Hudbay Minerals Q3 2026 net income falls to $151M
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Hudbay Minerals Inc. (HBM) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $765.9 million, compared with $346.8 million a year earlier, while net income was $151.0 million, versus $222.4 million. Earnings per share were $0.34, compared with $0.56. For the nine months, revenue was $2,154.5 million versus $1,478.1 million and net income was $480.6 million versus $436.3 million.
Cash generated from operating activities in the quarter was $214.9 million, compared with $113.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents were $788.7 million at September 30, 2026, including $290.1 million held at Copper World for its exclusive use. Long-term debt was $838.7 million; Hudbay repaid $472.5 million of 2026 notes at maturity using cash on hand and a $272.0 million revolving-credit draw.
Hudbay completed its Arizona Sonoran acquisition on June 24, 2026, issuing 46,794,082 common shares and obtaining control of ASCU and its Cactus project. Mitsubishi completed a 30% Copper World investment, with $422.7 million cash consideration received and $169.8 million deferred consideration receivable, which will accrete up to $180 million over 18 months. Copper World transaction cash is designated for Copper World's exclusive use, not general use by Hudbay's consolidated group.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.
Positive
- Moderate pointThird-quarter revenue reached $765.9 million, versus $346.8 million a year earlier.
- Moderate pointNine-month net income increased to $480.6 million from $436.3 million.
Negative

The Company's common shares are listed under the symbol "HBM" on the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and Bolsa de Valores de Lima.
2. Basis of preparation
(a) Statement of compliance:
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and do not include all of the information required for 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 6).
The Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements on November 11, 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.
- Valuation of assets in an asset acquisition (note 5) - As the Company acquired Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. ("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. Reclassification of comparative amounts
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. Share-based compensation expenses has been reclassified to its own financial statement line item within the condensed consolidated interim income statement due to the size of the balance. The balance was previously included in Selling and administrative expenses as well as Other operating expenses. Evaluation expenses has been reclassified to its own financial statement line item within the condensed consolidated interim income statement due to an increase in the balance. The balance was previously included in Other operating expenses. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income.
4. 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 performance measures known as management-defined performance measures ("MPMs"). 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. Based on the Company's preliminary assessment, the following are the expected impacts upon initial application of IFRS 18:
- In the consolidated statements of income, all income and expenses will be grouped into new categories resulting in new subtotals and/or line items being presented and changes in how certain existing subtotals are calculated. In the consolidated statements of cash flows, operating profit will be used as the starting point for determining cash flows from operating activities, rather than net income.

- In the notes to the consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to provide disclosures for MPMs. MPMs are subtotals of income and expenses that are not specified by IFRS Accounting Standards and are used in the public communications outside the financial statements to communicate management's view of an aspect of the Company's financial performance. Based on preliminary assessments, the Company has identified adjusted net earnings (loss) attributable to owners, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash cost, net of by-product credits as MPMs. The assessment for other potential MPMs is currently in progress.
5. 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 became a wholly owned subsidiary of Hudbay. Subsequent to the acquisition Hudbay undertook a reorganization of ASCU, resulting in Cactus now being 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 23b). 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, all of these costs have been paid in cash.
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.

6. 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 initially 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded $1.7 million and $4.9 million, respectively, in accretion in long term receivable related to the deferred consideration within finance income (note 8f). 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.

7. 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 17) 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 |

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 20). 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026 resulted in a decrease in revenue of $0.1 million (nine months ended September 30, 2025 - increase in revenue of $9.9 million).

The Flin Flon concentrator and tailings impoundment is on care and maintenance to provide optionality should another mineral discovery occur in the Flin Flon area. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, care & maintenance costs were $4.0 million and $10.9 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $3.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, a recovery of $11.5 million was recorded to reflect business interruption insurance proceeds related to the wildfire evacuation and temporary suspension of operations at Manitoba. As of September 30, 2026, all of the proceeds related to this gain have been received.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Manitoba business unit incurred costs related to emergency and evacuation activities of $1.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively, as a result of regional wildfires in Snow Lake, Flin Flon and surrounding areas.

On August 12, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Mitsubishi, pursuant to which Mitsubishi agreed to acquire a 30% interest in Copper World, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hudbay which owns the fully-permitted Copper World Project in Arizona, which was completed in January 2026 (note 6).
The JV Transaction has been determined to be an indicator of impairment reversal for the Arizona cash generating unit ("CGU"). As a result, an assessment of the recoverable amount of the Arizona CGU was performed. The recoverable amount of the Arizona CGU exceeded the carrying amount of $784.4 million.
Based on this market evidence and updated assumptions, the Company recognized a $322.3 million pre-tax impairment reversal in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The reversal is limited to the amount of the previous impairment and does not increase the carrying amount above the level that would have been determined had no impairment been recognized previously.
(e) Consideration received from sale of non-core project
As part of a contingent consideration deed dated December 12, 2022, Harmony Gold (Australia) PTY Limited agreed to pay the Company a contingent amount upon the discovery of a new resource beyond certain parameters at the Eva project, which was previously sold by Copper Mountain prior to Hudbay's acquisition of Copper Mountain in June 2023. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, a new applicable resource was discovered at the Eva project. As a result, the Company recognized the contingent payment received of $0.9 million as other income on the condensed consolidated interim statements of income (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $14.9 million).

1Primarily all of the low grade stockpile inventory is expected to be processed at the end of the Copper Mountain mine life.
The cost of inventories recognized as an expense, including depreciation and included in cost of sales, amounted to $361.3 and $1,006.0 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $224.7 million and $855.0 million, respectively).
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, Hudbay recognized an expense of nil and $0.9 million in cost of sales related to the writedown of certain non-current inventory supplies (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - nil and $3.3 million, respectively).
During 2025, as a result of the Manitoba wildfires and the social unrest in Peru, both the Manitoba and Peru operations underwent a temporary suspension of operations. Due to a temporary suspension of operations, fixed overhead costs are recognized directly to cost of sales. Fixed overhead costs of $22.4 million and $25.6 million were incurred at Manitoba for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, which were recognized directly to cost of sales. Additionally, Peru incurred $10.9 million in fixed overhead costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, which were recognized directly to cost of sales.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Hudbay recognized a recovery of $1.3 million and an expense of $0.1 million, respectively, in cost of sales primarily related to adjustments of the carrying value of copper concentrate inventory and stockpile inventory to net realizable value.

As at September 30, 2026, current financial assets include $50.1 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 19c). The Municipal bonds were issued by the Arizona Industrial Development Authority and have an initial mandatory tender date of July 2, 2036. For the nine months ended September 30, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded additions of $84.3 million, unrealized mark-to-market gains of $134.2 million (note 8f), disposals of $0.6 million, unrealized foreign exchange losses of $4.6 million and cancellation of ASCU shares as part of an asset acquisition of $123.1 million (note 5).

15. Goodwill

| Effects of changes in foreign exchange | (2.4 | ) | |
| Balance, September 30, 2026 | $ | 70.2 |
As of September 30, 2026, all of the Company's goodwill relates to the British Columbia CGU. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually on July 1 or when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the CGU.
For the annual impairment test completed at July 1, 2026, fair value less costs of disposal ("FVLCD") was used to determine the recoverable amount since it is higher than value in use. FVLCD was calculated using discounted after-tax cash flows based on cash flow projections and assumptions in Hudbay's most current LOM. The fair value measurement in its entirety is categorized as Level 3 based on the degree to which fair value inputs are observable and have a significant effect on the recorded fair value. LOM plans are based on optimized mine and processing plans and the assessment of capital expenditure requirements of a mine site for the CGU.
Management used judgement in determining estimates and assumptions with respect to discount rates, future production levels including amounts of recoverable reserves, resources and exploration potential, operating and capital costs, long-term metal prices and future foreign exchange rates. Metal pricing assumptions were based on consensus forecast pricing, and the discount rates were based on a weighted average cost of capital, adjusted for country risk and other risks specific to the CGU. Cash flows were projected through to 2045. Changes in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair values could impact the impairment analysis.
The discount rate was based on the CGU's weighted average cost of capital, of which the two main components are the cost of equity and the after-tax cost of debt. Cost of equity was calculated based on the capital asset pricing model, incorporating the risk-free rate of return based on the Canadian Government's marketable bond yields as at the valuation date, the Company's beta coefficient adjustment to the market equity risk premium based on the volatility of the Company's return in relation to that of a comparable market portfolio, plus a country risk premium, size premium and company-specific risk factor. Cost of debt was determined by applying an appropriate market indication of the Company's borrowing capabilities and the corporate income tax rate applicable to the segment's jurisdiction. A real discount rate of 7.25% (December 31, 2025 - 7.00%) for the British Columbia CGU was used to calculate the estimated after- tax discounted future net cash flows, commensurate with its individual estimated level of risk.
Commodity prices used in the impairment assessment were determined by reference to external market participant sources. The key commodity price for this assessment is the price of copper. The cash flow calculations were based on estimates of future production levels applying forecasts for metal prices, which utilized a long-term copper price of $4.75/lb (December 31, 2025 - $4.25/lb), and capital, operating and reclamation costs based on the most current LOM plans.
Expected future cash flows used to determine the FVLCD in the impairment test are inherently uncertain and could materially change over time. The Company has conducted an analysis of the sensitivity of the impairment test to changes in the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the CGUs to which goodwill is allocated. Management believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount is based would not cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the aggregate recoverable amount of the related CGU.
The estimated recoverable amount of the British Columbia CGU including goodwill exceeded its carrying amount as at July 1, 2026, accordingly no impairment was recorded.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, there was a change in estimate related to amendments of life of mine agreements with respect to Constancia resulting in net additions of $2.1 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, accretion related to these liabilities were $0.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $0.4 million and $0.7 million) (note 8f).
As part of the ASCU Transaction (note 5), 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 private land purchases 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 private land 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.

Hudbay has entered into leases which expire between 2026 and 2037. The interest rates on leases which were capitalized have interest rates between 2.84% 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.

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 nine months ended September 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:

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 nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $4.2 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 September 30, 2026, decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities have been discounted to their present value at rates ranging from 2.38% to 5.71% 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 nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a non-cash loss of $0.4 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 17). 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 19b) 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 19a) has been determined using an applicable credit-risk adjusted discount rate (level 3).
11 Fair value of the municipal bonds (note 19c) 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 17) 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 nine months ended September 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.

(c) Provisionally priced receivables
Changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables
Hudbay records changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables related to provisional pricing in concentrate purchase, concentrate sale and certain other sale contracts. Under the terms of these contracts, prices are subject to final adjustment at the end of a future period after title transfers based on quoted market prices during the quotation period specified in the contract. The period between provisional pricing and final pricing is typically up to three months.
Changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables are presented in trade and other receivables when they relate to sales contracts and in trade and other payables when they relate to purchase contracts. At each reporting date, provisionally priced metals are marked-to-market based on the forward market price for the quotation period stipulated in the contract, with changes in fair value recognized in revenue for sales contracts and in inventory or cost of sales for purchase concentrate contracts. Cash flows related to changes in fair value of provisionally priced receivables are classified in operating activities.
As at September 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) | |||||||||||

