4. MACROECONOMIC SALES CONDITIONS

responsibility

The first weeks of 2021 were full of events of importance for the financial markets. Individual countries began to deal with the second or third waves of the coronavirus infections. Further infections also appeared in China, which led to the closure of a city of 11 million people in the province of Hebei, and consequently temporary fears about the further course of the world's economic recovery. However, China quickly dealt with the situation and the number of cases returned to levels considered immaterial from the point of view of the entire population of the People's Republic of China.

The momentary rise in uncertainty slowed the increase in copper prices in January. In subsequent weeks an increasing number of financial institutions began to notice a problem with the availability of raw materials on the market in 2021, taking into account the continued high physical demand, threats to supply and the low level of official market inventories. Such rhetoric, combined with the overriding theme of green investing, zero emission economies and the development of electromobiity with copper as one of the most important minerals related to the scenario of development of the aforementioned trends, led to further strong rises in the red metal price. Price rises on such a scale would not however be possible were it not for the systematically opened speculative long positions on the LME, COMEX and SHFE markets. The increase in investor activity on the Shanghai (SHFE) market may have been connected with the lack of interruptions in the production during the 7-day Chinese New Year celebrations. Immediately following the new year festivities, the enormous accumulated speculative Chinese investor demand led to a rapid increase in the copper price to above 9 500 USD/t. Following consolidation of the metal's price in March, a subsequent wave of price increases at the turn of April and May resulted in a new historic record being attained.

A rarely seen event on the financial markets were the actions of individual investors on the Reddit internet forum. The coordinated actions of participants of this social medium led to a so-called short squeeze on the shares of GameStop, and at the same time caused multi-billion losses by investment funds which had taken up extensive short positions on the shares of this company. After this successful attack, rumours arose of another operation, this time aimed at the silver market, resulting in a very evident jump in the volatility and prices of this metal at the start of February 2021. Large amount of cash flowed into ETFs (Exchange traded funds), while many entities involved in the sale of silver coinage experienced significant delays in meeting orders. The attack was however not successful and after reaching in subsequent days the level of 29 USD/oz t the situation became calmer, and the silver price returned to the upper limit of the range in which it had been in since August 2020.

In its June "Global economic outlook" report the World Bank emphasised that while the global economy is in an especiallystrong period of growth, this growth is not evenly spread amongst individual countries and regions. According to the World Bank forecast, global GDP growth in 2021 will amount to 5.6%, the highest level seen since any crisis in the last 80 years. The post-pandemic economic recovery is concentrated in several of the largest global economies, although most of the developing countries remain behind. It is expected that in 2022 global GDP will be at a level of 2% lower than expected prior to the pandemic, while nearly two-thirds of developing countries will not make up the losses incurred in 2020. The International Monetary Fund also points out that a threat to further development comes from the "substantial inequality" between the economic recovery in individual countries, indicating the imbalance between developed countries. Examples of the aforementioned inequality are Germany and the Netherlands, which already in 2021 are supposed to return to GDP levels from prior to the pandemic, while recovery in Italy and Spain from their losses will take at least another year. The increase in infections seen since the end of June and delays in vaccinations may further deepen this difference. To achieve a more equitable distribution of incomes in the global economy, an initiative has arisen amongst the leaders of the G-20 countries to introduce a global, consistent corporate tax rate of 15%, aimed at making it more difficult for trans-national companies to avoid paying taxes in those countries in which they earn revenues and to weaken the position of so-called tax havens.

The June forecasts of economists from the European Central Bank indicate economic growth of 4.6% in the eurozone, and were raised as compared to the forecast from March 2021 by +0.6 percentage point. Likewise the path of forecast inflation HICP (Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices) for the eurozone was raised by the ECB to 1.9% in 2021 and 1.5% in 2022, and as compared to the March forecasts amounted respectively to +0.4 and 0.3 percentage points. The May inflation reading in the eurozone amounted to 2.0%, in the United States to 5%, and in Germany to 2.4%. The increase in prices is the strongest in many years. In the case of the United States inflation remains at its highest level since the Great Financial Crisis of 2008, which poses a question about the advisability of further monetary easing by central banks. In the first half of 2021 the largest central banks did not raise interest rates and continued to carry out quantitative easing programs, and in response to charges of fuelling inflation they announced in concert that in their opinion, the increase in price dynamics is temporary, and in the second half of the year it will return to desired levels. Nonetheless, some central banks in developing countries have already commenced a cycle of interest rate hikes in the first half of 2021. Brazil has raised its rates three times, Mexico surprised markets with a hike of 25 percentage points to 4.25%, and Czechia and Hungary became the first countries within the European Union to raise interest rates in recent years.

From the point of view of the copper market, of particular importance were the discussions in Chile in the first half of 2021 regarding the introduction of a metals extraction tax whose rate is meant to rise as does the price of copper. The tax is aimed at accumulating funds for social expenses and for supporting the economy of a country which is experiencing difficulties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Likewise Peru, where Pedro Castillo won the election, a candidate with leftist views, has declared that it will start to work on imposing the fiscal burden to producers involved in extracting natural resources in that country and who are taking advantage of recent strong price rises on world markets.

The cash settlement price of copper on the London Metal Exchange (LME) in the first half of 2021 ranged between 7 755 - 10 724 USD/t. The first half of the year brought a steady rise in the price of the red metal, to the historic maximum of 10 724 USD/t on 10 May 2021. The copper price rose on a wave of good economic data from China and prompted by perspectives for large investments in infrastructure, the green energy sector and electric vehicles resulting from stimulus packets in the world's largest economies. In terms of supply, the first half of 2021 was characterised by uncertainty about the return of the pandemic in Chile and Peru and declarations regarding the introduction of additional minerals extraction royalties in these countries, which could restrict investments in the development of new mining projects. Another substantial factor responsible for the rise in copper prices was the inflow of speculative capital onto the commodities market. This capital is characterised however by high volatility, and at any moment could begin to flow out of the market.

