclude the impact of derivative mark-to-market gains and losses on these non-QP hedges, which are included in change in fair value of financial instruments in Hudbay's condensed consolidated interim statements of income.

Hudbay entered into forward copper sales and zero copper cost collar hedges during the first quarter of 2026 that cover approximately 35% of Copper Mountain's expected 2026 production.

As of June 30, 2026, Hudbay had the following non-QP hedges outstanding:

 Forward sales contracts for a total of 6.6 million pounds of copper production over the period of July 2026 to April 2027 at an average price of $6.03 per pound; and

 Zero-cost collar program for 13.2 million pounds of copper production over the period of July 2026 to April 2027 at an average floor price of $5.76 per pound and an average cap price of $6.36 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 2026 was $362.3 million, reflecting an increase of $2.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2025.

Peru cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $26.0 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by the build-up of finished concentrate inventory. The build-up of inventory at the port was due to ocean swell-related closures, as well as an increase in the ore stockpile, which subsequently led to lower depreciation being recognized during the quarter. Additionally, milling costs were lower primarily as a result of lower power prices compared to the same period last year once the new power purchase agreement came into effect on January 1, 2026. These decreases were partially offset by higher mining costs resulting from higher diesel prices and increased contractor services as well as higher G&A costs driven by increased employee profit sharing. Peru cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $38.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by the same factors mentioned above.


Manitoba cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 increased by $14.2 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher mining costs as a result of increased development, direct mining, and fuel costs. Milling costs also increased, reflecting fewer operational down days compared to the prior year period, which was impacted by a wildfire-related evacuation order. Additionally, the increase was a result of higher change in inventory costs and an increase in G&A costs, resulting from higher employee profit sharing. Manitoba cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 increased by $11.9 million compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by a higher change in product inventory.

British Columbia cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 increased by $14.2 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher mining costs resulting from elevated fuel prices and the timing of equipment maintenance, as well as higher milling costs driven by increased throughput, which led to higher power costs and consumables usage. Depreciation was also higher due to the acquisition of high valued capital assets that commenced depreciation during the period. These increases were partially offset by lower change in product inventory and fewer inventory adjustments. British Columbia cost of sales during the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $0.1 million compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by a build-up of product inventory. This decrease was partially offset by higher mining costs resulting from elevated fuel prices and the timing of equipment maintenance.

Total cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $751.6 million, remaining relatively consistent with the comparable period, reflecting an increase of $28.1 million.

Peru cost of sales decreased by $26.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period of 2025 primarily due to the same factors mentioned above. Manitoba cost of sales increased by $18.0 million primarily due to higher mining, milling, and G&A partially offset by lower change in product inventory and depreciation. British Columbia cost of sales increased by $36.2 million primarily driven by the same factors mentioned in the quarterly variance.

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 2026, other significant variances in expenses, compared to the same period in 2025, include the following:

- Re-evaluation DRO adjustment gain decreased by $19.3 million due to the relative revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision on Hudbay's Manitoba non-producing sites from changes in long-term risk-free discount 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 and long-term-risk free discount rates, and, as such, Hudbay may continue to experience significant quarterly environmental reclamation revaluations.

- Other operating expenses decreased by $2.4 million, primarily due to a gain of $11.5 million from business interruption insurance proceeds in Manitoba from the temporary suspension of operations related to the wildfire evacuation orders in 2025 offset by an increase in evaluation costs of $8.9 million primarily related to Mason project drilling activities.

- Other (income) expense decreased by $20.7 million, primarily due to an increase in mark-to-market gains of $53.4 million from investments, a decrease of $2.3 million in interest expense on long-term debt benefitting from the retirement of the 2026 senior unsecured notes, partially offset by an increase in foreign exchange loss of $30.9 million from the revaluation of foreign currency monetary balances and an increase in losses of $8.8 million from non-QP hedges.

For year-to-date 2026, other significant variances in expenses, compared to the same period in 2025, include the following:

- General administration expenses increased by $19.9 million, primarily due to an increase of $16.8 million in share-based compensation expense mostly from the revaluation of share units due to higher share prices compared to the prior period.

- Exploration expenses increased by $12.1 million, primarily due to Hudbay's planned Snow Lake exploration program consisting of modern geophysical programs and multi-phased drilling campaigns, most of which was funded by flow-through financing.

- Other operating expenses increased by $2.5 million, primarily due to an increase in evaluation costs of $10.6 million primarily relating to Mason project drilling activities, an increase of $5.1 million in amortization of community costs, partially offset by $11.5 million from business interruption insurance proceeds in Manitoba as noted above.

- Re-evaluation adjustment - environmental provision gain decreased by $8.6 million due to the relative revaluation of the environmental reclamation provision on Hudbay's Manitoba non-producing sites from changes in long-term risk-free discount and inflation rates.


- Other (income) expense increased by $68.9 million due to an increase in mark-to-market gains of $100.6 million from investments, an increase of $4.9 million in net interest income, a decrease of $3.8 million in net interest expense on long-term debt benefitting from the retirement of the 2026 senior unsecured notes, partially offset by a $44.7 million increase in net foreign exchange loss from the revaluation of foreign currency monetary balances.

Tax Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, tax expense increased by $63.9 million compared to the same period in 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, tax expense increased by $139.3 million compared to the same period in 2025. The following table provides further details:

Income Tax Expense/Recovery

Applying the estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate of 26.7% to Hudbay's net earnings before taxes of $579.4 million for the year-to-date of 2026 would have resulted in a tax expense of approximately $154.7 million. Hudbay recorded an income tax expense of $167.9 million. The primary items causing Hudbay's effective income tax rate to be different than the 26.7% estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate are the following:

- The tax expense with respect to Hudbay's foreign operations is recorded using an income tax rate other than the Canadian statutory income tax rate of 26.7%, resulting a tax expense of $33.2 million.

- Current mining tax deductions resulted in a tax recovery of $23.0 million.

Mining Tax Expense

For the year-to-date 2026, Hudbay recorded a mining tax expense of $81.9 million. Effective mining tax rates can vary significantly based on the composition of Hudbay's 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 Hudbay's various business units is discussed below.

Manitoba

The Province of Manitoba imposes mining tax on earnings 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 earnings if mining profit is C$50 million or less;

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

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

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

- 17% of total mining taxable earnings if mining profits exceed C$105 million.

Hudbay estimates that the deferred 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, Hudbay has recorded a deferred tax liability as at June 30, 2026, at the tax rate expected to be applied when temporary differences reverse.

British Columbia

The Province of British Columbia imposes a 13% net revenue tax on the sale of mineral products mined in the province of British Columbia after the mine owner has recovered the capital invested in the mine and its Cumulative Expenditure Account ("CEA") no longer has a balance. The tax is paid on the profit in excess of the capital that has been invested in the mine. British Columbia mineral tax is deductible for federal and provincial income tax purposes.

While there is a balance in the CEA account, the mine owner must pay a Net Current Proceeds ("NCP") tax of 2%. Any amounts paid as NCP can then be claimed in the future against net revenue taxes payable.

Hudbay estimates that the effective tax rate that will be applicable when temporary differences reverse will be approximately 9.49%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at June 30, 2026, Hudbay's total liquidity of $1,044.6 million includes $890.9 million in cash, which excludes $49.8 million in Municipal Bond proceeds that is classified as restricted cash, as well as undrawn total availability of $153.7 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities.

