The accompanying notes are an integral part of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Note 1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Hecla Mining Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hecla,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” except where the context requires otherwise) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and disclosures required annually by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Therefore, this information should be read in conjunction with Hecla Mining Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 (“~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K”). The consolidated December 31, ~~2020~~2021 balance sheet data was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported. All such adjustments are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

The 2019 novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was characterized as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, ~~2020,~~ ~~and COVID-~~19 ~~resulted in travel restrictions and business slowdowns or shutdowns in affected areas. In late~~ ~~March 2020,~~ ~~the Government of Quebec ordered the mining industry to reduce to minimum operations as part of the fight against COVID-~~~~19,~~ ~~causing us to suspend our Casa Berardi operations from~~ ~~March 24, 2020~~ ~~until~~ ~~April 15, 2020~~ ~~when mining operations resumed. In early~~ ~~April 2020,~~ ~~the Government of Mexico issued a similar order causing us to suspend our San Sebastian operations until~~ ~~May 30,~~ 2020. ~~In addition, restrictions imposed by the State of Alaska in late~~ ~~March 2020~~ ~~caused us~~We continue to ~~revise the normal operating procedures for staffing operations at Greens Creek. These suspension orders impacted us in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2020~~ by curtailing our expected production of gold at Casa Berardi by approximately 11,700 ounces, which resulted in a reduction in related revenue for that period. We continued to incur costs at Casa Berardi and San Sebastian while operations were suspended. At Casa Berardi and San Sebastian, suspension costs in ~~2020~~ ~~totaled $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. In addition, we incurred costs of approximately $1.0 million in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2021~~ ~~and $2.3 million for the full year of~~ ~~2020~~ ~~related to quarantining employees at Greens Creek, which started in late~~ ~~March 2020,~~ ~~and incurred costs of approximately $1.2 million in the~~ ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2021~~ ~~related to COVID-~~19 ~~procedures at Casa Berardi. At the Lucky Friday, San Sebastian and Nevada Operations units, COVID-~~19 procedures have been implemented without a significant impact on operating or suspension costs or production. It is possible that future restrictions at any of our operations could have an adverse impact on operations or financial results beyond the ~~first~~ ~~half of~~ ~~2021.~~

~~We have taken~~take precautionary measures to mitigate the impact of COVID-19, including implementing operational plans and practices. As long as they are required, the operational practices implemented could continue to have an adverse impact on our operating results due to deferred production and revenues or additional costs. We incurred $0.1 million and $0.4 million in COVID-19 mitigation costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.4 million and $3.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. We continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation and guidance from federal, state, local and foreign governments and public health authorities and may take additional actions based on their recommendations. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business and financial results will also depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the success of the current vaccination programs ~~being rolled out within the markets in which we operate~~ and the related impact on prices, demand, creditworthiness and other market conditions and governmental reactions, all of which are highly uncertain.

~~Correction of an Immaterial Error~~

~~During the~~ ~~first~~ ~~quarter of~~ ~~2021~~ ~~we reclassified certain state mining income taxes from~~ ~~Cost of sales and other direct production costs~~ to ~~Income and mining tax provision~~ ~~prospectively effective~~ ~~January 1, 2021.~~ ~~The reclassification required us to recognize previously unrecognized deferred taxes. The impact of this was an adjustment of $11.9 million to accumulated deficit at~~ ~~January 1, 2019~~ ~~to recognize the deferred tax liability. This adjustment resulted in the~~ ~~January 1, 2020~~ ~~accumulated deficit balance presented in this Form~~ 10~~-Q increasing to $365.2 million.~~

The income and mining tax benefit (provision) for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 varies from the amounts that would have resulted from applying the statutory tax rates to pre-tax income due primarily to the impact of taxation in foreign jurisdictions and ~~reversal of the valuation allowance portion related to net operating loss utilization. The valuation allowance reversed for utilization~~non-recognition of net operating ~~loss carryforward~~losses and foreign exchange gains and losses in certain jurisdictions.