The increase in metals prices, as well as of many other raw materials, disturbed Chinese authorities, who began a verbal intervention aimed at reducing speculation on commodities prices. The verbal commentary cooled investors' sentiment and an announcement of sales of inventories of selected metals accumulated by the Chinese Strategic Reserve Bureau (SRB), together with a strengthening of the USD, impacted on an adjustment in the price of the red metal. The rising trend was halted and the price of copper consolidated between 9 000 and 10 000 USD/t. Apart from the signs of weakening demand in China, this was one of the factors hampering higher prices. The price of the red metal fell in June by -9%, in the meantime recording a monthly minimum of almost 9 100 USD/t. June turned out to be the worst month for the copper price dynamics since March 2020 and the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The average cash settlement price of copper in the first half of 2021 on the LME amounted to 9 092 USD/t and was nearly 65% higher than in the comparable period of 2020, when it reached on average 5 500 USD/t.

The average price of silver according to the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) in the first half of 2021 reached the level of 26.47 USD/oz t, meaning an increase by 59% as compared to prices in the first half of 2020 – 16.65 USD/oz t. The first half of 2021 began with increases in the metal's price. In particular, silver saw a one-day price rise of over 2 USD/oz t on 1 February when a group of investors from the internet forum Reddit coordinated their actions to focus on silver, and on that day the fixing price reached a maximum of 29.59 USD/oz t, the highest level since 2013. On the following day the price however returned to around 27 USD/oz t and until the end of the first half of the year remained between 24 and 28 USD/oz t. The price of gold during this period initially fell but subsequently stabilised around 1 800 USD/oz t. The gold to silver ratio returned to the vicinity of the long-term average of 60.

The average USD/PLN exchange rate (NBP) in the first half of 2021 amounted to 3.77 and was lower compared to the corresponding period of 2020 by 6% (4.01). Investors on the USD market in the first half of 2021 began to ask questions about the possibility of the USD remaining at a high level given such a large scale of money being printed by the Fed. Fears arose of inflation and the first expectations of a change in the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve to a more hawkish one. The interest rate of American bonds rose to the highest level in years. The USD exchange rate compared to the basket of currencies was volatile in the first half of 2021, and as respects the Polish złoty, the USD mainly remained at a level close to 3.80. In turn the National Bank of Poland made it clear on the currency markets that it is planning to prevent a significant strengthening of the PLN exchange rate and maintained its dovish rhetoric, keeping interest rates at an unchanged, low level. The first statements about a potential hike in interest rates in Poland at the beginning of 2022 appeared only at the end of the first half of 2021.

The minimum USD/PLN exchange rate of 3.6545 was recorded at the beginning of June, and the maximum at the end of March – 3.9676.

In 2021 the molybdenum market saw a reversal of the sideways trend from 2020. The average price of molybdenum in the first half of 2021 amounted to 12.53 USD/lb, meaning an increase by nearly 38% as compared to the corresponding period of 2020 (9.1 USD/lb). In the first half of the year the price of molybdenum was supported by supply-side problems. A series of hurricanes off the coast of Chile interrupted the transport of material from this producing country. Logistical interruptions and production restrictions in the mines of South America, the closure of a large Chinese mine due to flooding and a clear increase in demand in China led to further rises in molybdenum prices. The price of molybdenum was also impacted by increasing demand, mainly from the steel market. At the end of June the price exceeded the high level of 18 USD/lb.

The average USD/CAD exchange rate (per the Bank of Canada) in the first half of 2021 amounted to 1.25 and was 8.7% lower compared to the corresponding period of 2020 (1.37).

Chart 5. Average monthly USD/CAD exchange rate per the Bank of Canada

The increase in the value of the Canadian dollar and the Chilean peso was due to the depreciation of the USD resulting from inflationary fears in the USA as a result of the loose monetary policy of the Fed and the extremely large fiscal packages advanced by the Biden administration. Both currencies were also impacted by the increase in raw materials prices in the first half of 2021, especially copper and crude oil. Both in Chile as well as in Canada there arose the risk of inflation, which could force the central banks of these countries to increase interest rates sooner than initially expected.

The average USD/CLP exchange rate (per the Bank of Chile) in the first half of 2021 amounted to 720 and was more than 11% lower than recorded in the first half of 2020 (813).

Compared to the Company's Budget targets, in the first half of 2021 production was higher for all parameters presented above.

Compared to the corresponding period of 2020, in the first half of 2021 extraction of ore was higher (dry weight). Copper content in ore decreased to 1.48%.

Production of copper in concentrate was lower by around 3.7 thousand tonnes as compared to the first 6 months of 2020 and was due to a lower quality of feed.

Compared to the corresponding period of 2020, electrolytic copper production increased by 12.4 thousand tonnes, thanks to the higher availability of production lines and of feed material.

The lower production of metallic silver in the first half of 2021 as compared to the first 6 months of 2020 was due to the lower availability of feed material.

5.2. Revenues

Revenues from contracts with customers of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.