Senior Unsecured Notes

As at June 30, 2026, Hudbay had $542.4 million aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes.

On April 1, 2026, the Company completed the repayment of its 2026 Notes upon their maturity. The total principal amount settled was $472.5 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The repayment was funded using the Company's available cash on hand and $272.0 million through a draw on the Company's senior secured revolving credit facility.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities

Hudbay has two senior secured revolving credit facilities with total commitments of $450 million ("the Credit Facilities") for its Canadian and Peruvian businesses on substantially similar terms and conditions. The Credit Facilities include an accordion feature that allows Hudbay the option to increase the facility by an additional $150 million at Hudbay's discretion over the four-year term.

As at June 30, 2026, $272.0 million was drawn under the Credit Facilities and $24.3 million in letters of credit secured under the Canadian Credit Facility. The proceeds of the $272.0 million draw were used to repay the 2026 Notes, as mentioned earlier.

As at June 30, 2026, Hudbay was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Facilities.

Municipal Bonds

On June 24, 2026, the Arizona Industrial Development Authority issued the Municipal Bonds. The Municipal Bonds carry a fixed interest rate of 4.50%, payable semi-annually, and have an initial mandatory tender date of July 2, 2036. The Municipal Bonds represent senior unsecured obligations of Copper World LLC and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Hudbay and its primary operating subsidiaries. The proceeds from this issuance help enhance the Company's overall liquidity position and are intended to support the ongoing development and capital requirements of the Copper World project, specifically with respect to qualifying solid waste disposal expenditures.

C$130 Million Bilateral Letter of Credit Facility

Hudbay has a C$130.0 million bilateral letter of credit facility ("LC Facility") with a major Canadian financial institution. The LC Facility has no financial covenants and enables Hudbay to issue up to C$130.0 million of letters of credit to beneficiaries on an unsecured basis at attractive rates, including C$30.0 million sub-limit for financial letters of credit. As at June 30, 2026, the Manitoba business unit had drawn $55.7 million in letters of credit under the LC Facility.

Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit

As at June 30, 2026, the United States business unit had $23.2 million in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and closure obligations and the Peru business unit had $145.3 million in letters of credit issued with various Peruvian financial institutions to support future reclamation and other operating matters. In addition, the British Columbia business unit had $46.2 million in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and $1.8 million in surety bonds and letters of credit to support other operating matters. No cash collateral is required to be posted under these surety bonds.


Working Capital

Working capital increased by $817.4 million to $751.8 million from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026, primarily due to a decrease in the current portion of long-term debt of $472.1 million as a result of a full repayment of the 2026 senior unsecured debt, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $322.0 million as a result of the $411.7 million net proceeds from the sale of Copper World non-controlling interest, a decrease of $53.5 million in taxes payable, an increase in other financial assets of $52.5 million as a result of an increase in restricted cash from the $49.8 million proceeds received from the municipal bonds, a decrease in other financial liabilities of $27.9 million primarily as a result of the revaluation of derivative liabilities, a decrease in other liabilities of $27.6 million primarily relating to share-based compensation paid in the first quarter of 2026, and a decrease of $18.9 million relating to deferred revenue. These increases are offset by a $173.8 million decrease in trade and other receivables primarily related to the temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port in Peru caused by port closures resulting from ocean swells, and a decrease in inventory by $9.4 million.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes Hudbay's cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025 and for six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025:

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash generated from operating activities was $297.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $37.1 million compared to the same period in 2025. Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $210.1 million during the second quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $16.2 million compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase in operating cash flows before change in working capital compared with the second quarter of 2025 was primarily the result of higher metal prices, partially offset by higher cash taxes paid which are a function of higher profits in earlier quarters in Peru and Manitoba that were subsequently payable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026 cash generated from operating activities was $508.3 million, an increase of $123.6 million compared to the same period in 2025. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $418.8 million, an increase of $61.4 million compared to the same period in 2025. The increas was primarily the result of higher metal prices. This was partially offset by a significant increase in cash taxes paid of $101.4 million and stock based compensation paid, compared to the same period in 2025.

Cash Flow from Investing and Financing Activities

During the second quarter of 2026, Hudbay spent $408.3 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by the $472.5 million repurchase of the 2026 senior unsecured notes, $152.9 million in capital expenditures, $16.4 million in capitalized lease and equipment financing payments, $13.0 million in community agreement payments, $7.2 million in net purchases of investments, $3.1 million in financing costs paid and $2.8 million in dividends paid. This was partially offset by $272.0 million proceeds received from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026 Hudbay spent $183.0 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by the $472.5 million repurchase of the 2026 senior unsecured note, $293.1 million in capital expenditures, $38.7 million in purchase of investments, $32.5 million in capitalized lease and equipment financing payments, $30.0 million in interest paid on Hudbay's long-term debt, $16.7 million in community agreement payments, $5.9 million in financing costs paid and $5.7 million in dividends paid. This was partially offset by cash $272.0 million proceeds received from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility and $16.1 million in investment income received.

1 Peru, Manitoba and British Columbia sustaining capital expenditures include capitalized stripping costs and capitalized development.

2 Other capitalized costs primarily include right-of-use lease and equipment financing additions, which are excluded from guidance in 2026, community agreement additions and non-cash capitalized stripping.

3 Includes 100% of Copper Mountain mine production. On April 30, 2025 Hudbay completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in the Copper Mountain mine and now owns 100%.

4 Copper World growth capital shown on a 100% basis.

5 Other non-sustaining capital costs include Copper World capitalized costs, Cactus Project capitalized costs, capitalized interest, capitalized exploration, right-of-use lease asset additions, equipment financing asset additions, growth capital expenditures and reclassification related to capital spares.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, total accrued capital expenditures increased by $62.4 million and $135.5 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a planned increase in growth capital in British Columbia and planned increase in Copper World growth capital.

Sustaining capital expenditures in Manitoba for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $20.7 million and $37.9 million, respectively, representing an increase of $9.4 million and $14.1 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025, primarily driven by higher capital development at Lalor, mill improvement projects, and increased project spending on the SART plant and tailing dam raise. Sustaining capital expenditures in Peru for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $26.4 million and $49.3 million, respectively, representing a decrease of $18.0 million and $23.6 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025 as a result of the timing of various stripping campaigns and civil work projects. Sustaining capital expenditures in British Columbia for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $33.0 million and $79.9 million, respectively, which included $23.0 million and $64.9 million, respectively, of capitalized stripping related to Hudbay's planned three-year accelerated stripping campaign to access higher grade ore.


Growth capital spending in Manitoba for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $2.5 million and $45.9 million, respectively, primarily relating to the 1901 deposit, representing an increase of $0.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025. Growth capital expenditures in Peru for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $6.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, representing an increase of $4.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively. Copper World's capital expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $38.3 million and $67.9 million, respectively, mainly related to ongoing carrying costs and feasibility preparation.

Capitalized exploration for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $8.4 million and $14.2 million, respectively, primarily related to New Ingerbelle.

Hudbay expects full year sustaining capital expenditure to be in line with 2026 guidance. Full year growth capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $30 million higher than the original 2026 guidance related to additional infrastructure development costs at New Ingerbelle in British Columbia.