For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we used the annual effective tax rate method to calculate the tax provision, a change from the discrete method used for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021, due to reversal of valuation allowance in the fourth quarter of 2021. Valuation allowances on Nevada, Mexico and certain Canadian net operating losses were treated as discrete adjustments to the annual effective tax rate method calculation, partially causing the increase in the income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, ~~30,~~~~2021~~ ~~totaled $3.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively.~~

~~Effective~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~we prospectively reclassified certain income based state and provincial taxes from~~ ~~Cost of Sales and other direct production costs~~as compared to~~Income and mining tax benefit (provision). The income and mining tax benefit for~~ the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.~~30,~~~~2021~~ ~~decreased by $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively, due to the reclassification.~~

Note 4. Employee Benefit Plans

We sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all U.S. employees. Net periodic pension cost for the plans consisted of the following for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 (in thousands):

During May 2022, we contributed $5.6 million in shares of our common stock to two of our defined benefit plans. In January 2021, we contributed $16.8 million in shares of our common stock to our supplemental executive retirement ~~plan, and expect to contribute approximately $0.8 million in cash during~~ ~~2021.~~plan. We do not expect to be required to ~~contribute~~make additional contributions to our defined benefit pension plans in ~~2021,~~2022, but may elect to do so.

Note 5. (Loss) Income ~~(Loss)~~ Per Common Share

We calculate basic (loss) income ~~(loss)~~ per common share on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income ~~(loss)~~ per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period plus the effect of potential dilutive common shares during the period using the treasury stock and if-converted methods.

Potential dilutive shares of common stock include outstanding unvested restricted stock awards, stock units, warrants and convertible preferred stock for periods in which we have reported net income. For periods in which we report net losses, potential dilutive shares of common stock are excluded, as their conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive.

The following table represents net (loss) income ~~(loss)~~ per common share – basic and diluted (in thousands, except income (loss) per share):

•

~~29,187 restricted stock units that vest in~~ ~~June 2022.~~

Stock-based compensation expense will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the respective award. Total stock-based compensation expense of $5.0 million related to the above awards will be recognized as follows: $1.7 million, $2.2 million, $0.9 million and ~~$0.2 million during~~ ~~2021,~~~~2022,~~~~2023~~ ~~and~~ ~~2024,~~ ~~respectively.~~

In ~~June 2021,~~ ~~the board of directors granted performance-based share awards to certain executive employees. The value of the awards (if any) will be based on the ranking of the market performance of our common~~ stock ~~relative to that of a group of peer companies over the~~ ~~three-year measurement period ending~~ ~~December 31, 2023.~~ The number of shares to be issued will be based on the value of the awards divided by the share price at grant date. The expense related to the performance-based awards will be recognized on a straight-line base over the ~~thirty~~ ~~months following the date of the award.~~

options. Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock unit and performance-based grants (collectively "incentive compensation") to employees and shares issued to non-employee directors totaled $1.3 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30,2022, respectively, and $2.8 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, ~~respectively, and $1.2~~respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was $9.1 million ~~and $2.4 million for~~of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.4 years.

The following table summarizes the ~~three~~ ~~and~~grants awarded during the six months ended June 30, 2022:~~30,~~~~2020,~~ ~~respectively.~~

Grant date	Award type	Number granted		Grant date fair value
June 21, 2022	Restricted stock		1,103,801		$4.43
June 21, 2022	Performance based		322,799		$3.78
June 28, 2022	Directors retainer		98,310		$4.24

In connection with the vesting of ~~restricted stock units and other stock grants,~~incentive compensation, employees have in the past, at their election and when permitted by us, chosen to satisfy their minimum tax withholding obligations through net share settlement, pursuant to which the Company withholds the number of shares necessary to satisfy such withholding obligations and pays the obligations in cash. As a result, in the first six months of 2022 we withheld 737,258 shares valued at approximately $3.7 million, or approximately $4.99 per share. In the firstsix months of 2021 we withheld 574,251 shares valued at approximately $4.5 million, or approximately $7.88 per share. ~~In the~~ ~~first~~~~six~~ ~~months of~~ ~~2020~~ ~~we withheld 1,183,773 shares valued at approximately $2.7 million, or approximately $2.32 per share.~~

Credit Facility

In July 2018, we entered into a $250 million senior secured revolving credit facility which has a term ending on February 7, 2023. As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, 0 amounts were outstanding under the facility.