Revenues in the first half of 2021 amounted to PLN 12 144 million and were higher than in the corresponding period of 2020 by 36%. The main reasons for the increase in revenues were more favourable metals prices (copper by 65%, silver by 59% and gold by 10%) and an increase in volume of sales of copper products, alongside a less favourable USD/PLN exchange rate (-6%) and a lower volume of sales of silver and gold. The main factors responsible for the change in revenues compared to the first half of 2020 are presented in table 6 (section 5.4 Financial results).

1) Unit cost prior to decrease by the value of anode slimes containing, among others, silver and gold

2) Cash cost of concentrate production reflecting the minerals extraction tax, plus administrative expenses and smelter treatment and refining charges (TC/RC), less depreciation/amortisation and the value of by-product premiums, calculated for the sold payable copper in concentrate

The Parent Entity's cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses (total cost of products, merchandise and materials sold, selling costs and administrative expenses) in the first half of 2021 amounted to PLN 9 650 million and were higher by 27.6% as compared to the corresponding period of 2020, mainly due to the increase in cost of consumption of purchased metal-bearing materials and an increase in minerals extraction tax, alongside a lower than in the prior year utilisation of inventories of half-finished products and work in progress.

In the first half of 2021 total expenses by nature were higher by PLN 3 529 million as compared to the first half of 2020, alongside a higher minerals extraction tax charge by PLN 957 million due to the increase in copper and silver prices and higher costs of consumption of purchased metal-bearing materials by PLN 1 927 million (due to a higher volume of consumption by 35 thousand tonnes of copper and a higher purchase price by 43%).

Expenses by nature, after excluding purchased metal-bearing materials and the minerals extraction tax, were higher by PLN 645 million, mainly due to higher labour costs by PLN 247 million (higher remuneration and a higher provision for the annual bonus), higher costs of electrical and other energy by PLN 102 million (mainly due to introduction of a capacity fee) and higher costs of materials and technological fuels consumed by PLN 90 million (mainly due to higher purchase prices).

C1 cost in the first half of 2021 amounted to 2.12 USD/lb and was higher than in the corresponding period of 2020 by 33%. The increase in cost was mainly due to a higher minerals extraction tax charge (1st half 2020: 0.38 USD/lb; 1st half 2021: 1.02 USD/lb). Excluding the minerals extraction tax, C1 was 9% lower as compared to the cost in the corresponding prior year period, mainly due to the higher valuation of by-products.

The pre-precious metals credit unit cost of electrolytic copper production from own concentrate (unit cost prior to decrease by the value of anode slimes containing, among others, silver and gold) amounted to 30 410 PLN/t (in the corresponding period of 2020: 25 092 PLN/t) and was higher by 21% mainly due to an increase in minerals extraction tax charge with lower copper production from own concentrate.

The total unit cost of electrolytic copper production from own concentrate amounted to 19 219 PLN/t and was higher than in the first half of 2020 by 9% due to a higher minerals extraction tax charge. After deducting the minerals extraction tax, this cost was 16% lower than in the first half of 2020, mainly due to the valuation of associated metals (higher silver and gold prices).

1) Morrison and McCreedy West mines in the Sudbury Basin

Copper production in the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the first half of 2021 amounted to 36.3 thousand tonnes, or an increase by 5.6 thousand tonnes (+18%) compared to the corresponding prior-year period. The increase in copper production by the segment was mainly due to higher production by the Robinson mine.

The increase in copper production in the Robinson mine by 6.2 thousand tonnes (+29%) was due to the extraction of ore with a higher copper content and higher recovery. These factors were partially offset by a lower volume of ore processed. The increase in TPM production by 1.1 thousand troy ounces (+6%) was due to the higher recovery of gold by this mine.

The decrease in copper production in the Franke mine by 0.7 thousand tonnes (-12%) is mainly the result of mining a lower quality ore, which led to lower copper recovery.

The decrease in copper production by 0.1 thousand tonnes (-9%) and TPM by 13.0 thousand troy ounces (-64%) in the McCreedy West mine was due to the lower volume of ore extracted and also, in the case of precious metals, to their lower content in extracted ore.

1) reflects processing premium

The sales revenue of the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the first half of 2021 amounted to USD 372 million, or an increase by USD 56 million (+18%). The increase in revenues was mainly due to higher copper prices. This factor was partially limited by a lower metals sales volume and lower revenues from the sale of services of companies operating under the brand DMC Mining Services ("DMC").

Revenues from the sale of copper amounted to USD 272 million and were increased by USD 102 million (+60%) compared to the corresponding period of 2020. The increase was due to a higher achieved sales price by 70% (9 188 USD/t in the first half of 2021 compared to 5 417 USD/t in the first half of 2020) and was partially limited by a lower copper sales volume by 3.9 thousand tonnes (-11%).

The lower revenues from TPM sales by USD 23 million (-36%) are the result of a decrease in the volume of sales by 18.5 thousand troy ounces (-45%), which was partially offset by higher achieved sales prices.

Revenues from the sales of services by DMC decreased from USD 72 million in the first half of 2020 to USD 52 million in the first half of 2021, due among others to the completion of a contract on 28 August 2020 related to a project carried out in the United Kingdom.

The average weighted unit cash cost of copper production for all operations in the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the first half of 2021 amounted to 2.10 USD/lb, or an increase by 5% compared to the corresponding period of 2020. The increase in C1 is due to a decrease in copper sales volume and lower revenues from sales of associated metals (-32%), which decrease C1.

7. RESULTS OF THE SEGMENT SIERRA GORDA S.C.M.

The segment Sierra Gorda S.C.M. is a joint venture (under the JV company Sierra Gorda S.C.M.) of KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. (55%) and Sumitomo Metal Mining and Sumitomo Corporation (45%).

