KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. ("the Parent Entity", "the Company") with its registered office in Lubin at 48 M.Skłodowskiej-Curie Street is a joint stock company registered at the Regional Court for Wrocław Fabryczna, Section IX (Economic) of the National Court Register, entry no. KRS 23302, on the territory of the Republic of Poland.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. has a multi-divisional organisational structure, comprised of a Head Office and 10 divisions: 3 mines (Lubin Mine Division, Polkowice-Sieroszowice Mine Division, Rudna Mine Division), 3 metallurgical plants (Głogów Smelter/Refinery, Legnica Smelter/Refinery, Cedynia Wire Rod Division), the Concentrator Division, the Tailings Division, the Mine-Smelter Emergency Rescue Division and the Data Center Division.
The shares of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. are listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
The Parent Entity's principal activities include:
The business activities of the Group include:
The KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group (the KGHM Group) carries out exploration for and mining of copper, nickel and precious metals based on concessions for Polish deposits held by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., and also based on legal titles held by companies of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group for the exploration for and mining of these resources in the USA, Canada, and Chile.
In the current quarter KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. consolidated 71 subsidiaries and used the equity method to account for the shares of two joint ventures (Sierra Gorda S.C.M. and NANO CARBON Sp. z o.o. in liquidation).

The percentage share represents the total share of the Group.
* An entity excluded from consolidation due to immaterial impact on the consolidated financial statements

The following exchange rates were applied in the conversion to EUR of selected financial data:
*the rates represent the arithmetic average of current average exchange rates announced by the NBP on the last day of each month during the period from January to September respectively of 2020 and 2019.
The following quarterly report includes:
Neither the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2020 and as at 30 September 2020 nor the condensed separate financial statements for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2020 and as at 30 September 2020 were subject to audit by a certified auditor.
The consolidated quarterly report for the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 September 2020 was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as approved by the European Union and for a full understanding of the financial position and operating results of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, should be read jointly with the Annual Report R 2019 and the Consolidated annual report RS 2019.
This quarterly report's financial statements were prepared using the same accounting policies and valuation methods for the current and comparable periods and principles applied in annual financial statements (consolidated and separate), prepared as at 31 December 2019.
The Group is bound by the following amendments to standards from 1 January 2020:
Up to the date of publication of these consolidated financial statements, the aforementioned amendments to the standards were adopted for use by the European Union. In the Group's opinion, these standards will be applicable to the Group's activities in the scope of future economic operations, transactions or other events, towards which these amendments to standards are applicable. However, in the Group's opinion, this impact will not be significant, taking into account adopted amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 on the interest rate benchmark reform with respect to hedge accounting.
In the first three quarters of 2020, the COVID-19 (coronavirus) epidemic was still spreading across the world, and its impact was noticeable in many areas. Among others, due to the coronavirus market indices drastically fell.
The share price of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the first nine months of 2020 initially fell to PLN 49.40 (share price on 12 March 2020) or a decrease by 48% as compared to the share price from the end of 2019 and then rose to PLN 118.00 as at 30 September 2020. During the same period the WIG and WIG20 indices fell by 36% and 39% as compared to 31 December 2019 and by 15% and 20% as compared to 30 September 2020, respectively. As a result, the Company's market capitalisation increased from PLN 19 116 million to PLN 23 600 million, and therefore as at 30 September 2020 it was 12.23% above the value of the net assets of the Group. After the end of the reporting period, according to the closing price as at 17 November 2020, the share price of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. amounted to PLN 142.60 and the Company's market capitalisation was still higher than the value of the net assets of the Group.
The drop in share prices caused by the COVID-19 epidemic affected share prices of companies in the majority of sectors, in many economic sectors, and reflected investor uncertainty as to the future. This was confirmed by the increase in the value of typically conservative instruments such as gold and the exchange rates of certain currencies.
From the point of view of the Company's operations, the key factor is first and foremost the copper price. At the start of the epidemic, this metal was substantially undervalued. As at 31 December 2019, the price of copper amounted to 6 156 USD/t. During the reporting period, as at 23 March 2020 the copper price had fallen to 4 617 USD/t, but nonetheless, as time passed, with the inflow of more hopeful information as respects demand for this commodity, prices returned to their level at the start of 2020 and on 30 September 2020 the copper price reached the level of 6 610 USD/t.
The share prices of companies involved in the mining and processing of copper are strongly correlated with the price of this metal. The decrease in the market capitalisation of companies in this sector, including KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., was therefore of a temporary nature, and reflected the initial panic of investors related with the coronavirus pandemic and the associated drop in the prices of the major metals. Once it became evident that the pandemic would not have a significant impact, on either the production or sales of these entities, share prices returned to their former levels.
It is also worth mentioning that in the case of the Polish assets, of significance are PLN-expressed metals prices, which are also affected by the USD/PLN exchange rate. Fluctuations in the price of copper related to the volatility on the financial markets, whose origins may often be found not only in macroeconomics but also in geopolitics, are usually to a large extent offset by changes in the USD/PLN exchange rate.
Since the outbreak of the pandemic at the turn of February and March 2020, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. has maintained full operational capability and is advancing its production and sales plans.
With respect to the international mining assets, the epidemic had an impact on the operating results, mainly due to the decrease in copper and molybdenum prices in the first and second quarters of 2020. It should be noted that only KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. experienced a decrease in EBITDA, but in this case the situation on the copper market was not the main reason behind the decrease in revenues.
The epidemic situation in Chile had an impact on the realisation of the sale schedule of copper produced by Sierra Gorda S.C.M. Due to slowdowns in the port of Antofagasta, shipments of some of parties of copper were rescheduled from the first to the second quarter of 2020, which in addition to lower prices contributed to the achievement of relatively weak results in the first quarter of 2020. Nevertheless it should be noted that in the second quarter of 2020 the situation had significantly improved, meaning that the EBITDA achieved by Sierra Gorda S.C.M. in the first half of 2020 was (in PLN) 23% higher than in the corresponding period of 2019 and close to budget targets. In the third quarter of 2020, market conditions have significantly improved despite the on-going epidemic threat. Metal prices increased, which resulted in improved financial results by the international mining assets.
There were no production slowdowns recorded in KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. or in any of the international mines of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group or Sierra Gorda S.C.M. which could be directly attributable to the pandemic.
As a result of the assessment, there were no indications identified suggesting the risk of impairment of assets related to activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in Poland and abroad.
Due to the uncertainty and the significant volatility of basic economic parameters, including metals prices and currency exchange rates, and dynamic development of the epidemiological situation in Poland and globally, and its impact on the economic situation, the Company is continuously monitoring the global situation in order to assess its potential impact on the Group.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic had a substantial impact on the Group's secondary activities with respect to the providing of spa services by the following companies (CGUs): Uzdrowiska Kłodzkie S.A. - Grupa PGU, Uzdrowisko Połczyn Grupa PGU S.A., Uzdrowisko Cieplice Sp. z o.o. - Grupa PGU, Uzdrowisko Świeradów - Czerniawa Sp. z o.o. – Grupa PGU and as at 30 June 2020, the Group performed impairment testing of assets of spa companies and recognised an impairment loss in the amount of PLN 71 million. Assumptions adopted for impairment testing of assets of companies of the Group which provide spa services and results of the tests as at 30 June 2020 were presented in the Consolidated halfyear report PSr 2020.
As at 30 September 2020, the analysis to determine the risk of an impairment of these assets which included the verification of discount rates, sale volumes, margins and forecasted cash flows comprised of, among others, expected capital expenditures and working capital, confirmed that assumptions used by the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group to assess the non-current assets of spa companies as at 30 June 2020 are up to date.
As at 30 September 2020, the analysis conducted by the Group did not provide a basis to recognise an additional impairment loss to the ones recognised as at 30 June 2020.
As at 30 June 2020, due to indications of the possibility of changes in the recoverable amount of the property, plant and equipment of the company POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o., the Management Board of the Parent Entity performed impairment testing of these assets. The key indication to perform a test was a loss for the first half of 2020, deviating from the financial results assumed for that period.
The carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. as at 30 June 2020 amounted to PLN 246 million. For the purpose of estimating the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the value in use of property, plant and equipment was measured using the DCF method, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.
| Basic assumptions adopted for impairment testing | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assumption | Level adopted in testing | |||
| Detailed forecast period | 07.2020-12.2024 | |||

