On an adjusted basis, Hudbay says it profit attributable to owners amounted to US$100,000 or zero cents per share in its latest quarter compared with an adjusted loss of US$18.3 million or seven cents per share in the same quarter last year.
In its outlook for the year, Hudbay lowered its cash cost guidance for copper to a range of 90 cents US to US$1.10 per pound compared with earlier expectations for between US$1.05 and US$1.25 per pound.
The company says the improvement was the result of meaningful exposure to gold byproduct credits and continued strong cost control.
