HUDBAY MINERALS INC.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

1.	Reporting entity
	On January 1, 2017, HudBay Minerals Inc. amalgamated under the Canada Business Corporations Act with its subsidiaries Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting Co., Limited and Hudson Bay Exploration and Development Company Limited to form Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“HMI” or the “Company”). The address of the Company's principal executive office is 25 York Street, Suite 800, Toronto, Ontario. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (“interim financial statements”) of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 represent the financial position and the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group” or “Hudbay” and individually as “Group entities”).
	Wholly owned subsidiaries as at September 30, 2017, include HudBay Marketing & Sales Inc. (“HMS”), HudBay Peru Inc., HudBay Peru S.A.C. ("Hudbay Peru"), HudBay (BVI) Inc., HudBay Arizona Corporation (formerly Augusta Resource Corporation, “Augusta” or “Hudbay Arizona”) and Rosemont Copper Company (“Rosemont”).
	Hudbay is an integrated mining company primarily producing copper concentrate (containing copper, gold and silver), zinc concentrate and zinc metal. With assets in North and South America, the Group is focused on the discovery, production and marketing of base and precious metals. Directly and through its subsidiaries, Hudbay owns four polymetallic mines, four ore concentrators and a zinc production facility in northern Manitoba and Saskatchewan (Canada) and Cusco (Peru) and a copper project in Arizona (United States). The Group also has equity investments in a number of junior exploration companies. The Company is governed by the Canada Business Corporations Act and its shares are listed under the symbol "HBM" on the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and Bolsa de Valores de Lima. Hudbay also has warrants listed under the symbol “HBM.WT” on the Toronto Stock Exchange and “HBM/WS” on the New York Stock Exchange.
	Management does not consider the impact of seasonality on operations to be significant on the interim financial statements.
2.	Basis of preparation

(a)	Statement of compliance:
	These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting and do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
	These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 which includes information necessary or useful to understanding the Company’s business and financial statement presentation. In particular, the Company’s significant accounting policies are presented as note 3 in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements.
	The Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements on November 1, 2017.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

(b)	Functional and presentation currency:
	The Group's interim financial statements are presented in US dollars, which is the Company’s and all material subsidiaries' functional currency, except the Company’s Manitoba Business Unit, which has a functional currency of Canadian dollars. All values are rounded to the nearest thousand ($000) except where otherwise indicated.
(c)	Use of judgement:
	The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Group to make judgements, apart from those involving estimations, 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.
	The interim financial statements reflect the judgements outlined by the Group in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.
(d)	Use of estimates and assumptions:
	The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Group to make estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, 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 estimates.
	The interim financial statements reflect the estimates outlined by the Group in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.

3.	Significant accounting policies
	These interim financial statements reflect the accounting policies applied by the Group in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and comparative periods.

4.	New standards
	New standards and interpretations adopted

−

Amendment to IAS 7, Statement of Cash Flows (“IAS 7”) - On January 29, 2016, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 7. The amendments come with the objective that entities shall provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities. The Group applied this amendment on January 1, 2017. The Group discloses changes in liabilities arising from financing activities in notes 11 and 12 of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the application of this amendment did not result in a material change to the Group’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

−

Amendment to IAS 12, Income Taxes (“IAS 12”) - On January 19, 2016, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12. The amendments give guidance that clarify how to account for deferred tax assets related to debt instruments measured at fair value. The amendments were issued in response to diversity in practice and are relevant in circumstances in which the entity reports tax losses. The Group applied this amendment on January 1, 2017 with no change to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

−	IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) - issued on July 24, 2014 is the IASB’s replacement of IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard includes requirements for recognition and measurement, impairment, derecognition and general hedge accounting. The IASB completed its project to replace IAS 39 in phases, adding to the standard as it completed each phase. The version of IFRS 9 issued in 2014 supersedes all previous versions and is mandatorily effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted (subject to local endorsement requirements). IFRS 9 does not replace the requirements for portfolio fair value hedge accounting for interest rate risk (often referred to as the “macro hedge accounting” requirements) since this phase of the project was separated from the IFRS 9 project due to the longer term nature of the macro hedging project which is currently at the discussion paper phase of the due process. The Group has not yet determined the effect of adoption of IFRS 9 on its consolidated financial statements.
−	IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”) - in May 2014, the IASB issued this standard which is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and is to be applied retrospectively. IFRS 15 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively (i.e. service revenue and contract modifications) and improve guidance for multiple-element arrangements. The Group intends to adopt IFRS 15 in its financial statements for the annual period beginning January 1, 2018. The Group has not yet determined the full effect of adoption of IFRS 15 on its consolidated financial statements, however, we expect the Group’s deferred revenue balance associated with stream transactions will be adjusted to reflect a significant financing component.
−	IFRS 16, Leases (“IFRS 16”) - in January 2016, the IASB issued this standard which is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, which replaces the current guidance in IAS 17, Leases (“IAS 17”), and is to be applied either retrospectively or a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted, but only in conjunction with IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under IAS 17, lessees were required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on balance sheet) and an operating lease (off balance sheet). IFRS 16 now requires lessees to recognize a lease liability reflective of future lease payments and a “right-of-use asset” for virtually all lease contracts. The Group has not yet determined the effect of adoption of IFRS 16 on its consolidated financial statements.

− IFRIC Interpretation 22, Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration (“IFRIC 22”) - IFRIC 22 provides requirements about which exchange rate to use in reporting foreign currency transactions (such as revenue transactions) when payment is made or received in advance. The Interpretations Committee concluded that the exchange rate should be the rate used to initially measure the non- monetary asset (prepaid asset) or liability (deferred credit) when the advance was made. If there were multiple advances, each receipt or payment would be measured at the date the non-monetary asset or liability is recognized. This interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Group has not yet determined the effect of adoption of IFRIC 22 on its consolidated financial statements.

The Group has entered into equipment leases for its South American and Manitoba business units which expire between 2021 and 2022 and with interest rates between 1.95 to 4.45%, per annum. The Group has the option to purchase the equipment and vehicles leased at the end of the terms of the leases. The Group’s obligations under finance leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. The present value of the net minimum lease payments has been recognized as a finance lease asset, which was included as a non-cash addition to property plant and equipment, and a corresponding amount as a finance lease obligation. The fair value of the finance lease liabilities approximates their carrying amount.

During the third quarter of 2017, the Peru business unit refinanced its equipment finance facility (note 12b) by entering into a sale and leaseback transaction with terms as described above. The transaction resulted in cash proceeds of $67,275, the majority of which was used to repay and extinguish the equipment finance facility. As the leaseback is classified as a finance lease, there was no change in the carrying value of the heavy mobile equipment and no impacts to the income statements.