As a result of the impairment testing of the property, plant and equipment of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o., the recoverable amount of the tested assets was determined to be at the level of PLN 225 million, which was lower than the carrying amount of these assets, which gave a basis to recognise an impairment loss in the amount of PLN 21 million.
The measurement of the property, plant and equipment of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. indicates a significant sensitivity to the adopted discount rates and operating margin. The following table presents the impact of changes to these parameters on the measurement of the assets.
Sensitivity analysis of the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o.
| The recoverable amount for a given discount rate | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|

| lower by 1 pp. | per test | higher by 1 pp. | ||
| Operating margin 0.3%, 1.9% in residual value (test) | 120 | 225 | 329 |
In order to monitor the risk of impairment of property, plant and equipment in subsequent reporting periods, it was determined that the recoverable amount would be equal to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment if the discount rate were to decrease to 4.44% or if the operating margin were to increase by 0.2 pp.
As at 30 September 2020, realisation of the financial results of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. was analysed once more, and as a result it was determined there is an indication of a possible change in the recoverable amount of the property, plant and equipment of the company. The loss for the first 9 months of 2020 deviated from the financial results assumed for that period and provided a basis to conduct a test for impairment of these assets.
The carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. as at 30 September 2020 amounted to PLN 232 million. For the purpose of estimating the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the value in use of property, plant and equipment was measured using the DCF method, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.

In order to monitor the risk of impairment of property, plant and equipment in subsequent reporting periods, it was determined that the recoverable amount would be equal to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment if the discount rate were to increase to 4.65% or if the operating margin were to decrease by 0.01 pp.
EVALUATION OF RISK OF THE IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS OF THE COMPANY INTERFERIE S.A. IN THE CONTEXT OF MARKET CAPITALISATION – Segment – Other segments
The market capitalisation of the subsidiary INTERFERIE S.A. in the first nine months of 2020 was below the carrying amount of the company's net assets, which in accordance with the adopted accounting policy was recognised by the company to be an indication to perform impairment testing of the company's assets (the carrying amount of the tested assets was PLN 139 million).
Due to the emergence at the end of 2019 in China of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its subsequent global spread, the management board of the company INTERFERIE S.A. is continuously monitoring the global economic situation and the potential negative impact on the INTERFERIE Group. Restrictions related to the impossibility of providing hotel services were laid down in the Decree of the Council of Ministers dated 31 March 2020 establishing specified restrictions, orders and bans. Due to the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in the first quarter of 2020 a decision was made to temporarily suspend activities in the company's facilities. The subsequent impact of this situation on its activities, i.e. a possible decrease in the sale of services, and therefore worsening of liquidity and the financial result, was announced by the unit via regulatory filings.
On 16 March 2020, activities of two of the facilities of this company, i.e. in Świeradów Zdrój and Kołobrzeg, were temporarily suspended. The management board of INTERFERIE S.A., following a detailed analysis of the situation, determined that in these two facilities it was not possible to reorganise the services provided to clients to be compliant with the Decree of the Minister of Health dated 13 March 2020. Following the hotel checkout on 21 March 2020, the activities of INTERFERIE in Ustronie Morskie Leisure and Sanatorium CECHSZTYN were temporarily suspended until further notice.
The next facility suspended from operations was Hotel BORNIT in Szklarska Poręba, in which, until further notice, activities were temporarily suspended on 23 March 2020. Suspension of this company's facilities resulted in a decrease in the number of sold person/days ratio from 296.1 thousand in the first nine months of 2019 to 136.3 thousand in the first nine months of 2020, or by 54%. Revenues from sales for the first nine months of 2020 amounted to PLN 19 460 thousand and decreased, as compared to the first nine months of 2019, by 48%. Total comprehensive income for the first nine months of 2020 amounted to PLN (6 769) thousand as compared to PLN 4 280 thousand for the first nine months of 2019.
Restrictions to the company's activities, which resulted in the decrease in revenues, also impacted the following sectors of the company's activities: MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions), the large conferences sector, camps, green schools, swimming pool services, night club services and discoteque services.
In order to assess the impairment, the Company identified the following CGUs: INTERFERIE in Ustronie Morskie – Leisure and Sanatorium Cechsztyn, INTERFERIE in Kołobrzeg Leisure and Sanatorium Chalkozyn, INTERFERIE in Dąbki Sanatorium Argentyt, INTERFERIE in Świeradów Zdrój – Hotel Malachit, INTERFERIE Hotel in Głogów and INTERFERIE Hotel Bornit in Szklarska Poręba. In order to assess the impairment, the fair value of the assets was estimated on the basis of the sum of future cash flows of individual CGUs discounted by the rate estimated on the basis of ratios used by the hotel industry, with the exception of CGU INTERFERIE Hotel in Głogów, CGU INTERFERIE Hotel Bornit in Szklarska Poręba and INTERFERIE in Świeradów Zdrój – Hotel Malachit, for which the fair value was determined on the basis of valuation reports.
The fair value was classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company conducted impairment testing with the following assumptions:
As a result of the impairment testing conducted on the company's assets, the estimated recoverable amount of the assets was determined to be higher than their carrying amount, which did not provide a basis to recognise an impairment loss.
| CGU | Carrying amount /PLN mn/ | Recoverable amount /PLN mn/ |
|---|---|---|
| INTERFERIE in Ustronie Morskie - Leisure and Sanatorium Cechsztyn |
10 | 15 |
| INTERFERIE in Kołobrzeg Leisure and Sanatorium Chalkozyn |

22 | 25 |
| INTERFERIE Hotel Bornit in Szklarska Poręba |
24 | 25 |
| INTERFERIE Hotel in Głogów | 2 | 2 |
The company's share price results from, among others, their low liquidity (which is related to stable share ownership), and the on-going process of rebuilding the company's value.
The measurement indicated a significant sensitivity of fair value to the adopted discount rates, the volatility of operating profit during the forecast period and the growth rate following the forecast period of the following CGUs:

Following are the key achievements in the third quarter of 2020 with respect to strategic programs and projects being advanced under individual areas of the Strategy:
| Strategic area/ Programs and projects |
Degree of advancement | |
|---|---|---|
| PRODUCTION | ||
| Selected actions aimed at improving the efficiency of the core production line in Poland |
The advancement of projects aimed at automatisation of production in the Mining Divisions of KGHM, under the KGHM 4.0 program in the area INDUSTRY, was continued: "The placement and identification of machinery and persons in underground mines" – the system was launched as a pilot version and was built and handed over for operation. The process of gathering user opinions is underway in order to develop a report, based on which further decisions will be taken. "Broad-band data transmission in underground mines". This project is being advanced in the mining divisions, where a total of 78 Wi-Fi access points have been constructed. In September 2020 completion of the process of starting up the equipment was completed. "Monitoring of utilities – power, ventilation, water". Work continued on advancing the project – the process of procurement was carried out along with negotiations with bidders. "Robotisation of production and auxiliary processes" - construction of a CuXRF robot for scanning for copper content at the working faces. The process is underway of signing an agreement with the National Centre for Nuclear Research for the modernisation of the x-ray head, a prototype made specially for use on the robot. Tender procedures are underway to create an electric, battery-powered mobile platform for the CuXRF robot. Following its completion a tender will be launched to build the robotic arm and to integrate all of the robotic elements. "Center of Advanced Data Analysis (Centrum Zaawansowanych Danych Analitycznych - CZAD)". The algorithms involving analysis of the loads borne by the conveyor belts in the mines, developed by KGHM Cuprum, were positively verified by the users. In the second and third quarters of 2020 the functioning of the algorithms on actual data on the servers of KGHM CUPRUM was tested. Work is underway on implementing these analytics in the divisions of KGHM. For identified projects deemed to have substantial potential to receive energy efficiency certificates, two energy efficiency audits were performed, with another three being near completion. Changes were made in the PN-EN ISO50001:2012-compliant Energy Management System (EMS) to ensure its compliance with the new PN-EN ISO 50001:2018-09 standard. The effectiveness of the actions taken was confirmed by a certificate issued by an authorised body |
|
| (UDT Cert) during the process of re-certifying KGHM's EMS. |
| As part of the development of KGHM's Integrated Management System, which includes the EMS (compliant with ISO 50001:2018) and the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (compliant with ISO 45001:2015), actions were initiated aimed at improving EMS procedures, including their integration with the OHS Management System procedures. |

| FINANCIAL STABILITY | |
| Basing the KGHM Group's financing |
Centralisation of external financing at the level of the Parent Entity resulted in extending the average weighted maturity of the entire KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group's external debt. |
| structure on long term instruments |
The financial needs of companies in the KGHM Group are met through the use of intra-Group cash transfers. These processes are based mainly on management of the current liquidity of the KGHM Group, based on the cash pooling tool, which substantially increases the effectiveness of financial management for the KGHM Group, as well as on long-term owner loans, and on bonds with a long maturity period. |
| Shortening of the cash conversion cycle |

The Parent Entity and the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group (a subgroup) have a fundamental impact on the assets and the generation of revenues in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group. The activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. are concentrated on the mining industry in Poland, while those of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group are concentrated on the mining industry in the countries of North and South America. The profile of activities of the majority of the remaining subsidiaries of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group differs from the main profile of the Parent Entity's activities.
The Parent Entity's Management Board monitors the operating results of individual segments in order to make decisions on allocating the Group's resources and assess the financial results achieved.
Financial data prepared for management reporting purposes is based on the same accounting policies as those applied when preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Group, while the financial data of individual reporting segments constitutes the amounts presented in appropriate financial statements prior to consolidation adjustments at the level of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, i.e.:
The Management Board of the Parent Entity assesses a segment's performance based on adjusted EBITDA and the profit or loss for the period.
The Group defines adjusted EBITDA as profit/loss for the period pursuant to IFRS, excluding income tax (current and deferred), finance income and costs, other operating income and costs, the share of losses of joint ventures accounted for using the equity method, impairment losses on interest in a joint venture, depreciation/amortisation and impairment losses on property, plant and equipment included in the cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA – as a financial indicator not defined by IFRSs – is not a standardised measure and therefore its method of calculation may vary between entities, and consequently the presentation and calculation of adjusted EBITDA applied by the Group may not be comparable to that applied by other market entities.
Unallocated assets and liabilities concern companies which have not been allocated to any segment. Assets which have not been allocated to the segments comprise cash, trade receivables and deferred tax assets. Liabilities which have not been allocated to the segments comprise trade liabilities and current corporate tax liabilities.

In the first 9 months of 2020, there was a decrease in ore extraction (dry weight) as compared to the corresponding period of 2019. Copper content in ore decreased to 1.50% due to lower content and thickness of the mined deposit. Copper production in concentrate decreased by approx. 8.1 thousand tonnes as compared to the first nine months of 2019 as a result of processing a lower amount of lower quality feed.
As compared to the corresponding period of 2019, there was a decrease in electrolytic copper production by 15.7 thousand tonnes. Cathode production decreased due to a limited supply of copper scrap in the first half and accumulating anode inventories, which was necessary to ensure the continuity of production during the maintenance shutdown at the Głogów I Copper Smelter and Refinery.
Production of metallic silver was lower because of a decrease in cathode production.

Revenues after the first three quarters of 2020 amounted to PLN 13 360 million and were higher than in the corresponding period of 2019 by 2%. The main factors behind this increase in revenues were: a PLN 160 million higher adjustment to revenues due to hedging transactions, a more favourable USD/PLN exchange rate (+3%) and higher silver (+22%) and gold (+27%) prices.

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 cost and the value of by-product premiums, calculated for sold payable copper in concentrate.
The Parent Entity's cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses (cost of products, merchandise and materials sold, selling costs and administrative expenses) for the first nine months of 2020 amounted to PLN 11 204 million and were higher by 1.2% as compared to the corresponding period of 2019 due to the utilisation of inventories from prior periods, which enabled the sale of a higher volume of products. Moreover, the cost of sales was higher due to the purchase of medical supplies.
In the first 9 months of 2020, total expenses by nature were lower by PLN 35 million as compared to the first nine months of 2019, alongside a minerals extraction tax lower by PLN 72 million due to a change in the methodology of calculating the tax from 1 July 2019 and lower costs of consumption of purchased metal-bearing materials by PLN 14 million (due to a 0.8 thousand tonnes of copper lower volume of consumption alongside a 0.8% higher purchase price).
The increase in expenses by nature, excluding the purchased metal-bearing materials and the minerals extraction tax, amounted to PLN 51 million and resulted mainly from the increase in labour costs by PLN 116 million (increase in remuneration) and higher costs of energy and energy carriers by PLN 44 million (in 2019 energy costs were decreased by the compensation for energy price rises).
C1 cost for the first 9 months of 2020 amounted to 1.60 USD/lb and was lower than in the corresponding period of 2019 by 6.4%. The decrease in the cost was mainly caused by the strengthening of the US dollar versus the Polish zloty (+2.8%), a lower minerals extraction tax charge (first 9 months of 2019: 0.49 USD/lb; first 9 months of 2020: 0.43 USD/lb) and the higher value of by-products due to an increase in the prices of precious metals.
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 25 618 PLN/t (in the comparable period of 2019: 24 895 PLN/t) and was higher by 2.9% alongside lower production from own concentrate by 8.3%. The pre-precious metals credit unit cost of electrolytic copper production from own concentrate, excluding the minerals extraction tax, amounted to 21 954 PLN/t (in the corresponding period of 2019: 20 893 PLN/t).
The total unit cost of electrolytic copper production from own concentrate amounted to 17 201 PLN/t and was lower by 5.3% as compared to the first nine months of 2019 due to the higher value of associated metals (higher prices of silver and gold).