The following production and financial data are presented on a 100% basis for the joint venture and proportionally to the interest in the company Sierra Gorda S.C.M. (55%), pursuant to the methodology of presentation of data in part 2 of the consolidated financial statements.

7.1. Production

In the first half of 2021, Sierra Gorda S.C.M. substantially increased its production of copper compared to production in the corresponding period of 2020, while molybdenum production was lower.

Production of copper, molybdenum and precious metals by Sierra Gorda S.C.M.

	Unit	1st half 2021	1st half 2020	Change (%)	2Q 2021	1Q 2021

TPM production – gold - segment (55%)	koz t	14.3	16.2	(11.9)	7.7	6.6

1) Payable metal in concentrate.

The increase in copper production by 31% compared to the amount achieved in the first half of 2020 was the result of higher copper content in processed ore by 27% and improved copper recovery by 2%, with the volume of ore processed not substantially different from that achieved in the prior year.

Molybdenum production was 8% lower compared to the first half of 2020, resulting from the planned mining of areas with lower molybdenum content. It should be noted that molybdenum recovery was higher than in the first half of 2020 by 6%.

7.2. Sales

Revenues in the first half of 2021 amounted to USD 1 031 million (on a 100% basis), or PLN 2 144 million respectively to the 55% interest held.

1) reflecting treatment/refining and other charges

The more than doubled increase in revenues (+USD 557 million) compared to the level achieved in the first half of 2020 was mainly due to the higher prices of metals sold by Sierra Gorda S.C.M. Also of significance was the increase in copper sales volume by 19.6 thousand tonnes.

With regard to molybdenum, although sales volume was lower (lower production due to a decrease in molybdenum content in ore), revenues were higher by 61%, mainly due to higher prices.

The detailed impact of individual factors on changes in revenues is presented in the subsection discussing the financial results of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.

7.3. Costs

The cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses incurred by the company Sierra Gorda S.C.M. amounted to USD 498 million, of which USD 425 million were costs of sales and USD 73 million were the total selling costs and administrative expenses. Proportionally to the interest held (55%) the costs of the segment Sierra Gorda amounted to PLN 1 036 million.

Costs (prior to the impairment loss on non-current assets) and (C1) payable copper production cost of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.

C1 payable copper production cost (1	USD/lb	0.87	1.26	(31.0)	0.81	0.93

Compared to the first half of 2020, the cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses expressed in USD million was higher by USD 30 million (+6%), with a copper sales volume higher by 28%.

Changes compared to the corresponding period of 2020 were mainly in respect of the following expenses by nature prior to the change in inventories and less capitalised stripping:

− depreciation/amortisation a decrease by USD 9 million (-5%), mainly as regards capitalised stripping,
− spare parts a decrease by USD 3 million (-9%) mainly as regards spare parts for machinery and mining equipment,
− materials a decrease by USD 3 million (-6%), mainly due to improved utilisation of explosives and lower consumption of milling materials (steel balls),
− labour costs an increase by USD 32 million (73%) resulting from incorporation of the results of wage negotiations and a lower CLP/USD exchange rate,
− external services an increase by USD 12 million (+13%) due to higher extraction, and therefore a higher scope of work by mining machinery and consumption of tires (the maintenance of mining machinery and servicing of tires are subject to contracts)
− energy an increase by USD 4 million (+4%) among others due to higher consumption of energy resulting from the hardness of the material processed,
− fuel, lubricants and oils an increase by USD 6 million (+30%), mainly due to higher prices of oils by 27%,
− transport and shipping costs an increase by USD 13 million (+41%), with respect to transport by land and sea as well as port-related costs due to the higher volume of concentrate sales and higher sea transport rates.

As a result of the strengthening of the PLN, the costs of the segment Sierra Gorda for the first half of 2021 expressed in PLN amounted to PLN 1 036 million, meaning they were at the level of the comparable period of 2020.

The C1 cash cost of copper production for the first half of 2021 amounted to 0.87 USD/lb. The decrease compared to the corresponding period of 2020 by 31% was due to a higher volume of copper sales (+28%) and higher revenues from the sale of associated metals (+29%).

7.4. Financial results

In the first half of 2021, adjusted EBITDA amounted to USD 711 million, of which proportionally to the interest held (55%) PLN 1 478 million is attributable to the KGHM Group.

9. RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE GROUP

9.1. Comprehensive Risk Management System in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group

The KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group defines risk as uncertainty, being an integral part of the activities conducted and having the potential to result in both opportunities and threats to achievement of the business goals. The current and future, actual and potential impact of risk on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group's activities is assessed. Based on this assessment, management practices are reviewed and adjusted in terms of responses to individual risk factors.

Under the current Corporate Risk Management Policy and Procedure and the Rules of the Corporate Risk and Compliance Committee, the process of corporate risk management in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group is consistently performed. The Company oversees the process of managing corporate risk in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, while in the companies of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group documents regulating this area are consistent with those of the Parent Entity.

The Corporate Risk Management Policy of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group is available on the website www.kghm.com.

Each year, the process of managing corporate risk is subjected to an efficiency audit compliant with the guidelines of the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2016, and from 2021 under the updated standard of the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2021.

Risk factors in various areas of the KGHM Group Polska Miedź S.A. Group's operations are continuously identified, assessed and analysed in terms of their possible limitation. Key risks in the KGHM Group Polska Miedź S.A. Group undergo in-depth analysis in order to develop a Risk Response Plan and Corrective Actions. Other risk factors undergo monitoring by the Department of Corporate Risk Management and Compliance, and in terms of financial risk by the division of the Executive Director for Treasury Operations - Corporate Treasurer.