SUMMARY
Delivered Record Third Quarter Results; Production Guidance Reaffirmed and Cost Guidance Further Improved
• Achieved record quarterly revenue of $765.9 million, net earnings attributable to owners1 of $149.5 million, and quarterly adjusted EBITDA1 of $413.4 million, driven by steady operating performance, attractive operating margins and strong exposure to copper and gold across Hudbay's diversified operating portfolio.
• Higher consolidated copper production of 30,152 tonnes and gold production of 69,513 ounces in the third quarter of 2026, representing a 7% and 36% increase, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2026.
• Continued to demonstrate industry-leading margins with consolidated cash cost1 and sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, of $(0.19) and $1.61 per pound of copper respectively, in the third 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.
• Further improved full year 2026 consolidated cash cost1 guidance range to $(0.55) to $(0.35) per pound of copper, an additional improvement from the previously updated guidance range of $(0.45) to $(0.25) per pound of copper, as year-to-date results are trending well below the low end of the cash cost range.
• Improved full year 2026 consolidated sustaining cash cost guidance range to $1.40 to $1.80 per pound copper from the original guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound of copper as a result of strong exposure to gold by-product credits and continued strong operating cost control. Full year 2026 consolidated sustaining capital expenditures expected to be $35 million lower than guidance levels due to lower capitalized stripping in Peru and British Columbia and capital deferrals and efficiencies.
• Peru operations demonstrated steady operating performance with production of 20,572 tonnes of copper and 5,267 ounces of gold in the third quarter of 2026. Peru cash cost1, net of by-product credits, of $2.23 per pound exceeded the upper end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound primarily due to lower by-product credits, partially offset by better treatment and refining charges.
• Achieved record Constancia mill throughput of approximately 91,000 tonnes per day in the third quarter, on track to achieve 34 million tonnes per annum in 2027.
• Manitoba operations demonstrated strong operating performance and executed on the commitment to deliver a stronger second half of 2026 with production of 57,261 ounces of gold, 3,012 tonnes of copper, 3,691 tonnes of zinc and 268,346 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Manitoba cash cost1 of $403 per ounce of gold outperformed the low end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $500 to $800 per ounce as a result of higher by-product prices.
• Continued to exceed Snow Lake mill performance expectations with record New Britannia mill throughput of 2,250 tonnes per day and record Stall gold recoveries of 73.6% in the third quarter.
• British Columbia operations showed improving operating performance with production of 6,568 tonnes of copper, 6,985 ounces of gold and 52,010 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations. British Columbia cash cost1 of $3.09 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, higher fuel consumption from increased material moved and timing of equipment maintenance. While British Columbia cash cost1 is expected to improve in the fourth quarter with higher expected production volumes full year cash cost is expected to track towards the high end of the annual guidance range.
• Achieved Copper Mountain mill throughput of approximately 43,500 tonnes per day in September, reflecting successive monthly increases after the completion of mill maintenance at the primary SAG mill in July, and on track to achieve the targeted 50,000 tonnes per day by the end of the year. The third quarter represented the first quarter of positive free cash flow1 at Copper Mountain since its acquisition by Hudbay, demonstrating the benefits from continued operating efficiencies, recent mill improvement initiatives and ongoing execution of the accelerated stripping program.
• Third quarter earnings per share attributable to owners was $0.34, reflecting strong gross profit margins as a result of the continued focus on cost control and higher metal prices more than offsetting higher input costs. After adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis, third quarter adjusted earnings1 per share attributable to owners was $0.34.
2
• Cash and cash equivalents were $788.7 million and total liquidity2 was $964.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2026, before giving effect to a $250 million increase in size to Hudbay's credit facilities in November 2026. Cash and cash equivalents exclude $50.1 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that are classified as restricted cash and reflect $45.0 million in net purchases of investments and $22.0 million of debt repayments during the third quarter of 2026.
Record Trailing Twelve-month EBITDA and Free Cash Flow Generation; Strong Balance Sheet and Significant Financial Flexibility
• Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations, together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate significant free cash flow.
• Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $313.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $103.8 million compared to the second quarter as a result of record quarterly revenue and maintaining strong operating margins.
• Delivered free cash flow1 generation of $201.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of approximately $100 million compared to the second quarter through higher production and continued strong operating margins. Generated more than $400 million of free cash flow year-to-date in 2026 despite investing over $325 million of sustaining capital in the business over this period. This has resulted in record trailing twelve month free cash flow generation of $631.0 million.
• Achieved quarterly adjusted EBITDA1 of $413.4 million in the third quarter of 2026, resulting in record trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA1 of $1,542.4 million.
• Recorded net debt1 of negative $0.1 million as at September 30, 2026, positioning the Company well to reinvest in high-return growth capital projects across the business, including the recently announced final investment decision ("FID") to proceed with the development and construction of Copper World.
• Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio1 was 0.0x in the third quarter of 2026, significantly improved from 0.4x in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a result of the initial proceeds received from Mitsubishi Corporation ("Mitsubishi") on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction in January 2026 along with strong cash flows from operations.
• Consistent with Hudbay's prudent balance sheet management and balanced capital allocation framework, Hudbay repaid $22.0 million of its outstanding $272 million draw on its revolving credit facilities, in the third quarter of 2026.
• As announced with the Copper World FID in October, Hudbay proactively amended and extended its existing revolving credit facilities. Total capacity under the facilities was upsized from $450 million to $700 million and the maturity date of the facilities was extended by two years to November 2030. The amended credit agreements include an improved pricing grid and greater financial flexibility that reflects Hudbay's robust cash flow, strong balance sheet position, and its recently upgraded credit rating. After adjusting for the $250 million increase in size of the credit facilities, Hudbay's proforma liquidity as of September 30, 2026 is approximately $1.2 billion.
Advancing Brownfield and Greenfield Investments to Drive Strong Returns and Significant Production Growth
• Formally approved, along with Mitsubishi, the FID to proceed with the construction and development of Copper World as the next major copper mine in the U.S. with first production targeted for the second half of 2029. The FID is supported by robust economic returns with low capital intensity outlined in the Copper World definitive feasibility study and related pre-feasibility studies (collectively, the "DFS") which delivers annual copper production of 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years, an 11% increase when compared to 92,000 tonnes in Hudbay's 2023 pre-feasibility study for Copper World ("2023 PFS").
• The base case for Copper World contemplates a 15-year mine life utilizing mineral reserves and requires only state and local permits ("Base Case") and expands the concentrator in year five to enable a 43% increase in average annual copper production to 120,000 tonnes in years six to 10 compared to 84,000 tonnes over the first five years. The Base Case generates an after-tax net present value (8%) of $1.2 billion and internal rate of return of 17% at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, which increases to $2.3 billion and 22%, respectively, at a copper price of $6.00 per pound.
• The extension case for Copper World contemplates a 37-year mine life utilizing only measured and indicated mineral resources and expands mining activities onto federal lands in year 10, subject to obtaining federal permits ("Extension Case"), maintaining annual copper production of 117,000 tonnes from years 11 to 20. The Extension Case generates an after-tax net present value (8%) of $2.5 billion and internal rate of return of 19% at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, increasing to $4.0 billion and 24%, respectively, at a copper price of $6.00 per pound.
• As a result of Hudbay's capital allocation strategy and prudent Copper World funding plan, the levered internal rate of return to Hudbay increases to 32% at $5.00 per pound of copper long-term in the Base Case and to 44% at $6.00 per pound of copper in the Extension Case.
• Enhanced the gold production profile at Snow Lake and extended reserve mine life to 18 years with updated life of mine plan released in September. Total life-of-mine gold production increased by 60% and reserve mine life extended by an additional two years to 2043, which together with the four-year extension in March 2026 represents a total of six years added to the reserve mine life.
• Updated five-year average3 annual gold production of 185,000 ounces reflects continued strong mill throughput rates at New Britannia and higher gold recoveries at Stall, representing a 37% increase in total gold production from an additional 250,000 ounces produced over the same five-year period in the Snow Lake 2021 technical report.
3
• Snow Lake updated mineral reserve estimates increased contained gold to 2.0 million ounces, and the updated mine plan represents a conservative view based on Hudbay's historical high resource-to-reserve conversion rate of 90%4 and ongoing exploration activities. There remains 1.5 million ounces of gold contained in inferred mineral resource estimates.
• Implementing mill enhancements at Constancia to drive further increases in mill throughput and copper recoveries. The completion of the installation of a third rougher line late in the third quarter is expected to drive higher copper recoveries starting in the fourth quarter. The installation of two pebble crushers is nearing completion with commissioning expected in November, resulting in increased processing capacity at the Constancia mill.
• Advancing the development of infrastructure at the New Ingerbelle extension project in British Columbia and de-risking the path to first production in late 2028. New Ingerbelle is expected to enhance the copper and gold production profile and secure a longer mine life at Copper Mountain.
• Advancing the recently acquired Cactus project in Arizona by initiating pre-feasibility study ("PFS") activities, including multiple trade-off studies, with completion expected in the second half of 2027.
• Continuing to derisk the long-term Mason project in Nevada through PFS and other site activities. The Mason PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
Positive Exploration Results Across the Business
• Recent exploration drilling in Peru intersected a potential new high-grade feeder system at Constancia in multiple drill holes, with highlights including 245 metres of 0.43% copper and 0.03% molybdenum, indicating high-grade expansion potential beneath and adjacent to the existing reserve and resource envelope. Follow up drilling is underway.
• Continuing to execute an extensive exploration program in Snow Lake from recently developed underground exploration drifts at Lalor and 1901 to enable infill drilling and testing of mineralized extensions, while also testing identified high-priority targets at the former producing New Britannia gold mine currently on care and maintenance (the "Britannia Gold Project"). Regional geophysics, mapping, structural modeling and data compilations underway to support target definition for new anchor deposits.
• Completing a targeted drilling program at New Ingerbelle focused on upgrading existing inferred resources to reserves to further optimize and extend the mine life at Copper Mountain. Results are expected to be incorporated in Hudbay's annual reserve and resource update in March 2027.
Summary of Third Quarter Results
Hudbay's diversified asset portfolio delivered consolidated copper production of 30,152 tonnes and consolidated gold production of 69,513 ounces in the third quarter of 2026, positioning the Company well to meet full-year 2026 consolidated production guidance. Consolidated copper production was higher than the second quarter of 2026 as a result of record high mill throughput in Peru and higher grades offsetting lower mill throughput in British Columbia. Consolidated gold production was higher than in the second quarter of 2026 primarily due to increased throughput and grades in Manitoba. Consolidated silver production of 897,587 ounces was higher than the second quarter of 2026 primarily driven by increased mill throughput and higher grades, while zinc production of 3,691 tonnes in the third quarter of 2026 decreased compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting lower zinc grades at the Manitoba operations.
Cash generated from operating activities was $214.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting a decrease of $82.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2026 and an increase of $101.4 million compared to the same period in 2025. The sequential decrease was primarily driven by unfavourable changes in non-cash working capital, whereas the year-over-year increase was supported by higher realized metal prices and higher sales volumes following full operational recovery in Manitoba after the 2025 wildfires and the timing of concentrate shipments. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $313.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, an increase of $103.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting higher realized copper prices and increased sales volumes.
Adjusted EBITDA1 was $413.4 million in the third quarter of 2026, a 29% increase compared to $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher realized copper prices and higher copper, gold and silver sales volumes. Third quarter adjusted EBITDA1 increased by 190% compared to $142.6 million in the third quarter of 2025 as a result of higher realized metal prices and higher copper, gold, and silver sales volumes.
Net earnings attributable to owners was $149.5 million, or $0.34 per share, in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $137.4 million, or $0.34 per share, in the second quarter of 2026. The strength in aggregate earnings resulted from the aforementioned high revenue due to higher sales volumes of all metals, and cost control resilience in the face of higher diesel prices.
4
Adjusted net earnings attributable to owners1 and adjusted net earnings per share attributable to owners1 in the third quarter of 2026 were $149.5 million and $0.34 per share, respectively, after adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis including $13.4 million in evaluation expenses, a $5.4 million mark-to-market revaluation net loss on various financial instruments, share-based compensation and offsetting mark-to-market gains on investments, a non-cash $11.8 million gain in re-evaluation adjustment on environmental provisions, among other items. This compares to adjusted net earnings attributable to owners1 and net earnings per share attributable to owners1 of $113.5 million and $0.28 per share, respectively, in the second quarter of 2026. The increase is a result of higher realized metal prices for copper and zinc and the aforementioned higher sales volumes.
Consolidated cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $(0.19) per pound of copper, compared to $(0.40) per pound in the second quarter of 2026. The increase from the second quarter of 2026 was in line with the expected cost cadence and is the result of lower by-product credits and slightly higher mine operating costs. When compared to the third quarter of 2025, consolidated cash cost1, net of by-product credits1 decreased by $0.61 per pound of copper as a result of higher copper production and higher by-product credits.
Consolidated sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $1.61 per pound of copper, compared to $1.39 per pound in the second quarter of 2026. This increase was primarily due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash cost noted above. When compared to the third quarter of 2025, consolidated sustaining cash cost1, net of by-production credits decreased by $0.48 per pound of copper due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash cost noted above, partially offset by higher planned sustaining capital spending across the operations.
Consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $2.25 per pound of copper, higher than the second quarter of 2026 due to the same reasons noted above.
As at September 30, 2026, total liquidity2 was $964.3 million, including $788.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, which excludes $50.1 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that are classified as restricted cash, and undrawn availability of $175.6 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities (prior to giving effect to the $250 million increase in size to the credit facilities in November 2026). Cash and cash equivalents reflect $45.0 million in net purchases of investments and $22.0 million in debt repayments during the third quarter of 2026. Net debt1 at the end of the third quarter was negative $0.1 million. Hudbay expects that its current liquidity, together with cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs for the next 12 months. With the successful execution of its disciplined capital allocation strategy, attracting Mitsubishi as a long-term strategic joint venture partner and a prudent project funding plan, Hudbay's Copper World capital contributions are expected to be approximately $500 million, representing less than 25% of the initial growth capital, with capital contributions not expected to be required until 2028.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Approved Copper World Project Construction; Advancing Next Major U.S. Copper Mine Towards First Production in 2029
Hudbay and Mitsubishi have formally approved the FID to proceed with the construction and development of Copper World as the next major copper mine in the U.S. with first production targeted for the second half of 2029. Hudbay filed the National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") technical report in support of the DFS in October 2026, concurrently with the Copper World FID.
Copper World will be one of the largest open-pit copper mines in the United States. It is anticipated to increase Hudbay's consolidated annual copper production to approximately 250,000 tonnes, doubling current production levels together with other brownfield growth projects underway. The DFS outlines annual copper production of 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years, an 11% increase when compared to 92,000 tonnes in Hudbay's 2023 PFS. Copper World is expected to deliver average annual EBITDA1 of $661 million over the first 10 years in the Base Case and $735 million over the next 10 years in the Extension Case at a copper price of $5.00 per pound. Using a copper price of $6.00 per pound, Copper World's annual EBITDA over these periods increases to $859 million and $963 million in the Base Case and Extension Case, respectively, representing an 80% to 90% increase in Hudbay's consolidated annual EBITDA as compared to 2025.
The Base Case presented in the DFS is used to support the mineral reserve estimates of 390 million tonnes with strong copper grades of 0.47% over a 15 year mine plan. Total mill feed tonnage in the Base Case is comparable to the 2023 PFS. The Base Case is limited to the exterior boundary of Copper World's private landholdings requiring only state and local permits. All major permits have been obtained for construction and initial operations.
• Base Case after-tax net present value (8%) is $1.2 billion with an internal rate of return of 17% and an initial payback period of 5.4 years at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound. At a copper price of $6.00 per pound, the after-tax net present value (8%) increases to $2.3 billion and the internal rate of return increases to 22%.
• Base Case average annual copper production is 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years at average cash costs2 and sustaining cash costs2 of $1.65 and $2.22 per pound of copper, respectively.
• Base Case further optimizes the 2023 PFS mine plan with an in-pit crushing and conveying system in year four and an expansion of the concentrator from 60,000 tons per day to 90,000 tons per day in year five.
• Concentrator expansion enables a 43% increase in average annual copper production to 120,000 tonnes in years six to 10 compared to 84,000 tonnes over the first five years.
• Base Case annual average EBITDA is $566 million over the mine life at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, increasing to $742 million at a long-term copper price of $6.00 per pound.
The Extension Case reflects a phased development approach that minimizes initial waste rock movement while operations remain constrained to the existing exterior boundary over the first 10 years and then expand beyond Copper World's private property and onto its unpatented lode and mill site claims starting in year 10 to achieve and sustain a higher total material movement capacity. The Extension Case contemplates a 37-year mine life utilizing only measured and indicated mineral resources totalling 1,048 million tonnes and requires federal permits by year 10 of operations.
• Extension Case after-tax net present value (8%) is $2.5 billion with an internal rate of return of 19% and an initial payback period of 5.4 years at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound. At a copper price of $6.00 per pound, the after-tax net present value (8%) increases to $4.0 billion and the internal rate of return increases to 24%.
• Extension Case average annual copper production over the first 10 years is similar to the Base Case with 101,000 tonnes and increases to 117,000 tonnes over the period from year 11 to 20. Average cash costs2 and sustaining cash costs2 over the 10-year period from year 11 to 20 are expected to be $1.76 and $2.20 per pound of copper, respectively.
• Extension Case average annual EBITDA is $522 million over the mine life and $735 million over the period from year 11 to 20 at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound.
Copper World is one of the lowest capital intensity copper projects, maintaining an attractive capital intensity of approximately $22,600 per annual copper tonne using average production in years five to twelve, including the expansion growth capital in years three and four. With initial growth capital of $2.07 billion3 ($1.84 billion net of precious metals stream deposit), which includes approximately $200 million related to changes in project scope since the 2023 PFS, Hudbay has put in place prudent funding and a low leverage financing plan. The sources of capital include Mitsubishi's $600 million initial joint venture equity investment and Wheaton Precious Metals Corp.'s $230 million deposit for the existing precious metals stream, followed by approximately $650 million in anticipated project-level debt financing, representing less than 30% leverage. This defers the Hudbay's first pro-rata equity capital contribution to 2028.