Capital Commitments

As at June 30, 2026, Hudbay had outstanding capital commitments in Canada of approximately $68.9 million, of which $52.4 million can be terminated, approximately $19.2 million in Peru primarily related to sustaining capital commitments and exploration option agreements, all of which can be terminated, and approximately $114.5 million in United States, primarily related to the Copper World project, of which $112.3 million can be terminated.

On a quarterly basis, Hudbay's revenue is primarily impacted by metal prices, production mix and sales volumes of the key metals Hudbay produces. In addition to these factors, gross profit, net earnings (loss) attributable, earnings (loss) per share attributable, operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital and adjusted EBITDA are also impacted by input costs. Net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share are further impacted by net finance expense and re-evaluation adjustments of Hudbay's closed site environmental provision.

During the second quarter of 2026, copper equivalent production, sales and gross margin declined compared to the most recent period, primarily driven by lower overall production volumes and lower realized gold prices compared to the first quarter of 2026. Consequently, revenue, gross profit and income before tax decreased during the quarter. Sales volumes was impacted by a temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port in Peru. This accumulation was caused by ocean swells that resulted in temporary port closures and delayed scheduled shipments, which have been realized during the first half of July 2026. In addition, given global political tensions, energy and consumable input prices have risen and this has exerted pressure on gross profit.

During the first quarter of 2026, revenue and gross profit reached record levels, driven by higher realized metal prices and disciplined cost management, which resulted in record quarterly and last twelve months adjusted EBITDA. While consolidated copper equivalent production decreased to 51,449 tonnes compared to the most recent quarter following the planned depletion of Pampacancha, consolidated cash cost improved following the successful initial ramp up of the secondary SAG mill, leading to improved throughput levels and enhanced operational efficiencies. Operating cash flow decreased primarily due to higher cash taxes paid and elevated share-based compensation payments resulting from higher share prices, these were partially offset by lower depreciation charges following the Pampacancha closure and by higher realized metal prices across all metals.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, copper equivalent production increased to 71,242 tonnes compared to the most recent quarters. This was primarily due to higher realized price across all metals, partially offset by a one-week power outage in Manitoba during the fourth quarter of 2025 due to weather related constraints. Hudbay achieved record quarterly revenue of $732.9 million as a result of high metal prices, despite the one-week operational interruption in Manitoba in October. In addition, along with continued strong cost control and productivity gains coming from previous investments in optimization efforts, Hudbay achieved record high gross profit. The cumulative effect of the high commodity prices, cost control and optimization efforts resulted in Hudbay achieving record adjusted EBITDA over a twelve month period of $1.06 billion.


During the third quarter of 2025, copper equivalent production decreased to 46,224 tonnes because of reduced copper and zinc output. This was primarily due to the temporary suspension of operations in Manitoba in July and August related to the wildfire evacuation order and the Peru temporary suspension for nine days during the third quarter of 2025 caused by social unrest. As a result of the social unrest impacting transportation routes earlier in the quarter and ocean swells impacting port shipments in late September, a 20,000 dry metric tonne copper concentrate shipment valued at $60 million was deferred to early October 2025. The temporary operational suspensions during the quarter increased pressure on gross margins and operating cash flow compared to the earlier quarters. Earnings in the third quarter of 2025 also included an after-tax impairment reversal of $242.7 million, following the announcement of the Copper World joint venture transaction with Mitsubishi for a 30% minority interest.

After adjusting for the fixed costs associated with the temporary suspensions in Manitoba and Peru, production costs continue to be well controlled and comparable to prior periods.

During the second quarter of 2025, copper equivalent production decreased to 53,693 tonnes because of reduced copper, gold and silver output. This was primarily due to the temporary suspension of operations in Manitoba in June related to the wildfire evacuation order. This was partially offset by record average gold prices and high copper prices which positively impacted gross profits and contributing to increased net income and higher earnings per share in the second quarter of 2025. While higher profitability led to significant cash taxes paid of $43.9 million, the business's strong operating performance caused the overall impact to operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital to remain positive. Higher foreign exchange gains due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar along with declining net interest cost as a result of Hudbay's deleveraging efforts led to reduced net finance expenses in the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA over the last twelve months hit a record high of $995.9 million as a result of strong operating performances at the Manitoba and Peru operations resulting in higher sales volumes, benefitting from high copper and gold prices. Net debt to EBITDA is now at its lowest level since the development of the Peru operation more than a decade ago given the business's strong operating performance in conjunction with the same aforementioned deleveraging efforts. The lower net debt and stronger cash position is despite larger reinvestment in the business through growing capital expenditures in recent years.

During the first quarter of 2025, copper equivalent production decreased to 58,611 tonnes as expected, reflecting lower production of copper, gold and silver primarily related to lower planned grades in Peru as the final stripping phase at the Pampacancha deposit was underway. This was partially offset by higher gold production in Manitoba and record average gold prices and high copper prices which positively impacted gross profits.

The Manitoba operations delivered strong quarterly throughput as expected and unlocked better-than-expected grades, resulting in higher production that exceeded Hudbay's quarterly cadence expectations. Strong cost control, a weaker Canadian dollar and meaningful exposure to gold by-product credits resulted in consolidated cash cost1 and sustaining cash cost1 per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, in the first quarter of 2025 of $(0.45) and $0.72, respectively, contributing to the increased gross margin and very strong growth in adjusted EBITDA. Higher profits since 2023 in Peru and Canada have resulted in significant cash taxes paid of $117.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, which is reflected in operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital. In addition, deleveraging efforts including the repurchases of the Company's senior secured notes over the course of 2024 led to declining net interest cost to service Hudbay's long term debt.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, copper equivalent production increased to 77,769 tonnes. Hudbay's Manitoba and Peru operations delivered strong quarterly production as expected and unlocked higher grade helping the Company exceed 2024 annual gold guidance. Strong cost control and meaningful exposure to gold by-product credits resulted in consolidated cash cost1 and sustaining cash cost1 per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits1, in the fourth quarter of 2024 of $0.45 and $1.37, respectively, contributing to Hudbay's outperformance of its improved full year 2024 cost guidance. Furthermore, the settlement of the gold prepayment liability in the third quarter of 2024, allowed Hudbay to capitalize on surging gold prices. Since acquiring Copper Mountain in June 2023, Hudbay has moved to optimization efforts which have been focused on ramping up the mining fleet to execute a planned accelerated stripping campaign to gain access to higher grades, as well as plant improvement initiatives to improve mill reliability and recoveries.

During the third quarter of 2024, profitability and cash flows grew compared to the second quarter of 2024. This strength was attributable in part to higher gold, copper and zinc production compared to the second quarter of 2024, along with returning strength in commodity prices including record gold prices. These impacts offset planned lower mined grades observed in Peru in the third quarter of 2024 and the higher cash mining taxes paid in Peru resulting from higher profitability over the past several quarters. Strong operating cost control continued into the third quarter of 2024 resulting from a number of operational initiatives and high levels of mill throughput being experienced throughout the business.


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to owners, adjusted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to owners, adjusted EBITDA, realized prices, net debt, net debt to adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, 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, combined unit cost and ratios based on these measures are non-GAAP 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 gross profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Management believes adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to owners and adjusted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to owners 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 Hudbay'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. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is shown because it is a performance measure used by the Company to assess its financial leverage and debt capacity. Realized price is shown to understand the average realized price of metals sold to third parties in each reporting period. Free cash flow is shown as it provides investors and management additional information in assessing the Company's ability to generate cash flow from current operations after investing in capital to sustain the operations. Cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced are shown because Hudbay 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 Hudbay 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 cost structure and margins that are not impacted by variability in by-product commodity prices.


