Non-GAAP financial measure or ratio | Definition | Most directly comparable IFRS measure | Why management uses the measure and why it may be useful to investors |
Cash cost | Includes costs directly attributable to mining operations (including mining, processing and administration), treatment, refining and transportation charges, but excludes royalty expenses, expenses associated with non- cash fair value adjustments to inventory, depreciation and amortization and capital expenditures for deferred stripping. Revenue from sales of by-products, inclusive of adjustments for the terms of streaming agreements but excluding the recognition of any deferred revenue from the allocation of upfront streaming proceeds, reduce cash cost. | Production costs from continuing operations and Production costs from discontinued operations | Copper, zinc and nickel cash cost per pound sold are useful measures to assess the operating performance of the Company's mines and their ability to generate cash. The inclusion of by-product credits incorporates the benefit of other metals extracted in the production of the primary metal. |
Cash cost per pound sold | This ratio is calculated by dividing cash cost by the sales volume of the primary metal (copper, zinc, or nickel). | ||
All-in sustaining cost ("AISC") | Includes cash cost (as defined above), royalties, sustaining capital expenditure (including deferred stripping and underground mine development), reclamation and other closure cost accretion and amortization and lease payments (cash basis). As this measure seeks to reflect the full cost of production from current operations, expansionary capital and certain exploration costs are excluded as these are costs typically incurred to extend mine life or materially increase the productive capacity of existing assets, or for new operations. Corporate general and administrative expenses have also been excluded as any attribution of these costs to an operating site would not necessarily be reflective of costs directly attributable to the administration of the site. Certain other cash expenditures, including tax payments, financing charges (including capitalized interest) and costs related to business combinations, asset acquisitions and asset disposals are also excluded. | Production costs from continuing operations and Production costs from discontinued operations | Copper, zinc and nickel AISC and AISC per pound sold are useful measures to understand the full cost of producing and selling metal at the Company's mines, and each mine's ability to generate cash while sustaining production at current levels. |
AlSC per pound sold | This ratio is calculated by dividing AISC by the sales volume of the primary metal (copper, zinc, or nickel). | ||
Sustaining capital expenditures | This supplementary financial measure is defined as cash- basis expenditures which maintain existing operations and sustain production levels. | Investment in mineral properties, plant and equipment | Sustaining capital expenditures provide an understanding of costs required to maintain existing production levels. Expansionary capital expenditures provide information on costs required for future growth of existing or new assets. |
Expansionary capital expenditures | This non-GAAP measure is defined as cash-basis expenditures which increase current or future production capacity, cash flow or earnings potential and are reported excluding capitalized interest. Where an expenditure both maintains and expands current operations, classification would be based on the primary decision for which the expenditure is being made. |
Non-GAAP financial measure or ratio | Definition | Most directly comparable IFRS measure | Why management uses the measure and why it is useful to investors |
Realized price per pound and realized price per ounce 1 | Defined as revenue from metal sales (copper, gold, nickel and molybdenum) adding back treatment and refining charges, cash effects of gold and copper streams, recognition of deferred revenue from the allocation of upfront streaming proceeds and sales of silver and other metals, divided by the volume of metal sold in the period. | Revenue from continuing operations | These measures provide an understanding of the price realized in each reporting period for metal sales. |
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA | EBITDA represents net earnings or loss for the period before income tax expense or recovery, depreciation and amortization, and finance costs, net. Adjusted EBITDA removes the effects of items that do not reflect the Company's underlying operating performance and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. These may include: unrealized foreign exchange, unrealized gains or losses from derivative contracts, revaluation gains or losses on marketable securities, derivative liabilities and purchase options, expenses for acquisition-related fair value adjustments to inventory, non-cash impairment charges and reversals, non-cash stockpile inventory or fixed asset write-downs or reversals, goodwill impairment, costs relating to the sinkhole near Ojos del Salado operations, costs relating to the suspension of underground operations at Eagle, gains or losses on disposals of subsidiaries, income from investments in associates, insurance proceeds and litigation and settlements. | Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations and from discontinued operations | EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used to evaluate the Company's operational performance and its ability to generate cash from core operations. |