With the prudent funding structure, the levered internal rate of return to Hudbay increases to 32% at $5.00 per pound of copper long-term in the Base Case and to 44% at $6.00 per pound of copper in the Extension Case. Copper World's FID enables Hudbay to deliver its growth initiatives and maximize long-term risk-adjusted returns, while maintaining strong financial discipline within Hudbay's holistic capital allocation framework.
Hudbay's 2026 growth capital spending guidance related to the Copper World joint venture includes approximately $135 million of expenditures before the FID. As previously disclosed with the sanctioning of Copper World, the Company now expects full year growth expenditures related to the Copper World joint venture to total $245 million in 2026, reflecting an increase of $110 million related to project construction and development costs in the fourth quarter of 2026, as previously disclosed with the FID announcement in October 2026.
Executing Staged U.S. Growth Investment Strategy to Unlock Copper Growth Pipeline
Hudbay continues to invest across its United States platform beyond Copper World through advancing PFS activities at both Cactus and Mason. These assets along with Copper World 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 Cactus project is a highly complementary copper growth asset in Arizona, with potential to generate significant operational efficiencies and regional synergies with Hudbay's staged development of Copper World and Cactus. After the completed acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. in the second quarter of 2026, Hudbay announced it expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of the year to advance an updated PFS, perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs. The updated Cactus PFS, including multiple trade-off studies, is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
The Mason project, in Nevada, is one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry deposits in North America and is viewed as a long-term future development asset as part of Hudbay's pipeline of high-quality copper growth opportunities. The Company continued to progress PFS activities at Mason during the quarter and expects to spend approximately $20 million in evaluation expenses at Mason in 2026, as announced previously. The Mason PFS is approximately 45% complete and is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
Enhanced Gold Production Profile at the Snow Lake Operations
Hudbay released an updated Snow Lake mine plan on September 28, 2026. The updated Snow Lake mine plan reflects a 37% increase in gold production over the next five years4 and a 60% increase in total gold production over the life-of-mine, based on current mineral reserves, compared to the prior 2021 Snow Lake technical report. The updated Snow Lake mine plan maintains average production of 185,000 ounces of gold over the next five years4 reflecting several optimization initiatives including higher mill throughput at New Britannia and higher gold recoveries at the Stall mill to better utilize the combined 6,300 tonnes per day of processing capacity.
The updated Snow Lake mine plan reflects a mining ramp up to approximately 2.0 million tonnes per year and maintains this profile over the next decade. This reflects Lalor operating at 4,000 to 4,500 tonnes per day, supplemented by contributions from the 1901 deposit and several additional satellites to supplement Lalor mill feed and increase total ore mined to approximately 5,000 tonnes per day.
Snow Lake's proven and probable reserve mine life has been extended by an additional two years to 2043, which together with the four-year extension announced in March 2026 represents a total of six years added to the reserve mine life. Current mineral reserve estimates in Snow Lake as of September 1, 2026 total 27.0 million tonnes with approximately 2.0 million ounces of gold. This represents an increase in mineral reserves of 7.5 million tonnes, unlocking 124,000 ounces of additional gold. Hudbay filed a technical report pursuant to NI 43-101 in support of the updated mine plan for Snow Lake on November 6, 2026.
The increase in reserves and extension of mine life is due to resource conversion at Lalor and 1901, higher reserves at the WIM and 3 Zone satellite deposits, and the first reserve estimates for the Talbot and Rail satellite deposits following the completion of infill and geotechnical drilling. Hudbay expects to continue to achieve high rates of resource to reserve conversion and further optimize the mine plan.
The Snow Lake mine plan has been optimized for higher mill throughput rates at New Britannia maximizing gold production and cash flows. The New Britannia mill currently operates at more than 2,000 tonnes per day, continuing to exceed nameplate design of 1,500 tonnes per day, and the updated mine plan reflects New Britannia ramping up to 2,300 tonnes per day starting in 2027. The updated mine plan also reflects an additional recovery improvement project at Stall that aims to recover additional gold and silver through expansion of cyanide leaching and carbon adsorption infrastructure at New Britannia to accommodate material from Stall (the "Stall Hot Tails Leaching" project). Commissioning of Stall Hot Tails Leaching project is expected in early 2028 and it is anticipated to increase overall gold and silver recoveries.

Manitoba Exploration Strategy to Further Optimize the Mine Plan and Discover a New Anchor Deposit
Hudbay continues to advance many brownfield expansion and exploration opportunities in Snow Lake to further optimize the mine plan to maintain current annual gold production levels beyond 2030, extend mine life beyond 2043 and explore for new anchor deposits to provide significant gold production growth beyond the 180,000-ounce annual target. This includes executing an extensive exploration program in Snow Lake and more broadly across its highly prospective land package extending over 400,000 hectares across the Flin Flon, Snow Lake greenstone belt.
1) Conversion of Large Inferred Resources to Further Increase Production and Extend Mine Life - Continued infill drilling of existing resource base at Lalor and known satellites will continue to support mine plan optimization.
• Potential to convert the 1.5 million ounces of gold in inferred resources to reserves through infill drilling.
• Hudbay has historically converted approximately 90% of inferred resources to reserves at the Lalor deposit over the past five years5.
2) Extension of the Current Anchor Deposit at Lalor - Maximize value from existing infrastructure through mine life extension at the highest margin deposits, while extending the window of opportunity to discover a new anchor deposit.
• Lalor and 1901 continue to show extensions of high-grade, stacked lenses, and remain open down plunge.
• Mine life extensions at the current anchor will further increase cash flows and defer growth capital associated with the development of satellite deposits.
3) Discovery of a New Anchor Deposit - Meaningfully add to current production levels and significantly extend mine life through the discovery of the next major anchor deposit in the region.
• The Britannia Gold Project provides the opportunity to re-develop an underexplored, past-producing deposit with the potential to become a new anchor in the Snow Lake camp.
• Regional exploration on the large and highly prospective land package, including exploration for both volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) and orogenic gold deposits.
In the third quarter of 2026, advancement of underground exploration drifts at both Lalor and 1901 established new drilling platforms that will enable additional infill drilling of inferred resources and testing for extensions along mineralized trends in the high-grade copper-gold zones. At the Britannia Gold Project, digitization and remodeling of decades of historical data has identified several high-priority target areas laterally and down-plunge from known mineralization. Drilling from surface is currently underway and progressing in parallel to the assessment of options to restore historical underground access from the New Britannia shaft infrastructure. Regional airborne geophysics, mapping, structural modeling and data compilations progressed in the third quarter in both the Flin Flon and Snow Lake areas to support target definition for new anchor deposits.
Constancia Drilling Campaign Intersects Potential High-Grade Copper-Molybdenum Feeder System
Hudbay's ongoing 2026 drilling exploration program at the Constancia operations in southern Peru has demonstrated high-grade expansion potential beneath and adjacent to the existing reserve and resource envelope, within the Company's existing area of operations.
Two deep diamond drill holes, successfully intersected lateral and down-dip extensions of the skarn envelopes and mineralized breccia zones below and adjacent to the Constancia pit. Drill holes CO-26-003 and CO-26-005 intersected significant widths of mineralized breccia extending beyond the limits of the current resource at grades higher than current reserve grades. A re-assessment of the localized structural and geological controls on mineralization is underway to support target definition for follow up drilling. The initial results indicate meaningful width and grade, while showing potential for orebody extensions at depth.
Highlights of the breccia drill hole intercepts are as follows:
• Hole CO-26-003 intersected 245 metres at 0.43% copper and, 0.03% molybdenum, including 124 metres at 0.55% copper and 0.05% molybdenum from 478 metres.
• Hole CO-26-005 intersected 302 metres at 0.36% copper and 0.02% molybdenum from 396 metres including 64 metres at 0.50% copper and 0.04% molybdenum from 618 metres.
Hudbay intends to continue ongoing geological and geochemical vectoring investigations to confirm the geometry and structural controls of this interpreted feeder system, as well as continue the exploration drilling to determine the potential scale and economic potential of mineralization both down-plunge and at depth. This high-grade system has the potential to enhance Constancia's long-term production profile.

New Ingerbelle Infill and Expansion Drilling Nearing Completion
Hudbay is nearing completion of a 66,000-metre drill program aimed at converting inferred resources to measured and indicated categories at the New Ingerbelle deposit as well as testing possible extensions beyond the limits of the current mineral resource, the results of which are expected to be reflected in Hudbay's annual mineral reserves and resources update in March 2027. Additional geotechnical drilling and geometallurgical sampling are underway to support mine plan optimization and metallurgical recovery modeling.
Proactive Two-Year Extension and Upsize of Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities
In November 2026, Hudbay completed the amendments to its senior secured revolving credit facilities to improve balance sheet resilience with a proactive two-year extension and upsize of the facilities. Under the amended credit agreements, the size of the credit facilities has been increased from the existing $450 million to $700 million, and the term has been extended to November 2030, providing additional financial flexibility to manage the maturity of Hudbay's 2029 senior unsecured notes and develop the Copper World project. The amended credit agreement includes an improved pricing grid and greater financial flexibility that reflects Hudbay's enhanced financial position and features an opportunity to increase the facilities by an additional $150 million at Hudbay's discretion during the four-year tenor. After adjusting for the $250 million increase in size of the credit facilities, Hudbay's proforma liquidity as of September 30, 2026 is approximately $1.2 billion.
Industry Recognition of Hudbay's Growth Success
Hudbay has recently received multiple recognitions and inclusions on top growing company lists.

Overview
The Peru operations continued to demonstrate steady operating performance during the third quarter of 2026, with production and costs well-positioned to achieve the annual guidance ranges. Constancia achieved record quarterly total material moved at the mine and record quarterly ore milled during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting the benefits from efforts to improve productivity and further optimize the operations.
The Company completed the installation of a third rougher line in September, which resulted in immediate improvements in copper recoveries. Hudbay continues to advance the installation of pebble crushers at Constancia to increase mill throughput rates starting in the fourth quarter of 2026, which will allow the mine to continue to deliver steady annual copper production despite lower grades following the depletion of Pampacancha at the end of 2025.
As part of the Company's continuous improvement efforts, Hudbay obtained updated permits in 2026 to enable additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production. 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. The corresponding operating permit for this expansion is expected to follow in due course. In March 2026, Hudbay received the previous operating permit to increase mill throughput capacity to 31 million tonnes from 29.9 million tonnes per annum. The Peru Ministry of Energy and Mines' regulatory framework provides operational flexibility to handle daily increases of up to 10% above permitted levels.
Mining Activities
Total material moved during the third quarter of 2026 was 25.0 million tonnes, representing a 51% increase compared to the same period in 2025. This robust performance was driven by steady mining operations in the Constancia pit, where truck fleet utilization reached 77%, up significantly from 59% in the prior year period when mining in Constancia was restricted to approximately 21 days due to regional social unrest. Exclusive focus on mining in one pit during the third quarter of 2026 unlocked substantial operational efficiencies, including shorter hauling distances and improved productivity resulting from haul route optimizations. These optimizations resulted in achieving a new monthly record for total volume of material moved in July 2026.
15
Total ore mined during the quarter increased by 16% to 12.7 million tonnes, compared to the second quarter of 2026, supported by active mining across three exposed ore phases and positive reconciliation yielding higher tonnage than predicted by the geological model.
Year-to-date total material moved was 26% higher than the same period in 2025, while year-to-date ore mined increased by 61% 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
Constancia achieved record mill throughput levels of approximately 91,300 tonnes per day in the third quarter of 2026, representing a 7% increase compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher plant availability and lower ore hardness, as well as the benefits of increased mill processing capacity supported by the recently approved permit amendment. Milled copper grades and gold grades remained consistent with the second quarter of 2026. Compared to the third quarter of 2025, milled copper grades decreased slightly and gold grades declined by 75% primarily due to mining exclusively within the Constancia pit, compared to a two-pit operation with mining in the higher-grade Pampacancha satellite pit in the prior year period. Metal recoveries remained in line with expectations.
Year-to-date ore milled was higher than the comparable period in 2025, largely driven by plant mechanical availability. Year-to-date milled copper and gold grades were lower than the same period in 2025 for the same reasons noted above. Copper recoveries during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 averaged 82%, a 3% decline compared to the same year-to-date period in 2025, driven by lower head grades and a higher proportion of stockpile ore feed. Gold and silver recoveries during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were 52% and 62%, respectively, representing a decrease compared to the same year-to-date period in 2025 of 20% and 4%, respectively, but remained in line with Hudbay's metallurgical models.
Production and Sales Performance
During the third quarter of 2026, the Peru operations produced 20,572 tonnes of copper, 5,267 ounces of gold, 577,231 ounces of silver and 301 tonnes of molybdenum. Production of copper, silver and molybdenum was slightly higher compared to the second quarter of 2026, reflecting higher mill throughput as a result of efficiency improvements and the impacts of the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the second quarter of 2026. Production of gold was comparable to the second quarter of 2026. Compared to the same period in 2025, production of copper was higher due to the increase in tonnes milled. As expected, gold production decreased primarily as a result of lower mill head grades and recoveries associated with mining exclusively in the Constancia pit following the planned depletion of Pampacancha at the end of 2025.
Year-to-date production of copper and gold during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 60,591 tonnes and 19,319 ounces, respectively, representing a 1% increase in copper production and a 54% decrease in gold production compared to the same period in 2025. The decreased gold production is primarily due to lower recoveries that resulted from processing lower planned head grades as more material was mined from the Constancia pit and reclaimed from stockpiles when compared to the same period last year, which benefited from higher grade Pampacancha ore feed. The slightly increased copper production compared to the same period of 2025 is a result of higher throughput partially offset by lower grades.
Quantities of metal sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were in line with the production variances noted above. Copper sales volumes during the third quarter reached 21,382 tonnes, representing a 36% increase compared to the second quarter of 2026. Sales performance was enhanced by the realization of copper concentrate sales that were deferred from late June into early July 2026, due to temporary port closures caused by ocean swells.