Adjusted Net Earnings - Attributable to owners

Adjusted net earnings attributable to owners represents net earnings (loss) excluding certain impacts such as mark-to-market adjustments, foreign exchange (gains) loss, revaluation adjustment - environmental provisions for closed sites, variable consideration adjustment related to stream agreements, impairment charges and reversal of impairment charges on assets, (gain) loss on disposal of assets, evaluation costs, temporary shut down costs other items that are not indicative of the underlying operating performance of Hudbay's core business; and tax effect and non-controlling interest of the previously discussed items. These measures are not necessarily indicative of net earnings (loss) as determined under IFRS. The following table provides a reconciliation of net earnings and non-controlling interest per the condensed consolidated interim statements of income, to adjusted net earnings attributable to owners of the Company for the three months ended June 30 and March 31, 2026, and June 30, 2025 and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is net earnings 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. Hudbay calculates adjusted EBITDA by excluding certain adjustments included within Hudbay's adjusted net earnings attributable measure which reflects the underlying performance of Hudbay's 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 Hudbay's operations. However, Hudbay's adjusted EBITDA is not the measure defined as EBITDA under Hudbay's 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 earnings, which is calculated in accordance with IFRS. Hudbay provides adjusted EBITDA to help users analyze their results and to provide additional information about Hudbay's ongoing cash generating potential in order to assess its capacity to service and repay debt, carry out investments and cover working capital needs.

Free Cash Flow

Hudbay defines free cash flow as cash generated from operations adjusted for changes in non-cash working capital, sustaining capital expenditures and cash payments from operating sites related to leases, equipment financings and community agreements. Free cash flow is intended to provide additional information only and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. This measure is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS Accounting Standards. The following table presents Hudbay's calculation of free cash flow and reconciles to the most directly comparable IFRS measure:

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

Cash cost per pound of copper produced ("cash cost") is a non-GAAP measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of its operations. Hudbay's calculation designates copper as the 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, Hudbay's 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, affected by the relative mix of copper concentrate and zinc concentrate production, where an increase in production of zinc concentrate 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 Hudbay's operations. The economics that support Hudbay's decision to produce and sell copper would be different if Hudbay 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 its operating performance versus that of its 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, payments on equipment financing, 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 months ended June 30, and March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025 and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. 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-GAAP measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of Hudbay's Manitoba operations. This alternative cash cost calculation designates gold as the primary metal of production as it represents a substantial component of revenues for Hudbay's 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 Hudbay's Manitoba operation. The economics that support its decision to produce and sell gold would be different if Hudbay 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 Hudbay's operating performance at its Manitoba operation versus that of its 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.

- Gold sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits - This measure is an extension of gold cash cost that includes cash sustaining capital expenditures, capitalized exploration, net smelter returns royalties, 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 gold cash cost, which is focused on operating costs only.

The tables below present a detailed build-up of gold cash cost and gold sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, for the Manitoba business unit, and reconciliations between gold cash cost, net of by-product credits, to the most comparable IFRS measures of cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, and March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025 and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Gold cash cost, net of by-product credits, may not calculate exactly based on amounts presented in the tables below due to rounding.

Combined Unit Cost

Combined unit cost ("unit cost") and zinc plant unit cost is a non-GAAP measure that management uses as a key performance indicator to assess the performance of Hudbay's 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 Hudbay's cost structure and margins and compare it to similar information provided by other companies in the 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 units, and reconciliations between these measures to the most comparable IFRS measures of cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and March 31, 2026 and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND CRITICAL ESTIMATES

New standards and interpretations

For information on new standards and interpretations adopted and new standards issued but not yet effective, refer to note 3 of Hudbay's June 30, 2026 consolidated interim financial statements.

Estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Hudbay 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.

Hudbay reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis based on its experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that Hudbay believes 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 Hudbay's financial condition and results of operations because they require Hudbay 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 Hudbay's June 30, 2026 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. 

Hudbay did not make any changes to ICFR during the three months ended June 30, 2026 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect Hudbay's ICFR.

Hudbay Delivers Strong Second Quarter 2026 Results and Improves Cash Cost Guidance

Toronto, Ontario, July 29, 2026 - Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay" or the "Company") (TSX, NYSE: HBM) released its second quarter 2026 financial results today. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

"Hudbay delivered another quarter of steady operating performance and industry-leading margins, with record trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA of $1.3 billion, driven by our unique copper and gold diversification and focus on cost control," said Peter Kukielski, Chief Executive Officer. "Our diversified operations in Canada and Peru continued to achieve operating efficiencies and deliver strong gold by-product credits, which have more than offset external cost pressures and allowed us to improve our 2026 full-year consolidated cash cost guidance. We generated over $100 million in free cash flow during the quarter and more than $200 million in free cash flow through the first half of the year, allowing us to prudently reinvest in high-return growth opportunities across the business to enhance our exposure to copper and gold. Our Copper World project is on track for sanctioning later in 2026, and our recent acquisition of the Cactus project brings together two highly complementary assets in Arizona and solidifies our position as a premier Americas-focused copper producer with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets in tier-one jurisdictions.

"I am also very pleased to announce two key executive leadership appointments that will position Hudbay for the next phase of transformational growth. The appointment of Eugene Lei as President and Chief Financial Officer is a significant milestone for Hudbay and recognizes his passion and strategic vision for the long-term success of the Company. Eugene has been instrumental in the significant transformation of the Company since becoming Chief Financial Officer in 2022. He successfully executed the strategic plan to unlock Copper World, including achieving our stated balance sheet targets ahead of schedule and helping to facilitate the Copper World partnership with Mitsubishi. Rob Carter's appointment as Chief Operating Officer recognizes the significant impact he has had on the business through revitalizing our Manitoba operations into becoming a sustainable cash flow contributor and bringing that expertise to our British Columbia operations. As Andre Lauzon embarks on his well-deserved retirement, I am confident that Eugene's strategic foresight in the President role and Rob's operational leadership as Chief Operating Officer will accelerate our growth pipeline and continue to maximize shareholder returns."

Delivered Strong Second Quarter Financial Results; Production Guidance Reaffirmed and Cost Guidance Improved

  • Achieved quarterly revenue of $631.3 million, net earnings attributable to ownersi of $137.4 million, quarterly adjusted EBITDAi of $321.2 million and adjusted net earnings attributable to ownersi of $113.5 million in the second quarter, driven by steady operating performance, attractive operating margins and strong exposure to copper and gold across Hudbay's diversified operating portfolio.
  • Steady production continued in the second quarter with consolidated copper and gold production of 28,267 tonnes and 51,234 ounces, respectively, with higher copper production in line with quarterly cadence expectations while gold production was slightly lower than quarterly cadence expectations.
  • Industry-leading margins continued with consolidated cash costi and sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, of $(0.40) and $1.39 per pound of copper, respectively, in the second quarter of 2026.
  • Reaffirmed full year 2026 consolidated production guidance including 110,000 to 138,000 tonnes of copper and 217,000 to 272,000 ounces of gold.
  • Improved full year 2026 consolidated cash costi guidance to $(0.45) to $(0.25) per pound of copper from $(0.30) to $(0.10) per pound as costs are tracking well below the low end of the guidance range given strong exposure to gold by-product credits and continued operating efficiencies are more than offsetting higher input costs for fuel and consumables.

