Note on year-on-year comparison

Total refined copper production will decrease approximately 8% year-on-year. Production will decrease approximately 6% at Naoshima Smelter and Refinery, approximately 11% at Onahama Smelter and Refinery respectively.
Refined gold production will increase mainly due to the higher volume of Gresik slime.
Refined silver production will increase mainly due to the higher silver grade of metal scrap.