Cost Performance
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating cost1 in the third quarter of 2026 was $13.60 per tonne, which was 4% higher than the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher fuel price and increased fuel consumption due to additional material moved, and higher plant consumable costs to support higher ore throughput. These factors were partially offset by the benefit of additional ore milled, and lower power costs related to a new power purchase agreement that came into effect on January 1, 2026.
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating cost in the third quarter of 2026 decreased by 3% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher ore tonnage milled and reduced mill maintenance costs following the completion of the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown in the second quarter. This efficiency gain was partially offset by higher social spending during the quarter.
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $13.09 per tonne, representing a 5% increase compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher diesel prices partially offset by additional tonnes of ore milled and lower power costs.
Cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $2.23 per pound of copper, a 72% increase compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was mainly due to lower by-product credits from gold, higher fuel prices and fuel consumption from increased material moved, higher profit sharing, and higher plant consumables due to increased production. This was partially offset by higher copper production, and lower power costs. Cash cost1 net of by-product credits increased by 34% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower silver and gold by-product credits, and higher profit sharing. This was partially offset by lower plant maintenance cost following the completion of the semi-annual mill shutdown in the second quarter of 2026.
Year-to-date 2026 cash cost1, net of by-product credits were $1.53 per pound of copper, an increase from $1.29 in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by lower gold by-product credits, higher diesel prices, higher profit sharing, and increased grinding media consumption from higher production volumes. This was partially offset by lower treatment and refining charges and lower power costs.
Sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $3.23 per pound of copper, an increase of 53% compared to the same period in 2025 as a result of the same impacts as cash cost above as well as higher hauling costs related to additional material sent to the tailings management facility ("TMF"). During the third quarter of 2026, sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, per pound of copper increased by 19% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to the same reasons affecting cash costs above, as well as higher hauling costs related to additional material sent to the TMF.
On a year-to-date basis, sustaining cash cost1, net of by-products credits, was $2.45 per pound of copper, a 10% increase when compared to the same period in 2025 due to the same reasons as cash cost above.

Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Peru with gold production expected to exceed the top end of the guidance range. Year-to-date cash cost continued to outperform 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 delivered strong operating performance in the third quarter of 2026, driven by the achievement of key operational performance targets and the benefits from strategic initiatives implemented earlier in the year, positioning the business to achieve full-year guidance metrics while advancing key growth and infrastructure projects.
Performance at the Lalor mine significantly improved during the third quarter, with improved equipment utilization driving efficiencies in underground development, and higher gold and copper head grades contributing to increased production compared to the second quarter of 2026.
To address prior labour availability constraints and accelerate development at the 1901 deposit, Hudbay embedded an experienced mining contractor at 1901, allowing internal skilled labour to be redeployed toward critical development areas at Lalor. In tandem, Hudbay expanded its internal capacity by onboarding over 150 new employees thus far in 2026, who are undergoing upskilling to support long-term self-sufficiency. Underground improvement efforts also advanced during the third quarter, including operational testing of a roadheader continuous mining unit at Lalor to understand lateral development applications.
Community workforce programs continued to build momentum. Hudbay's Mining Fundamentals Training program, delivered in partnership with the Northern Manitoba Sector Council and University College of the North, launched its fifth cohort during the third quarter of 2026, including participants from local Indigenous communities. Participants who complete the program are given opportunities for full-time employment with Hudbay.
The New Britannia mill achieved a new quarterly mill throughput record during the third quarter of 2026, and Hudbay initiated early works on the Stall Hot Tails Leaching project to unlock additional gold recovery from material processed at the Stall mill through leaching at New Britannia. Hudbay has also initiated early evaluation work on processing legacy tailings and mineralized piles to utilize excess mill capacity.
Hudbay released an updated mine plan for its Snow Lake operations in September 2026, as further detailed in the Recent Developments section above. The updated mine plan enhanced the gold production profile in Snow Lake, extended reserve mine life to 18 years and identified further growth opportunities from continued resource conversion and regional exploration.
Mining Activities
Total ore mined in Manitoba in the third quarter of 2026 increased compared to the third quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2026. The increase compared to the third quarter of 2025 reflects a recovery from the impacts of the temporary wildfire evacuation orders in 2025, while the increase compared to the second quarter of 2026 was driven by improved equipment utilization and haulage efficiencies. While gold grades decreased by 6% compared to the same period in 2025, due to planned mine sequencing, the gold grades increased by 16% compared to the second quarter of 2026 as production prioritized gold-focused mining areas.
The Lalor mine hoisted an average of approximately 4,200 tonnes of ore per day during the third quarter of 2026, strategically prioritizing gold feed. Development activity at the 1901 deposit focused on exploration and infill drilling, orebody access, and critical infrastructure, with late 2027 remaining the targeted timeline for full production.
Year-to-date ore mined was 28% higher than the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting operational stability after the 2025 temporary wildfire evacuation orders and ongoing improvements in ore haulage, equipment utilization, and operating efficiencies. Year-to-date copper grades increased 6%, while gold, zinc, and silver grades mined were lower by 10%, 15%, and 9%, respectively, in line with mine plans.
Milling Activities
New Britannia achieved a new quarterly mill throughput record, averaging approximately 2,250 tonnes per day in the third quarter of 2026, aligning with gold ore output from Lalor and achieving new record gold recoveries of approximately 92% during the quarter.
Stall mill demonstrated higher quarterly throughput compared to the third quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2026, matching Lalor base metal production, while achieving new record gold recoveries of 74% as a result of recovery focused initiatives.
Production and Sales Performance
The Manitoba operations produced 57,261 ounces of gold, 3,012 tonnes of copper, 3,691 tonnes of zinc and 268,346 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Production across all metals increased compared to the third quarter of 2025, driven primarily by higher mill throughput following the temporary wildfire evacuation orders in the prior year period. Production of gold, copper and silver increased compared to the second quarter of 2026 as a result of higher mill throughput and improved gold feed grades, while zinc production decreased due to lower zinc feed grades.
22
Year-to-date production across all metals exceeded the comparative 2025 period. The increase reflects higher overall mill throughput compared to the wildfire impacted period in 2025 and higher copper head grades, partially offset by lower gold, zinc, and silver head grades.
Third quarter sales volumes reflected typical inventory movement alongside higher production. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, quantities across all metals aligned with production trends.

Cost Performance
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs were C$282 per tonne in the third quarter of 2026. Combined unit costs increased compared to the third quarter of 2025 due to full operational activity following prior year wildfire impacts, partially offset by higher milled tonnage. Combined unit costs improved from the second quarter of 2026 as higher ore throughput offset elevated variable site expenses, including operational testing of the continuous miner unit at Lalor.
Cash cost4, net of by-product credits, was $403 per ounce of gold in the third quarter of 2026. This represents a 6% increase compared to the same period in 2025, primarily attributed to higher operating expenses and employee profit sharing, which were largely offset by increased gold production and higher by-product credits. Cash cost decreased by 48% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher gold production and higher by-product credits driven by higher metal prices and volumes, which were partially offset by higher mining and G&A costs.
Sustaining cash cost4, net of by-product credits, was $898 per ounce of gold in the third quarter of 2026, higher than the same period in 2025 and lower than the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting the same factors affecting cash costs along with higher sustaining capital. As reflected in the Company's 2026 annual guidance, sustaining capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2025, in part due to one-time 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 nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $508 per ounce of gold. These costs were 4% higher compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to higher operating expenses following prior year wildfire evacuation impacts, partially offset by higher gold production and higher by-product credits from metal pricing and volumes. Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $1,004 per ounce of gold, an increase of 28% 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.

Overview
Hudbay continued to advance its multi-year optimization plan at Copper Mountain, achieving significant milestones in mining productivity, operational performance, and project execution in the third quarter of 2026. In parallel, Hudbay has continued to focus on improving safety and environmental management and received ISO 14001 and 45001 certifications at Copper Mountain during the third quarter of 2026.
Copper Mountain achieved mill throughput of approximately 43,500 tonnes per day in September, reflecting successive monthly mill throughput increases after the completion of mill maintenance at the primary SAG mill in July, and Hudbay is on track to achieve the targeted 50,000 tonnes per day by the end of the year. The third quarter represented the first quarter of positive free cash flow at Copper Mountain since its acquisition by Hudbay, demonstrating the benefits from continued operating efficiencies, recent mill improvement initiatives and ongoing execution of the accelerated stripping program.
Following the June groundbreaking, the New Ingerbelle project continued to advance infrastructure development in the third quarter of 2026, with construction of key infrastructure connecting the expansion on the west side of the Similkameen river to existing operations on the east side progressing on schedule. Key milestones achieved during the quarter included completion of the west access road and establishment of a temporary construction bridge to facilitate the construction of the permanent bridge. In parallel, a targeted resource expansion and infill drilling program continued and remains on track for completion in the fourth quarter. Hudbay also continued to advance construction of the east haul road, which was 38% complete at the end of the quarter. The New Ingerbelle expansion is expected to support continuous operations beyond 2040 and provide access to higher grade ore at approximately one third of the strip ratio compare to recent historical mining areas.
Consistent with the refreshed participation agreements ratified earlier in the year with the Upper Similkameen Indian Band (USIB) and the Lower Similkameen Indian Band (LSIB), the joint committees for the New Ingerbelle project are now fully operational and functioning as intended. With respect to the application for judicial review filed by the LSIB in March 2026 concerning the New Ingerbelle permit amendment, Hudbay remains confident in the regulatory process and expects the court to uphold the decision at a hearing anticipated in the first quarter of 2027. Hudbay continues to engage constructively with the LSIB through established Participation Agreement mechanisms.
Mining Activities
Total material movement at Copper Mountain was approximately 26.9 million tonnes (approximately 292.300 tonnes per day) in the third quarter of 2026, representing a 26% increase compared to the third quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by ongoing operational improvement initiatives and mobile fleet additions, as well as waste movement associated with the New Ingerbelle east haul road development, which totaled 5.6 million tonnes during the quarter. Total material movement decreased by 11% compared to the second quarter of 2026 due to fleet availability constraints and reduced productivity in the active mining areas. Waste movement associated with the New Ingerbelle east haul road development totaled 5.6 million tonnes during the third quarter of 2026.
Total ore mined at Copper Mountain in the third quarter of 2026 was 5.1 million tonnes, an increase of 182% and 56% compared to the third quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026, respectively. The increases were driven by favourable ore release timing from the north pit, which will be depleted by the end of the year. The strip ratio in the third quarter was 2.97, significantly lower than 8.84 in the third quarter of 2025 and 6.22 in the second quarter of 2026, due to increased ore availability and the shift of waste mining capacity to New Ingerbelle east haul road development.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, total ore mined was 62% higher than the same period in 2025, reflecting operational efficiency gains and improved ore availability compared to 2025 when activity was weighted heavily toward waste stripping and stockpile rehandling.
Milling Activities
The scheduled replacement of the primary semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill feed end head was completed in July 2026, resolving operational constraints stemming from localized erosion in late 2025. Comprehensive preventative maintenance was executed concurrently, enabling a smooth, progressive ramp-up as planned in the third quarter.
The mill processed 3.1 million tonnes of ore during the third quarter of 2026, consistent with the same period in 2025 and 15% lower than the second quarter of 2026, reflecting 33 days of planned maintenance downtime for the primary SAG mill feed end head replacement. Higher hourly operating throughput following the restart partially offset the planned outage. Mill throughput continues to ramp up towards the targeted 50,000 tonnes per operating day by the end of the year, supported by the secondary SAG mill availability and unconstrained primary SAG mill operation.
Milled copper head grades averaged 0.27% in the third quarter of 2026, representing increases of 23% and 17% compared to the third quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026, respectively due to higher grade ore released from active mining faces. Copper recoveries slightly increased to approximately 80% in the third quarter, representing an improvement compared to both the third quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026. Gold recovery was 3% higher than third quarter of 2025 but lower than the second quarter of 2026, while circuit optimization efforts continue to focus on managing flotation response at coarser grind sizes.
26
Milled copper grades during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 averaged 18% lower than the same period in 2025 as the prior year period benefited from higher grade ore contributions from the main pit. Year-to-date 2026 copper and gold recoveries were 79% and 63%, respectively, in line with the comparable period in 2025.
Production and Sales Performance
The British Columbia operations produced 6,568 tonnes of copper, 6,985 ounces of gold and 52,010 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Copper, gold and silver production increased compared to the third quarter of 2025, as higher head grades and improved recoveries offset the impact of maintenance downtime on the primary SAG mill. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, copper and gold production increased for the same reasons mentioned above, while silver production decreased due to localized head grade variations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, production totaled 17,844 tonnes of copper, 17,780 ounces of gold and 166,230 ounces of silver. Year-to-date copper and silver production were lower than in the same period in 2025 due to lower head grades during the first half of the year, while gold production increased on higher average gold grades.
Sales volumes for all metals in the third quarter of 2026 were higher than the corresponding period in 2025 and the second quarter of 2026, primarily driven by production and higher grade profiles.
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%.

27

Cost Performance
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the third quarter of 2026 were C$34.20 per tonne milled, higher than the third quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2026. This unit cost increase was driven by lower capitalized stripping, higher fuel and mobile equipment maintenance costs, and additional maintenance expenses associated with the planned primary SAG mill shutdown. Year-to-date combined unit operation costs were C$28.16 per tonne milled compared to C$25.09 per tonne milled in the prior year period, driven by the same cost factors.
Cash cost1 net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $3.09 per pound of copper produced. Cash cost1 decreased by 4% compared to the second quarter of 2026 and the third quarter of 2025, benefiting from higher copper production, lower treatment and refining charges, and strong gold and silver by-product credits, which offset higher site operating costs. Higher copper production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026, resulting in full year cash cost expected to track toward the high end of the annual guidance range in British Columbia.
Sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, was $6.30 per pound of copper in the third quarter of 2026, lower than the third quarter of 2025 due to lower cash costs and reduced sustaining capital expenditures. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, sustaining cash cost1, net of by-product credits, was slightly higher due to higher royalty costs, partially offset by lower cash costs and reduced sustaining capital expenditures. Year-to-date cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, averaged $2.95 and $6.68 per pound, respectively. Variances with the same period last year were for largely the same factors affecting the quarterly variances, together with higher sustaining capital expenditures.