  • Peru operations produced 19,446 tonnes of copper and 5,282 ounces of gold in the second quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations with a planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the quarter. Peru cash costi, net of by-product credits, of $1.66 per pound outperformed the low end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound despite the lower planned production and higher fuel costs.
  • Manitoba operations produced 40,344 ounces of gold, 2,366 tonnes of copper, 4,760 tonnes of zinc and 209,478 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, slightly lower than quarterly cadence expectations. Manitoba cash costi of $776 per ounce of gold was within the annual guidance range of $500 to $800 per ounce.
  • British Columbia operations produced 6,455 tonnes of copper, 5,608 ounces of gold and 71,178 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations. British Columbia cash costi of $3.22 per pound of copper was higher than the annual cost guidance range of $1.50 to $2.50 primarily due to elevated fuel prices and timing of equipment maintenance. British Columbia cash cost is expected to improve in the second half of the year, in line with the annual guidance range. 
  • Second quarter earnings per share attributable to owners was $0.34 reflecting strong gross profit margins as a result of the continued focus on strong cost control and higher metal prices more than offsetting higher input costs. After adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis, second quarter adjusted earningsi per share attributable to owners was $0.28.
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $890.9 million and total liquidityii was $1,044.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2026, despite using cash to retire over $200 million in long term debt and benefitting from the approximate $420 million initial cash contribution from Mitsubishi Corporation ("Mitsubishi") received on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction in January 2026.

Continued Strong Cash Flow Generation and Prudent Balance Sheet Management

  • Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations provides exposure to higher copper and gold prices, which together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate significant free cash flow.
  • While the majority of Hudbay's revenue continues to be derived from copper production, revenue from gold production represents a meaningful portion of total revenues. Gold revenues were 38% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2026.
  • Cash generated from operating activities was $297.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $85.7 million compared to the first quarter partially as a result of favourable changes in non-cash working capital. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $210.1 million during the second quarter of 2026, relatively consistent with the first quarter.
  • Delivered free cash flowi generation of $101.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing a similar level of free cash flow generation to the first quarter through continued strong operating margins and cost controls, resulting in more than $200 million of free cash flow generated in the first half of 2026 despite investing over $200 million of sustaining capital in the business over this period.
  • Achieved quarterly adjusted EBITDAi of $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, resulting in record trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDAi of $1,271.6 million.
  • Achieved net debti of negative $80.5 million as at June 30, 2026, representing an $86.1 million improvement from the first quarter of 2026 and positioning the Company well to reinvest in high-return growth capital projects across the business.
  • Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratioi was negative 0.1x in the second quarter of 2026, significantly improved from 0.4x in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a result of the initial proceeds received from Mitsubishi on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction along with strong cash flows from operations.
  • Consistent with Hudbay's prudent balance sheet management and focus on cost of capital, Hudbay repaid $472.5 million of its outstanding 2026 senior unsecured notes on maturity on April 1, 2026, using a combination of cash on hand and a $272 million draw on its low-cost revolving credit facilities, providing the Company with enhanced financial flexibility in advance of a Copper World sanctioning decision later this year. 
  • Received proceeds of an offering of $52 million in aggregate principal amount of solid waste disposal revenue bonds with an initial mandatory tender date in 2036. These long-term, low-cost, non-amortizing U.S. municipal bonds, may be used for certain eligible costs associated with the development of Copper World.

  • Hudbay's enhanced Capital Allocation Framework is embedded into its annual financial planning cycle to provide a holistic approach to capital allocation decisions to maximize long-term risk-adjusted returns, including capital deployment into brownfield projects, greenfield projects, strategic investments and exploration, while considering debt repurchases, share buybacks and dividends.

Advancing Generational Growth Investments to Further Enhance Copper and Gold Exposure

  • The Copper World definitive feasibility study ("DFS") is progressing well, and a project sanctioning decision continues to be on track for late 2026. The DFS is expected to include scope for future mill expansion optionality.
  • Completed the acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. ("Arizona Sonoran") to bring together two highly complementary copper growth assets in Arizona and strengthen Hudbay's position as a premier Americas-focused copper company with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets located in tier-one jurisdictions. The acquisition of Arizona Sonoran enhances Hudbay's long-term copper production profile and expands its U.S. growth pipeline through the staged development of Copper World and Cactus. Hudbay expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of 2026 to advance an updated pre-feasibility study, perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs.
  • Continued to advance a large Snow Lake exploration program to further increase near-term production and mineral reserves, test regional satellite deposits for additional mill feed to utilize available capacity at Stall and explore the large land package for a new anchor deposit to meaningfully extend mine life.
  • Celebrated the official groundbreaking of the New Ingerbelle expansion project at Copper Mountain, marking a significant milestone for the operation and its long-term future in British Columbia, enhancing the copper and gold production profile and securing a longer mine life. Growth capital expenditures in British Columbia in 2026 are expected to increase by approximately $30 million to $115 million, due to additional costs associated with the development of infrastructure for New Ingerbelle.
  • Received approval from the government in Peru to further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from the previously permitted 31 million tonnes, enabling additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production.
  • Advanced initial pre-feasibility study activities at the Mason copper project in Nevada.

Summary of Second Quarter Results

Hudbay's diversified asset portfolio delivered consolidated copper production of 28,267 tonnes and consolidated gold production of 51,234 ounces in the second quarter of 2026. Consolidated copper production was higher than the first quarter of 2026 as higher mill throughput in British Columbia more than offset lower planned mill throughput in Peru. Consolidated gold production was lower than the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to lower milled gold grades. Consolidated silver production of 845,161 ounces was higher than the first quarter of 2026 due to higher grades and recoveries in British Columbia. Zinc production of 4,760 tonnes in the second quarter of 2026 also increased compared to the previous quarter, primarily reflecting higher ore grades at the Manitoba operations.

Cash generated from operating activities was $297.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $85.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2026, partially as a result of favourable changes in non-cash working capital. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $210.1 million during the second quarter of 2026 and remained relatively consistent with the first quarter of 2026.

Adjusted EBITDAi was $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease compared to the record $421.9 million achieved in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher copper prices. The lower sales volumes in the second quarter of 2026 were impacted by a temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port in Peru. This accumulation was caused by ocean swells that resulted in temporary port closures and delayed scheduled shipments of approximately 10,000 dry metric tonnes of copper concentrate, which were delivered in the first half of July 2026.

Net earnings attributable to owners was $137.4 million, or $0.34 per share, in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $190.4 million, or $0.48 per share, in the first quarter of 2026. The decrease is primarily the result of lower revenue due to lower sales volumes of all metals.

2026 No. 20
   

Adjusted net earnings attributable to ownersi and adjusted net earnings per share attributable to ownersi in the second quarter of 2026 were $113.5 million and $0.28 per share, respectively, after adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis including a $38.2 million mark-to-market revaluation net gain on various financial instruments such as investments and share-based compensation, a non-cash $12.0 million foreign exchange loss, and an $11.5 million business interruption insurance recovery related to the Manitoba mandatory wildfire evacuations shutdowns in 2025, among other items. This compares to adjusted net earnings attributable to ownersi and net earnings per share attributable to ownersi of $161.0 million and $0.40 per share, respectively, in the first quarter of 2026. The decrease is a result of lower realized metal prices for gold and the aforementioned lower sales volumes.