1	Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.
2	Excludes embedded provisional pricing derivatives, as well as tax and other statutory amounts.
3	Derivatives and embedded provisional pricing derivatives are carried at their fair value, which is determined based on internal valuation models that reflect observable forward market commodity prices, currency exchange rates, and discount factors based on market US dollar interest rates adjusted for credit risk. For the warrant and option liabilities, fair value is determined based on quoted market closing price or the Black-Scholes model.
4	Available-for-sale investments are carried at their fair value, which is determined using quoted market bid prices in active markets for listed shares and determined using valuation models for shares of private companies. Investments at FVTPL consist of warrants to purchase listed shares, which are carried at fair value as determined using available market closing prices.
5	These financial liabilities relate to agreements with communities near the Constancia operation in Peru 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. Fair values have been determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on expected cash flows and a credit adjusted discount rate.
6	Fair value of the senior unsecured notes (note 12) has been determined using the quoted market price at the period end.
7	Fair value of the prepayment option embedded derivative related to the long-term debt has been determined using a binomial tree/lattice approach based on the Hull-White single factor interest rate term structure model.
8	The carrying value of the facilities approximates the fair value as the facilities are based on floating interest rates.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below provides an analysis by valuation method of financial instruments that are measured at fair value subsequent to recognition. 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.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

The Group's Level 3 investment relates to a minority investment in an unlisted junior mining company. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Group concluded that the value of the investment was unlikely to be recoverable and revalued the investment to zero.

The Group’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, 2017, the Group did not make any transfers.

(b) Derivatives and hedging:

	Copper fixed for floating swaps
	Hudbay enters into copper fixed for floating swaps in order to manage the risk associated with provisional pricing terms in copper concentrate sales agreements. As at September 30, 2017, the Group had 34,000 tonnes of net copper swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $2.88/lb and settling across October 2017 and January 2018. At December 31, 2016, the Group had 41,000 tonnes of copper fixed for floating swaps outstanding at an average fixed receivable price $2.42/lb, which settle across February to June 2017. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at September 30, 2017 was a liability position of - $4,195 (December 31, 2016 a liability position of $8,657).
	Non-hedge derivative gold and silver contracts
	From time to time, the Group enters into gold and silver forward sales contracts to hedge the commodity price risk associated with the future settlement of provisionally priced deliveries. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 the Group held no gold or silver forward sales contracts.
	Non-hedge derivative zinc contracts
	Hudbay enters into fixed price sales contracts with zinc customers and, to ensure that the Group continues to receive a floating or unhedged realized zinc price, Hudbay enters into forward zinc purchase contracts that effectively offset the fixed price sales contracts. At September 30, 2017, the Group held contracts for forward zinc purchased of 3,585 tonnes (December 31, 2016 – 2,644 tonnes) that related to forward customer sales of zinc. Prices range from $2,469 to $3,144 per tonne (December 31, 2016 – $1,514 to $2,783) and settlement dates extend to May 2018. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at September 30, 2017 was a net asset position of $1,658 (December 31, 2016 – a net asset position of $1,373).
(c)	Embedded derivatives
	Provisional pricing embedded derivatives
	The Group records embedded derivatives 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.

(in thousands of US dollars, except where otherwise noted)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

	Provisional pricing embedded derivatives 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 cost of sales for purchase concentrate contracts. Cash flows related to provisional pricing embedded derivatives are classified in operating activities.
	As at September 30, 2017, the Group’s net position consisted of contracts awaiting final pricing for sales of 37,085 tonnes of copper (December 31, 2016 – 32,750 tonnes). As of September 30, 2017, there are also 3,133 tonnes of zinc ((December 31, 2016 – nil tonnes) awaiting final pricing. In addition, at September 30, 2017, the Group’s net position consisted of contracts awaiting final pricing for sales of 20,140 ounces of gold and 151,626 ounces of silver (December 31, 2016 – 13,827 ounces of gold and 116,912 ounces of silver).
	As at September 30, 2017, the Group’s provisionally priced copper, zinc, gold and silver sales subject to final settlement were recorded at average prices of $2.94/lb (December 31, 2016 – $2.51/lb), $1.44/oz (December 31, 2016 – nil contracts), $1,283/oz (December 31, 2016 – $1,151/oz) and $16.64/oz (December 31, 2016 – $15.96/oz), respectively.
	The aggregate fair value of the copper and zinc embedded derivatives within the copper and zinc concentrate sales contracts at September 30, 2017, was an asset position of $4,287 (December 31, 2016 – an asset position of $12,538). The aggregate fair value of other embedded derivatives at September 30, 2017, was a liability position of $939 (December 31, 2016 – a liability position of $86).
	Prepayment option embedded derivative
	The senior unsecured notes (note 12) contain prepayment options, which represent embedded derivatives that require bifurcation from the host contract. The prepayment options are measured at fair value, with changes in the fair value being recognized as unrealized gains or losses in finance income and expense (note 5e). The fair value of the embedded derivative at September 30, 2017 was an asset of $4,702 (December 31, 2016 - an asset of $4,430).
(d)	Restricted cash
	The South American business unit has $71,932 in letters of credit issued under the Peru facility to support its reclamation obligations. The Manitoba business unit has $57,089 in letters of credit issued under the Canada facility to support its reclamation and pension obligations. Given that these letters of credit are issued under the revolving credit facilities, no cash collateral is required to be posted.
	Hudbay currently has a restricted cash balance of $205, which consists of cash collateral posted to secure Hudbay Peru letters of credit issued to support certain financial obligations.
(e)	Warrants and option liabilities
	A total of 22,391,490 warrants were issued as a result of the acquisition of Hudbay Arizona which entitle the holder to acquire a common share of the Company at a price of C$15.00 per share on, but not prior to, July 20, 2018. The Company, may, at its option, upon written notice to the warrant holders, settle the exercise of warrants for the in-the-money value, in cash, shares or a combination thereof.
	The purchase price of the acquisition of New Britannia Mine and Mill contained an option (European) that pays the seller $5,000 if the price of gold is equal to or above $1,400/oz on May 4, 2018.

−	Remeasurements of the Group's decommissioning and restoration liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 led to a net increase in related property, plant and equipment assets of $4,404 (nine months ended September 30, 2016 - $26,864) as a result of declines in discount rates and increased mine activity footprints and the resulting higher disturbance.
−	Property, plant and equipment included $6,589 of net additions related to capital additions under finance lease (September 30, 2016 - $12,985).
−	During the third quarter of 2017, the Peru business unit completed the sale of some heavy mobile equipment and then executed a finance lease to leaseback that same equipment. The transaction resulted in cash proceeds of $67,275. Given that the classification of the leaseback as a finance lease, there was no change in the carrying value of the heavy mobile equipment and no impacts to the statements of income.