Copper production in the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the first nine months of 2020 amounted to 49.2 thousand tonnes, or a decrease by 8.3 thousand tonnes (-14%) compared to the corresponding period of 2019, as a result of a decrease in production by the Franke, Robinson and Sudbury Basin mines.
The decrease in copper production in the Franke mine from 14.3 thousand tonnes in the first three quarters of 2019 to 9.2 thousand tonnes in the first three quarters of 2020 was due to the extraction of lower quality ore and lower recovery as well as to a strike in this mine in May 2020.
The decrease in copper production by the Robinson mine by 1.9 thousand tonnes (-5%) and gold by 8.2 thousand troy ounces (-22%) was due to extraction of ore with lower metal content as well as due to lower recovery (both of copper and gold). The impact of these factors on the level of production was partially offset by an increase in the volume of ore processed.
The decrease in copper production in the Sudbury Basin mines by 1.8 thousand tonnes (-53%) was the result of a decrease in the volume of ore extraction due to the suspension of extraction from the Morrison deposit after the first quarter of 2019 as well as to a decrease in the copper content in ore. Production of precious metals was at a level similar to that recorded in the first 9 months of 2019.

1) reflects processing premium
The revenues of the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. after the first three quarters of 2020 amounted to USD 515 million, or a decrease by USD 86 million (-14%), mainly because of a decrease in revenues from sales of services by companies acting under the DMC Mining Services ("DMC") brand by USD 101 million. This factor was partially offset by an increase in revenues from sales of precious metals.
The revenues from copper sales in the first 9 months of 2020 amounted to USD 293 million, and therefore remained at a level similar to the one recorded in the corresponding period of 2019. The sales of this metal increased by 0.8 thousand tonnes (+2%), but its impact on revenues was limited by the 2% lower effective sales price (5 871 USD/t in the first three quarters of 2020 as compared to 5 982 USD/t in the first three quarters of 2019).
The increase in revenues from precious metals sales by USD 19 million was due to an increase in the volume of sales by 5.1 thousand troy ounces (+10%) and to higher prices of gold and palladium.
The decrease in revenues from sales of services by DMC from USD 210 million in the first 9 months of 2019 to USD 109 million in the first 9 months of 2020 was due to a conclusion on 28 August 2020 of a contract related to a project advanced in the United Kingdom.

The average weighted unit cash cost of copper production for all mines in the segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the first three quarters of 2020 amounted to 1.87 USD/lb, and therefore increased by 5% as compared to the corresponding period of 2019. The C1 cost increased because of higher cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses of mines. This factor was partially offset by an increased volume of copper sales and the higher revenues from sales of associated metals (+22%), which decrease this cost.

In the first nine months of 2020, revenues amounted to USD 774 million and were higher than the ones achieved in the corresponding period of 2019 by 8%. It should be stressed however, that the strike of the Antofagasta port's employees, which took place in September 2020, caused delays in shipping concentrate and therefore the sale volume of copper (103 thousand tonnes) was lower than the amount produced (109 thousand tonnes).
Molybdenum sales recorded a decrease in revenues by 48%, which was mainly caused by lower production and lower molybdenum prices.
The above table includes the final and adjusted – as compared to the amounts presented in the Management Board's Report on the activities of the Group in the first half of 2020 – data on revenues from sales of copper and molybdenum for the second quarter of 2020. The total amount of revenues did not change.
The detailed impact of individual factors on changes in revenues is described in the subsection discussing the financial results of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
The cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses incurred by the company Sierra Gorda S.C.M. amounted to USD 680 million, including selling costs of USD 49 million and administrative expenses of USD 28 million. The costs of the segment Sierra Gorda, proportionally to the interest held (55%) amounted to PLN 1 470 million.

The cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses expressed in USD million was higher by USD 27 million (+4%) than that recorded in the first nine months of 2019. At the same time, the volume of copper sales (+23%) was higher.
Apart from the increase in production and sales, amongst the factors most responsible for the higher costs were depreciation/amortisation (+47%), including mainly with respect to capitalised stripping (removal of overburden) due to the start of amortisation of a new zone and to a change in mining assumptions (a shortening of the extraction timetable for one of the mine zones compared to the plan).
Cost were decreased in the following main categories:
Other costs were not substantially different from the amounts recorded in the corresponding period of 2019.
The unit cash cost of copper production (C1) amounted to 1.24 USD/lb, or a decrease by 11% compared to the first three quarters of 2019, despite lower revenues from the sale of associated metals, which reduce this cost.
Alongside an increase in copper prices in the third quarter of 2020, there was a further improvement of operating results of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. As the result, the adjusted EBITDA for the first 9 months of 2020 amounted to USD 360 million, of which proportionally to the interest held (55%) PLN 779 million relates to the KGHM Group.

The increase in the volume of copper sales, and realised copper prices and the improvement in cost efficiency (lower unit cost of mining, recovery and C1) offset the negative impact of extracting ore with a lower molybdenum content as well as the lower prices of this metal. As a result, EBITDA was higher by 46% compared to the amount recorded in the first three quarters of 2019.
A summary of the major factors affecting revenues and costs, and therefore EBITDA and profit or loss, is presented in the following table.

mn PLN | 376 | 463 | (18.8) | 120 | 106 | 150 |
The decrease in cash expenditures (expressed in USD) by USD 45 million, or 21%, was due to capitalised stripping costs (-USD 46 million) due to the smaller scope of work carried out, lower unit cost and, to a lesser extent, expenditures on replacements (-USD 14 million), mainly due to deferral of the investment schedule. Development expenditures were higher than those incurred in the corresponding period of 2019 by USD 15 million.
The main source of financing investments was the inflow from operating activities and bank loans, including a bank loan granted by Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego (USD 200 million). Due to the uncertainty on the copper market in the initial months of 2020, Sierra Gorda S.C.M. also required Owner financing, which amounted to USD 95 million (USD 80 million in the corresponding period of 2019).