Consolidated cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $(0.40) per pound of copper, compared to record low cash cost of $(1.80) per pound in the first quarter of 2026. The increase from the first quarter of 2026 was a result of lower by-product credits from lower gold volumes.

Consolidated sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.39 per pound of copper, compared to $0.00 per pound in the first quarter of 2026. This increase was primarily due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash costi noted above.

Consolidated all-in sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.80 per pound of copper, higher than the first quarter of 2026 due to the same reasons noted above, partially offset by lower corporate general and administrative ("G&A") costs from the impact of the revaluation of Hudbay's share-based compensation.

As at June 30, 2026, total liquidityii was $1,044.6 million, including $890.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, which excludes $49.8 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that is classified as restricted cash, and undrawn availability of $153.7 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities. Net debti at the end of the second quarter was negative $80.5 million, marking an $86.1 million improvement from first quarter of 2026 primarily as a result of positive cash flows from operations. Hudbay expects that the current liquidity, together with cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs for the remainder of 2026.

In the second quarter of 2026, the Peru operations produced 19,446 tonnes of copper, 5,282 ounces of gold, 564,505 ounces of silver and 277 tonnes of molybdenum. Production of copper, gold and molybdenum was slightly lower compared to the first quarter of 2026, reflecting the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the second quarter of 2026. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Peru.

Total material moved during the second quarter of 2026 was 23.9 million tonnes, consistent with ore mined in the first quarter of 2026, and, in May the highest monthly total material moved over the last ten years was achieved. Peru realized improved productivity from enhanced fleet efficiency and the implementation of haulage optimization strategies.

Mill throughput levels averaged approximately 86,000 tonnes per day during the second quarter of 2026, a marginal decrease compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the scheduled semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown and the processing of more metallurgically complex ore during the second quarter of 2026. Milled copper grades decreased slightly compared to the first quarter of 2026 due to blending targets implemented to control contaminants in the concentrate. As expected, overall gold grades declined primarily due to the transition away from the higher-grade gold contributions from the Pampacancha stockpile. Metal recoveries remained in line with expectations.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costi in the second quarter of 2026 was $14.06 per tonne, which increased by 21% compared to first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher fuel prices and the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown in May 2026.

Cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1.66 per pound of copper, an increase compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower gold by-product credits resulting from lower gold volumes given the completion of mining of the high gold content Pampacancha stockpile in the first quarter, combined with higher fuel prices in the second quarter and the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown in May 2026. This increase was partially offset by lower profit sharing. Despite the increase, cash cost for the quarter continued to outperform the low-end of the 2026 guidance range as a result of strong operating cost performance and higher by-product prices more than offsetting external cost pressures. Hudbay is well positioned to achieve the full year 2026 cash cost guidance range in Peru.

Sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $2.71 per pound of copper, an increase compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the same reasons affecting cash costs above, as well as higher community agreement payments.

Sales volumes were impacted by a temporary build-up of concentrate inventory at the port caused by ocean swells that resulted in temporary port closures and delayed scheduled shipments. As a result, approximately 10,000 dry metric tonnes of copper concentrate sales were deferred to the first half of July.

In April 2026, Constancia was recognized as the safest open pit operation in Peru during the local National Mining Safety Contest for its performance in 2025. This award reflects the Company's unwavering commitment to safety and validates Constancia's compliance with the highest operational safety and regulatory standards.

The Manitoba operations continued to execute its strategic initiatives during the second quarter of 2026, navigating short-term operational hurdles while positioning the business for an expected strong second half of the year. To address labour availability constraints, Hudbay engaged an experienced mining contractor to advance the 1901 deposit. This strategic decision has enabled the team to redeploy its skilled internal workforce to other critical development areas at Lalor. The Company has simultaneously increased its internal capacity, onboarding over 100 new employees in 2026 who are currently undergoing upskilling to enhance long-term operational self-sufficiency in Manitoba.

While the operations experienced minor production impacts from an unplanned hoist gearbox failure at Lalor in June, the hoist is now repaired and fully operational, and the team strategically prioritized high-value gold zones to maintain consistent feed for the New Britannia mill. These initiatives position the business to support higher production volumes and grades in the second half of 2026, which remains aligned with annual production guidance in Manitoba.

The Manitoba operations produced 40,344 ounces of gold, 2,366 tonnes of copper, 4,760 tonnes of zinc and 209,478 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026. Compared to the first quarter of 2026, production of gold, copper and silver was lower primarily due to lower tonnes milled, while zinc production was slightly higher. Production in the second half of 2026 is expected to be higher than the first half of 2026 due to grade sequencing and higher ore output from Lalor, as previously disclosed. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Manitoba.

The Lalor mine hoisted an average of approximately 3,500 tonnes of ore per day in the second quarter of 2026, strategically prioritizing gold zones to secure optimal feed for the New Britannia mill. Total ore mined in the second quarter of 2026 was lower than the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by reduced workforce availability, which limited effective utilization of equipment and workplaces. In the second quarter of 2026, gold grades decreased by 7% when compared to the first quarter of 2026, driven by planned mine sequencing.

The 1901 deposit delivered approximately 7,600 tonnes of development ore in the second quarter of 2026. Looking ahead, the plan is to continue to prioritize exploration and infill drilling, orebody access and critical infrastructure development as 1901 progresses toward full production in late 2027.

The New Britannia mill processed approximately 1,900 tonnes per day in the second quarter of 2026, matching the gold ore output from Lalor during the quarter. New Britannia continued to achieve steady gold recoveries of approximately 90%, reflecting ongoing optimization efforts. The Stall mill processed less ore in the second quarter than the first quarter of 2026, consistent with the Lalor base metal production. The Stall mill achieved gold recoveries of 71% during the second quarter of 2026, continuing to reflect recovery focused initiatives. The Company also initiated early works on installing new tailings lines between the two mills, which is expected to increase the pipeline capacity to enable higher throughput and leaching of gold-bearing material at New Britannia from base metal ore originally processed at Stall mill.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costsi in the second quarter of 2026 were C$300 per tonne, an increase compared to the first quarter of 2026 as a result of marginally higher onsite costs and lower ore milled due to reduced workforce availability, limiting the effective utilization of equipment and workplaces, as well as the failure of a critical hoist gearbox motor at Lalor.

Cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $776 per ounce of gold. This represents a 90% increase compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower gold production and higher unit operating costs across mining, milling activities and G&A, impacted by the same factors as combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs. Despite the increase, cash cost was within the guidance range for 2026 and Hudbay remains on track to achieve its full year cash cost guidance range in Manitoba.

Sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the second quarter of 2026 was $1,358 per ounce of gold, higher than the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to the same factors affecting cash costs along with higher sustaining capital.

The Snow Lake operations advanced key sustaining capital environmental projects during the second quarter, including construction of a cyanide recycling initiative at the New Britannia mill and construction of a dam lift at the Anderson Tailings Impoundment Area. Both projects remain on schedule for completion by the end of 2026.

5 Copper Mountain mine results are stated at 100%. On April 30, 2025 Hudbay completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in the Copper Mountain mine and now owns 100%.

Hudbay continued to advance its multi-year optimization plan at Copper Mountain, achieving significant milestones in mining productivity, operational improvements and project execution in the second quarter of 2026.