In order to unify the approach to the systematic identification, evaluation and analysis of the risk of a loss of compliance, defined as adherence to the requirements arising from existing laws (external and internal) or from voluntarily-assumed legal obligations and standards (including ethical standards), in 2020 the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. adopted a Compliance Management Policy for the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group together with a Procedure and Methodology for managing compliance in KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. The process of managing compliance, which is connected with the process of managing corporate risk within the in KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, is an important business tool for the prevention of events which could lead to the imposition of penalties.

The corporate risk management process adopted in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group is inspired by the solutions adopted by the ISO 31000:2018 standard, best practice in risk management and the specific nature of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, and is comprised of the following stages:

STEP 1 Defining the context	The first step in the process is comprised of three actions: defining the external context, defining the internal context and the risk management context.
	The external context is the environment in which the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group advances its Strategy. Here the definition needs to update the understanding of the social, political, legal, regulatory, financial, economic and technological aspects of the environment which affect its activities.
	During the process of defining the internal context, goals are analysed (strategic/business), changes in the organisational structure are planned and performed, new areas of activities, projects, etc.
	The last part of this step is to define the risk management context, which comprises the setting or updating of goals, the scope, responsibilities and procedures and methods applied in the risk management process.
STEP 2 Identification and Evaluation	In this step of the process we identify and evaluate risks which could impact the achievement of goals at the level of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group. The main task in this step is to prepare a complete list of threats which could facilitate, impede, accelerate or delay the achievement of goals. Each identified risk is assigned to a category and a sub-category in the form of a Risk Model, which provides the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group with a consistent risk taxonomy.
	Following its identification, each corporate risk is evaluated using a Risk Evaluation Matrix, containing a scaled breakdown of assessments by impact, utility and probability. A risk may have various effects, and therefore in order to ensure the broadest recognition of potential impact and the limitation of subjective evaluation, the following Impact evaluation measures have been defined:
	- Finance – impact of the effects of a given risk in its financial aspect by applying value ranges.
	- Strategy – evaluation of the risk's impact on the ability to achieve strategic goals.
	- Reputation and Stakeholders – impact of the risk on the Company's reputation, trust in the brand, investor relations, relations with stakeholders, also including on the effectiveness of actions related to building a responsible business and sustainable development.
	- Health and Safety – direct impact on health and safety and human life.
	Natural environment – impact of the materialisation of risk on the climate and natural environment and the - functioning of the ecosystem.
	Regulations and Laws – evaluation of the compliance of events with existing laws, the need to participate in - proceedings before bodies of public administration of a supervisory and regulatory nature as well as potential penalties as a result of such proceedings.
	- Going concern – evaluation of the impact of risk on interruptions to activities resulting in significant/irreversible effects and loss of access to information important from the point of view of conducted activities.
	The results of the identification and evaluation of risks are presented in a graphic form, i.e. Risk Maps. These provide a profile of the given risk and support the process of identifying the key risk.
STEP 3 Analysis and Response	The goal of this step is to deepen knowledge and to understand the specific nature of the types of key risks identified in the previous step. Cause and effect analyses and a more substantive description of the means of dealing with risk are aimed at facilitating decision making on whether to maintain or eventually change current actions.
	A directional decision is called a Response to risk. A change in the way an action is taken requires the determination of Corrective Actions, meaning organisational, process, systemic and other changes which are aimed at reducing the level of the key risk.
	During this step KRIs – Key Risk Indicators – are also defined, being a set of business process parameters or environmental parameters which reflect changes to a given risk profile.
STEP 4 Monitoring and Communicating	The goal is to ensure that the adopted Risk Response Plan is effective (ad hoc and periodic reports), new risks are identified (updating of the Risk Registry), changes in the internal and external environments and their impact on activities are uncovered, and appropriate actions are taken in response to incidents (updating of information on Incidents).
	Effective, well-planned and appropriately performed monitoring of risk enables flexible and prompt reaction to changes in the external and internal environments (e.g. risk escalation, changes in actions related to risk response, or risk evaluation parameters, etc.).
	Achievement of this step provides the assurance that risk management in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group fulfils the expectations of the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., the Audit Committee of the Supervisory Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and other stakeholders by supplying reliable information about risk, continuous improvement and adaptation of the quality and effectiveness of Risk Response to the demands of the external and internal context.

9.2. Corporate risk – key risks, risk factors and their mitigation

A comprehensive approach to risk management is consistent with a strategy of growth as well as with continuous striving to achieve operational excellence and the principles of a sustainable and responsible business. It was designed in such a way as to support the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in building a resistant corporate structure. A tool used in identifying risk in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group is the Risk Model. Its structure is based on a given risk's source and is divided into the following 5 categories: Technological, Values chain, Market, External and Internal. Several dozen subcategories have been identified and defined for each of these categories, covering particular areas of the operations or management. The KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group applies due diligence when undertaking actions aimed at minimising exposure to risk by lowering vulnerability to individual risk factors and reducing the probability of the materialisation of events which such factors could induce. The identification and evaluation of threats is however always associated with uncertainty as to the effectiveness of the preventative measures applied and planned, especially as regards those areas which are beyond the direct control of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group.

The key risks in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, along with their detailed description, mitigating activities and identification of specific risks for the Parent Entity and the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, were presented in The Management Board's Report on the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2020 in section 12 "Risk management in the Group", available on the Company's website at www.kghm.com (https://kghm.com/en/investors/results-center/financial-reports).