Revenue
Revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $765.9 million, $419.1 million higher than the same period in 2025, primarily due to stronger metal prices, lower treatment and refining charges and higher sales volume of all metals.
Revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $2,154.5 million, $676.4 million higher than in 2025, as a result of the same factors impacting the third quarter of 2026.
While a majority of revenues continue to be from copper, gold represented a significant portion of total revenues at 34% and 37% for the three months and nine months ended September 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 September 30, 2026 and 2025 and June 30, 2026 and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, are summarized below:

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 35 of this MD&A.
32

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 cost collar hedges during the first quarter of 2026 that cover approximately 35% of Copper Mountain's expected 2026 production.
As of September 30, 2026, Hudbay had the following non-QP hedges outstanding:
• Forward sales contracts for a total of 4.6 million pounds of copper production over the period of October 2026 to April 2027 at an average price of $6.03 per pound; and
• Zero-cost collar program for 9.3 million pounds of copper production over the period of October 2026 to April 2027 at an average floor price of $5.76 per pound and an average cap price of $6.36 per pound.

Total cost of sales for the third quarter of 2026 was $419.7 million, reflecting an increase of $138.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2025.
Peru cost of sales during the third quarter of 2026 increased by $79.2 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by a $32.3 million change in product inventory resulting from concentrate inventory build up in the prior year period following social blockades. Cost of sales was also impacted by higher depreciation and amortization, higher mining costs from elevated diesel prices and material movement, higher G&A from increased employee profit sharing, and higher freight charges. Milling costs increased as higher grinding ball consumption and throughput were partially offset by lower power costs under the power purchase agreement effective January 1, 2026. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, Peru cost of sales increased by $56.5 million, primarily driven by a $25.7 million change in product inventory from concentrate inventory build up in the prior quarter, higher depreciation and amortization, and increased mining, G&A, and freight expenses.
37
Manitoba cost of sales during the third quarter of 2026 increased by $49.6 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher mining and milling costs reflecting uninterrupted operational activities compared to the prior year period, which was impacted by temporary wildfire evacuation orders. The increase in mining costs was due to higher operational development and direct mining expenses driven by contract services, materials, and consumables, while milling costs increased due to fewer operational down days alongside higher labour, process reagents and contractor expenses. Additionally, G&A costs were higher due to increased employee profit sharing resulting from higher sales volumes and realized metal prices, as well as higher consulting fees. Depreciation and amortization increased by $4.4 million due to higher production volumes. Manitoba cost of sales during the third quarter of 2026 increased by $3.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily driven by higher mining costs from increased operational development and direct mining activities, higher milling costs, and higher G&A costs due to increased employee profit sharing, partially offset by a favourable change in product inventory.
British Columbia cost of sales during the third quarter of 2026 increased by $9.4 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher net mining costs due to lower capitalized stripping, higher milling expenses from the planned shutdown for the first SAG mill feed end head replacement, and increased freight and royalty charges from the refreshed first nation participation agreement. These cost increases were partially offset by a favourable inventory movement of $17.1 million driven by a significant stockpile build-up at the end of the quarter. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, British Columbia cost of sales decreased by $2.6 million, primarily driven by the continued build-up of stockpile inventory and lower depreciation expenses, partially offset by similar operational factors, including higher net mining and milling costs from shutdown timing, and lower strip ratios.
Total cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $1,171.3 million, an increase of $166.3 million compared to the same period in 2025. This increase was primarily driven by Manitoba due to full operational activities compared to the prior year period, which was impacted by temporary wildfire evacuation orders and higher profit sharing. Cost increases in Peru resulting from functioning at normal operating levels compared to the same period in 2025 which was impacted by a temporary operational shutdown during the third quarter of 2025 caused by social unrest and higher profit sharing. Cost increases in British Columbia resulting from the same operational and inventory 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 third quarter of 2026, other significant variances in expenses, compared to the same period in 2025, include the following:
- Impairment reversal gain decreased by $322.3 million as a result of the prior year period non-cash full impairment reversal on the carrying value of the Copper World project, following the announcement of the Copper World JV Transaction with Mitsubishi for a 30% non-controlling interest.
- Net finance (income) expenses increased by $23.6 million, primarily due to an increase in mark-to-market gains of $10.6 million from investments, a decrease of $1.9 million in interest expense on long-term debt benefitting from the retirement of the 2026 senior unsecured notes, a decrease in foreign exchange loss of $9.5 million from the revaluation of foreign currency monetary balances and an increase in interest income of $3.9 million, partially offset by an increase in loss from non-QP hedges of $5.9 million.
- Consideration received from previous sale of non-core project decreased by $14.0 million, reflecting additional contingent consideration received in the prior year period from a previously sold Copper Mountain asset.
- Re-evaluation DRO adjustment gain increased by $13.2 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.
- Evaluation expense increased by $12.2 million, primarily due to a $5.0 million and $5.7 million increase in pre-feasibility activities related to the Mason and Cactus projects, respectively.
For year-to-date 2026, other significant variances in expenses, compared to the same period in 2025, include the following:
- Impairment reversal gain decreased by $322.3 million as a result of the prior year period non-cash full impairment reversal on the carrying value of the Copper World project, following the announcement of the Copper World JV Transaction with Mitsubishi for a 30% non-controlling interest.
38
- Net finance (income) expenses increased by $92.5 million due to an increase in mark-to-market gains of $111.2 million from investments, an increase of $8.8 million in net interest income, a decrease of $5.7 million in net interest expense on long-term debt benefitting from the retirement of the 2026 senior unsecured notes, partially offset by a $35.2 million increase in net foreign exchange loss from the revaluation of foreign currency monetary balances and an increase in loss from non-QP hedges of $4.2 million.
- Evaluation expense increased by $22.8 million, primarily due to a $14.1 million and $5.7 million increase pre-feasibility study activities related to the Mason and Cactus projects respectively.
- Share-based compensation expense increased by $20.8 million primarily from the revaluation of share units due to higher share prices compared to the prior period.
- Exploration expenses increased by $14.7 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.
- Consideration received from previous sale of non-core project decreased by $14.0 million, reflecting additional contingent consideration received in the prior year period from a previously sold Copper Mountain asset.
Tax Expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, tax expense increased by $31.1 million compared to the same period in 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, tax expense increased by $170.4 million compared to the same period in 2025. The following table provides further details:

1 Deferred tax expense (recovery) represents Hudbay's draw down/increase of non-cash deferred income and mining tax assets/liabilities.
Income Tax Expense/Recovery
Applying the estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate of 26.7% to Hudbay's net earnings before taxes of $869.6 million for the year-to-date of 2026 would have resulted in a tax expense of approximately $232.2 million. Hudbay recorded an income tax expense of $266.4 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 in a tax expense of $54.1 million.
- Current mining tax deductions resulted in a tax recovery of $33.5 million.
Mining Tax Expense
For the year-to-date 2026, Hudbay recorded a mining tax expense of $122.6 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;
39
- Between mining earnings of C$50 and C$55 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 September 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 September 30, 2026, Hudbay's total liquidity of $964.3 million includes $788.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, undrawn total availability of $175.6 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities and excludes $50.1 million in Municipal Bond proceeds that is classified as restricted cash. In November 2026, the Company completed a $250.0 million increase to its revolving credit facilities. On a pro forma basis incorporating this increase, total available liquidity is $1.2 billion.

Senior Unsecured Notes
As at September 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 a $272.0 million draw on the Company's senior secured revolving credit facility ($22 million of which was repaid in the third quarter).
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities
Hudbay has two senior secured revolving credit facilities which had total commitments of $450 million ("the Credit Facilities") as at September 30, 2026 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.
Following the initial draw of the $272.0 million in the second quarter of 2026 to repay the 2026 Notes upon maturity, Hudbay repaid $22.0 million under the Canadian Credit Facility during the third quarter of 2026.
As at September 30, 2026, $250 million was drawn under the Credit Facilities and $24.4 million in letters of credit secured under the Canadian Credit Facility.
As at September 30, 2026, Hudbay was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Facilities.
In November 2026, Hudbay completed the amendments to its senior secured revolving Credit Facilities to improve balance sheet resilience with a proactive two-year extension and upsize of the facility. Under the amended agreement, the size of the credit facilities has been increased to $700 million from the existing $450 million and the term has been extended from November 2028 to November 2030, providing additional financial flexibility to manage the maturity of the 6.125% coupon 2029 senior unsecured notes and develop the Copper World project. The amended credit agreement includes an improved pricing grid that reflects Hudbay's enhanced financial position and features an opportunity to increase the facility by an additional $150 million at Hudbay's discretion during the four-year tenor, providing additional financial flexibility. After adjusting for the $250 million increase in size of the credit facilities, Hudbay's proforma liquidity as of September 30, 2026 is approximately $1.2 billion.
Municipal Bonds
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 (the "Municipal Bonds") issued by the Arizona Industrial Development Authority. 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 September 30, 2026, the Manitoba business unit had drawn $55.8 million in letters of credit under the LC Facility.
Subsequent to quarter end, Hudbay established a C$50.0 million letter of credit facility with a major Canadian financial institution. This new facility was permitted under the existing terms the Credit Facilities and has no financial covenants. There have been no letters of credit drawn under this new facility as of the date of this MD&A.
Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit
As at September 30, 2026, the United States business unit had $54.3 million in surety bonds issued to support future reclamation and closure obligations and the Peru business unit had $145.6 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 $83.9 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.
41
Working Capital
Working capital increased by $910.7 million to $845.1 million from December 31, 2025 to September 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 which was funded using available cash on hand and $272.0 million through a draw on the Company's senior secured revolving credit facility, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $219.8 million primarily as a result of the $411.7 million net proceeds from the sale of Copper World non-controlling interest and increases in operating cash flows, partially offset by repayments of 2026 senior unsecured debt and other cash outflows, an increase in trade and other receivables of $188.5 million primarily related to the deferred consideration receivable from the sale of the non-controlling interest in Copper World, an increase in other financial assets of $49.9 million as a result of an increase in restricted cash from the proceeds received from the municipal bonds, a decrease of $25.5 million in taxes payable, a decrease of $23.2 million relating to deferred revenue, a decrease in other liabilities of $11.3 million primarily relating to share-based compensation paid in the first quarter of 2026 and a decrease in other financial liabilities of $8.0 million primarily as a result of the revaluation of derivative liabilities and payments made for community agreements. These increases are offset by a $80.4 million increase in trade and other payables and a decrease in inventory by $5.8 million.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes Hudbay's cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 and for nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025:

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash generated from operating activities was $214.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, an increase of $101.4 million compared to the same period in 2025. Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $313.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $243.6 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. The increase in operating cash flows before change in working capital compared to the third quarter of 2025 was primarily the result of higher metal prices and sales volumes, partially offset by higher cash taxes paid which are a function of high taxable profits in earlier quarters in Peru and Manitoba that were subsequently payable.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 cash generated from operating activities was $723.2 million, an increase of $225.3 million compared to the same period in 2025. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $732.7 million, an increase of $305.3 million compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily the result of higher metal prices and sales volumes. This was partially offset by a significant increase in cash taxes paid of $132.9 million and stock based compensation paid, compared to the same period in 2025.
Cash Flow from Investing and Financing Activities
During the third quarter of 2026, Hudbay spent $316.7 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by $216.5 million in capital expenditures, $45.0 million in net purchases of investments, $22.0 million in repayments on the revolving credit facility, $15.5 million in capitalized lease and equipment financing payments, $6.5 million in transaction costs related to the acquisition of Arizona Sonoran, $5.0 million in deferred land payments associated with the private land purchases completed by Arizona Sonoran, $4.2 million in interest paid on Hudbay's long-term debt, $3.2 million in dividends paid and $3.2 million in financing costs paid. This was partially offset by $9.7 million in interest income received.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 Hudbay spent $499.7 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by the $509.6 million in capital expenditures,$472.5 million repurchase of the 2026 senior unsecured note, $83.7 million in net purchases of investments, $48.0 million in capitalized lease and equipment financing payments, $34.2 million in interest paid on Hudbay's long-term debt, $22.0 million in repayments on the revolving credit facility and $8.9 million in dividends paid. This was partially offset by proceeds of $411.7 million from the sale of Copper World non-controlling interest, $272.0 million cash proceeds received from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility and $25.8 million in interest 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 British Columbia growth capital increased by an additional $30 million, compared to the original 2026 guidance of $85 million due to additional costs associated with the development of infrastructure for New Ingerbelle. Copper World growth capital increased by $110 million, compared to the original guidance of $135 million before project sanctioning.
43
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, total accrued capital expenditures increased by $140.7 million and $275.8 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a planned increase in growth capital in British Columbia and Copper World growth capital.
Sustaining capital expenditures in Peru for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $33.8 million and $83.1 million, respectively, representing an increase of $10.2 million for the quarter and a decrease of $13.4 million for the nine month period 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 Manitoba for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $25.9 million and $63.8 million, respectively, representing an increase of $20.4 million and $34.5 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2025. These increases were primarily driven by project spending on the SART plant and tailing dam raise, as well as prior year spending levels being impacted by wildfire related shutdowns. Sustaining capital expenditures in British Columbia for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $33.3 million and $113.2 million, respectively, representing a decrease of $8.8 million for the quarter and an increase of $16.7 million for the nine month period compared to the same periods in 2025. Sustaining capital spending included $17.9 million and $82.7 million, respectively, of capitalized stripping related to Hudbay's planned three-year accelerated stripping campaign to access higher grade ore. The quarterly decrease was primarily driven by lower capitalized stripping costs during the period, partially offset by key sustaining projects including the SAG mill feed-end replacement. The nine month increase was primarily due to higher stripping costs driven by increased mine maintenance and fuel expenses, as well as overall larger mill project scopes.
Growth capital spending in Manitoba for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $8.1 million and $14.0 million, respectively, representing an increase of $6.8 million and $8.8 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2025. The increases were primarily due to ongoing development activities at the 1901 deposit and feasibility work on the Stall hot tailings project.
Growth capital expenditures in British Columbia for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $40.3 million and $80.4 million, respectively, representing an increase of $19.0 million and $31.6 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2025. The increases were primarily driven by the advancement and scope expansion of the New Ingerbelle project, equipment purchases dedicated to the project, exploration drilling, and mine expansion activities, partially offset by the completion of the Ball Mill 3 to Secondary SAG project in 2026.
Growth capital expenditures in Peru for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $6.8 million and $14.2 million, respectively, representing an increase of $5.3 million and $10.5 million, respectively compared to the same period in 2025. The increases were primarily driven by the pebble crusher implementation and the rougher cell project.
Copper World's capital expenditures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $66.9 million and $134.8 million, respectively, mainly related to ongoing carrying costs and feasibility preparation. Initial growth capital guidance of $135 million primarily related to feasibility study costs and de-risking activities until a Copper World project sanctioning decision and did not include post-project sanctioning construction costs. With the sanctioning of Copper World, the Company now expects growth expenditures related to the Copper World joint venture to total $245 million in 2026, reflecting an increase of $110 million related to project construction and development costs in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Capitalized exploration for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $7.7 million and $21.9 million, respectively, primarily related to New Ingerbelle.
Full year 2026 sustaining capital expenditures are expected to be $35 million lower than guidance levels due to lower capitalized stripping in Peru and British Columbia and capital deferrals and efficiencies. Full year growth capital expenditures, excluding the Copper World joint venture expenditures, are tracking in line with the revised guidance levels of $170 million reflecting the additional $30 million in infrastructure development costs at New Ingerbelle in British Columbia announced in the second quarter of 2026. As disclosed with the Copper World FID announcement and noted above, Hudbay provided post-FID spending guidance at Copper World of $110 million for the fourth quarter of 2026.