Shares are measured based on quotations from the Warsaw Stock Exchange and the TSX Venture Exchange in Toronto.
Unquoted shares are measured using the adjusted net assets. Observable Input data other than the ones from the active market were used in the measurement (e.g. transaction prices of real estate similar to the one subjected to measurement, market interest rates of State Treasury bonds and term deposits in financial institutions, and the riskfree discount rate published by the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority).
Receivables arising from the realisation of sales under contracts which are finally settled using future prices were measured using forward prices, depending on the period/month of contractual quoting. Forward prices are from the Reuters system.
The fair value of trade receivables transferred to factoring, due to the short term between the transfer of receivables to the factor and their payment and to the low credit risk of the counterparty (factor), includes an adjustment by the amount of transaction costs, which are the factor's compensation, and therefore corresponds to the amount of trade receivables transferred to the factor (nominal value from the invoice) less interest.
Receivables/payables due to the settlement of derivatives, whose date of payment falls two working days after the end of the reporting period were recognised in this item. These instruments were measured to fair value set per the reference price applied in the settlement of these transactions.
In the case of currency derivatives transactions on the currency market and currency-interest transactions (CIRS), the forward prices from the maturity dates of individual transactions were used to determine their fair value. The forward price for currency exchange rates was calculated on the basis of fixing and appropriate interest rates. Interest rates for currencies and the volatility ratios for exchange rates were taken from the Reuters system. The standard Garman-Kohlhagen model is used to measure European options on currency markets.
In the case of derivatives on the commodity market, forward prices from the maturity dates of individual transactions were used to determine their fair value. In the case of copper, official closing prices from the London Metal Exchange were used, and with respect to silver and gold - the fixing price set by the London Bullion Market Association. Volatility ratios and forward prices for measurement of derivatives at the end of the reporting period were obtained from the Reuters system. Levy approximation to the Black-Scholes model was used for Asian options pricing on metals markets.
No financial instruments were measured at fair value which were classified to level 3 in either the reporting or the comparable period in the Group.
There was no transfer in the Group of financial instruments between individual levels of the fair value hierarchy, in either the reporting or the comparable periods.
The Group does not disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortised cost in the statement of financial position, because it makes use of the exemption arising from IFRS 7, paragraph 29.
In managing commodity, currency and interest rate risk, the scale and profile of activities of the Parent Entity and of the mining companies of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group is of the greatest significance for, and has the greatest impact on the results of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group.
The Parent Entity actively manages market risk by taking actions and making decisions in this regard within the context of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group's global exposure.
The primary technique used by the Group in market risk management is the use of hedging strategies involving derivatives. Natural hedging is also used. The Parent Entity applies hedging transactions, as understood by hedge accounting.
The impact of derivatives and hedging transactions on the items in the statement of profit or loss of the Group and on the items in the statement of comprehensive income is presented below.

The management of market risk in the Parent Entity, and especially the management of the risk of changes in metals prices, exchange rates and interest rates, should be considered through an analysis of the hedging position together with the position being hedged (hedged position). A hedging position is understood as the Parent Entity's position in derivatives. A hedged position is comprised of highly probable, future cash flows (revenues from the physical sale of products).
In the first three quarters of 2020, copper sales of the Parent Entity amounted to 405 thousand tonnes (net sales of 284 thousand tonnes)1 , however, the notional amount of copper price hedging strategies settled in this period amounted to 139.5 thousand tonnes, which represented approx. 34% of the total sales of this metal realised by the Parent Entity and approx. 49% of net sales in this period (in the first three quarters of 2019, 21% and 29% respectively). The notional amount of settled silver price hedging transactions represented 8% of revenues from sales of this metal by the Parent Entity. In the case of currency hedging transactions, approx. 29% of revenues from copper and silver sales realised by the Parent Entity in the first three quarters of 2020 (20% - in the first three quarters of 2019) were hedged.
As part of the realisation of the strategic plan to hedge the Company against market risk, in the third quarter of 2020 seagull hedging strategies were implemented on the copper market for a total notional amount of 138 thousand tonnes and with maturities falling from January 2021 to December 2022. In addition, an open hedge position on the
1 Copper sales less copper in purchased metal-bearing materials.
copper market was restructured. Sold put options were bought back with a strike price of 4 000 USD/t for a total notional amount of 84 thousand tonnes entered into in prior periods under a seagull strategy hedging revenues from the sale of copper in 2021. Therefore, a portion of the seagull options structures open on the copper market were transformed into collar-type structures. In the third quarter of 2020 the Company also hedged revenues from the sale of silver for a total notional amount of 24.6 million ounces. Seagull hedging strategies were implemented with maturities falling from January 2021 to December 2023. In terms of managing currency risk, the Company restructured an open hedge position. Seagull options structures were closed for a notional amount of USD 90 million with maturities falling from January 2022 to December 2023. At the same time sold call options were bought back with prices of USDPLN 4.30 and 4.40 for a total notional amount of USD 780 million and with maturities falling from January 2021 to December 2021, entered into previously under seagull options structures. Therefore time these structures were transformed into put spread-type structures.
In the third quarter of 2020, the Parent Entity did not enter into any hedging transactions on the forward interest rate market.
As at 30 September 2020, the Parent Entity held an open derivatives position for 297.8 thousand tonnes of copper (of which 289.5 thousand tonnes arose from the strategic management of market risk, while 8.3 thousand tonnes came from the management of a net trading position), 25.5 million troy ounces of silver, 12.5 thousand ounces of gold (adjustment transactions) and USD 1 650 million of planned revenues from sales of metals. Furthermore, as at 30 September 2020 the Parent Entity had open Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (CIRS) transactions in the notional amount of PLN 2 billion, hedging against market risk connected with the issuance of bonds in PLN with a variable interest rate2 , and bank and other loans with fixed interest rates. Commodity risk was also related to derivatives embedded in the purchase contracts for metal-bearing materials.
With respect to managing currency risk, the Parent Entity uses natural hedging by borrowing in currencies in which it has revenues. As at 30 September 2020, the bank and investment loans which were drawn in USD, following their translation to PLN, amounted to PLN 4 504 million (as at 31 December 2019: PLN 4 980 million).
In the third quarter of 2020, none of the Group's mining subsidiaries had implemented any forward transactions on the commodity market or the interest rate market, and did not hold an open position on this market as at 30 September 2020. The risk of changes in metals prices was related to 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 business by opening transactions in derivatives on the currency market. A listing of the open transactions of Polish companies as at 30 September 2020 is not presented due to its immateriality for the Group.
Condensed tables of open transactions in derivatives held by the Parent Entity as at 30 September 2020, entered into as part of the strategic management of market risk, are presented below. The hedged notional amounts of transactions on the copper, silver and currency markets in the presented periods are allocated evenly on a monthly basis.

All entities with which derivative transactions (excluding embedded derivatives) were entered into by the Group operated in the financial sector.
Taking into consideration the fair value of open derivative transactions entered into by the Group and of unsettled derivatives, as at 30 September 2020 the maximum single entity share of the amount exposed to credit risk arising from these transactions amounted to 42%, or PLN 240 million (as at 31 December 2019: 15%, or PLN 49 million)4 .
In order to reduce cash flows and at the same time to limit credit risk, the Parent Entity carries out net settlements (based on framework agreements entered into with its customers) to the level of the positive balance of measurement of transactions in derivatives with a given counterparty. Moreover, the resulting credit risk is continuously monitored by the review of the credit ratings and is limited by striving to diversify the portfolio while implementing hedging strategies.
The following table presents the structure of ratings of the financial institutions with which the Group entered into derivatives transactions, representing an exposure to credit risk.
| Rating level | As at 30 September 2020 |
As at 31 December 2019 |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| from AAA to AA- according to S&P and Fitch, | |||
| Highest | and from Aaa to Aa3 according to Moody's | - | 2% |
| Medium-high | from A+ to A- according to S&P and Fitch, | 98% | 90% |
| and from A1 to A3 according to Moody's | |||
| from BBB+ to BBB- according to S&P and Fitch, | |||
| Medium | and from Baa1 to Baa3 according to Moody's | 2% | 8% |
3 Collar structures, i.e. purchased put options and sold call option were designated as hedging under seagull option structures (CFH), while only purchased put options were designated as hedging under put spread structures.
4 To calculate the exposure to credit risk, the net positive fair value (financial receivables – financial liabilities) of open derivatives as at 30 September 2020 is taken into account, including a breakdown by hedged market risk factors.
Despite the concentration of credit risk associated with derivatives' transactions, the Parent Entity has determined that, due to its cooperation solely with renowned financial institutions, as well as continuous monitoring of their ratings, it is not materially exposed to credit risk as a result of transactions concluded with them.
The fair value of open derivatives of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group broken down into hedging transactions5 and trade transactions (including embedded and adjustment derivatives) and instruments initially designated as hedging instruments excluded from hedge accounting, is presented in the tables below.
The fair value of open derivatives (assets and liabilities) as at 30 September 2020 has changed as compared to 31 December 2019 because of:
the settlement of transactions in derivatives with maturities in the first three quarters of 2020, which were open at the end of 2019,
entering into new transactions on copper, silver and currency markets,
the change in macroeconomic conditions (e.g. forward prices of copper, silver, USD/PLN forward rates, interest rates and volatility implied at the measurement date).

