Update statement on 2023 AGM voting result

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, Hochschild Mining PLC (the "Company") provides an update on the actions taken in response to the level of votes cast against the re-election of the Chair, Eduardo Hochschild, at this year's AGM.

As indicated in June, the Company has engaged with its largest shareholders in relation to the renewal of the Directors' Remuneration Policy as well as general governance matters. This has confirmed that the voting on Eduardo Hochschild's re-election reflected concerns on his tenure as Chair and the lack of a defined succession plan and a publicly disclosed definitive timeline for retirement.

The Board believes that, taking into account Eduardo Hochschild's long-standing involvement with the Company, his significant shareholding, and the governance structure and practices that have been adopted, his continued role as Company Chair remains in the best interests of the Company.

As is the case for all key leadership positions, the Company has a succession plan in place in relation to the Chair. Whilst there are no short or medium-term plans for Eduardo Hochschild to retire, details of a longer-term timeline for his retirement will be disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report.