2 Annual consolidated results may not calculate based on amounts presented in this table due to rounding.
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 third quarter of 2026, copper equivalent production, sales, and financial performance increased compared to the second quarter of 2026, driven by higher realized copper prices of $6.49 per pound and higher copper equivalent production of 56,152 tonnes. Revenue grew to $765.9 million and gross profit expanded to $346.2 million, supported by stronger production and sales volumes in Manitoba, the realization of delayed Peru concentrate shipments from the second quarter, and consistent operational execution across all business units. Operating cash flow before non-cash working capital increased to $313.9 million, while quarterly Adjusted EBITDA rose to $413.4 million, delivering a record trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDA of $1,542.4 million.
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 56,152 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.
47
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.

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 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 September 30 and June 30, 2026, and September 30, 2025 and nine months ended September 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.

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 September 30, and June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 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 September 30, and June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 and nine months ended September 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 September 30, 2026 and 2025 and June 30, 2026 and nine months ended September 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 4 of Hudbay's September 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 September 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 September 30, 2026 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect Hudbay's ICFR.

Hudbay Delivers Record Third Quarter 2026 Results, Further Improves Cost Guidance and Advances Copper Growth Pipeline
Toronto, Ontario, November 12, 2026 - Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay" or the "Company") (TSX, NYSE: HBM) released its third quarter 2026 financial results today. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.
"Hudbay delivered record performance this quarter, with revenue of $766 million achieving a new record and adjusted EBITDAi of $413 million resulting in record trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDA of $1.5 billion, and we are well on our way to delivering the 12th consecutive year of achieving annual consolidated copper production guidance and the 6th consecutive year of achieving annual consolidated gold production guidance," said Peter Kukielski, Chief Executive Officer. "The strength of our diversified operating platform and the dedication of our people helped to achieve a new record for mill throughput at Constancia, significant increases in mine productivity at Lalor, record mill throughput at New Britannia and record gold recoveries at Stall during the third quarter. Our three-year operational turnaround at Copper Mountain has delivered the first quarter of positive free cash flowi since our acquisition. We are extremely well positioned to continue to prudently reinvest in several high-return growth opportunities across the business to further enhance our exposure to copper and gold. Following the quarter, Hudbay and Mitsubishi achieved a significant milestone with the final investment decision at Copper World, one of the best copper growth projects in the Americas, offering some of the highest copper grades, lowest cash costs and favourable capital intensity. We continue to solidify our position as a premier Americas-focused copper producer with a pipeline of long-life, low-cost assets in tier-one jurisdictions."
"Our diversified operations in Canada and Peru continued to achieve strong copper and gold production, with operating efficiencies, which have more than offset external cost pressures and allowed us to improve our 2026 full-year consolidated cash cost guidance for a second time this year and also improve our 2026 full-year sustaining cash cost guidance," said Eugene Lei, President and Chief Financial Officer. "We generated over $200 million in free cash flow during this quarter and more than $400 million year-to-date, even after investing over $325 million in sustaining capital across our operations. Our strong free cash flow generation and balance sheet strength position us well to fund our share of the Copper World project and make generational investments in our operating mines to double our copper production per share. This is consistent with our disciplined capital allocation framework, which focuses on generating the highest risk-adjusted returns while advancing our industry-leading growth pipeline."
Delivered Record Third Quarter Results; Production Guidance Reaffirmed and Cost Guidance Further Improved
• Achieved record quarterly revenue of $765.9 million, net earnings attributable to ownersi of $149.5 million, and quarterly adjusted EBITDAi of $413.4 million, driven by steady operating performance, attractive operating margins and strong exposure to copper and gold across Hudbay's diversified operating portfolio.
• Higher consolidated copper production of 30,152 tonnes and gold production of 69,513 ounces in the third quarter of 2026, representing a 7% and 36% increase, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2026.
• Continued to demonstrate industry-leading margins with consolidated cash costi and sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, of $(0.19) and $1.61 per pound of copper, respectively, in the third 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.

TSX, NYSE - HBM 2026 No. 29 |
• Further improved full year 2026 consolidated cash costi guidance range to $(0.55) to $(0.35) per pound of copper, an additional improvement from the previously updated guidance range of $(0.45) to $(0.25) per pound of copper, as year-to-date results are trending well below the low end of the cash cost range.
• Improved full year 2026 consolidated sustaining cash cost guidance range to $1.40 to $1.80 per pound of copper from the original guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound of copper as a result of strong exposure to gold by-product credits and continued strong operating cost control. Full year 2026 consolidated sustaining capital expenditures expected to be $35 million lower than guidance levels due to lower capitalized stripping in Peru and British Columbia and capital deferrals and efficiencies.
• Peru operations demonstrated steady operating performance with production of 20,572 tonnes of copper and 5,267 ounces of gold in the third quarter of 2026. Peru cash costi, net of by-product credits, of $2.23 per pound exceeded the upper end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $1.70 to $2.10 per pound primarily due to lower by-product credits, partially offset by better treatment and refining charges.
- Achieved record Constancia mill throughput of approximately 91,000 tonnes per day in the third quarter, on track to achieve 34 million tonnes per annum in 2027.
• Manitoba operations demonstrated strong operating performance and executed on the commitment to deliver a stronger second half of 2026 with production of 57,261 ounces of gold, 3,012 tonnes of copper, 3,691 tonnes of zinc and 268,346 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Manitoba cash costi of $403 per ounce of gold outperformed the low end of the 2026 annual guidance range of $500 to $800 per ounce as a result of higher by-product prices.
- Continued to exceed Snow Lake mill performance expectations with record New Britannia mill throughput of 2,250 tonnes per day and record Stall gold recoveries of 73.6% in the third quarter.
• British Columbia operations showed improving operating performance with production of 6,568 tonnes of copper, 6,985 ounces of gold and 52,010 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026, in line with quarterly cadence expectations. British Columbia cash costi of $3.09 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, higher fuel consumption from increased material moved and timing of equipment maintenance. While British Columbia cash cost is expected to improve in the fourth quarter with higher expected production volumes, full year cash cost is expected to track towards the high end of the annual guidance range.
- Achieved Copper Mountain mill throughput of approximately 43,500 tonnes per day in September, reflecting successive monthly increases after the completion of mill maintenance at the primary SAG mill in July, and on track to achieve the targeted 50,000 tonnes per day by the end of the year. The third quarter represented the first quarter of positive free cash flowi at Copper Mountain since its acquisition by Hudbay, demonstrating the benefits from continued operating efficiencies, recent mill improvement initiatives and ongoing execution of the accelerated stripping program.
• Third quarter earnings per share attributable to owners was $0.34, reflecting strong gross profit margins as a result of the continued focus on cost control and higher metal prices more than offsetting higher input costs. After adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis, third quarter adjusted earningsi per share attributable to owners was $0.34.
• Cash and cash equivalents were $788.7 million and total liquidityii was $964.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2026, before giving effect to a $250 million increase in size to Hudbay's credit facilities in November 2026. Cash and cash equivalents exclude $50.1 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that are classified as restricted cash and reflect $45.0 million in net purchases of investments and $22.0 million of debt repayments during the third quarter of 2026.
Record Trailing Twelve-month EBITDA and Free Cash Flow Generation; Strong Balance Sheet and Significant Financial Flexibility
• Hudbay's unique copper and gold diversification across its operations, together with a focus on cost control across the business, continues to realize strong margins and generate significant free cash flow.
• Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $313.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of $103.8 million compared to the second quarter as a result of record quarterly revenue and maintaining strong operating margins.
• Delivered free cash flowi generation of $201.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of approximately $100 million compared to the second quarter through higher production and continued strong operating margins.

• Achieved quarterly adjusted EBITDAi of $413.4 million in the third quarter of 2026, resulting in record trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDAi of $1,542.4 million.
• Recorded net debti of negative $0.1 million as at September 30, 2026, positioning the Company well to reinvest in high-return growth capital projects across the business, including the recently announced final investment decision ("FID") to proceed with the development and construction of Copper World.
• Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratioi was 0.0x in the third quarter of 2026, significantly improved from 0.4x in the fourth quarter of 2025 as a result of the initial proceeds received from Mitsubishi Corporation ("Mitsubishi") on closing of the Copper World joint venture transaction in January 2026, along with strong cash flows from operations.
• Consistent with Hudbay's prudent balance sheet management and balanced capital allocation framework, Hudbay repaid $22.0 million of its outstanding $272 million draw on its revolving credit facilities in the third quarter of 2026.
• As announced with the Copper World FID in October, Hudbay proactively amended and extended its existing revolving credit facilities. Total capacity under the facilities was upsized from $450 million to $700 million and the maturity date of the facilities was extended by two years to November 2030. The amended credit agreements include an improved pricing grid and greater financial flexibility that reflects Hudbay's robust cash flow, strong balance sheet position, and its recently upgraded credit rating. After adjusting for the $250 million increase in size of the credit facilities, Hudbay's proforma liquidity as of September 30, 2026 is approximately $1.2 billion.
Advancing Brownfield and Greenfield Investments to Drive Strong Returns and Significant Production Growth
• Formally approved, along with Mitsubishi, the FID to proceed with the construction and development of Copper World as the next major copper mine in the U.S. with first production targeted for the second half of 2029. The FID is supported by robust economic returns with low capital intensity outlined in the Copper World definitive feasibility study and related pre-feasibility studies (collectively, the "DFS") which delivers annual copper production of 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years, an 11% increase when compared to 92,000 tonnes in Hudbay's 2023 pre-feasibility study for Copper World ("2023 PFS").
- The base case for Copper World contemplates a 15-year mine life utilizing mineral reserves and requires only state and local permits ("Base Case") and expands the concentrator in year five to enable a 43% increase in average annual copper production to 120,000 tonnes in years six to 10 compared to 84,000 tonnes over the first five years. The Base Case generates an after-tax net present value (8%) of $1.2 billion and internal rate of return of 17% at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, which increases to $2.3 billion and 22%, respectively, at a copper price of $6.00 per pound.
- The extension case for Copper World contemplates a 37-year mine life utilizing only measured and indicated mineral resources and expands mining activities onto federal lands in year 10, subject to obtaining federal permits ("Extension Case"), maintaining annual copper production of 117,000 tonnes from years 11 to 20. The Extension Case generates an after-tax net present value (8%) of $2.5 billion and internal rate of return of 19% at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, increasing to $4.0 billion and 24%, respectively, at a copper price of $6.00 per pound.
- As a result of Hudbay's capital allocation strategy and prudent Copper World funding plan, the levered internal rate of return to Hudbay increases to 32% at $5.00 per pound of copper long-term in the Base Case and to 44% at $6.00 per pound of copper in the Extension Case.
• Enhanced the gold production profile at Snow Lake and extended reserve mine life to 18 years with updated life of mine plan released in September. Total life-of-mine gold production increased by 60% and reserve mine life extended by an additional two years to 2043, which together with the four-year extension in March 2026 represents a total of six years added to the reserve mine life.
- Updated five-year averageiii annual gold production of 185,000 ounces reflects continued strong mill throughput rates at New Britannia and higher gold recoveries at Stall, representing a 37% increase in total gold production from an additional 250,000 ounces produced over the same five-year period in the Snow Lake 2021 technical report.
- Snow Lake updated mineral reserve estimates increased contained gold to 2.0 million ounces, and the updated mine plan represents a conservative view based on Hudbay's historical high resource-to-reserve conversion rate of 90%iv and ongoing exploration activities. There remains 1.5 million ounces of gold contained in inferred mineral resource estimates.

• Implementing mill enhancements at Constancia to drive further increases in mill throughput and copper recoveries. The completion of the installation of a third rougher line late in the third quarter is expected to drive higher copper recoveries starting in the fourth quarter. The installation of two pebble crushers is nearing completion with commissioning expected in November, resulting in increased processing capacity at the Constancia mill.
• Advancing the development of infrastructure at the New Ingerbelle extension project in British Columbia and de-risking the path to first production in late 2028. New Ingerbelle is expected to enhance the copper and gold production profile and secure a longer mine life at Copper Mountain.
• Advancing the recently acquired Cactus project in Arizona by initiating pre-feasibility study ("PFS") activities, including multiple trade-off studies, with completion expected in the second half of 2027.
• Continuing to derisk the long-term Mason project in Nevada through PFS and other site activities. The Mason PFS is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
Positive Exploration Results Across the Business
• Recent exploration drilling in Peru intersected a potential new high-grade feeder system at Constancia in multiple drill holes, with highlights including 245 metres of 0.43% copper and 0.03% molybdenum, indicating high-grade expansion potential beneath and adjacent to the existing reserve and resource envelope. Follow up drilling is underway.
• Continuing to execute an extensive exploration program in Snow Lake from recently developed underground exploration drifts at Lalor and 1901 to enable infill drilling and testing of mineralized extensions, while also testing identified high-priority targets at the former producing New Britannia gold mine currently on care and maintenance (the "Britannia Gold Project"). Regional geophysics, mapping, structural modeling and data compilations underway to support target definition for new anchor deposits.
• Completing a targeted drilling program at New Ingerbelle focused on upgrading existing inferred resources to reserves to further optimize and extend the mine life at Copper Mountain. Results are expected to be incorporated in Hudbay's annual reserve and resource update in March 2027.
Summary of Third Quarter Results
Hudbay's diversified asset portfolio delivered consolidated copper production of 30,152 tonnes and consolidated gold production of 69,513 ounces in the third quarter of 2026, positioning the Company well to meet full-year 2026 consolidated production guidance. Consolidated copper production was higher than the second quarter of 2026 as a result of record high mill throughput in Peru and higher grades offsetting lower mill throughput in British Columbia. Consolidated gold production was higher than in the second quarter of 2026 primarily due to increased throughput and grades in Manitoba. Consolidated silver production of 897,587 ounces was higher than the second quarter of 2026 primarily driven by increased mill throughput and higher grades, while zinc production of 3,691 tonnes in the third quarter of 2026 decreased compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting lower zinc grades at the Manitoba operations.
Cash generated from operating activities was $214.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, reflecting a decrease of $82.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily driven by unfavourable changes in non-cash working capital. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital was $313.9 million during the third quarter of 2026, an increase of $103.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting higher realized copper prices and increased sales volumes.
Adjusted EBITDAi was $413.4 million in the third quarter of 2026, a 29% increase compared to $321.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher realized copper prices and higher copper, gold and silver sales volumes.
Net earnings attributable to owners was $149.5 million, or $0.34 per share, in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $137.4 million, or $0.34 per share, in the second quarter of 2026. The strength in aggregate earnings resulted from the aforementioned high revenue due to higher sales volumes of all metals, and cost control resilience in the face of higher diesel prices.