We are also able to obtain letters of credit under the facility, and for any such letters we are required to pay a participation fee of between 2.25% and 4.00% of the amount of the letters of credit based on our total leverage ratio, as well as a fronting fee to each issuing bank of 0.20% annually on the average daily dollar amount of any outstanding letters of credit. There were ~~$19.9~~$14.9 million in letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Letters of credit that are outstanding reduce availability under the revolving credit facility. See Note 12regarding the termination of this Credit Facility and entry into a new facility.

We believe we were in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

Note 8. Derivative Instruments

General

Our current risk management policy provides that up to 75% ~~of:~~of five years foreign currency, lead and zinc metals price and silver and gold price exposure may be covered under a derivatives program with certain other limitations. The silver and gold price program can only establish a floor (puts). We are currently do not have a silver and gold program. Our program also utilizes derivatives to manage price risk exposure created from when revenue is recognized from a shipment of concentrate until final settlement.

•

~~our future foreign currency-related operating cost exposure for~~ ~~five~~ ~~years into the future~~ ~~may~~ ~~be hedged and for potential additional programs to manage other foreign currency-related exposure areas;~~

•

~~our planned lead and zinc metals price exposure for~~ ~~five~~ ~~years into the future, with certain other limitations, to be covered under derivatives programs that would establish prices to be realized on future metals sales; and~~

•

~~our planned silver and gold metals price exposure for~~ ~~five~~ ~~years into the future, with certain other limitations, to be covered under derivatives programs that would establish a floor, but~~ ~~not~~ ~~a ceiling, for prices to be realized on future metals sales. We currently do~~ ~~not~~ ~~utilized such programs.~~

These instruments expose us to (i) credit risk in the form of non-performance by counterparties for contracts in which the contract price exceeds the spot price of the hedged commodity or foreign currency and (ii) price risk to the extent that the spot price exceeds the contract price for quantities of our production and/or forecasted costs covered under contract positions.

Foreign Currency

Our wholly-owned subsidiary owning the Casa Berardi operation is a USD-functional entity which routinely incurs expenses denominated in CAD. Such expenses expose us to exchange rate fluctuations between the USD and CAD. We have a program to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the exchange rate between the USD and CAD for this ~~subsidiary's'~~subsidiary's future operating costs denominated in CAD. The program utilizes forward contracts to buy CAD, and each contract is designated as a cash flow hedge. As of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we have ~~117~~161 forward contracts outstanding to buy a total of CAD$~~224.8~~321.8 million having a notional amount of USD$~~170.5~~247.9 million. The CAD contracts are related to forecasted cash operating costs at Casa Berardi to be incurred from 2021 through 2024 and have CAD-to-USD exchange rates ranging between 1.2702 and ~~1.3779.~~1.3333.

As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we recorded the following balances for the fair value of the contracts (in millions):

Metals Prices

We are currently using financially-settled forward contracts to manage the exposure to:

•

changes in prices of silver, gold, zinc and lead contained in our concentrate shipments between the time of shipment and final settlement; and

•

changes in prices of zinc and lead (but not silver and gold) contained in our forecasted future concentrate shipments.

InEffective ~~June 2019,~~November 1, 2021, we ~~began utilizing financially-settled put option~~designated the contracts ~~to manage the exposure of~~for lead and zinc contained in our forecasted future ~~gold and silver sales to potential declines in market prices for those metals. These put contracts gave us the option, but~~ ~~not~~ ~~the obligation, to realize established prices on quantities of silver and gold to be sold in the future. As of~~ ~~December~~ ~~31,~~~~2020,~~ we had put contracts that provided average floor prices of $16.50 per ounce for silver and $1,650 per ounce for gold for a total of 1.1 million silver ounces and 12,992 gold ounces. We had 0 put option contracts outstanding as of ~~June~~ ~~30,~~~~2021.~~

~~These forward and put option contracts are~~ ~~not~~ ~~designated~~shipments as hedges for accounting purposes, with gains and losses deferred to accumulated other comprehensive loss until the hedged product ships. Prior to November 1, 2021, these contracts had not been designated as hedges for hedge accounting and were therefore marked-to-market through earnings each period. The forward contracts for silver and gold contained in our concentrate shipments have not been designated as hedges and are ~~adjusted to fair value~~marked-to-market through earnings each period.