SUMMARY

Net profit and earnings per share in the third quarter of 2017 were $40.9 million and $0.17, respectively, compared to a net profit and earnings per share of $33.6 million and $0.14, respectively, in the third quarter of 2016.

In the third quarter of 2017, cash generated from operating activities was $167.9 million, up from $95.9 million in the same period of 2016. Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital increased to $153.9 million in the third quarter of 2017 from $124.2 million in the same quarter of 2016. The increase in net profit and operating cash flow is the result of growth in sales volumes of zinc and gold and higher realized copper and zinc prices, partially offset by decreases in the sales volumes of copper.

Net profit and earnings per share in the third quarter of 2017 were affected by, among other things, the following items:

(in $ millions, except per share amounts)	Pre-tax	After-tax	Per share
	gain (loss)	gain (loss)	gain (loss)
Foreign exchange loss	(6.5)	(6.0)	(0.02)
Mark-to-market adjustments of various items	(9.4)	(8.4)	(0.04)
Transaction costs written-off due to debt refinancing	(3.6)	(2.4)	(0.01)
Recovery for damages during commissioning of Constancia mill	4.2	2.7	0.01
Non-cash deferred tax adjustments	-	4.2	0.02

Compared to the same quarter of 2016, production of zinc in concentrate increased as a result of higher zinc grades in Manitoba, while copper production declined due to expected lower copper grades in Peru.

In the third quarter of 2017, consolidated cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, was $0.86, a decrease compared to $0.91 in the same period last year¹. Incorporating sustaining capital, capitalized exploration, royalties and corporate selling and administrative expenses, consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 was $1.64, up from $1.46 in the third quarter of 2016¹. The increase in all-in sustaining cash cost was driven by higher planned sustaining capital expenditures in Peru and lower copper production compared to the third quarter of 2016.

¹ Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, and net debt are not recognized under IFRS. For more detail on this non-IFRS financial performance measure, please see the discussion under "Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures" beginning on page 29 of this MD&A.

Net debt¹ declined by $300.2 million from June 30, 2017 to $649.6 million at September 30, 2017, as a result of cash flow from our operations and $187.4 million of net proceeds from an equity issuance. At September 30, 2017, total liquidity including cash and available credit facilities was $749.9 million, up from $496.8 million at June 30, 2017.

We are on track to meet previously issued 2017 guidance for production and capital costs in both Peru and Manitoba. Unit operating costs in Peru have declined and are tracking within the guidance range for 2017; however, Manitoba unit costs are expected to be moderately higher than 2017 guidance levels.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Rosemont Developments

Work continues with the U.S. Forest Service on the draft Mine Plan of Operations, which is progressing as planned. The remaining key federal permit outstanding is the Section 404 Water Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

On September 25, 2017, an opponent of the Rosemont project filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Forest Service challenging, among other things, the issuance of the Final Record of Decision in respect of Rosemont. This lawsuit is one of many challenges against the Rosemont permitting process and Hudbay is confident the permits will be upheld.

Common Equity Issuance

On September 27, 2017, we completed an equity offering of 24,000,000 common shares of the company at a price of C$10.10 per share, for gross proceeds of C$242.4 million ($195.3 million).

We intend to use the net proceeds of the offering to advance our current growth projects, enhance our financial flexibility to pursue other growth opportunities, reduce debt and for general corporate purposes.

¹Reflects combined mine and mill costs per tonne of ore milled. Peru operations combined mine and mill unit costs include G&A, and reflects the deduction of expected capitalized stripping costs and excludes costs.

Ore mined at our Constancia mine during the third quarter of 2017 increased by 18% compared to the same period in 2016 as we continue to increase stockpiles to improve our ability to blend ore at the processing plant. As expected, milled copper grades in the third quarter were approximately 21% lower than the same period in 2016 as we entered lower grade phases of the mine plan. Mill throughput improved 14% due to increased plant availability as well as plant optimization initiatives during the third quarter of 2017.

Recoveries of copper, gold and silver were lower in the third quarter of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to expected lower head grades and normal ore type variability. Optimization in process recoveries continues to be implemented and evaluated along with consistent positive grade reconciliations.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the third quarter of 2017 were 14% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of increased throughput and lower operating costs.

Combined unit operating costs in Peru are expected to be within the guidance range for 2017.

¹ Precious metals production includes gold and silver production on a gold-equivalent basis. Silver is converted to gold at a ratio of 70:1.

Production of copper, gold and silver in the third quarter of 2017 was lower than the same period in 2016 due to an expected decline in mined grades, while production increased from the second to third quarter of 2017 as a result of improved mill throughput. Production in Peru is expected to be within guidance ranges for 2017.

Ore mined at our Manitoba operations during the third quarter of 2017 was consistent with ore mined in the same period in 2016. Increased production at our Lalor and Reed mines was partially offset by decreased production at our 777 mine. Overall, copper, zinc, gold and silver grades were 3%, 20%, 9% and 10% higher, respectively, in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period of 2016. Grade variances were due to planned stope sequencing, including the re-sequencing of the 777 mine plan to prioritize higher grade zinc stopes in 2017. Unit operating costs for all Manitoba mines for the third quarter of 2017 increased by 33% compared to the same period in 2016.

9

We ceased capitalizing Reed development costs in the third quarter of 2017 as a result of the mine’s expected closure in the third quarter of 2018, resulting in higher Reed unit operating costs compared to prior periods. The 777 mine experienced a plugged paste backfill line at the start of the third quarter of 2017, which has since been restored; however the lack of paste backfill reduced the number of production stopes in the quarter, and 777 costs were affected by cleaning and re-drilling of backfill holes and the cost of cemented rock fill to mitigate the lack of paste. The impact on production rates is expected to continue to the fourth quarter of 2017, with the mine expected to return to normal production rates and expected costs towards the end of the year.

Consistent with our revised mine plan, Lalor’s unit costs reflect increased cement rock filling costs as well as substantial operating and capital development work that was undertaken to increase Lalor’s production rate to 4,500 tonnes per day. The strong ramp up of ore production from the Lalor mine in 2017 has resulted in the accumulation of an ore stockpile as Lalor’s mine production has exceeded the Stall concentrator’s current milling capacity. With intention to take advantage of higher metal prices and increase our revenues at a slightly higher unit cost, ore will be trucked to the Flin Flon mill for processing for the remainder of the year.

Year-to-date ore mined at our Manitoba operations was 1% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of lower production at our 777 mine partially offset by higher production at our Reed and Lalor mines. Year-to-date copper grades in 2017 were lower than the same period in 2016 by 6%, while zinc, gold and silver grades were 32%, 2%, and 12% higher, respectively, which is in line with mine plan expectations. Year-to-date total mine unit costs were 26% higher than the same period in 2016 as a result of the same factors that impacted third quarter total mine unit costs.

¹ Reflects combined mine, mill and G&A costs per tonne of milled ore. Includes the cost of ore purchased from our joint venture partner at Reed mine.

