The Metals Production Plans in the 2nd Half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024

Our production plan for the 2nd half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 is as follows.

(Reference)

	April 2023 to September 2023 (previous 6 months plans)	October 2022 to March 2023 (year-on-year)
Refined Copper	35,533 metric ton per month	26,981 metric ton per month
Refined Lead	2,387 metric ton per month	2,507 metric ton per month
Refined Gold	2,717 kg per month	3,423 kg per month
Refined Silver	27,667 kg per month	28,449 kg per month

Note on year-on-year comparison

Total refined copper production will increase approximately 34% year-on-year. Production will increase approximately 17% at Naoshima Smelter & Refinery mainly due to the fact that regular maintenance shutdown is not scheduled this fiscal year. Production will increase approximately 61% at Onahama Smelter & Refinery due to its conversion into a wholly owned subsidiary.
Refined gold and silver production will decrease mainly due to reduced receipt.
