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, 2022 and 2021

 

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, 2022 and 2021 represent the financial position and the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "Hudbay").

Wholly owned subsidiaries as at September 30, 2022 and 2021 include HudBay Marketing & Sales Inc. ("HMS"), HudBay Peru Inc., HudBay Peru S.A.C. ("Hudbay Peru"), HudBay (BVI) Inc., Hudbay Arizona Inc, Rosemont Copper Company ("Rosemont") and Mason Resources (US) Inc. ("Mason").

Hudbay is an integrated mining company primarily producing copper concentrate (containing copper, gold and silver), silver/gold doré, molybdenum concentrate, zinc concentrate and zinc metal. With assets in North and South America, Hudbay is focused on the discovery, production and marketing of base and precious metals. Directly and through its subsidiaries, Hudbay owns three polymetallic mines, four ore concentrators and a zinc production facility in northern Manitoba and Saskatchewan (Canada) and Cusco (Peru) and copper projects in Arizona and Nevada (United States). Hudbay 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.

2. Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance:

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

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 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 Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements.

The Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements on November 2, 2022.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

(b) Use of judgements and estimates:

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires Hudbay to make judgements, estimates and assumptions, in applying accounting policies that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these judgements, estimates and assumptions. The interim financial statements reflect the judgements and estimates outlined by Hudbay in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, except as noted below.

As a result of the recently released preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") of the Copper World Complex in Arizona, which includes the recently discovered Copper World deposits and the Rosemont deposit, management has assessed which property, plant and equipment assets associated with the previous, stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit, may not be recoverable in the revised two-phase mine plan. In conducting this assessment, significant judgement was required to determine the extent and nature of usefulness of various fixed assets and previously capitalized development costs under the revised mine plan.

(c) Estimation uncertainty:

The Company has assessed the economic impacts of the novel coronavirus pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine on its interim financial statements. As at September 30, 2022, management has determined that the Company's ability to execute its medium and longer term plans and the economic viability of its assets (including the carrying value of its long-lived assets and inventory valuations) are not materially  impacted.

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

3. Reclassification of comparative amounts

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. The Gold prepayment liability (note 13) has been reclassified to its own financial statement line item within the condensed consolidated interim balance sheet due to the size of the balance. The balance was previously included in other financial liabilities. Environmental obligation adjustment (note 17) has been reclassified to its own financial statement line item within the condensed consolidated interim income statements due to the significant increases in these balances. This balance was previously included in other expenses. Evaluation expense has been reclassified and presented within other expenses on the condensed consolidated interim income statement. This balance was previously included within exploration and evaluation expenses as well as other expenses (note 5c). Environmental obligation adjustment was previously included within Other in the operating activities section of the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows and has now been reclassified to its own line within operating activities. Community agreement payments were previously included within acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the investing activities section of the condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows and has now been reclassified to its own line within investing activities. These reclassifications had no effect on the previous reported net loss, cash generated from operating activities and net equity.

4. New standards

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

Amendment to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements

The amendments to IAS 1 promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current or non-current (based on a substantive right to defer settlement). This amendment is in effect January 1, 2024 with early adoption permitted.  The Company has not yet determined the effect of adoption of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.

Consideration from the Company's stream agreements is considered variable (note 16). 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 2022, 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. A variable consideration adjustment was also recorded on September 30, 2022 in Manitoba following a revised forecast for 777 in the third quarter of 2022, which indicated that substantially all of 777's precious metals reserves and inventory levels have been depleted. These variable consideration adjustments resulted in an increase of revenue of $959 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (September 30, 2021 - increase of revenue of $1,617).

(e) Impairment - Arizona

As a result of the released PEA of the Copper World Complex during the second quarter of 2022, which contemplates the mining of the recently discovered Copper World deposits and the Rosemont deposit in a two-phase mine plan, it was determined that certain capitalized costs and assets associated with the previous stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit are no longer recoverable. As a result, during the second quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment loss of $94,956 related to these assets. The impairment loss was determined based on the specific identification of assets that are not expected to be recoverable under the Copper World Complex PEA. The Company presented the impairment losses within the Arizona segment in note 24. The fair value measurements used in the determination of impairment charges are categorized as level 2 based on the degree to which inputs are observable and have a significant effect on the recorded fair value.

(f) Impairment - Environmental Obligation

During the third quarter of 2021, an impairment indicator was identified in relation to a revised Flin Flon closure plan. The revised closure plan, reflecting higher cost estimates, led to a large increase in the environmental obligation and a corresponding increase to Flin Flon PP&E. The increase in Flin Flon PP&E prompted an impairment test of these assets since the Flin Flon operation was expected to close mid-2022. Hudbay recorded an impairment to PP&E by comparing the carrying value of the Flin Flon operation to its recoverable amount using the value-in-use method for future cash flows associated with the operation until closure. The value-in-use recoverable amount is considered a level 3 valuation method. This resulted in an impairment loss of $147,305.