Risks and opportunities related to climate change

The goals of Corporate Risk Management in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group are consistent with the adopted Strategy of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, and are shaped by global megatrends and determine the environmental challenges which the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group must face. The impact of climate change on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group along with its detailed description and mitigating actions were presented in the Non-financial report of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group for 2020 in section 1.11 "Comprehensive risk management system in the KGHM Group", available on the Company's website at www.kghm.com (https://kghm.com/en/investors/results-center/financialreports).

Moreover, the KGHM Group is preparing a Climate Policy which will represent a systemic solution enabling the implementation of reporting guidelines for non-financial information. As part of this work it is expected that a comprehensive analysis will be carried out to further identify threats and opportunities related to climate change which are currently impacting or will impact KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., as well as threats and opportunities related to the impact of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. on the climate. A detailed categorisation of physical risks and transformational risks related to climate change will also be conducted via the planned utilisation of TCFD recommendations.

Impact of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic on risk assessment

Evaluation of the key categories of risk, which are impacted by the coronavirus pandemic, underwent detailed analysis by the on-going monitoring of selected information in the areas of production, sales, supply chains, personnel management and finance, in order to support the process of reviewing the current financial and operating situation of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group.

From the Group's point of view, a significant effect of the coronavirus epidemic is its impact on market risk related to the volatility of metals prices and market indices. As at 30 June 2021, the price of copper amounted to 9 385 USD/t, or an increase by 21% compared to the price at the end of 2020 and an increase of 6% compared to 31 March 2021. The Company's share price in the first half of 2021 rose by 3% compared to the end of 2020 and at the close of trading on 30 June 2021 amounted to PLN 187.65. The Company's share price remained at a stable, high level during the entire first half of 2021, several times exceeding the amount of PLN 200.00 per share and reaching on 13 May 2021 the record level of PLN 223.80. The increase in the Parent Entity's share price resulted in an increase in the Company's market capitalisation, which on 30 June 2021 amounted to PLN 37 530 million compared to PLN 36 600 million at the end of 2020.

As at the date of publication of this report, the Management Board of the Parent Entity remains of the opinion that the risk of interruptions to its operations due to the coronavirus is low. The observed, slight interruptions to the supply chains for materials and services continue to be without impact on the continuity of the Core Production Business' operations.

In terms of sales, the majority of customers continue not to feel any strong negative impact from the epidemic on their activities, thanks to which their liabilities due to sales to the Parent Entity are being regulated on time, while the execution of deliveries to customers continues without interruption.

The Group is fully capable of regulating its liabilities. The cash held by the Group along with its external financing guarantee its continued financial liquidity. Basing the Group's financing structure at the level of the Parent Entity on long-term and diversified sources of financing has ensured the Company and the Group of long-term financial stability by prolonging the average weighted maturity of the debt of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.

As a result of centralisation of the process of acquiring external financing to meet the needs of the entire Group, for the purpose of intra-Group liquidity transfers a debt instrument is used in the form of owner loans, supporting the investment process, and in terms of servicing current activities the Group makes use of local and international cash pooling.

At present the Parent Entity has not identified any substantial risk of failure to adhere to the financial covenants contained in borrowing agreements arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Group continues to advance investment projects in accordance with the adopted schedules, and at the same time has not identified any heightened risk related to their continuation resulting from the coronavirus pandemic.

During the reported period there have not occurred any interruptions to operations of the Group as a result of infections from the virus amongst the employees. There has still not been any substantial increase recorded in absenteeism either amongst the employees of the Parent Entity's core production business or in the domestic and international production assets due to the pandemic.

Given the threat of subsequent waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Parent Entity maintains on-going monitoring of the global economic situation in order to evaluate its impact on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and to undertake actions mitigating this impact. Questions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the operations of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group are described in section 10.1 of this Report "Factors which, in the issuer's opinion, will impact its results over at least the following quarter".

Market risk management

In terms of market risk management (in particular the risk of changes in metals prices and exchange rates) of greatest significance and impact on the results of the Group are the scale and nature of the activities of the Parent Entity and the mining companies of KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. The Parent Entity actively manages market risk, undertaking actions and decisions in this regard within the context of the global exposure throughout the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group.

Commodity risk, currency risk	In terms of the realisation of strategic plan of hedging against market risk, in the first half of 2021 the Parent Entity purchased put options on the currency market for the total amount of USD 870 million with maturities from
	February to December 2021 (of which: USD 510 million for the period from July to December 2021). In addition, previously sold put options for the same period were bought back in the notional amount of USD 495 million (at
	USD 45 million monthly). A seagull hedging strategy was implemented on the copper market for the period from
	July 2022 to December 2023 for the total volume of 45 thousand tonnes. In addition, as a result of restructuring a
	hedging position on the copper market, the Parent Entity purchased call options for the period from March to
	December 2021 for the total volume of 155 thousand tonnes (of which: 93 thousand tonnes for the second half of
	2021), opening at the same time participation in potential further price rises for the collar and seagull options
	structures held for 2021. As part of this restructuration, the level of execution of options structures hedging
	revenues from the sale of copper for the period from October to December 2021 for the total volume of 25.5
	thousand tonnes was also raised. In the first half of 2021 the Parent Entity also restructured a position on the
	forward silver market for the period from July 2021 to December 2022. A portion of the notional, previously sold