The Management Board of the Parent Entity is responsible for financial liquidity management in the Group and compliance with the adopted policy. The Financial Liquidity Committee is a unit supporting the Management Board in this regard.
Capital management in the Group is aimed at securing funds for business development and maintaining the appropriate level of liquidity.
Due to the centralisation of the process of obtaining external financing for the entire KGHM Group's needs at the Parent Entity's level, it is necessary to ensure the possibility of realisation of intra-group liquidity transfers using debt and equity instruments. The main debt instrument used in intra-group liquidity transfers are owner loans, which support the process of investment activities. Moreover, under the process of liquidity management, and in particular with respect to supporting the current activities, the Group makes use of a supporting tool – local cash pooling in PLN, USD and EUR and internationally in USD, and in the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group also in CAD. Cash pooling aims to optimise the management of cash held, limiting interest costs, efficient financing of current working capital needs and supporting short-term financial liquidity in the Group.
In the third quarter of 2020, the Group continued actions aimed at optimising the financial liquidity management process by concentrating mainly on the effective management of working capital through intensive use of the reverse factoring and factoring. Thanks to factoring transactions, KGHM continues to strive to shorten the receivables turnover cycle and to extend the turnover cycle of liabilities. The Company is organising a Factoring Syndicate, whose aim is to ensure permanent and safe access to factoring for the KGHM Group.
During the first three quarters of 2020, the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group showed a full capacity for meeting its obligations. The cash held and the external financing obtained by the Group guarantee continued liquidity and enable the realisation of investment projects.
In order to maintain financial liquidity and the creditworthiness to acquire external financing at an optimum cost, over the long term the Group's goal is for the equity ratio to be not less than 0.5, and the ratio of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA not more than 2.0.

