Buenaventura Announces Third Quarter and Nine-month 2022 Results

Compañia de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. (“Buenaventura” or “the Company”) (NYSE: BVN; Lima Stock Exchange: BUE.LM), Peru’s largest publicly-traded precious metals mining company, today announced results for the third quarter (3Q22) and nine-month period ended September 30, 2022. All figures have been prepared in accordance with IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) on a non-GAAP basis and are stated in U.S. dollars (US$).

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights:

  • 3Q22 EBITDA from direct operations was US$ 22.2 million, compared to US$ 39.5 million reported in 3Q21.
  • 3Q22 Operating Cash Flow reached US$ 16.1 million, compared to US$ -464.3 million in 3Q21. The 3Q21 Operating Cash Flow figures include a US$ 544.2 million payment to SUNAT, the Peruvian tax authority.
  • 3Q22 net loss was US$ 19.8 million, compared to a US$ 91.9 million net loss for the same period in 2021.
  • 3Q22 exploration at operating units increased to US$ 20.7 million, compared to US$ 17.1 million in 3Q21. This increase was aligned with the Company’s revised strategy to increase its focus on exploration in order to extend LOM.
  • Buenaventura’s cash position reached US$ 288.0 million as of September 30, 2022. Net Debt decreased to US$ 448.1 million with an average maturity of 3.6 years.
  • 3Q22 capital expenditures were US$ 37.2 million, compared to US$ 23.9 million for the same period in 2021. 3Q22 CAPEX includes US$ 5.2 million related to the San Gabriel Project and US$ 7.3 million related to the Yumpag Project.
  • Construction related activities at San Gabriel are gradually and progressively resuming. Buenaventura has therefore updated its CAPEX guidance for San Gabriel and now expects this to reach approximately US$ 65.0 million by year end 2022.