Ore processed in Flin Flon in the third quarter of 2017 was 10% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of lower production at our 777 mine, which was partially offset by processing 63,936 tonnes of ore from our Lalor mine. Copper recovery in the third quarter of 2017 was consistent with the same period in 2016, while zinc, gold, and silver recoveries were 6%, 7%, and 8% higher, respectively, due to higher head grades. Unit operating costs at the Flin Flon concentrator were 20% lower in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of lower maintenance expenditures. Ore processed and recoveries at the Stall concentrator in the third quarter of 2017 were consistent with the same period in 2016. Unit operating costs at the Stall concentrator were 12% higher in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of higher maintenance expenditures.

Ore processed year-to-date in 2017 in Flin Flon was 8% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of lower production at our 777 mine. Year-to-date recoveries of copper, gold, and silver, were fairly consistent with the same period in 2016, while zinc recovery was 7% higher due to higher zinc head grades. Year-to-date unit operating costs at the Flin Flon concentrator were 3% higher than the same period in 2016 as a result of lower production as well as higher maintenance costs in the first half of 2017. Ore processed year-to-date and recoveries for all metals in 2017 at the Stall concentrator were consistent with the same period in 2016. Year-to-date unit operating costs at the Stall concentrator were 33% higher than the same period in 2016 as a result of higher maintenance expenditures and the use of higher-cost temporary crushing facilities primarily during the first quarter. Manitoba combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the third quarter and year-to-date in 2017 were 30%, and 27% higher, respectively, than in the same periods in 2016 due to the factors described above as well as higher 777, Reed and Lalor unit costs due to the factors described under “Mines”, above. In addition, the stockpiling of Lalor ore described above increases combined mine/mill unit costs as that metric is expressed as total costs during the period (irrespective of inventory changes), divided by the tonnes of ore milled. This factor should reverse as stockpiles reduce, although future costs will be affected by higher Reed mine unit costs as the capitalization of development costs has ceased, and additional costs will be incurred to truck Lalor ore to the Flin Flon mill. Processing the additional Lalor production in Flin Flon is expected to drive economies of scale and additional revenues through a faster ramp up.

As a result of all of these factors, Manitoba combined unit operating costs for the full year 2017 are expected to be moderately higher than the guidance range of C$88 – C$108 per tonne.

Production of cast zinc in the third quarter of 2017 was 3% lower compared to the same period in 2016 and operating costs per pound of zinc metal produced were 5% higher as a result of lower production. Year-to-date production in 2017 was 9% higher compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of higher amperages in the zinc plant cell house due to improvements made in the operation of the cooling towers during the hotter summer months. Operating costs per pound of zinc metal produced year-to-date were 7% lower compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of increased production. Refined zinc metal production and zinc plant unit operating costs are expected to be within guidance ranges for 2017.

¹ Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of copper & zinc produced, net of by-product credits, are not recognized under IFRS. For more detail on this non-IFRS financial performance measure, please see the discussion under "Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures" beginning on page 29 of this MD&A.

In Manitoba, cash cost, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 was negative $0.20 per pound of copper produced compared to $0.18 in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease is primarily a result of significantly increased by-product credits for all metals, which were partially offset by expected higher costs at our 777 and Reed mines during this part of their mine life. Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 decreased to $0.59 per pound of copper produced compared to $0.69 in the third quarter of 2016 as a result of the same factors described above which were partially offset by planned increased capital spending. On a year-to-date basis, the declines in cash cost, net of by-product credits and sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, were the result of the same factors impacting third quarter results.

Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of zinc produced, net of by-product credits, was lower compared to the same period last year as a result of increased zinc production, and higher grades realized with the revised 777 mine plan, partially offset by the higher mining costs associated with the 777 and Reed mine at this stage of their mine lives.

Due to increased Lalor mine throughput and higher zinc grades at 777, zinc concentrate production is exceeding the processing capacity of the Flin Flon zinc plant. As a result, sales of excess zinc concentrate inventory began in the second quarter of 2017 and will continue as long as concentrate production exceeds zinc plant processing capacity.

Revenue

Revenue for the third quarter of 2017 was $370.4 million, $58.9 million higher than the same period in 2016, primarily as a result of higher metal prices for copper and zinc, and higher gold and zinc sales volumes, partially offset by lower copper sales volumes.

Year-to-date revenue was $948.4 million, $136.4 million higher than the same period in 2016, due to significantly higher realized sales prices for copper and zinc metals, and lower treatment and refining charges, partially offset by lower copper sales volumes.

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, gold and silver we may enter into non-hedge derivatives (“QP hedges”) which are intended to manage the provisional pricing risk arising from quotational period terms in concentrate sales agreements. The QP hedges are not removed from the calculation of realized prices. We expect that gains and losses on QP hedges will offset provisional pricing adjustments on concentrate sales contracts.

Our realized prices for the third quarter and year-to-date in 2017 and 2016, respectively, are summarized below:

¹ Realized prices exclude refining and treatment charges and are on the sale of finished metal or metal in concentrate. Realized prices include the effect of provisional pricing adjustments on prior period sales.
² London Metal Exchange average for copper and zinc prices.
³ This amount includes a realized sales price of $1.37 for cast zinc metal and $1.42 for zinc concentrate sold for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Zinc realized prices include premiums paid by customers for delivery of refined zinc metal, but exclude unrealized gains and losses related to non-hedge derivative contracts that are included in zinc revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the unrealized component of the zinc derivative resulted in a gain of $0.01/lb. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the unrealized component of the zinc derivative resulted in a gain of $0.01/lb.
⁴ Sales of gold and silver from our 777 and Constancia mines are subject to our precious metals stream agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals, pursuant to which we recognize deferred revenue for precious metals deliveries and also receive cash payments. Stream sales are included within realized prices and their respective deferred revenue and cash payment rates can be found on page 20.

Cost of sales	259,391		242,965		710,317		667,351

Total cost of sales for the third quarter of 2017 was $259.4 million, reflecting an increase of $16.4 million from the third quarter of 2016. Cost of sales related to Peru was $8.1 million lower primarily due to lower depreciation. In Manitoba, cost of sales increased by $24.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2016 as a result of higher mining, freight and profit sharing costs.

Cost of sales year-to-date in 2017 was $710.3 million, an increase of $43.0 million compared to 2016. The increase is mostly attributable to Manitoba which had higher year-to-date costs of $53.8 million compared to the same period last year due to the reasons outlined above and additional costs due to utilization of temporary crushing facilities at the Stall mill primarily during the first quarter.

For details on unit operating costs refer to the respective tables in the “Operations Review” section beginning on page 6 of this MD&A.