6. Trade and other receivables

    Sep. 30, 2022     Dec. 31, 2021  
Current            
Trade receivables $ 14,463   $ 166,524  
Statutory receivables   24,136     31,191  
Other receivables   21,630     6,366  
    60,229     204,081  
Non-current            
Taxes receivable   15,573     16,084  
  $ 75,802   $ 220,165  

The decrease in trade receivables during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to a decrease in provisionally priced receivables, as well as the receipt of payment for three shipments in early 2022 which were sold in 2021, representing 30,000 tonnes of copper concentrate.

The increase in other receivables during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily the result of realized gains in fixed for floating swaps following a decline in copper prices.

Materials and supplies   6,148     3,417  
    41,076     37,573  
  $ 175,135   $ 196,026  

The cost of inventories recognized as an expense, including depreciation, and included in cost of sales amounted to $283,960 and $833,408 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - $267,886 and $800,727).

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, Hudbay recognized a recovery of nil and $557 in cost of sales related to adjustments of the carrying value of Peru inventories to net realizable value (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - recovery of nil and recovery of $1,446). Adjustments of the carrying value of inventories to net realizable value were related to changes in commodity prices.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, Hudbay recognized an expense of $2,074 and $4,103 in cost of sales related to adjustments to the carrying value of Manitoba materials and supplies inventories to net realizable value (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - expense of $5,445).

8. Other financial assets

    Sep. 30, 2022     Dec. 31, 2021

Non-current            
Investments at fair value through profit or loss   10,638     11,158  
  $ 27,992   $ 19,025  

The increase in derivative assets is the result of unrealized gains in fixed for floating swaps following a decline in copper prices. See note 21b.

9. Intangibles and other assets

Intangibles and other assets of $51,867 (December 31, 2021 - $20,138) includes $46,573 of other assets (December 31, 2021 - $14,240) and $5,294 of intangibles (December 31, 2021 - $5,898).

Other assets represent the carrying value of certain future community costs that relate to agreements with communities near the Peru operations which allow Hudbay to extract or explore minerals over the useful life of Peru operations. The liability remaining for these costs is recorded in agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost (note 12). Amortization of the carrying amount is recorded in the condensed consolidated interim income statements within other expenses (note 5c) or exploration expenses, depending on the nature of the agreement. Intangibles mainly represent computer software costs.

The increase in agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to the execution of the Uchucarcco community agreement which provides surface rights to the Maria Reyna and Caballito satellite properties located near the Constancia operation, partially offset by amortization of the carrying amount.

At September 30, 2022, capital works in progress decreased compared to December 31, 2021 as a result of a pre-tax impairment charge of $94,956 related to certain capitalized costs and assets associated with the previous stand-alone development plan for the Rosemont deposit that are no longer recoverable (see note 5e).

The closure of the Flin Flon operations in the second quarter of 2022 has led to the derecognition of fully depreciated assets. This resulted in a decrease in both the cost and accumulated depreciation of the Mining Properties and Plant and Equipment categories.

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. The changes in agreements with communities recorded at amortized cost during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to the execution of the Uchucarcco community agreement which provides surface rights to the Maria Reyna and Caballito satellite properties located near the Constancia operation, partially offset by disbursements, which was primarily all paid during the period. The increase in the balance of agreements with communities was related to changes in estimates and the accretion of the liability.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

Hudbay has entered into leases which expire between 2022 and 2043. The interest rates on leases which were capitalized have interest rates between 2.50% and 7.43%, per annum. The range of interest rates utilized for discounting varies depending mostly on the Hudbay entity acting as lessee and duration of the lease. For certain leases, Hudbay has the option to purchase the equipment and vehicles leased at the end of the terms of the leases. Hudbay's obligations under these leases are secured by the lessor's title to the leased assets. The present value of applicable lease payments has been recognized as an ROU asset, which was included as a non-cash addition to property, plant and equipment, and a corresponding amount as a lease liability.

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

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

Payments made for short-term, low value and variable leases would mostly be captured as expenses in the condensed consolidated interim income statements, however, certain amounts may be capitalized to PP&E for the Arizona segment during its development phase and certain amounts may be reported in inventories given the timing of sales. Variable payment leases include equipment used for heavy civil works at Constancia.

16. Deferred revenue

777 Stream Agreement

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the drawdown rates for the 777 stream agreement for gold and silver were C$1,584 and C$31.28 per ounce, respectively (year ended December 31, 2021 - C$1,578 and C$30.38 per ounce, respectively).

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 a portion of the stream deposit will not be repaid by means of precious metals credits from 777 production. The repayment amount is recorded as a refund liability (note 12), 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.

Peru Stream Agreement

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the drawdown rates for the Peru stream agreement for gold and silver were $734 and $14.95 per ounce, respectively (year ended December 31, 2021 - $791 and $17.47 per ounce, respectively).