Adjusted earnings (loss) | Defined as net earnings or loss attributable to shareholders of the Company excluding the effects (net of tax) of significant items that do not reflect the Company's underlying operating performance. In addition to the items listed for Adjusted EBITDA, these may also include: deferred tax recovery or expense arising from foreign exchange translation and deferred tax recovery or expense arising from changes in tax rates. Adjustments exclude amounts attributable to non-controlling interests. | Net earnings (loss) attributable to Lundin Mining Corporation shareholders and Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Lundin Mining Corporation shareholders | In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. |
Adjusted earnings (loss) per share | This ratio is calculated by dividing adjusted net earnings or loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. | ||
Free cash flow from operations | Defined as cash flow provided by operating activities, excluding general exploration and business development costs and deducting sustaining capital expenditures (as defined above). | Cash provided by operating activities related to continuing operations and Cash provided by operating activities related to discontinued operations | Free cash flow from operations is indicative of the Company's ability to generate cash from its operations after consideration of required sustaining capital expenditure necessary to maintain existing production levels. Free cash flow further considers expansionary capital expenditure. |
Free cash flow | Defined as cash flow provided by operating activities, deducting sustaining capital expenditures and expansionary capital expenditures (both as defined above). |
Adjusted operating cash flow | Defined as cash provided by operating activities, excluding changes in non-cash working capital items. | Cash provided by operating activities related to continuing operations and Cash provided by operating activities related to discontinued operations | These measures are indicative of the Company's ability to generate cash from its operations and remove the impact of working capital, which can experience volatility from period-to-period. |
Adjusted operating cash flow per share | This ratio is calculated by dividing adjusted operating cash flow by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. | ||
Net debt | Net debt is defined as total debt and lease liabilities excluding deferred financing fees, less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt excluding lease liabilities is defined as total debt excluding lease liabilities, deferred financing fees, less cash and cash equivalents. | Debt and lease liabilities, current portion of debt and lease liabilities, cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, the above items as included in assets held for sale, and liabilities held for sale | These measures are indicative of the Company's financial position. |

Key audit matter | How our audit addressed the key audit matter |
Chapada cash-generating unit (CGU) goodwill impairment assessment Refer to note 2 – Basis of presentation and summary of material accounting policies and note 11 – Goodwill and asset impairment to the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s total carrying amount of goodwill as at December 31, 2024 was $134 million, which related to the Chapada CGU. The Company’s goodwill is required to be tested annually for impairment or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount of that CGU, an impairment loss is recognized. The recoverable amount of the Chapada CGU was based on a fair value less cost of disposal method using a discounted cash flow model and market-based approach. Management applied significant judgment in estimating the recoverable amount of the Chapada CGU. Significant assumptions used by management to determine the recoverable amounts include future metal prices, production based on estimated quantities of mineral reserves and mineral resources, production and capital expenditures, foreign exchange rate, in-situ multiples and discount rate. The recoverable amount of the Chapada CGU determined by management exceeded its carrying value, and as a result, no impairment loss was recorded. |
Management’s estimates of production based on estimated quantities of mineral reserves and mineral resources are based on information compiled by qualified persons (management’s experts). We considered this a key audit matter due to the significant auditor effort, subjectivity and significant judgment in performing procedures to test significant assumptions used by management in determining the fair value of the Chapada CGU. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge in the field of valuation assisted us in performing our procedures. | The procedures performed also included evaluation of the methods and assumptions used by management’s experts, tests of the data used by management’s experts and an evaluation of their findings. – Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge in the field of valuation assisted in assessing the following: (i) appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model and market-based approach to determine the recoverable amount of the Chapada CGU; and (ii) the reasonableness of the discount rate and in-situ multiples. |