For the third quarter of 2017, other significant variances in expenses from operations, compared to the same period in 2016, include the following:

− Selling and administrative expenses increased by $5.1 million, which was mainly the result of increased share based compensation expenses resulting from the revaluation of previously issued share units to higher share prices during the current quarter compared to the same period last year.

21

−	Exploration and evaluation expenses increased by $5.3 million mainly as a result of mineral property farm-in agreement with Amarc Resources Ltd. that was entered into in July 2017. Under the terms of the agreement, Hudbay may acquire, through a staged investment process, up to a 60% ownership interest in Amarc's IKE copper porphyry district, located near Gold Bridge, British Columbia.
−	Other operating income increased by $4.2 million mainly as a result of a recovery from damages incurred pertaining to the Constancia grinding line 2 failure in 2015.
−	Finance expenses decreased by $2.0 million mainly as a result of lower interest costs on our senior unsecured notes after we completed our refinancing in December 2016. In addition, there were lower interest costs realized on our senior secured revolving credit facilities (the “Credit Facilities”), which was a function of reduced outstanding amounts on these Credit Facilities compared to the same period last year.
−	Other finance expenses increased by $21.5 million primarily as a result of:

−	Foreign exchange losses of $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared to losses of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2016;
−	Disposals, impairment and mark-to-market adjustments on held for trading and available-for-sale investments resulted in a net loss of $1.6 million during the current period of 2017 compared to a gain of $0.1 million during the same period last year;
−	Fair value adjustments pertaining to the embedded derivative on the senior unsecured notes, our gold option liability related to the acquisition of the New Britannia mine and mill (“NBM Mill”) and an embedded derivative pertaining to purchase contracts resulted in a loss of $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared to gains of $7.7 million in the third quarter of 2016; and
−	Mark-to-market losses on warrants of $2.0 million compared to a gain of $2.8 million in the same period last year.

For 2017 year-to-date, other significant variances in expenses from operations, compared to 2016 year-to-date, include the following:

−	The increase in selling and administrative expenses of $2.9 million and the increase in exploration and evaluation expenses of $6.8 million was generally caused by the same factors as previously mentioned for the quarterly movement.
−	The increase in other operating income of $13.7 million during the 2017 year-to-date period compared to same year-to-date period last year was primarily the result of various recoveries pertaining to the Constancia grinding line 2 failure in 2015.
−	Finance expenses decreased by $9.1 million mainly as a result of lower interest costs on our senior unsecured notes after we completed our refinancing in December 2016. In addition, there were lower interest costs realized on our Credit Facilities, which was a function of reduced outstanding amounts on these Credit Facilities compared to the same period last year.

22

− Other finance expenses increased by $25.0 million primarily as a result of:

−	Foreign exchange losses of $14.5 million in 2017 year-to-date compared to losses of $0.7 million in the same period in 2016;
−	Disposals, impairment and mark-to-market adjustments on held for trading and available-for-sale investments resulted in a net loss of $1.8 million during the current period of 2017 compared to a gain of $1.3 million during the same period last year;
−	Fair value adjustments pertaining to the embedded derivative on the senior unsecured notes, our gold option liability related to the acquisition of the New Britannia mine and mill and an embedded derivative pertaining to purchase contracts resulted in a loss of $1.3 million in the current year-to-date period compared to gains of $6.6 million in the comparable period in 2016; and
−	Mark-to-market adjustments on warrants resulted in a gain of $1.8 million compared to a gain of $2.0 million in the same period last year.

Tax Expense (Recovery)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, tax expense increased by $9.3 million and $29.4 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2016. The following table provides further details:

	Three months ended				Nine months ended

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

Income Tax Expense

Applying the estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate of 27.0% to our income before taxes of $113.2 million for the year-to-date period in 2017 would have resulted in a tax expense of approximately $30.6 million; however, we recorded an income tax expense of $37.8 million. The significant items causing our effective income tax rate to be different than the 27.0% estimated Canadian statutory income tax rate include:

−	Certain deductible temporary differences with respect to Peru mostly relating to decommissioning and restoration liabilities were not recognized as we have determined that it is not probable that we will realize the recovery based on the timing of the reversals of the deductible temporary differences and the future projected taxable profit of the Peru operations, resulting in an increase in deferred tax expense of approximately $8.3 million (2016 year-to-date - $5.7 million);
−	Certain deductible temporary differences with respect to Manitoba mostly relating to decommissioning and restoration liabilities were not recognized as we have determined that it is not probable that we will realize the recovery based on the timing of the reversals of the deductible temporary differences and the future projected taxable profit of the Manitoba operations, adjusted for the average annual effective rate methodology, resulting in an increase in deferred tax expense of approximately $2.8 million (2016 year-to-date - $3.1 million);
−	Certain deductible temporary differences with respect to our foreign operations are recorded using an income tax rate other than the Canadian statutory income tax of 27.0%, resulting in an increase in deferred tax expense of $2.5 million (2016 year-to-date – decrease $1.3 million); and

23

− A decrease in the deferred tax expense of $7.8 million (2016 year-to-date - $2.6 million) due to the fact that certain Canadian non-monetary assets are recognized at historical cost while the tax bases of the assets change as exchange rates fluctuate, which gives rise to taxable temporary differences.

Mining Tax Expense

Applying the estimated Manitoba mining tax rate of 10.0% to our income before taxes of $113.2 million for the year-to-date period in 2017, would have resulted in a tax expense of approximately $11.3 million and we recorded a mining tax expense of $11.2 million (2016 – $5.0 million). Effective mining tax rates can vary significantly based on the composition of our earnings and the expected amount of mining taxable profits. Corporate costs and other costs not related to mining operations are not deductible in computing mining profits. A brief description of how mining taxes are calculated in our various business units is discussed below.

Manitoba

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

−	10% of total mining taxable profit if mining profit is C$50 million or less;
−	15% of total mining taxable profit if mining profits are between C$55 million and C$100 million; and
−	17% of total mining taxable profit if mining profits exceed C$105 million.

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

Peru

The Peruvian government imposes two parallel mining tax regimes, the Special Mining Tax and the Modified Royalty, on companies' operating mining income on a sliding scale, with progressive rates ranging from 2.0% to 8.4% and 1.0% to 12.0%, respectively. Based on financial forecasts, we have recorded a deferred tax liability as at September 30, 2017 at the tax rate we expect to apply when temporary differences reverse.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Senior Unsecured Notes Refinancing

On December 12, 2016, we completed an offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes in two series: (i) a series of 7.250% senior notes due 2023 in an aggregate principal amount of $400 million and (ii) a series of 7.625% senior notes due 2025 in an aggregate principal amount of $600 million. The proceeds from this offering were used to redeem all US$920 million of our 9.50% senior unsecured notes due 2020.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities

As at September 30, 2017, between our Credit Facilities we have drawn $129.0 million in letters of credit, leaving total undrawn availability of $421.0 million. As at September 30, 2017, we were in compliance with our covenants under the Credit Facilities.