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 2022 the amortization rate by which deferred revenue is drawn down into income was adjusted and, as required, a current period catch up adjustment was made for all prior period stream revenues since the stream agreement inception date. A variable consideration adjustment was also recorded on September 30, 2022 in Manitoba following a revised forecast for 777 in the third quarter of 2022, which indicated that substantially all of 777's precious metals reserves and inventory levels have been depleted. These variable consideration adjustments resulted in an increase in revenue of $959 and a decrease of finance expense of $940 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - increase in revenue of $1,617 and an increase of finance expense of $594).

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

    Sep. 30, 2022     Dec. 31, 2021  
Current $ 67,725   $ 88,963

The following table summarizes changes in decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities ("DRO"):

Balance, December 31, 2021 $ 467,800  
Changes in estimates to the provision   (13,742 )
Disbursements   (12,649 )
Unwinding of discount (note 5d)   6,323  
Effect of change in discount rate   (175,880 )
Effect of foreign exchange   (15,648 )
Balance, September 30, 2022 $ 256,204  

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, 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $146,950 in the condensed consolidated income statements mainly related to a revaluation adjustment to the Flin Flon operation's environmental reclamation provision. All quarterly periods in 2022 were substantially impacted by an increase in long term, risk-free discount rates based on changes in Canadian bond yields. Typically, an operating location will reflect any revaluation adjustments to the environmental reclamation provision against its reclamation assets. However, as the Flin Flon operations closed in June 2022, the corresponding Flin Flon assets have been fully depreciated and cannot be reduced below residual value resulting in the remaining impact being recorded as a gain in the condensed consolidated income statements.

As at September 30, 2022, decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities have been discounted to their present value at rates ranging from 3.10% to 4.33% per annum (June 30, 2022: 2.45% to 3.45%, March 31, 2022: 1.36% to 2.46% and December 31, 2021: 0.39% to 1.94% per annum), using pre-tax, risk-free interest rates that reflect the estimated maturity of each specific liability.

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding   261,896,143     261,517,461     262,212,117     261,430,996  

For periods where Hudbay records a loss, Hudbay calculates diluted loss per share using the basic weighted average number of shares. If the diluted weighted average number of shares were used, the result would be a reduction in the loss, which would be anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, Hudbay calculated diluted loss per share using 261,896,143 and 262,212,117 respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - 261,517,461 and 261,430,996).

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the determination of the diluted weighted-average number of common shares excludes the impact of 181,668 weighted-average stock options outstanding that were anti-dilutive as the Company recorded a loss in the financial period (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - 568,243 and 643,926 respectively).

1 Cash, restricted cash, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.
2 Excludes tax and other statutory amounts.
3 Trade and other receivables contain receivables including provisionally priced receivables classified as FVTPL and various other items at amortized cost. The fair value of provisionally priced receivables is determined using forward metals prices which is a level 2 valuation method.
4 Derivatives are carried at their fair value, which is determined based on internal valuation models that reflect observable forward market commodity prices, currency exchange rates, and discount factors based on market US dollar interest rates adjusted for credit risk.
5 All investments are carried at their fair value, which is determined using quoted market bid prices in active markets for listed shares.
6 These financial liabilities relate to agreements with communities near the Constancia project in Peru (note 12). Fair values have been determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on expected cash flows and a credit adjusted discount rate.
7 Fair value of the senior unsecured notes (note 15) has been determined using the quoted market price at period end.
8 Discounted value based on a risk adjusted discount rate.
9 The gold prepayment liability (note 13) is designated as fair value through profit or loss under the fair value option. Gains and losses related to the Company's own credit risk have been recorded at fair value through other comprehensive income. The fair value adjustment recorded in other comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was a gain of $788 (year ended December 31, 2021 was a loss of $2,684).
10 Discounted value based on a market rate at inception of the applicable Wheaton contract for carrying value (note 16) and current market rate at period end for fair value.

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.

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, 2022 and 2021

 

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 three months  ended September 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, 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, 2021.

(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, 2022, Hudbay had 68.3 million pounds of net copper swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $3.61/lb and settling across October 2022 to February 2023. As at December 31, 2021, Hudbay had 72.8 million pounds of net copper swaps outstanding at an effective average price of $4.34/lb and settling across January to April 2022. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at September 30, 2022 was an asset of $10,927 (December 31, 2021 - a liability position of $5,440).

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

Non-hedge derivative zinc contracts

Hudbay enters into future dated fixed price sales contracts with zinc customers and, to ensure that the Company 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. Hudbay held no forward zinc purchase contracts as at September 30, 2022. As at December 31, 2021, Hudbay held 3.1 million pounds of forward zinc purchase contracts with a price range of $1.44/lb to $1.52/lb. The aggregate fair value of the transactions at September 30, 2022 was nil. The aggregate fair value position at December 31, 2021 was an asset position of $419.

(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.