We recorded the following balances for the fair value of the forward contracts as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and forward and put option contracts as of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 (in millions):

approximately $15.6 million related to the effective portion of the contracts designated as hedges were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of June 30, 2022. Unrealized gains and losses will be transferred from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current earnings as the underlying sales are recognized. We estimate approximately $6.0 million in net unrealized gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of June 30, 2022 would be reclassified to current earnings in the next twelve months.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Certain of our derivative contracts contain cross default provisions which provide that a default under our revolving credit agreement would cause a default under the derivative contract. As of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we have not posted any collateral related to these contracts. The fair value of derivatives in a net liability position related to these agreements was ~~$17.1~~$12.2 million as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk. If we were in breach of any of these provisions at June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value of ~~$17.1~~$12.2 million.

Accounting guidance has established a hierarchy for inputs used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. The three levels included in the hierarchy are:

Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: significant other observable inputs; and

Level 3: significant unobservable inputs.

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of money market funds and are valued at cost, which approximates fair value, and a small portion consists of municipal bonds having maturities of less than 90 days, which are recorded at fair value.

Current and non-current restricted cash balances consist primarily of certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury securities, and other deposits and are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

Our non-current available for sale securities consist of marketable equity securities of companies in the mining industry which are valued using quoted market prices for each security.

Trade accounts receivable from provisional concentrate sales are subject to final pricing and valued using quoted prices based on forward curves for the particular metals. The embedded derivative contained in our concentrate sales is adjusted to fair market value through earnings each period prior to final settlement.

We use financially-settled forward contracts to manage exposure to changes in the exchange rate between USD and CAD, and the impact on CAD-denominated operating costs incurred at our Casa Berardi unit (see Note 8 for more information). The fair value of each contract represents the present value of the difference between the forward exchange rate for the contract settlement period as of the measurement date and the contract settlement exchange rate.

We use financially-settled forward contracts to manage the exposure to changes in prices of silver, gold, zinc and lead contained in our concentrate shipments that have not reached final settlement. We also use financially-settled forward ~~and put option~~ contracts to manage the exposure to changes in prices of silver, gold, zinc and lead contained in our forecasted future sales (see Note 8 for more information). The fair value of each forward contract represents the present value of the difference between the forward metal price for the contract settlement period as of the measurement date and the contract settlement metal price. ~~The fair value of each put option contract is measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model, with inputs for the period-end metal price and assumed metal price volatility and discount rate.~~

Note 10. Commitments, Contingencies and Obligations

General

We follow GAAP guidance in determining our accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies, and evaluate such accruals and contingencies for each reporting period. Accordingly, estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

Johnny M Mine Area near San Mateo, McKinley County and San Mateo Creek Basin, New Mexico

In ~~May 2011,~~ ~~the EPA made a formal request to Hecla Mining Company for information regarding the Johnny M Mine Area near San Mateo, McKinley County, New Mexico, and asserted that Hecla Mining Company~~ ~~may~~ be responsible under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) for environmental remediation and past costs the EPA has incurred at the site. Mining at the Johnny M Mine was conducted for a limited period of time by a predecessor of our subsidiary, Hecla Limited. In August 2012, Hecla Limited and the EPA entered into a Settlement Agreement and Administrative Order on Consent for Removal Action (“Consent Order”)~~, pursuant to which~~ regarding the Johnny M Mine Area near San Mateo, McKinley County, New Mexico. Mining at the Johnny M Mine was conducted for a limited period of time by a predecessor of Hecla Limited, and the EPA had previously asserted that Hecla Limited may be responsible under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) for environmental remediation and past costs incurred by the EPA at the site. Under the Consent Order, Hecla Limited agreed to pay (i) $1.1 million to the EPA for its past response costs at the site and (ii) any future response costs at the site under the Consent Order, in exchange for a covenant not to sue by the EPA. ~~Hecla Limited paid the $1.1 million to the EPA for its past response costs and in~~In December 2014, Hecla Limited submitted to the EPA the Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis (“EE/CA”) for the site which recommended on-site disposal of mine-related material. In January 2021, the ~~EPA contacted Hecla Limited to begin negotiations on~~parties began negotiating a new consent order to design and implement the on-site disposal response action recommended in the EE/CA. Based on the foregoing, we believe it is probable that Hecla Limited will incur a liability for the CERCLA removal action and we increased our accrual by $2.9 million to $9.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, ~~($6.1 million at~~ ~~December 31, 2020)~~ primarily representing estimated costs to begin design and implementation of the remedy. It is possible that Hecla Limited’s liability will be more than $9.0 million, and any increase in liability could have a material adverse effect on Hecla Limited’s or our results of operations or financial position.