The Credit Facilities were amended on July 14, 2017 to secure both facilities with substantially all of our assets other than assets related to the Rosemont project, amend the financial covenants, extend the maturity dates from March 31, 2019 to July 14, 2021 and reduce the interest rate from LIBOR plus 4.50% to LIBOR plus 3.00%, based on financial results for the twelve months ended June 30, 2017. The revised covenants include maintaining gross total debt to EBITDA of less than 4.00 times in 2017, senior secured debt to EBITDA of less than 2.00 times, and interest coverage of more than 3.00 times.

24

Equipment Finance Facility

As at September 30, 2017, we had no amounts owing under the facility. The facility was repaid in full and extinguished during the third quarter of 2017 with the proceeds of a sale and leaseback transaction.

Financial Condition

Financial Condition as at September 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $182.1 million from December 31, 2016 to $328.9 million as at September 30, 2017. This increase was a result of cash generated from operating activities of $410.1 million, net proceeds from an equity issuance of $187.4 million, and gross proceeds from a sale and leaseback equipment refinancing of $67.3 million. These inflows were partly offset by $161.7 million of capital investments primarily at our Peru and Manitoba operations, debt repayments of $256.4 million and interest payments of $52.7 million. We hold the majority of our cash and cash equivalents in low-risk, liquid investments with major Canadian and Peruvian financial institutions.

Working capital increased by $124.8 million to $246.3 million from December 31, 2016 to September 30, 2017. In addition to the increased cash and cash equivalents position:

−	Current inventories increased by $29.8 million;
−	Trade and other payables increased by $33.3 million primarily as a result of the timing of capital spending resulting in higher trade payables at September 30 2017; and
−	Trade Receivables decreased by $40.6 million, mainly due to increasing payments received related to Peruvian sales tax;

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the three months and three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016:

	Three months ended				Nine months ended

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash generated from operating activities was $167.9 million during the third quarter of 2017, an increase of $72.0 million compared with the same period last year. Operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital was $153.9 million during the third quarter of 2017, reflecting an increase of $29.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2016. Operating cash flow benefited from higher overall realized copper and zinc sales prices and higher gold and zinc sales volumes compared to the third quarter of 2016.

Year-to-date cash generated from operating activities was $410.1 million in 2017, an increase of $75.2 million compared to 2016. Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital were $358.7 million, an increase of $93.1 million compared to the same year-to-date period in 2016. Operating cash flow benefited from the same factors mentioned above for the quarter.

Cash Flow from Investing and Financing Activities

During the third quarter of 2017, we generated $7.9 million in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by $187.4 million of net proceeds from an equity issuance, $67.3 million of cash inflows resulting from Hudbay Peru’s sale and leaseback of certain equipment and a $25.0 million advance under our senior secured credit facility, offset by the repayment of $104.1 million in principal on our senior secured credit facilities, capital expenditures of $67.7 million, repayment of $46.1 million under our equipment financing facility and $36.9 million of interest paid on long term debt.

Year-to-date, we used $229.8 million of cash in investing and financing activities, primarily driven by net principal repayments on our debt borrowings of $256.4 million, capital expenditures of $161.7 million and interest paid of $52.7 million, partially offset by $187.4 million of net proceeds from an equity issuance and $67.3 million of gross proceeds from a sale and leaseback transaction.

¹ Sustaining capital expenditure guidance excludes capitalized interest.
² Other capitalized costs include decommissioning and restoration adjustments.

Sustaining capital expenditures in Manitoba for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $15.7 million and $39.0 million, respectively, an increase of $6.6 million and a decrease of $8.8 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2016. The increase in Manitoba sustaining capital expenditures in the third quarter for 2017 compared to the same period last year is due to spending for the tailings management infrastructure. The decrease on a year-to-date basis is primarily due to decreases in capitalized underground mine development.

Sustaining capital expenditures in Peru for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $40.2 million and $93.6 million, respectively, an increase of $5.0 million and $7.3 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2016. The increase is mainly the result of higher capital costs for tailings impoundment construction.

27

Capital Commitments

As at September 30, 2017, we had outstanding capital commitments in Canada of approximately $23.0 million primarily related to committed long-lead orders for the paste plant, of which approximately $3.1 million cannot be terminated by Hudbay; approximately $42.6 million in Peru related to sustaining capital costs, of which all can be terminated by Hudbay; and approximately $160.8 million in Arizona, primarily related to the Rosemont project and expected to be paid after the commencement of Rosemont construction, of which approximately $77.3 million cannot be terminated by Hudbay.

Liquidity

As at September 30, 2017, we had total liquidity of approximately $749.9 million, including $328.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, as well as $421.0 million in availability under our Credit Facilities. We expect that our current liquidity and future cash flows will be sufficient to meet our obligations in the coming year.

¹ Operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital

Copper and zinc prices increased during the third quarter of 2017, a key factor in the improvement in revenue, gross profit and operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital experienced in the quarter compared to prior quarters.

Revenue and operating cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital have been stable from the third quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2017, with the exception of the first quarter of 2017, which was affected by lower production due to planned and unplanned maintenance activities at our operations.

We incurred a $47.7 million call premium during the fourth quarter of 2016 to facilitate the early redemption of the previously outstanding $920 million notes, which affected profit in that period.

Results for the first and second quarters of 2016 reflected a cyclical low in copper prices, offset in part by cost containment initiatives.

For information on previous trends and quarterly reviews, refer to our MD&A dated August 3, 2017.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Net debt is shown because it is a performance measure used by the Company to assess our financial position. Cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced are shown because we believe they help investors and management assess the performance of our operations, including the margin generated by the operations and the company. Cash cost and sustaining cash cost per pound of zinc produced are shown because we believe they help investors and management assess the performance of our Manitoba operations. 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.