The British Columbia operations produced 6,455 tonnes of copper, 5,608 ounces of gold, and 71,178 ounces of silver in the second quarter of 2026, which increased compared to the first quarter of 2026 for all metals as a result of higher ore mined, improved grades and higher throughput. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in British Columbia and continues to expect higher production in the second half of the year as the mill improvement projects take effect. 

In May 2026, Copper Mountain received the 2025 John Ash Safety Award from the BC Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals, recognizing Copper Mountain as the safest open pit mine in British Columbia in 2025, demonstrating Hudbay's sustained focus on safety.

Mining activities reached a record total material movement of approximately 30.1 million tonnes in the second quarter of 2026, driven by an optimized mining sequence and improved operational performance, while self-performing the construction of the east haul road for the New Ingerbelle project. As part of the accelerated stripping program, these production efficiencies resulted in a record daily average mining rate of 331,000 tonnes per day, ahead of budget. This ramp-up was supported by the successful commissioning of a new production shovel in April 2026.

2026 No. 20
   

Total ore mined at Copper Mountain in the second quarter of 2026 was 3.3 million tonnes, an increase of 12% compared to the first quarter of 2026. During the second quarter of 2026, blending initiatives from the main pit maintained stable ore feed to the mill, allowing the operation to prioritize waste stripping activities to expose higher-value mining fronts in the future. The mine is now positioned favourably to unlock higher-grade copper from the main pit in late 2026, and more specifically in 2027 and 2028.

Mill performance continues to demonstrate improvement following the optimization efforts initiated in 2025. The second semi-autogenous grinding ("SAG") mill delivered increased throughput in the quarter, reaching commercial production in May and averaging 12,000 tonnes per day thereafter. Throughput continues to ramp up, with some days exceeding 20,000 tonnes per day in late June and into July.

The primary SAG mill was temporarily shut down on June 26, 2026 and will be offline until the end of July to complete the feed end head maintenance program. The replacement is tracking on schedule and will remove the constraints previously in place due to the localized damage to the feed end head that occurred in September 2025. While repairs are underway on the primary SAG mill, the second SAG continues to operate. Total mill throughput is expected to ramp up to 50,000 tonnes per day in the second half of 2026, once the primary SAG mill resumes operation.

Despite the operating constraints on the primary SAG, the mill processed 3.6 million tonnes of ore during the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 17% compared to the first quarter of 2026, benefitting from improved operating parameters from the second SAG mill and the temporary conveyor system trial in place to divert crushed pebbles from the primary SAG to the second SAG. Based on the successful trial, a more permanent system is being constructed and is scheduled to be commissioned by the fourth quarter.

Milled copper grades during the second quarter of 2026 were higher compared to the first quarter of 2026, driven by a greater proportion of ore feed mined from a higher-grade phase in the second quarter of 2026. Copper and gold recoveries during the quarter declined to 77% and 63%, respectively. This decline resulted from the ramp-up of mill throughput during the second quarter which revealed a grinding constraint in the ball mills, resulting in increased grind size and lower overall recoveries compared to the first quarter of 2026. Several grinding initiatives are underway, alongside flotation advanced process controls to improve recoveries.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the second quarter of 2026 were C$25.52 per tonne milled, a marginal increase compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by higher mining and G&A costs, partially offset by lower milling costs and higher milled throughput.

Cash costi and sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, were $3.22 and $6.23, respectively, per pound of copper in the second quarter of 2026. Cash costi was higher than in the first quarter of 2026 primarily as a result of higher mining costs, less deferred stripping and lower by-product credits, partially offset by higher copper production. The increase in mill availability in the second quarter of 2026 allowed for higher mill throughput and enhanced operational efficiencies. Although second quarter cash cost was above the 2026 guidance range due to external cost pressures, Hudbay expects to achieve the full year 2026 cash cost guidance range in British Columbia.

He is a Professional Engineer and holds a master's degree in Mineral Economics from the Colorado School of Mines and a bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering from Queen's University.

Continued Free Cash Flow Generation Driven by Strong Operating Margins; External Cost Pressures Insulated by Diversified Copper and Gold Exposure

Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations provides exposure to strong commodity prices, which together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate attractive free cash flow. While the majority of Hudbay's revenue continues to be derived from copper production, revenue from gold production represents a meaningful portion of total revenues, with gold accounting for 38% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2026.

Hudbay's cost control efforts are focused on navigating external cost pressures, such as higher fuel and consumable costs. The Company continues to manage costs and deliver strong margins through initiatives to further improve throughput and enhance operating efficiencies. Despite such external cost pressures in the second quarter, Hudbay achieved consolidated cash costi of negative $0.40 per pound of copper and generated operating cash flow of over $200 million and free cash flow of over $100 million, similar to the first quarter of 2026. Hudbay continues to benefit from its diversified platform with significant by-product credits from gold production.

The Company had $890.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and net debti of negative $80.5 million at the end of the second quarter of 2026. Hudbay's strong cash position and continued prudent balance sheet management position the Company well to advance its generational growth investments across the portfolio and allocate capital to the highest risk-adjusted return opportunities to deliver significant value for stakeholders.

Copper World DFS Progressing Well and Project Sanctioning on Track for Late 2026

In January 2026, Hudbay announced the closing of the joint venture transaction with Mitsubishi, securing a premier, long-term strategic partner for the development of Copper World. The $420 million of initial proceeds received at closing from Mitsubishi will be used to directly fund the remaining DFS costs and pre-sanctioning costs in addition to the initial project development costs for Copper World. Mitsubishi will contribute an additional $180 million within 18 months of closing to complete its 30% minority investment and will also fund its pro-rata 30% share of future equity capital contributions.

Feasibility activities for the Copper World DFS are progressing well, with 95% of the engineering work completed, and a sanctioning decision remains on track for later in 2026. The DFS is expected to reflect higher capital expenditures as compared to the 2023 pre-feasibility study primarily due to typical cost inflation along with new capital related to project scope changes that would allow for future mill expansion optionality, while continuing to generate robust economics.


On June 24, 2026, Copper World LLC received proceeds of an offering of $52.0 million aggregate principal amount of solid waste disposal revenue bonds due July 2, 2036 (the "Municipal Bonds"). The Municipal Bonds were issued by the Arizona Industrial Development Authority at par and carry a fixed interest rate of 4.5% per annum, with interest payable by Copper World LLC semi-annually. The Municipal Bond proceeds may be used for certain eligible costs associated with the development of the Copper World project and are treated as restricted cash on Hudbay's balance sheet.

Completion of the Arizona Sonoran Acquisition to Create the Third Largest Copper District in North America

On June 24, 2026, Hudbay successfully completed its previously announced acquisition of Arizona Sonoran ("ASCU"), pursuant to which Hudbay acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of ASCU not already owned by Hudbay (the "ASCU Transaction").


TSX, NYSE – HBM
2026 No. 20
   

As a result of the completion of the ASCU Transaction, Arizona Sonoran became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hudbay and Hudbay acquired 100% ownership of Arizona Sonoran's Cactus project. In aggregate, Hudbay issued 46,794,082 Hudbay common shares under the ASCU Transaction to former Arizona Sonoran shareholders as consideration for their shares. Following the closing of the ASCU Transaction, the Arizona Sonoran shares were de-listed from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and Arizona Sonoran ceased to be a reporting issuer pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws.