	put options (11.7 million ounces) and call options (5.1 million ounces) was bought back, embedded in seagull hedging structures, while the level of execution of sold call options for 2022 (6.6 million ounces) was raised.
	In terms of managing currency risk, the Parent Entity applies natural hedging by borrowing in currencies in which it has revenues. The value of bank and investment loans as at 30 June 2021 drawn in USD, following their conversion into PLN, amounted to PLN 2 919 million (as at 31 December 2020: PLN 4 321 million).
	As at 30 June 2021, the Parent Entity held open CIRS (Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap) transactions for the total notional amount of PLN 2 billion, hedging against market risk related to the issue of bonds in PLN with a variable interest rate. Debt due to bonds denominated in PLN generate currency risk due to the fact that most of the Parent Entity's sales revenue is denominated in USD.
	In the first half of 2021, none of the Group's mining subsidiaries implemented forward transactions on the metals and currency markets, and did not hold open positions as at 30 June 2021. There did exist risk related to metals prices involving derivatives embedded in long-term contracts for the supply of sulphuric acid and water.
	Some of the Group's Polish companies managed the currency risk related to their core businesses by opening derivative transactions on the currency market.
Interest rate risk	As at 30 June 2021, the balance of items exposed to interest rate risk by impacting the amount of interest income and costs was as follows:
	cash and cash equivalents: PLN 1 682 million, including the deposits of special purpose funds: the - Mine Closure Fund and the Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund, borrowings: PLN 118 million, -
	trade and similar payables (reverse factoring) PLN 839 million. -
	As at 30 June 2021, the balance of items exposed to interest rate risk due to changes in the fair value of instruments with fixed interest rates was as follows: receivables due to loans granted by the Group: PLN 19 million, - borrowings (i.e. bank and other loans drawn with fixed interest rates): PLN 3 177 million.
	- In the first half of 2021, the Parent Entity did not implement any transactions hedging against the risk of interest rate. As at 30 June 2021, it held open CIRS (Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap) transactions for the notional amount of PLN 2 billion, hedging against risk related to the issue of bonds in PLN with a variable interest rate.
Result on derivatives and hedging transactions	The total impact of derivatives and hedging instruments (transactions on the copper, silver, currency and interest rate markets as well as embedded derivatives and a USD-denominated loan designated as a hedge against a change in the exchange rate) on the Group's profit or loss in the first half of 2021 amounted to -PLN 895 million, of which:
	PLN 742 million decreased revenues from contracts with customers, - PLN 132 million decreased the result on other operating activities, - PLN 21 million decreased the result on financing activities (including: -PLN 17 million as an adjustment - of interest on borrowings).
	In addition, in the first half of 2021 other comprehensive income decreased by PLN 943 million (impact of hedging instruments).
	As at 30 June 2021, the fair value of open positions in derivatives of the Group (on the metals, currency and interest rate markets and in embedded derivatives) amounted to -PLN 1 510 million.
Risk related to the change in	Price risk related to the shares of listed companies held by the Group is understood as the change in their fair value due to changes in their quoted share prices.
share prices of listed companies	As at 30 June 2021, the carrying amount of shares of companies which were listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange and on the TSX Venture Exchange amounted to PLN 640 million.

Credit risk management

Credit risk is defined as the risk that counterparties will not be able to meet their contractual liabilities.

The Management Board is responsible for credit risk management in the Parent Entity and for compliance with policy in this regard. The main body involved in actions in this area is the Credit Risk Committee.

Credit risk related to trade receivables	To reduce the risk of insolvency by its customers, the Parent Entity has entered into a receivables insurance contract, which covers receivables from entities with open buyer's credit which have not provided strong collateral or have provided collateral which does not cover the total amount of the receivables. Taking into account the collateral held and the credit limits received from the insurance company, as at 30 June 2021 the Parent Entity had secured 82% of its trade receivables (as at 31 December 2020: 75%).
Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits	The Group allocates periodically free cash in accordance with the requirements to maintain financial liquidity and limit risk and in order to protect capital and maximise interest income.
	Credit risk related to deposit transactions is continuously monitored by the on-going review of the credit ratings of those financial institutions with which the Group cooperates, and by limitation of the level of concentration in individual institutions. As at 30 June 2021, the maximum share of a single entity in terms of credit risk arising from financial institutions in which the Group has deposited funds amounted to 23% (as at 31 December 2020: 25%).

Credit risk related
to trade
receivables

To reduce the risk of insolvency by its customers, the Parent Entity has entered into a receivables insurance
contract, which covers receivables from entities with open buyer's credit which have not provided strong collateral
or have provided collateral which does not cover the total amount of the receivables. Taking into account the
collateral held and the credit limits received from the insurance company, as at 30 June 2021 the Parent Entity
had secured 82% of its trade receivables (as at 31 December 2020: 75%).

Credit risk related
to cash and cash
equivalents and
bank deposits

The Group allocates periodically free cash in accordance with the requirements to maintain financial liquidity and
limit risk and in order to protect capital and maximise interest income.

Credit risk related to deposit transactions is continuously monitored by the on-going review of the credit ratings
of those financial institutions with which the Group cooperates, and by limitation of the level of concentration in
individual institutions. As at 30 June 2021, the maximum share of a single entity in terms of credit risk arising from
financial institutions in which the Group has deposited funds amounted to 23% (as at 31 December 2020: 25%).