Adjusted net earnings attributable to ownersi and adjusted net earnings per share attributable to ownersi in the third quarter of 2026 were $149.5 million and $0.34 per share, respectively, after adjusting for various non-cash items on a pre-tax basis including $13.4 million in evaluation expenses, a $5.4 million mark-to-market revaluation net loss on various financial instruments, share-based compensation and offsetting mark-to-market gains on investments, a non-cash $11.8 million gain in re-evaluation adjustment on environmental provisions, among other items. This compares to adjusted net earnings attributable to ownersi and net earnings per share attributable to ownersi of $113.5 million and $0.28 per share, respectively, in the second quarter of 2026. The increase is a result of higher realized metal prices for copper and zinc and the aforementioned higher sales volumes.
Consolidated cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $(0.19) per pound of copper, compared to $(0.40) per pound in the second quarter of 2026. The increase from the second quarter of 2026 was in line with the expected cost cadence and is the result of lower by-product credits and slightly higher mine operating costs.
Consolidated sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $1.61 per pound of copper, compared to $1.39 per pound in the second quarter of 2026. This increase was primarily due to the same factors impacting consolidated cash cost noted above. Consolidated all-in sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $2.25 per pound of copper, higher than the second quarter of 2026 due to the same reasons noted above.
As at September 30, 2026, total liquidityii was $964.3 million, including $788.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, which excludes $50.1 million in U.S. municipal bond proceeds that are classified as restricted cash, and undrawn availability of $175.6 million under Hudbay's revolving credit facilities (prior to giving effect to the $250 million increase in size to the credit facilities in November 2026). Cash and cash equivalents reflect $45.0 million in net purchases of investments and $22.0 million in debt repayments during the third quarter of 2026. Net debti at the end of the third quarter was negative $0.1 million. Hudbay expects that its current liquidity, together with cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs for the next 12 months. With the successful execution of its disciplined capital allocation strategy, attracting Mitsubishi as a long-term strategic joint venture partner and a prudent project funding plan, Hudbay's Copper World capital contributions are expected to be approximately $500 million, representing less than 25% of the initial growth capital, with capital contributions not expected to be required until 2028.

TSX, NYSE - HBM 2026 No. 29 |
The Company completed the installation of a third rougher line in September, which resulted in immediate improvements in copper recoveries. Hudbay continues to advance the installation of pebble crushers at Constancia to increase mill throughput rates starting in the fourth quarter of 2026, which will allow the mine to continue to deliver steady annual copper production despite lower grades following the depletion of Pampacancha at the end of 2025.
During the third quarter of 2026, the Peru operations produced 20,572 tonnes of copper, 5,267 ounces of gold, 577,231 ounces of silver and 301 tonnes of molybdenum. Production of copper, silver and molybdenum was slightly higher compared to the second quarter of 2026, reflecting higher mill throughput as a result of efficiency improvements and the impacts of the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown during the second quarter of 2026. Production of gold was comparable to the second quarter of 2026. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Peru with gold production expected to exceed the top end of the guidance range.
Total material moved during the third quarter of 2026 was 25.0 million tonnes, reflecting operational efficiencies from mining exclusively in one pit, including shorter hauling distances and improved productivity resulting from haul route optimizations. These optimizations resulted in achieving a new monthly record for total volume of material moved in July 2026. Total ore mined during the quarter increased by 16% to 12.7 million tonnes compared to the second quarter of 2026, supported by active mining across three exposed ore phases and positive reconciliation yielding higher tonnage than predicted by the geological model.
Constancia achieved record mill throughput levels of approximately 91,300 tonnes per day in the third quarter of 2026, representing a 7% increase compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher plant availability and lower ore hardness, as well as the benefits of increased mill processing capacity supported by the recently approved permit amendment. Milled copper grades and gold grades remained consistent with the second quarter of 2026. Metal recoveries remained in line with expectations.
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costi in the third quarter of 2026 was $13.60 per tonne, representing a 3% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher ore tonnage milled and reduced mill maintenance costs following the completion of the planned semi-annual plant maintenance shutdown in the second quarter. This efficiency gain was partially offset by higher social spending during the quarter.
Cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $2.23 per pound of copper, an increase of 34% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to lower silver and gold by-product credits and higher profit sharing, combined with the continued higher fuel prices with higher fuel consumption from increased material moved. This was partially offset by lower plant maintenance costs following the completion of the semi-annual mill shutdown in the second quarter of 2026.
Year-to-date cash cost continues to outperform 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.
Sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $3.23 per pound of copper, an increase of 19% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to the same reasons affecting cash costs above, as well as higher hauling costs related to additional material sent to the tailings management facility.
As part of the Company's continuous improvement efforts, Hudbay obtained updated permits in 2026 to enable additional capacity to further optimize Constancia's operations and deliver strong copper production. 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. The corresponding operating permit for this expansion is expected to follow in due course. In March 2026, Hudbay received the previous operating permit to increase mill throughput capacity to 31 million tonnes from 29.9 million tonnes per annum. The Peru Ministry of Energy and Mines' regulatory framework provides operational flexibility to handle daily increases of up to 10% above permitted levels.

The Manitoba operations delivered strong operating performance in the third quarter of 2026, driven by the achievement of key operational performance targets and the benefits from strategic initiatives implemented earlier in the year, positioning the business to achieve full-year guidance metrics while advancing key growth and infrastructure projects.
Performance at the Lalor mine significantly improved during the third quarter, with improved equipment utilization driving efficiencies in underground development, and higher gold and copper head grades contributing to increased production compared to the second quarter of 2026.
To address prior labour availability constraints and accelerate development at the 1901 deposit, Hudbay embedded an experienced mining contractor at 1901, allowing internal skilled labour to be redeployed toward critical development areas at Lalor. In tandem, Hudbay expanded its internal capacity by onboarding over 150 new employees thus far in 2026, who are undergoing upskilling to support long-term self-sufficiency. Underground improvement efforts also advanced during the third quarter, including operational testing of a roadheader continuous mining unit at Lalor to understand lateral development applications.
The Manitoba operations produced 57,261 ounces of gold, 3,012 tonnes of copper, 3,691 tonnes of zinc and 268,346 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Production of gold, copper and silver increased compared to the second quarter of 2026 as a result of higher mill throughput and improved gold feed grades, while zinc production decreased due to lower zinc feed grades. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 production guidance for all metals in Manitoba.
The Lalor mine hoisted an average of approximately 4,200 tonnes of ore per day during the third quarter of 2026, strategically prioritizing gold feed. Development activity at the 1901 deposit focused on exploration and infill drilling, orebody access, and critical infrastructure, with late 2027 remaining the targeted timeline for full production. Total ore mined in Manitoba in the third quarter of 2026 increased compared to the second quarter of 2026, driven by improved equipment utilization and haulage efficiencies. The gold grades increased by 16% compared to the second quarter of 2026 as production prioritized gold-focused mining areas.
The New Britannia mill achieved a new quarterly mill throughput record, averaging approximately 2,250 tonnes per day in the third quarter of 2026, aligning with gold ore output from Lalor and achieving new record gold recoveries of approximately 92% during the quarter.
The Stall mill demonstrated higher quarterly throughput compared to the third quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2026, matching Lalor base metal production, while achieving new record gold recoveries of 74% as a result of recovery focused initiatives.
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costsi were C$282 per tonne in the third quarter of 2026. Combined unit costs improved from the second quarter of 2026 as higher ore throughput offset elevated variable site expenses, including operational testing of the continuous miner unit at Lalor.

Cash costi, net of by-product credits, was $403 per ounce of gold in the third quarter of 2026. This represents a decrease of 48% compared to the second quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher gold production and higher by-product credits driven by higher metal prices and volumes, which were partially offset by higher mining and G&A costs. Hudbay is well positioned to achieve its 2026 cash cost guidance range in Manitoba.
Sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, was $898 per ounce of gold in the third quarter of 2026, lower than the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting the same factors affecting cash costs, partially offset by higher sustaining capital. As reflected in the Company's 2026 annual guidance, sustaining capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2025, in part due to one-time investments to raise the dam at the Anderson Tailings Impoundment Area and the New Britannia mill cyanide recycling project.
Hudbay initiated early works on the Stall Hot Tails Leaching project to unlock additional gold recovery from material processed at the Stall mill through leaching at New Britannia. Hudbay has also initiated early evaluation work on processing legacy tailings and mineralized piles to utilize excess mill capacity.

The British Columbia operations produced 6,568 tonnes of copper, 6,985 ounces of gold and 52,010 ounces of silver in the third quarter of 2026. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, copper and gold production increased as higher head grades and improved recoveries offset the impact of maintenance downtime on the primary SAG mill. Silver production decreased due to localized head grade variations. Hudbay is on track to achieve its 2026 full year production guidance for all metals in British Columbia.
Total material movement at Copper Mountain was approximately 26.9 million tonnes (approximately 292,300 tonnes per day) in the third quarter of 2026. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, total material movement decreased by 11% due to fleet availability constraints and reduced productivity in the active mining areas. Waste movement associated with the New Ingerbelle east haul road development totaled 5.6 million tonnes during the quarter.
Total ore mined at Copper Mountain in the third quarter of 2026 was 5.1 million tonnes, an increase of 56% compared to the second quarter of 2026. The increase was driven by favourable ore release timing from the north pit.
Copper Mountain achieved mill throughput of approximately 43,500 tonnes per day in September, reflecting successive monthly mill throughput increases after the completion of mill maintenance at the primary SAG mill in July, and Hudbay is on track to achieve the targeted 50,000 tonnes per day by the end of the year. The mill processed 3.1 million tonnes of ore during the third quarter of 2026, 15% lower than the second quarter of 2026, reflecting 33 days of planned maintenance downtime for the primary SAG mill feed end head replacement. Higher hourly operating throughput following the restart partially offset the planned outage.
Milled copper head grades averaged 0.27% in the third quarter of 2026, representing an increase of 17% compared to the second quarter of 2026, due to higher grade ore released from active mining faces. Copper recoveries slightly increased to approximately 80% in the third quarter, representing an improvement compared to the second quarter of 2026. Gold recoveries were lower than the second quarter of 2026, while circuit optimization efforts continue to focus on managing flotation response at coarser grind sizes.
Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costsi in the third quarter of 2026 were C$34.20 per tonne milled, higher than the second quarter of 2026. This unit operating cost increase was driven by lower capitalized stripping, higher fuel and mobile equipment maintenance costs, and additional maintenance expenses associated with the planned primary SAG mill shutdown.
Cash costi, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2026 was $3.09 per pound of copper produced. Cash cost decreased by 4% compared to the second quarter of 2026, benefiting from higher copper production, lower treatment and refining charges, and strong gold and silver by-product credits, which offset higher site operating costs. Higher copper production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026 resulting in full year cash costs expected to track toward the high end of the annual guidance range in British Columbia.
Sustaining cash costi, net of by-product credits, was $6.30 per pound of copper in the third quarter of 2026, slightly higher than the second quarter of 2026 due to higher royalty costs, partially offset by lower cash costs and reduced sustaining capital expenditures.
Following the June groundbreaking, the New Ingerbelle project continued to advance infrastructure development in the third quarter of 2026, with construction of key infrastructure connecting the expansion on the west side of the Similkameen river to existing operations on the east side progressing on schedule. Key milestones achieved during the quarter included completion of the west access road and establishment of a temporary construction bridge to facilitate the installation of the permanent bridge. Hudbay also continued to advance construction of the east haul road, which was 38% complete at the end of the third quarter. The New Ingerbelle expansion is expected to support continuous operations beyond 2040 and provide access to higher grade ore at approximately one third of the strip ratio compared to recent historical mining areas.

Approved Copper World Project Construction; Advancing Next Major U.S. Copper Mine Towards First Production in 2029
Hudbay and Mitsubishi have formally approved the FID to proceed with the construction and development of Copper World as the next major copper mine in the U.S. with first production targeted for the second half of 2029. Hudbay filed the National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") technical report in support of the DFS in October 2026, concurrently with the Copper World FID.
Copper World will be one of the largest open-pit copper mines in the United States. It is anticipated to increase Hudbay's consolidated annual copper production to approximately 250,000 tonnes, doubling current production levels together with other brownfield growth projects underway. The DFS outlines annual copper production of 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years, an 11% increase when compared to 92,000 tonnes in Hudbay's 2023 PFS. Copper World is expected to deliver average annual EBITDAi of $661 million over the first 10 years in the Base Case and $735 million over the next 10 years in the Extension Case at a copper price of $5.00 per pound. Using a copper price of $6.00 per pound, Copper World's annual EBITDA over these periods increases to $859 million and $963 million in the Base Case and Extension Case, respectively, representing an 80% to 90% increase in Hudbay's consolidated annual EBITDA as compared to 2025.
The Base Case presented in the DFS is used to support the mineral reserve estimates of 390 million tonnes with strong copper grades of 0.47% over a 15 year mine plan. Total mill feed tonnage in the Base Case is comparable to the 2023 PFS. The Base Case is limited to the exterior boundary of Copper World's private landholdings requiring only state and local permits. All major permits have been obtained for construction and initial operations.
• Base Case after-tax net present value (8%) is $1.2 billion with an internal rate of return of 17% and an initial payback period of 5.4 years at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound. At a copper price of $6.00 per pound, the after-tax net present value (8%) increases to $2.3 billion and the internal rate of return increases to 22%.
• Base Case average annual copper production is 102,000 tonnes over the first 10 years at average cash costsv and sustaining cash costsv of $1.65 and $2.22 per pound of copper, respectively.
• Base Case further optimizes the 2023 PFS mine plan with an in-pit crushing and conveying system in year four and an expansion of the concentrator from 60,000 tons per day to 90,000 tons per day in year five.
• Concentrator expansion enables a 43% increase in average annual copper production to 120,000 tonnes in years six to 10 compared to 84,000 tonnes over the first five years.
• Base Case annual average EBITDA is $566 million over the mine life at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound, increasing to $742 million at a long-term copper price of $6.00 per pound.
The Extension Case reflects a phased development approach that minimizes initial waste rock movement while operations remain constrained to the existing exterior boundary over the first 10 years and then expand beyond Copper World's private property and onto its unpatented lode and mill site claims starting in year 10 to achieve and sustain a higher total material movement capacity. The Extension Case contemplates a 37-year mine life utilizing only measured and indicated mineral resources totalling 1,048 million tonnes and requires federal permits by year 10 of operations.
• Extension Case after-tax net present value (8%) is $2.5 billion with an internal rate of return of 19% and an initial payback period of 5.4 years at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound. At a copper price of $6.00 per pound, the after-tax net present value (8%) increases to $4.0 billion and the internal rate of return increases to 24%.
• Extension Case average annual copper production over the first 10 years is similar to the Base Case with 101,000 tonnes and increases to 117,000 tonnes over the period from year 11 to 20. Average cash costsv and sustaining cash costsv over the 10-year period from year 11 to 20 are expected to be $1.76 and $2.20 per pound of copper, respectively.
• Extension Case average annual EBITDA is $522 million over the mine life and $735 million over the period from year 11 to 20 at a long-term copper price of $5.00 per pound.