Based on information held by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., as at the date of preparation of this report no Member of the Company's Management Board held shares of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. or rights to them. The aforementioned state did not change since the publication of the consolidated report for the first half of 2020.
Based on information held by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., amongst the Members of the Company's Supervisory Board, as at the date of preparation of this report only Józef Czyczerski held 10 shares of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. The remaining Members of the Supervisory Board did not hold shares of the Company or rights to them. The aforementioned state did not change since the publication of the consolidated report for the first half of 2020.
In the claim dated 26 September 2007, Plaintiffs (14 natural persons) filed a claim against KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. (Company) with the Regional Court in Legnica for the payment of royalties for the use by the Company of invention project no. 1/97/KGHM called "Sposób zwiększenia zdolności produkcyjnej wydziałów elektrorafinacji Huty Miedzi" (Method for increasing the production capacity of the electrorefining sections of the Metallurgical Plants) for the 8th calculation period, together with interest due. 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). 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 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 the receipt of the cassation appeal for investigation has not yet been indicated.
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.
During the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 September 2020, neither KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. nor subsidiaries thereof entered into transactions with related entities under other than arm's length conditions.
As at 30 September 2020, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. had guaranteed repayments of bank loans drawn by the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. in respect of the following entities:
The repayment deadlines for the bank loan guarantees granted are in 2021.
The guarantees were granted under arm's length conditions.
Other information which in the opinion of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is significant for the assessment of its employment, assets, financial position and financial result and any changes thereto, and information which is significant for assessing the ability to pay its liabilities
In the third quarter of 2020 there were no other significant events, apart from those mentioned in the commentary to the report, which could have a significant impact on the assessment of assets, financial position and financial result of the Group, and any changes thereto, or any events significant for the assessment of the employment situation and the ability to pay its liabilities.
Factors, which in the opinion of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., will impact the results of the Group over at least the following quarter
The most significant factors affecting the results achieved by the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, including in particular over the following quarter are:
In consideration of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there still remains uncertainty regarding the further development of the epidemic-related situation in Poland and globally. This is in particular with reference to restrictions in production and consumption due to the economic slowdown observed. Since the end of the third quarter of 2020, a systematic increase has been seen in new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus cases globally, as a consequence of which individual countries are introducing new limitations and restrictions.
Although the above may affect the results of the Group in subsequent quarters, due to the on-going development of the situation it is not possible to present quantitative estimates of the potential impact of current conditions on the results of the KGHM Group. To date, while there has not been recorded a substantial negative impact on the continuity of production of the Core Business, on sales or on the continuity of the supply chain for materials and services, it is not possible to anticipate the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in these areas over subsequent quarters. The Parent Entity is continuously monitoring the global economic situation in order to assess its potential negative impact on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and to take preventative actions mitigating this impact.
In the first three quarters of 2020 the epidemic caused by the COVID-19 did not have a substantial impact on the operations or financial results, nor on the achievement of the budget by the segment KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. The effects of the decrease in metals prices in the first three months of 2020 to a substantial degree were limited as a result of the weakening of the PLN. Since the start of the second quarter of 2020 there has been observed a systematic increase in prices and, as a result, for the first three quarters of 2020 the price of copper amounted to 22 931 PLN/t, or a level which was not substantially different from the level recorded in the corresponding period of 2019 (23 115 PLN/t) and to the level planned for this period. Silver and gold prices were also favourable, which as a result of the uncertain economic situation increased in value compared to the prior year respectively by 24% and 31% (in PLN). This growth trend has also continued into the fourth quarter - on 17 November 2020 the price of copper amounted to 7 050 USD/t, and silver 25 USD/oz t.
The impact of these macroeconomic factors on the results achieved may be found in the descriptions of individual operating segments (Part 1 Note 3.8)
The Company's share price during the first 9 months of 2020 increased by 23% compared to the price at the end of 2019, and at the end of trading on 30 September 2020 amounted to PLN 118.00. During this same period the WIG and WIG20 indices fell respectively by 15% and 20%. As a result the Company's market capitalisation increased from PLN 19 116 million to PLN 23 600 million, or 13.82% higher than the net assets of the Company and 12.23% higher than the net assets of the Group. At the start of the fourth quarter the share price of KGHM continued to rise, and on 17 November 2020 reached PLN 142.60.
One of the factors arising from the pandemic was reduced access to copper scrap in the first half of the year, although currently (after the first nine months of 2020) production from purchased metal-bearing materials is 9% higher than in the corresponding period of 2019.
The revenues achieved by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the first three quarters of 2020 amounted to PLN 13 360 million, or two percent higher compared to the period prior to the epidemic (the first three quarters of 2019). In terms of EBITDA, this also increased from PLN 2 868 million to PLN 3 052 million after the first nine months of 2020. It should also be noted that both the level of revenues achieved and of EBITDA planned for in the budget for this period were achieved at levels which exceeded the planned amounts.
There were no production stoppages either in KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., in any of the international mines of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group or in Sierra Gorda S.C.M., which would have been directly attributable to the pandemic. As a result, copper production by the Group after the 9 months of 2020 amounted to 521 thousand tonnes, which means a level comparable to the one achieved a year earlier and similar to the budget target for the first three quarters of 2020.
In the Company's opinion, the improvement in operating results indicates that the epidemic did not have a substantial impact on the operating results achieved to date by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. However, in the case of the international mining assets, the epidemic initially impacted operating results, mainly through the fall in the copper price in the first half of 2020. As a result, KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. ("KGHMI") recorded a decrease in EBITDA during this period. However, in the third quarter, in tandem with the improvement in prices and in the operating performance of companies in the KGHMI Group, there was an improvement both in EBITDA and in cash flow. At present both of these ratios are above the levels planned for in the budget of the KGHMI Group. With respect to Sierra Gorda S.C.M., the level of EBITDA also exceeded the target expected in the budget, thanks to the stable work of the mine and processing plant, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, and to the more favourable metals prices.
The greatest impact of the COVID-19 epidemic was on the Group's secondary activities involving the hotel and spa services of the companies Uzdrowiska Kłodzkie S.A. - Grupa PGU, Uzdrowisko Połczyn Grupa PGU S.A., Uzdrowisko Cieplice Sp. z o.o. - Grupa PGU, Uzdrowisko Świeradów - Czerniawa Sp. z o.o. – Grupa PGU, INTERFERIE S.A. and Interferie Medical SPA Sp. z o.o. In the second quarter of 2020 there occurred substantial interruptions to the daily operations of these companies, caused by the forced lockdown and the restrictions imposed on their activities by Decrees of the Minister of Health.
The restrictions related to COVID-19 lead to a substantial drop in revenues, mainly from March to June 2020, when most of the facilities ceased to provide services due to the imposed lockdown, which represented an indication to conduct impairment testing of the value of the assets of these companies and to recognise impairment losses on these assets at the end of June 2020 (detailed information on the limitations in activities and the results of the conducted impairment tests are presented in Part 1 Note 1.5).
In the third quarter of 2020 the situation improved – the spa and hotel companies recommenced their activities and, under an enhanced sanitary regime, returned to providing overnight and spa treatment services for their guests and patients. Decisive improvement was recorded in particular by the hotel companies, which took advantage of an influx in domestic tourists, especially to facilities located at the seaside. Despite the unfreezing of activities prior to the holiday season, the companies were nonetheless unable to make up the losses incurred during the lockdown. The curative and hotel activities engaged in by the companies of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group recorded a 40% drop in revenues for the first 9 months of 2020 (compared to the prior year), and a drop in sales of water by 10%.
Due to the improved economic situation in the third quarter of 2020 (a return to generation of sales, improved results) there were no identified indications of the need to again conduct impairment testing (with the exception of the company Interferie S.A., where an additional indication is the market value of the company's shares listed on the WSE – due to the public nature of this company, Interferie S.A. publishes its tests for impairment in its periodic reports).
In terms of covenants breached at the end of June 2020, including the DSCR (debt-service coverage ratio) at a level of not less than 1.2, it should be pointed out that the spa and hotel companies were unable during the third quarter to offset the negative economic impact of the pandemic. Nonetheless, the financial institutions refrained from application of the foreseen contractual restrictions, as announced previously in the half-year report.
The spa and hotel companies also continued to work to obtain financing from the Polish Development Fund under the Anti-Crisis Shield for large enterprises.
On 23 October 2020, a decree of the Council of Ministers was published in the journal of laws altering a decree on establishing specified restrictions, orders and bans due to the outbreak of the epidemic, pursuant to which, until further notice, temporary restrictions were imposed on the performance of curative activities comprising the cessation of services in the area of spa curation and providing healthcare services in terms of curative rehabilitation. These restrictions came into force on 24 October 2020.
In light of the above, similarly as was the case in the second quarter of 2020, the spa companies, following the completion of existing stays, which were in progress in the spas as at the date these restrictions came into force, will make decisions regarding the temporary closure of individual facilities.
On 6 November 2020, a further update of the decree was published, on establishing specified restrictions, orders and bans due to the epidemic. In accordance with adopted regulations, until 29 November 2020 restrictions were imposed on the providing of hotel services, restricting them solely to services involving worker hotels or hotels for seasonal workers, as well as for guests who: a) are utilizing these services under business trips b) are professionals utilizing these services during meetings and sporting competitions, c) are persons practicing the medical profession, and d) are patients and their caregivers.
The hotel companies are maintaining constant monitoring of the introduced restrictions, reviewing the possibility of providing supplementary services and of taking decisions on the temporary closure of individual facilities.
As at the date of publication of this report it is difficult to estimate the timeframe of the aforementioned restrictions, and therefore there is also substantial uncertainty associated with financial projections for the subsequent months of 2020 and for the year 2021.
With respect to the remaining companies of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group located in Poland, the epidemic during the first 9 months of 2020 did not have a substantial impact on the operating results generated by these entities.
Taking into consideration the aforementioned factors and the development of the pandemic observed in October 2020, the Company believes that there still remains substantial risk of a negative impact on the economic activities of the Parent Entity and on the companies of the Group over subsequent months. The Company is continuously monitoring the situation in order to assess its impact on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and to take preventative actions. Nonetheless, due to the specific nature of the threat, the estimation of anticipated financial impact is difficult to achieve.
On 1 October 2020 the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. signed a letter of intent with the State Treasury represented by the President of the Council of Ministers and acting via the Government Plenipotentiary for Strategic Energy Infrastructure on the acquisition of 100% of the shares by the State Treasury in the company PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o.
The letter of intent was signed by all shareholders of the company PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o., which is responsible for the preparation and realisation of the investment involving the construction and operation of the first Polish nuclear power plant. The Company has 10% of the shares in PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o.
Signatories to the letter of intent are committed to take, in good faith, all the necessary steps to prepare and conclude a transaction aimed at acquisition by the State Treasury of shares in the company PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. ("Transaction"). The intent expressed in the Letter of intent is that the State Treasury shall acquire shares in the company PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. up to 31 December 2020, whereas the Parties did not specify the period of validity of the Letter of intent. The Letter of intent does not entail any obligations for the Parties to conclude the Transaction. The decision to conclude the Transaction will be conditional on the results of the negotiations, including the scope and fulfilment of other conditions specified in law in force or corporate documents.
On 7 October 2020 the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. was informed by Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd., Sumitomo Corporation and SMM Sierra Gorda Inversiones Limitada ("Sumitomo") of the planned commencement of the process of sale of Sumitomo's 45% interest in the joint venture company Sierra Gorda S.C.M. and of preparations preceding the formal commencement of the sale, including the planned commencement of marketing activities aimed at potential investors.
The current Strategy of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. for the years 2019-2023 does not assume any changes in the scale of involvement of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. All of the efforts towards optimisation carried out to date, aimed at enhancing the value of Sierra Gorda S.C.M., will be continued. They are yielding the expected results, which is reflected in the surpassed production budget targets for 2020.
On 27 October 2020 the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. informed about its consent to extend the term of an unsecured revolving syndicated credit facility agreement in the amount of USD 1 500 million, which was announced by the Parent Entity via a regulatory filing no. 38/2019 on 19 December 2019, by 1 year, that is to 19 December 2025, by submitting a request to the financing banks.
The unsecured revolving syndicated credit facility agreement in the amount of USD 1 500 million was entered into on 20 December 2019 for a five-year tenor and has two one-year extension options exercisable at the request of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. (decision to agree for the extension is at the discretion of each syndicate member, proportionally to the interest held).
The extension of the term of the agreement realises the Strategy of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. with respect to ensuring long-term financial stability by, among others, basing KGHM's financing structure on long-term instruments.
On 30 October 2020 the Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. announced the convening of an Extraordinary General Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., which will take place on 26 November 2020, beginning at 11:00 a.m. at the head office of the Company in Lubin, at the address ul. Marii Skłodowskiej-Curie 48 (in Jan Wyżykowski Hall).
The aim of convening of the Extraordinary General Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is an appointment to the 10th term of a Member of the Supervisory Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. elected in supplementary elections by the Employees of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group.