Credit risk related to derivatives transactions	All of the entities with which the Group enters into derivative transactions (with the exception of embedded derivatives) operate in the financial sector. These are mainly financial institutions, with a medium-high rating.
	In 2021 the method of calculating the value exposed to credit risk related to derivatives was changed – instead of adding the net fair value, only receivables due to open derivatives (excluding embedded derivatives) are taken into account as well as receivables due to settled derivatives.
	As at 30 June 2021, the maximum share of a single entity in the amount exposed to credit risk arising from derivatives transactions amounted to 29% (at 31 December 2020: 32%; restated data).
	Despite the concentration of credit risk related to derivatives transactions, the Parent Entity believes that due to its cooperation with renowned financial institutions, as well as ongoing monitoring of their ratings, it is not materially exposed to credit risk as a result of transactions entered into with them.
Credit risk related to loans granted	As at 30 June 2021, the balance of loans granted by the Parent Entity amounted to PLN 9 408 million. The most important of these are long-term loans in the total amount of PLN 9 349 million granted to the company Future 1 and to the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group.
	As at 30 June 2021, the balance of loans granted by the Group amounted to PLN 8 011 million. The most important of these are long-term loans in the total amount of PLN 7 992 million, or USD 2 101 million, granted by the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group for the financing of a mining joint venture in Chile.
	Credit risk related to the loans granted to the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. is dependent on the risk related to mine project advancement and is assessed by the Management Board of the Parent Entity as moderate.

Management of financial liquidity risk and of capital

Important information regarding financial liquidity risk and capital management is presented in part 4 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

10. OTHER INFORMATION

10.1. Factors which, in the issuer's opinion, will impact its results over at least the following quarter

The most significant factors affecting the results achieved by the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, through the Parent Entity, including in particular over the following quarter, may be:

− a subsequent wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential for interruptions to the continuity of operations or restrictions in activities:
- − due to possible infections by the SARS-CoV-2 virus and increased absenteeism amongst employees of the core production line and/or a decrease in productivity,
- − due to interruptions in the materials and services supply chain and to logistical restrictions, especially as regards international transport,
- − due to restrictions on certain sales markets, a drop in demand and optimisation of inventories of raw materials and finished products amongst customers,
- − due to exceptional legal changes (e.g. special laws),
− volatility in copper and silver prices on the metals markets,
− volatility in the USD/PLN exchange rate,
− volatility in electrolytic copper production costs, including in particular due to the minerals extraction tax and as a result of changes in the value of consumed copper-bearing materials,
− the effects of the implemented hedging policy,
− the general uncertainty on financial markets, and
− the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis (e.g. a decrease or delay in revenues from exports).

The most significant factors affecting the results of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, through the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, including in particular in the following quarter, may be:

− similarly as in the case of the Parent Entity, the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential for interruptions to the continuity of operations or restrictions in activities,
− volatility in copper, silver, gold and molybdenum prices,
− volatility in the CLP/USD, CAD/USD and USD/PLN exchange rates,
− volatility in mined copper production costs,

Taking into consideration the risk of subsequent waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, there still remains uncertainty regarding the further development of the economic and social situation in Poland and globally.

The above may affect the results of the Group in subsequent quarters. It is not possible however to provide quantitative estimates of the potential impact of current conditions on the results of the KGHM Group. To date there has not been recorded a substantial, negative impact on the continuity of the Core Production Business, sales or the continuity of the materials and services supply chain. The possibility of the future, negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in these areas in subsequent quarters may not however be excluded, especially in the context of the conduct of operations under volatile supply and demand conditions.

An important factor for the domestic and global economies will be the potential improvement in the epidemic situation given the program of vaccinations and their effectiveness compared to newly-appearing strains of the virus, which would enable among others the further easing of restrictions in individual countries and sectors, a reduction in uncertainty as to future periods, or increasing activity amongst producers as well as consumers. The Parent Entity continuously monitors the global economic situation, in order to assess its potential negative impact on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and to take preventive actions to mitigate this impact.

10.2. Position of the Management Board with respect to the possibility of achieving previously published forecasts of results

KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. does not publish forecasts of financial results.

The amount of the claim (principal amount) was set by the Plaintiffs in the claim in the amount of approx. PLN 42 million (principal amount without interest and court costs) and interest as at 31 March 2019 amounted to approx. PLN 55 million. On 21 January 2008, in the response to the claim, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. requested the dismissal of the claim in its entirety and filed a counter claim for the repayment of undue royalties paid for the 6th and 7th year of application of invention project no. 1/97/KGHM, together with interest due, also invoking the right of mutual set-off of claims. The amount of the claim (principal amount) in the counter claim was set by the Company in the amount of approx. PLN 25 million. In a judgment dated 25 September 2018, the Regional Court in Legnica dismissed the counter claim and partially upheld the principal claim to the total amount of approx. PLN 24 million, and at the same time ordered the payment of interest in the amount of approx. PLN 30 million, totalling to amount of PLN 54 million. Both parties to the proceedings appealed against this judgment. In a judgment dated 12 June 2019, the Court of Appeal in Wrocław dismissed the appeals of both sides, altering the judgment of the court of first instance solely in the matter of the resolution of court costs from the hearings at the court of first instance and charging them to KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. The judgment is binding and was executed by KGHM on 18-19 June 2019. KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. filed a cassation appeal against the judgment of the court of second instance, i.e. with respect to the partially upheld principal claim in the amount of approx. PLN 24 million as well as with respect to the dismissed counter-claim in the amount of approx. PLN 25 million. The date of the hearing regarding admission of the cassation appeal to be heard has not yet been set. In accordance with the Company's position, the plaintiffs' claim should be dismissed in its entirety and the counter claim is justified. The Company in this regard paid the authors of the project royalties for a longer period of application of the project than anticipated in the initial contract entered into by the parties on advancing the

invention project, based on an annex to the contract, extending the period of payment of royalties, whose validity is questioned by the Company. Moreover, the Company is questioning the "rationalisation" nature of the solutions, as well as whether they were in fact used in their entirety, and also their completeness and suitability for use in the form supplied by the Plaintiffs as well as the means of calculating the economic effects of this solution, which were the basis for paying the royalties.