29

Net Debt

The following table presents our calculation of net debt as at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	Sep. 30,		Dec. 31,
(in $ thousands)	2017		2016
Total long-term debt	978,494		1,232,164
Cash and cash equivalents	(328,927	)	(146,864	)
Net debt	649,567		1,085,300

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

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

−	Cash cost, before by-product credits - This measure is gross of by-product revenues and is a function of the efforts and costs incurred to mine and process all ore mined. However, the measure divides this aggregate cost over only pounds of copper produced, our primary metal of production. This measure is generally less volatile from period to period, as it is not affected by changes in the price received for by-product metals. It is, however, significantly affected by the relative mix of copper concentrate and finished zinc production, where the sale of the zinc will occur later, and an increase in production of zinc metal will tend to result in an increase in cash cost under this measure.
−	Cash cost, net of by-product credits - In order to calculate the net cost to produce and sell copper, the net of by-product credits measure subtracts the revenues realized from the sale of the metals other than copper. The by-product revenues from zinc, gold, and silver are significant and are integral to the economics of our operations. The economics that support our decision to produce and sell copper would be different if we did not receive revenues from the other significant metals being extracted and processed. This measure provides management and investors with an indication of the minimum copper price consistent with positive operating cash flow and operating margins, assuming realized by-product metal prices are consistent with those prevailing during the reporting period. It also serves as an important operating statistic that management and investors utilize to measure our operating performance versus that of our competitors. However, it is important to understand that if by-product metal prices decline alongside copper prices, the cash cost net of by-product credits would increase, requiring a higher copper price than that reported to maintain positive cash flows and operating margins.
−	Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits - This measure is an extension of cash cost that includes sustaining capital expenditures, capitalized exploration and net smelter returns royalties. 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. 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 and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Cash cost, net of by-product credits may not calculate exactly based on amounts presented in the tables below due to rounding.

Zinc Cash Cost and Zinc Sustaining Cash Cost

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

−	Zinc 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 zinc produced, our primary metal of production. This measure is generally less volatile from period to period, as it is not affected by changes in the price received for by-product metals. It is, however, significantly affected by the relative mix of copper concentrate and finished zinc production, where the sale of the copper will occur later, and an increase in production of copper metal will tend to result in an increase in zinc cash cost under this measure.
−	Zinc cash cost, net of by-product credits - In order to calculate the net cost to produce and sell zinc, the net of by-product credits measure subtracts the revenues realized from the sale of the metals other than zinc. The by-product revenues from copper, gold, and silver are significant and are integral to the economics of our Manitoba operation. The economics that support our decision to produce and sell zinc would be different if we did not receive revenues from the other significant metals being extracted and processed. This measure provides management and investors with an indication of the minimum zinc price consistent with positive operating cash flow and operating margins, assuming realized by-product metal prices are consistent with those prevailing during the reporting period. It also serves as an important operating statistic that management and investors utilize to measure our operating performance at Manitoba operation versus that of our competitors. However, it is important to understand that if by-product metal prices decline alongside zinc prices, the zinc cash cost net of by-product credits would increase, requiring a higher zinc price than that reported to maintain positive cash flows and operating margins.
−	Zinc sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits - This measure is an extension of zinc cash cost that includes sustaining capital expenditures, capitalized exploration and net smelter returns royalties. It does not include corporate selling and administrative expenses. It provides a more fulsome measurement of the cost of sustaining production than zinc cash cost, which is focused on operating costs only.

The tables below present a detailed build-up of zinc cash cost and zinc sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, for the Manitoba business unit, and reconciliations between zinc cash cost, net of by-product credits, to the most comparable IFRS measures of cost of sales for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Zinc cash cost, net of by-product credits, may not calculate exactly based on amounts presented in the tables below due to rounding.

Hudbay Announces Third Quarter 2017 Results

Toronto, Ontario, November 1, 2017 – Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay” or the “company”) (TSX, NYSE:HBM) today released its third quarter 2017 financial results. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

Summary:

• Operating cash flow¹ of $154 million, a 24% increase from the second quarter 2017

• Consolidated copper production of 40,445 tonnes, essentially unchanged from the second quarter 2017

• Consolidated zinc production of 36,635 tonnes, a 5% increase from the second quarter 2017

• Consolidated cash cost² , net of by-product credits, of $0.86 per pound of copper, a 1% increase from the second quarter 2017

• Consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost² , net of by-product credits, of $1.64 per pound of copper, a 10% increase from the second quarter 2017

• Completed equity offering of 24 million common shares for gross proceeds of C$242 million

• Continued reduction of net debt² to $650 million from June 30, 2017 net debt levels of $950 million

• Fully repaid remaining cash borrowings on senior secured credit facilities; total available liquidity of $750 million, including $329 million in cash, at September 30, 2017

• Peru operations on track to meet production, operating cost and capital cost guidance for 2017

• Manitoba operations on track to meet production guidance for 2017, at moderately higher operating costs relative to guidance

Net profit and earnings per share in the third quarter of 2017 were $40.9 million and $0.17, respectively, compared to a net profit and earnings per share of $33.6 million and $0.14, respectively, in the third quarter of 2016.

In the third quarter of 2017, operating cash flow before change in non-cash working capital increased to $153.9 million from $124.1 million in the second quarter of 2017. The increase in operating cash flow is the result of growth in sales volumes of zinc and gold and higher realized copper and zinc prices, partially offset by decreases in the sales volumes of copper.

“We continued to generate growing positive free cash flow and we significantly reduced our debt balances during the quarter,” said Alan Hair, president and chief executive officer. “We remain committed to delivering on our operating targets and advancing the in-house brownfield opportunities at Lalor and Pampacancha, while continuing to progress the Rosemont project.”

^{__________________________________________________

Net profit and earnings per share in the third quarter of 2017 were affected by, among other things, the following items:

	Pre-tax gain	After-tax gain	Per share
	(loss)	(loss)	gain (loss)
	($ millions)	($ millions)	($/share)

Recovery for damages during commissioning of Constancia mill	4.2	2.7	0.01
Non-cash deferred tax adjustments	-	4.2	0.02

Compared to the same quarter of 2016, production of zinc in concentrate increased as a result of higher zinc grades in Manitoba, while copper production declined due to expected lower copper grades in Peru.

In the third quarter of 2017, consolidated cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, was $0.86, a decrease compared to $0.91 in the same period of last year. Incorporating sustaining capital, capitalized exploration, royalties and corporate selling and administrative expenses, consolidated all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 was $1.64, up from $1.46 in the third quarter of 2016. The increase in all-in sustaining cash cost was driven by higher planned sustaining capital expenditures in Peru and lower copper production compared to the third quarter of 2016.

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $176.3 million in the third quarter to $328.9 million compared to June 30, 2017. This increase was a result of cash generated from operating activities of $167.9 million, net proceeds from an equity issuance of $187.4 million, and gross proceeds from a sale and leaseback equipment refinancing of $67.3 million. These inflows were partly offset by $69.9 million of capital investments primarily at Hudbay’s Peru and Manitoba operations, debt repayments net of borrowings of $125.2 million and interest payments of $36.9 million.

Net debt declined by $300.2 million from June 30, 2017 to $649.6 million at September 30, 2017, as a result of cash flow from Hudbay’s operations and $187.4 million of net proceeds from the equity issuance. At September 30, 2017, total liquidity, including cash and available credit facilities, was $749.9 million, up from $496.8 million at June 30, 2017.

Peru Operations Review

During the third quarter of 2017, the Peru operations produced 30,936 tonnes of copper, which was approximately 4% higher than production in the second quarter of 2017 as a result of improved mill throughput, but lower than production in the same quarter of 2016 due to expected grade decline as per the mine plan. Production in Peru is expected to be within guidance ranges for 2017.