The ASCU Transaction brings together two highly complementary copper growth assets in Arizona and strengthens Hudbay's position as a premier Americas-focused copper company with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets located in tier-one jurisdictions. The ASCU Transaction is expected to enhance Hudbay's long-term copper production profile, expand its U.S. growth pipeline, and generate significant operational efficiencies and regional synergies with Hudbay's staged development of Copper World and Cactus.

Hudbay expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of 2026 to advance an updated pre-feasibility study ("PFS"), perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs. The updated Cactus PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.

New Ingerbelle Expansion Project Underway to Enhance Copper and Gold Production Profile at Copper Mountain

In June 2026, Hudbay celebrated the official groundbreaking of the New Ingerbelle expansion project at Copper Mountain, marking a significant milestone for the operation and its long-term future in British Columbia. The event was attended by Hudbay's executive team, employees, B.C.'s Minister of Mining and Critical Minerals, the B.C. Mining Association, the Chief of the Upper Similkameen Indian Band, regional representatives, and leaders from the local community. The event was also recognized by Canada's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources.

New Ingerbelle enhances the copper and gold production profile and secures a longer mine life at Copper Mountain. Based on current mineral reserves, New Ingerbelle is projected to produce approximately 750,000 tonnes of copper, 900,000 ounces of gold and 5.5 million ounces of silver over the life of mine. Designed to access higher-grade mineralization, the expansion also features a stripping ratio approximately three times lower than current mining areas. 

The groundbreaking comes shortly after the Government of British Columbia added New Ingerbelle to its list of priority resource projects, recognizing initiatives that support economic growth, responsible resource development and long-term value creation across the province. The New Ingerbelle expansion received key mining permits on February 19, 2026 from the British Columbia Major Mines Office ("MMO") following a robust review and consultation process. Throughout the permitting process, Hudbay proactively engaged with the MMO, local communities, the Upper Similkameen Indian Band ("USIB") and the Lower Similkameen Indian Band ("LSIB") to ensure transparency and collaborative oversight and to seek consensus, although as previously disclosed, the LSIB subsequently submitted an application for judicial review of the regulatory decision to grant the New Ingerbelle permit amendment.

With key permits in place, Hudbay is advancing important infrastructure required for the expansion, including an access road, a bridge across the Similkameen river and an east haul road connecting New Ingerbelle to existing operations. Growth capital expenditures in British Columbia in 2026 are expected to increase by approximately $30 million to $115 million related to additional costs associated with infrastructure development at New Ingerbelle. Hudbay expects similar levels of growth capital investments in British Columbia in 2027 related to the continued infrastructure development at New Ingerbelle, which is expected to achieve first production in late 2028. The Company has also initiated a targeted drilling program at New Ingerbelle, focusing on upgrading existing inferred resources to reserves to further optimize and extend the mine life at Copper Mountain.

Peru Regulatory Approval Received to Further Increase Mill Throughput at Constancia

Hudbay received approval from the National Environmental Certification Service for Sustainable Investments in Peru to amend its environmental permit and further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia. The approval was received in late June and represented the fifth environmental permit amendment at Constancia. The amended permit increases the processing capacity of the Constancia mill to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from the previously permitted 31 million tonnes. In March 2026, Hudbay received permit approval to increase mill throughput capacity to 31 million tonnes from 29.9 million tonnes per annum.

2026 No. 20
   

As part of the Company's continuous improvement efforts, the updated permit enables additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production. Hudbay's efforts to increase mill throughput align with the Peru Ministry of Energy and Mines' regulatory framework, which permits operational flexibility to operate up to 10% above nominal daily capacity. Hudbay achieved total ore processed of 30.3 million tonnes and 31.9 million tonnes in 2025 and 2024, respectively. With this permit amendment, Hudbay is aligning its operational capacity to support the new level of 34 million tonnes per annum, while maintaining the standard operational flexibility to handle daily increases of up to 10% above permitted levels.

Large Exploration Drill Program Continues in Snow Lake

Hudbay continues to execute the largest exploration program in Snow Lake in the Company's history through extensive geophysical surveying and drilling campaigns as part of Hudbay's multi-pronged exploration strategy:

 Near-mine Exploration at Lalor and 1901 to Further Increase Near-term Production and Extend Mine Life - Near-mine exploration at the Lalor mine and the adjacent 1901 deposit continued to support near-term production growth and mine life extension. The exploration program will continue during the remainder of 2026 to potentially increase mineral reserves and resources and enable additional resource conversion. At the 1901 deposit, activities are focused on exploration and definition drilling, orebody access and establishing the critical infrastructure required to support full production beginning in late 2027. Exploration activities at 1901 will include step-out drilling to potentially extend the orebody, as well as infill drilling aimed at converting inferred mineral resources within the gold lenses to mineral reserves.

 Evaluating Significant Gold Production Potential from Past-Producing New Britannia mine - Acquired through the New Britannia mill acquisition in 2015, the past-producing New Britannia mine provides potential for significant incremental gold production in Snow Lake. The Company is developing an exploration plan to test down plunge extensions and underexplored areas between known deposits at the mine. Hudbay plans to conduct infill and expansion drilling at the 3 Zone, a satellite deposit to New Britannia, with three drills scheduled for later in 2026.

 Testing Regional Satellite Deposits to Utilize Available Processing Capacity and Increase Production - Hudbay's extensive regional land package includes an attractive portfolio of deposits in Snow Lake within trucking distance of the Snow Lake processing infrastructure, including the Talbot, Rail, Pen II, Watts and WIM deposits. With available mill processing capacity at the Stall mill, the Company continues to progress exploration work across the region to define satellite deposits to potentially increase production and extend the life of the Snow Lake operations beyond 2041. During the second quarter of 2026, the infill drilling program at Talbot was completed as well as the geotechnical drilling required for PFS activities. The Company is also testing additional targets to expand the footprint of the deposit at depth. Hudbay intends to update Rockcliff's prior mineral resource estimate for Talbot using Hudbay's standard methods.

 Exploring Large Land Package for New Anchor Deposit to Significantly Extend Mine Life - A majority of the land claims acquired as part of the Rockcliff acquisition in 2023 have been untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor deposit. The large geophysics program underway consisting of surface electromagnetic surveys using cutting edge techniques that enable the team to detect targets at depths of almost 1,000 metres below surface. The planned 2026 geophysics program includes 600 kilometres of ground electromagnetic surveys and an extensive airborne geophysics survey.

Mason Project Commences Pre-feasibility Study Activities

The Mason project is a 100% owned greenfield copper deposit located in the historic Yerington District of Nevada and is one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry deposits in North America. Hudbay views the Mason project as a long-term future development asset as part of the Company's pipeline of high-quality copper growth opportunities.

Hudbay completed a preliminary economic assessment on Mason in 2021 which contemplated a 27-year mine life with average annual copper production of approximately 140,000 tonnes over the first ten years of full production. The Company recently initiated PFS activities at Mason and expects to spend approximately $20 million in evaluation expenses at Mason for the remainder of 2026. The Mason PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.

Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures

Adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to owners, adjusted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to owners, adjusted EBITDA, net debt, net debt to adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, 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, combined unit cost and ratios based on these measures are non-GAAP 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) attributable to owners and adjusted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to owners 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. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is shown because it is a performance measure used by the Company to assess its financial leverage and debt capacity. Free cash flow is shown as it provides investors and management additional information in assessing the Company's ability to generate cash flow from current operations after investing in capital to sustain the operations. 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.