Note 1.1 Assessment of the risk of impairment of assets of the Company in the context of the market capitalisation of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
The details are presented in Part 1, note 1.5 Impairment of assets.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is the sole participant in the KGHM VI FIZAN Fund, in whose portfolio are companies operating in the hotel sector, i.e. INTERFERIE S.A. and Interferie Medical SPA Sp. z o.o., as well as the KGHM VII FIZAN Fund, whose portfolio contains among others companies operating in the spa sector: Uzdrowiska Kłodzkie S.A. - Grupa PGU, Uzdrowisko Połczyn Grupa PGU S.A., Uzdrowisko Cieplice Sp. z o.o. - Grupa PGU and Uzdrowisko Świeradów - Czerniawa Sp. z o.o. – Grupa PGU.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic had a substantial impact on the Company's activities with respect to the providing of spa services. As at 30 June 2020, the Company performed impairment testing and as a result of the tests conducted, it was determined that it is necessary to increase the impairment loss recognised as at 31 March 2020 on the investment of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the Investment Certificates of KGHM VII FIZAN by the amount of PLN 4 million, i.e. to the total amount of PLN 34 million – by comparing the acquisition price of the Investment Certificates of KGHM VII FIZAN of PLN 331 million with the recoverable amount of PLN 297 million.
Assumptions adopted for impairment testing of investment certificates of KGHM VI FIZAN and KGHM VII FIZAN and results of the tests as at 30 June 2020 were presented in the Consolidated half-year report PSr 2020 – condensed financial statements of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., Part 1.
As at 30 September 2020, the analysis to determine the risk of an impairment of investment certificates of KGHM VI FIZAN and KGHM VII FIZAN which included the verification of discount rates, sale volumes, margins and forecasted cash flows comprised of, among others, expected capital expenditures and working capital, confirmed that assumptions used by the Company to assess the investment certificates as at 30 June 2020 are up to date.
As at 30 September 2020, the analysis conducted by the Company did not provide a basis to recognise an additional impairment loss to the ones recognised as at 30 June 2020.
Following the reporting date, due to the developments related to the Covid-19 epidemic, new restrictions were imposed on spa and hotel entities.
On 23 October 2020 the Council of Ministers published a Decree, introducing from 24 October 2020 until further notice, temporary restrictions to the operation of spa-related activities, involving cessation of the performance of spa-related services and to providing health-related services in terms of therapeutic rehabilitation. Consequently, spa companies, following the completion of existing stays, which were in progress in the spas as at the date these restrictions came into force, will make decisions regarding the temporary closure of individual facilities.
On 6 November 2020 a Decree of the Council of Ministers was published, which introduced restrictions until 29 November 2020 on the provision of hotel services exclusively to services involving worker hotels or hotels for seasonal workers, as well as for guests who: a) are utilizing these services under business trips b) are professionals utilizing these services during meetings and sporting competitions c) are persons practicing the medical profession, and d) are patients and their caregivers. The hotel companies are maintaining constant monitoring of the introduced restrictions, reviewing the possibility of providing supplementary services and of taking decisions on the temporary closure of individual facilities.
The economic impact of the aforementioned restrictions will be analysed in terms of the potential impairment as at 31 December 2020.
TEST FOR IMPAIRMENT OF SHARES OF POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o.
As at 30 September 2020, due to indications of the possibility of changes in the recoverable amount, the Company performed impairment testing of the equity involvement in the shares of the company POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. The key indication to perform a test in the current reporting period was a loss for the period in the first nine months of 2020, deviating from the financial results assumed for that period.
The carrying amount of the shares of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. as at 30 September 2020 amounted to PLN 63 million. For the purpose of estimating the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the value in use of shares was measured using the DCF method i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.
| Basic assumptions adopted for impairment testing | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Assumption | Level adopted in testing | ||
| Forecast period | 10.2020-12.2024 | ||
| Operating margin | 0.9% during the forecast period | ||
| 1.9% in the residual value | |||
| Capital expenditures during the forecast period |
PLN 224 million | ||
| Discount rate | 4.64% (nominal rate after taxation) | ||
| Growth rate following the forecast period | 0% |
As a result of the impairment testing conducted on the shares of POL–MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o., the recoverable amount of the tested shares was determined to be higher than the carrying amount of this asset, which did not provide a basis for the recognition of an impairment loss.
The measurement of the shares of POL–MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. indicated a significant sensitivity to the adopted discount rates and the operating margin. The following table presents the impact of changes to these parameters on the measurement of the shares.
| Sensitivity analysis of the recoverable amount of shares of POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o. | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The recoverable amount for a given discount rate | ||||
| lower by 1 pp. | per test | higher by 1 pp. | ||
| Discount rate 4.64% (test) | 353 | 182 | 120 | |
| The recoverable amount for a given operating margin | ||||
| lower by 1 pp. | per test | higher by 1 pp. | ||
| Operating margin 0.9%, 1.9% in RV (test) | 77 | 182 | 287 |
In order to monitor the risk of impairment of assets in subsequent reporting periods, it was determined that the recoverable amount would be equal to the carrying amount of shares if the discount rate were to increase to 7.84% or if the operating margin were to decrease by 1.1 pp.
The results of the impairment testing of assets of the Company as at 31 December 2019 were presented in the part 3 of the Annual report R 2019.

** The Company analyses the recoverable amount of the shares in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. and of the loans granted to Future 1 Sp. z o.o. and KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. from the perspective of the combined commitment in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. Were there to occur any change in the level of commitment in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. by, for example, an increase in the share capital of Future 1 Sp. z o.o. or the granting of loans to Future 1 Sp. z o.o. or KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD., the Company would review the appropriateness of the applied estimates as regards the recoverable amount of the engagement in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. by including current cash flows. Due to a change in the engagement in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. in the first half of 2020 resulting from the granting of a loan in the amount of USD 52 million (PLN 208 million), as at 30 June 2020 the Company reviewed the applied estimates and recognised an allowance for impairment of loans in the amount of PLN 124 million (loans measured at amortised cost in the amount of PLN 32 million, loans measured at fair value in the amount of PLN 92 million) and on the shares in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. in the amount of PLN 84 million.