Ore mined at Constancia during the third quarter of 2017 increased by 18% compared to the same period in 2016 as the company continues to increase stockpiles to improve its ability to blend ore at the processing plant. As expected, milled copper grades in the third quarter were approximately 21% lower than the same period in 2016 as Constancia entered lower grade phases of the mine plan. Mill throughput significantly improved due to increased plant availability as well as plant optimization initiatives during the third quarter of 2017.

Recoveries of copper and silver were lower in the third quarter of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016 primarily due to expected lower head grades and normal ore type variability. Optimization in process recoveries continues to be implemented and evaluated along with consistent positive grade reconciliations.

Combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the third quarter of 2017 were 14% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of increased throughput and lower operating costs. Combined unit operating costs in Peru are expected to be within the guidance range for 2017.

Cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $1.19, an increase of 5% from the same period in 2016 mainly as a result of decreased copper grades.

Sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced, net of by-product credits, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $1.80, an increase of 13% from the same period in 2016 as a result of the factors noted above, as well as expected higher sustaining capital expenditures.

Manitoba Operations Review

During the third quarter of 2017, the Manitoba operations produced 36,635 tonnes of zinc, 9,509 tonnes of copper and 28,512 ounces of gold-equivalent precious metals. Production of zinc and precious metals was higher than the same quarter in 2016 by approximately 16% and 5%, respectively, as a result of higher grades at 777 and Lalor as well as higher production at Lalor. Production of copper during the quarter decreased by approximately 8% from the same period in 2016 because of lower production at 777. Due to increased Lalor mine throughput and higher zinc grades at 777, zinc concentrate production is exceeding the processing capacity of the Flin Flon zinc plant. As a result, sales of excess zinc concentrate inventory began in the second quarter of 2017 and will continue as long as concentrate production exceeds zinc plant processing capacity. Production in Manitoba is expected to be within guidance ranges for 2017.

Ore mined at Hudbay’s Manitoba operations during the third quarter of 2017 was consistent with ore mined in the same period in 2016. Increased production at the Lalor and Reed mines was partially offset by decreased production at the 777 mine. Overall, copper, zinc, gold and silver grades were 3%, 20%, 9% and 10% higher, respectively, in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period of 2016. Grade variances were due to planned stope sequencing, including the re-sequencing of the 777 mine plan to prioritize higher grade zinc stopes in 2017.

Unit operating costs for all Manitoba mines for the third quarter of 2017 increased by 33% compared to the same period in 2016. Hudbay ceased capitalizing Reed development costs in the third quarter of 2017 as a result of the mine’s expected closure in the third quarter of 2018, resulting in higher Reed unit operating costs compared to prior periods. The 777 mine experienced a plugged paste backfill line at the start of the third quarter of 2017, which has since been restored; however, the lack of paste backfill reduced the number of production stopes in the quarter, and 777 costs were affected by the cleaning and re-drilling of backfill holes and the cost of cemented rock fill to mitigate the lack of paste. The impact on production rates is expected to continue into the fourth quarter of 2017, with the mine expected to return to normal production rates and expected costs towards the end of the year. Consistent with our revised mine plan, Lalor’s unit costs reflect increased cement rock filling costs as well as substantial operating and capital development work that was undertaken to increase Lalor’s production rate to 4,500 tonnes per day. The strong ramp up of ore production from the Lalor mine in 2017 has resulted in the accumulation of an ore stockpile as Lalor’s mine production has exceeded the Stall concentrator’s current milling capacity. The company intends to take advantage of higher metals prices and increase revenues at a slightly higher unit cost by trucking excess Lalor ore to the Flin Flon mill for processing for the remainder of the year.

Ore processed in Flin Flon in the third quarter of 2017 was 10% lower than the same period in 2016 as a result of lower production at the 777 mine, which was partially offset by processing 63,936 tonnes of ore from the Lalor mine. Copper recovery in the third quarter of 2017 was consistent with the same period in 2016, while zinc, gold, and silver recoveries were 6%, 7%, and 8% higher, respectively, due to higher head grades. Unit operating costs at the Flin Flon concentrator were 20% lower in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of lower maintenance expenditures. Ore processed and recoveries at the Stall concentrator in the third quarter of 2017 were consistent with the same period in 2016. Unit operating costs at the Stall concentrator were 12% higher in the third quarter of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 as a result of higher maintenance expenditures.

Manitoba combined mine, mill and G&A unit operating costs in the third quarter were 30% higher than in the same period in 2016 for the reasons outlined above. In addition, the stockpiling of Lalor ore described above increased combined mine/mill unit costs as that metric is expressed as total costs during the period (irrespective of inventory changes), divided by the tonnes of ore milled. This factor should reverse as stockpiles reduce, although future costs will be affected by higher Reed mine unit costs as the capitalization of development costs has ceased, and additional costs will be incurred to truck Lalor ore to the Flin Flon mill. Processing the additional Lalor production in Flin Flon is expected to drive economies of scale and additional revenues through a faster ramp up. Combined unit operating costs in Manitoba for the full year 2017 are expected to be moderately higher than the guidance range of C$88-108 per tonne.

Cash cost, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 was negative $0.20 per pound of copper produced compared to $0.18 in the third quarter of 2016. The decrease is primarily a result of significantly increased by-product credits for all metals, which were partially offset by expected higher costs at the 777 and Reed mines during this part of their mine lives.

Sustaining cash cost, net of by-product credits, in the third quarter of 2017 decreased to $0.59 per pound of copper produced compared to $0.69 in the third quarter of 2016 as a result of the same factors described above which were partially offset by planned increased capital spending.

Rosemont Developments

Work continues with the U.S. Forest Service on the draft Mine Plan of Operations, which is progressing as planned. The remaining key federal permit outstanding is the Section 404 Water Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

On September 25, 2017, an opponent of the Rosemont project filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Forest Service challenging, among other things, the issuance of the Final Record of Decision in respect of Rosemont. This lawsuit is one of many challenges against the Rosemont permitting process and Hudbay is confident the permits will be upheld.

Equity Issuance

On September 27, 2017, Hudbay completed an equity offering of 24,000,000 common shares at a price of C$10.10 per share, for gross proceeds of C$242.4 million ($195.3 million).

Hudbay intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to advance its current growth projects, enhance its financial flexibility to pursue other growth opportunities, reduce debt and for general corporate purposes.

Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures

Net debt is shown in this news release because it is a performance measure used by the company to assess its financial position. Cash cost, sustaining and all-in sustaining cash cost per pound of copper produced are shown because the company believes they help investors and management assess the performance of its operations, including the margin generated by the operations and the company. 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. For further details on these measures, including reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS measures, please refer to page 29 of Hudbay’s management’s discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