Copper World is one of the lowest capital intensity copper projects, maintaining an attractive capital intensity of approximately $22,600 per annual copper tonne using average production in years five to twelve, including the expansion growth capital in years three and four. With initial growth capital of $2.07 billionvi ($1.84 billion net of precious metals stream deposit), which includes approximately $200 million related to changes in project scope since the 2023 PFS, Hudbay has put in place prudent funding and a low leverage financing plan. The sources of capital include Mitsubishi's $600 million initial joint venture equity investment and Wheaton Precious Metals Corp.'s $230 million deposit for the existing precious metals stream, followed by approximately $650 million in anticipated project-level debt financing, representing less than 30% leverage. This defers Hudbay's first pro-rata equity capital contribution to 2028.
With the prudent funding structure, the levered internal rate of return to Hudbay increases to 32% at $5.00 per pound of copper long-term in the Base Case and to 44% at $6.00 per pound of copper in the Extension Case. Copper World's FID enables Hudbay to deliver its growth initiatives and maximize long-term risk-adjusted returns, while maintaining strong financial discipline within Hudbay's holistic capital allocation framework.
Hudbay's 2026 growth capital spending guidance related to the Copper World joint venture includes approximately $135 million of expenditures before the FID. As previously disclosed with the sanctioning of Copper World, the Company now expects full year growth expenditures related to the Copper World joint venture to total $245 million in 2026, reflecting an increase of $110 million related to project construction and development costs in the fourth quarter of 2026, as previously disclosed with the FID announcement in October 2026.
Executing Staged U.S. Growth Investment Strategy to Unlock Copper Growth Pipeline
Hudbay continues to invest across its United States platform beyond Copper World through advancing PFS activities at both Cactus and Mason. These assets along with Copper World 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 Cactus project is a highly complementary copper growth asset in Arizona, with potential to generate significant operational efficiencies and regional synergies with Hudbay's staged development of Copper World and Cactus. After the completed acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. in the second quarter of 2026, Hudbay announced it expects to spend approximately $30 million at Cactus in the second half of the year to advance an updated PFS, perform site de-risking activities, conduct exploration activities and for other ongoing site costs. The updated Cactus PFS, including multiple trade-off studies, is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
The Mason project, in Nevada, is one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry deposits in North America and is viewed as a long-term future development asset as part of Hudbay's pipeline of high-quality copper growth opportunities. The Company continued to progress PFS activities at Mason during the quarter and expects to spend approximately $20 million in evaluation expenses at Mason in 2026, as announced previously. The Mason PFS is approximately 45% complete and is expected to be completed in the second half of 2027.
Enhanced Gold Production Profile at the Snow Lake Operations
Hudbay released an updated Snow Lake mine plan on September 28, 2026. The updated Snow Lake mine plan reflects a 37% increase in gold production over the next five yearsiii and a 60% increase in total gold production over the life-of-mine, based on current mineral reserves, compared to the prior 2021 Snow Lake technical report. The updated Snow Lake mine plan maintains average production of 185,000 ounces of gold over the next five yearsiii reflecting several optimization initiatives including higher mill throughput at New Britannia and higher gold recoveries at the Stall mill to better utilize the combined 6,300 tonnes per day of processing capacity.
The updated Snow Lake mine plan reflects a mining ramp up to approximately 2.0 million tonnes per year and maintains this profile over the next decade. This reflects Lalor operating at 4,000 to 4,500 tonnes per day, supplemented by contributions from the 1901 deposit and several additional satellites to supplement Lalor mill feed and increase total ore mined to approximately 5,000 tonnes per day.

TSX, NYSE - HBM 2026 No. 29 |
Snow Lake's proven and probable reserve mine life has been extended by an additional two years to 2043, which together with the four-year extension announced in March 2026 represents a total of six years added to the reserve mine life. Current mineral reserve estimates in Snow Lake as of September 1, 2026 total 27.0 million tonnes with approximately 2.0 million ounces of gold. This represents an increase in mineral reserves of 7.5 million tonnes, unlocking 124,000 ounces of additional gold. Hudbay filed a technical report pursuant to NI 43-101 in support of the updated mine plan for Snow Lake on November 6, 2026.
The increase in reserves and extension of mine life is due to resource conversion at Lalor and 1901, higher reserves at the WIM and 3 Zone satellite deposits and the first reserve estimates for the Talbot and Rail satellite deposits following the completion of infill and geotechnical drilling. Hudbay expects to continue to achieve high rates of resource to reserve conversion and further optimize the mine plan.
The Snow Lake mine plan has been optimized for higher mill throughput rates at New Britannia maximizing gold production and cash flows. The New Britannia mill currently operates at more than 2,000 tonnes per day, continuing to exceed nameplate design of 1,500 tonnes per day, and the updated mine plan reflects New Britannia ramping up to 2,300 tonnes per day starting in 2027. The updated mine plan also reflects an additional recovery improvement project at Stall that aims to recover additional gold and silver through expansion of cyanide leaching and carbon adsorption infrastructure at New Britannia to accommodate material from Stall (the "Stall Hot Tails Leaching" project). Commissioning of Stall Hot Tails Leaching project is expected in early 2028 and it is anticipated to increase overall gold and silver recoveries.
Manitoba Exploration Strategy to Further Optimize the Mine Plan and Discover a New Anchor Deposit
Hudbay continues to advance many brownfield expansion and exploration opportunities in Snow Lake to further optimize the mine plan to maintain current annual gold production levels beyond 2030, extend mine life beyond 2043 and explore for new anchor deposits to provide significant gold production growth beyond the 180,000-ounce annual target. This includes executing an extensive exploration program in Snow Lake and more broadly across its highly prospective land package extending over 400,000 hectares across the Flin Flon-Snow Lake greenstone belt.
1) Conversion of Large Inferred Resources to Further Increase Production and Extend Mine Life - Continued infill drilling of existing resource base at Lalor and known satellites will continue to support mine plan optimization.
- Potential to convert the 1.5 million ounces of gold in inferred resources to reserves through infill drilling.
- Hudbay has historically converted approximately 90% of inferred resources to reserves at the Lalor deposit over the past five yearsiv.
2) Extension of the Current Anchor Deposit at Lalor - Maximize value from existing infrastructure through mine life extension at the highest margin deposits, while extending the window of opportunity to discover a new anchor deposit.
- Lalor and 1901 continue to show extensions of high-grade, stacked lenses, and remain open down plunge.
- Mine life extensions at the current anchor will further increase cash flows and defer growth capital associated with the development of satellite deposits.
3) Discovery of a New Anchor Deposit - Meaningfully add to current production levels and significantly extend mine life through the discovery of the next major anchor deposit in the region.
- The Britannia Gold Project provides the opportunity to re-develop an underexplored, past-producing deposit with the potential to become a new anchor in the Snow Lake camp.
- Regional exploration on the large and highly prospective land package, including exploration for both volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) and orogenic gold deposits.
In the third quarter of 2026, advancement of underground exploration drifts at both Lalor and 1901 established new drilling platforms that will enable additional infill drilling of inferred resources and testing for extensions along mineralized trends in the high-grade copper-gold zones. At the Britannia Gold Project, digitization and remodeling of decades of historical data has identified several high-priority target areas laterally and down-plunge from known mineralization. Drilling from surface is currently underway and progressing in parallel to the assessment of options to restore historical underground access from the New Britannia shaft infrastructure. Regional airborne geophysics, mapping, structural modeling and data compilations progressed in the third quarter in both the Flin Flon and Snow Lake areas to support target definition for new anchor deposits.

Constancia Drilling Campaign Intersects Potential High-Grade Copper-Molybdenum Feeder System
Hudbay's ongoing 2026 drilling exploration program at the Constancia operations in southern Peru has demonstrated high-grade expansion potential beneath and adjacent to the existing reserve and resource envelope, within the Company's existing area of operations, as shown in Figure 1.
Two deep diamond drill holes successfully intersected lateral and down-dip extensions of the skarn envelopes and mineralized breccia zones below and adjacent to the Constancia pit. Drill holes CO-26-003 and CO-26-005 intersected significant widths of mineralized breccia extending beyond the limits of the current resource at grades higher than current reserve grades. A re-assessment of the localized structural and geological controls on mineralization is underway to support target definition for follow up drilling. The initial results indicate meaningful width and grade, while showing potential for orebody extensions at depth.
Highlights of the breccia drill hole intercepts are as follows (please refer to Exhibit 1 for further information):
• Hole CO-26-003 intersected 245 metres at 0.43% copper and 0.03% molybdenum, including 124 metres at 0.55% copper and 0.05% molybdenum from 478 metres.
• Hole CO-26-005 intersected 302 metres at 0.36% copper and 0.02% molybdenum from 396 metres, including 64 metres at 0.50% copper and 0.04% molybdenum from 618 metres.
Hudbay intends to continue ongoing geological and geochemical vectoring investigations to confirm the geometry and structural controls of this interpreted feeder system, as well as continue the exploration drilling to determine the potential scale and economic potential of mineralization both down-plunge and at depth. This high-grade system has the potential to enhance Constancia's long-term production profile.
New Ingerbelle Infill and Expansion Drilling Nearing Completion
Hudbay is nearing completion of a 66,000-metre drill program aimed at converting inferred resources to measured and indicated categories at the New Ingerbelle deposit as well as testing possible extensions beyond the limits of the current mineral resource, the results of which are expected to be reflected in Hudbay's annual mineral reserves and resources update in March 2027. Additional geotechnical drilling and geometallurgical sampling are underway to support mine plan optimization and metallurgical recovery modeling.
Proactive Two-Year Extension and Upsize of Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities
In November 2026, Hudbay completed the amendments to its senior secured revolving credit facilities to improve balance sheet resilience with a proactive two-year extension and upsize of the facilities. Under the amended credit agreements, the size of the credit facilities has been increased from the existing $450 million to $700 million, and the term has been extended to November 2030, providing additional financial flexibility to manage the maturity of Hudbay's 2029 senior unsecured notes and develop the Copper World project. The amended credit agreement includes an improved pricing grid and greater financial flexibility that reflects Hudbay's enhanced financial position and features an opportunity to increase the facilities by an additional $150 million at Hudbay's discretion during the four-year tenor. After adjusting for the $250 million increase in size of the credit facilities, Hudbay's proforma liquidity as of September 30, 2026 is approximately $1.2 billion.
Industry Recognition of Hudbay's Growth Success

Furthermore, in October, Hudbay was recognized on the Fortune Fastest Growing Companies™ 2026 list, which highlights publicly traded companies demonstrating exceptional growth across key financial measures. This recognition evaluates companies based on their revenue growth, earnings-per-share growth, and three-year annualized total return, requiring qualifying companies to have posted an annualized growth in revenue and earnings per share of at least 15% annually over a three-year period.
Key Leadership Appointment
Following the quarter, Hudbay has appointed Chad Vinkle as Vice President and Head of the British Columbia Business Unit. Prior to his appointment, Mr. Vinkle had been serving as General Manager of Operations at Copper Mountain mine where he paired robust safety standards with operational efficiency that contributed to the site achieving productivity and safety objectives under his leadership. Mr. Vinkle brings over 30 years of industry experience, including nearly a decade with Hudbay acting as General Manager at Hudbay's Lalor operations in Manitoba.
Board Appointment
During the quarter, Hudbay announced the appointment of Thomas Schulz to the Company's Board of Directors. Mr. Schulz's extensive leadership experience across the globe and significant knowledge of the mining industry make him an excellent addition to the Board as Hudbay continues to grow through its strong pipeline of brownfield and greenfield projects.
Mr. Schulz is currently the Chief Executive Officer of Bilfinger SE, a German-based industrial service provider with a global footprint in the process industry. His executive leadership experience spans over 25 years and includes nine years as the Group CEO of FLSmidth, a leading provider of services and solutions to the mining industry, and more than a decade at Sandvik, where he rose through multiple senior executive roles, including as President of Sandvik Construction. Mr. Schulz also has significant board experience, including several years as a director at Norsk Hydro ASA and Boart Longyear Group Ltd, and more recently at Konecranes PLC, where he currently serves as a director. Mr. Schulz holds a PhD in mineral mining and quarrying and an engineering diploma in mineral processing from RWTH Aachen University.

Qualified Person and NI 43-101
The technical and scientific information in this news release related to the Constancia mine and Copper World project has been approved by Olivier Tavchandjian, P. Geo., Senior Vice President, Exploration and Technical Services. The technical and scientific information in this news release related to the Copper Mountain mine and Snow Lake, Manitoba operations has been approved by Marc-Andre Brulotte, P. Geo., Executive Director, Global Mineral Resource Evaluation. Messrs. Tavchandjian and Brulotte are qualified persons pursuant to NI 43-101.
For a description of the key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate mineral reserves and resources at Hudbay's material mineral properties, as well as data verification procedures and a general discussion of the extent to which the estimates of scientific and technical information may be affected by any known environmental, permitting, legal title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing or other relevant factors, please see the technical reports for the Company's material properties, which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, please refer to Exhibit 1 for further information regarding the quality assurance program and quality control measures applied in connection with the Constancia exploration results described in this news release.
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 provide alternate measures 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.