The Johnny M Mine is in an area known as the San Mateo Creek Basin (“SMCB”), which is an approximately 321 square mile area in New Mexico that contains numerous legacy uranium mines and mills. In addition to Johnny M, Hecla ~~Limited's~~Limited’s predecessor was involved at other mining sites within the SMCB. The EPA appears to have deferred consideration of listing the SMCB site on CERCLA’s National Priorities List ~~“Superfund”~~(“Superfund”) by removing the site from its emphasis list, and is working with various potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at the site in order to study and potentially address perceived groundwater issues within the SMCB. The EE/CA discussed above relates primarily to contaminated rock and soil at the Johnny M site, not groundwater and not elsewhere within the SMCB site. It is possible that Hecla Limited’s liability at the Johnny M Site, and for any other mine site within the SMCB at which Hecla ~~Limited's~~Limited’s predecessor may have operated, will be greater than our current accrual of $9.0 million due to the increased scope of required remediation.

~~Table of Contents~~

In July 2018, the EPA informed Hecla Limited that it and several other PRPs may be liable for cleanup of the SMCB site or for costs incurred by the EPA in cleaning up the site. The EPA stated it has incurred approximately $9.6 million in response costs to date. On May 2, 2022, Hecla Limited received a letter from an attorney representing a PRP notifying Hecla Limited that three PRPs will seek cost recovery and contribution from Hecla Limited under CERCLA for certain investigatory work performed by the PRPs at the SMCB site. Hecla Limited cannot with reasonable certainty estimate the amount or range of liability, if any, relating to this matter because of, among other reasons, the lack of information concerning the site, including the relative contributions of contamination by the various PRPs.

Carpenter Snow Creek and Barker-Hughesville Sites in Montana

In July 2010, the EPA made a formal request to Hecla ~~Mining Company~~ for information regarding the Carpenter Snow Creek Superfund site located in Cascade County, Montana. The Carpenter Snow Creek site is located in a historic mining district, and in the early 1980s Hecla Limited leased 6 mining claims and performed limited exploration activities at the site. Hecla Limited terminated the mining lease in 1988.

In June 2011, the EPA informed Hecla Limited that it believes Hecla Limited, and several other PRPs, may be liable for cleanup of the site or for costs incurred by the EPA in cleaning up the site. The EPA stated in the letter that it has incurred approximately $4.5 million in response costs and estimated that total remediation costs may exceed $100 million. Hecla Limited cannot with reasonable certainty estimate the amount or range of liability, if any, relating to this matter because of, among other reasons, the lack of information concerning the site, including the relative contributions of contamination by various other PRPs.

In February 2017, the EPA made a formal request to Hecla ~~Mining Company~~ for information regarding the Barker-Hughesville Mining District Superfund site located in Judith Basin and Cascade Counties, Montana. Hecla Limited submitted a response in April 2017. The Barker-Hughesville site is located in a historic mining district, and between approximately June and December 1983, Hecla Limited was party to an agreement with another mining company under which limited exploration activities occurred at or near the site.

In August 2018, the EPA informed Hecla Limited that it and several other PRPs may be liable for cleanup of the site or for costs incurred by the EPA in cleaning up the site. The EPA did not include an amount of its alleged response costs to date. Hecla Limited cannot with reasonable certainty estimate the amount or range of liability, if any, relating to this matter because of, among other reasons, the lack of information concerning past or anticipated future costs at the site and the relative contributions of contamination by various other PRPs.

~~Claim for Indemnification Against CoCa Mines, Inc.~~Greens Creek and Lucky Friday Environmental Issues

On June 30, 2022, our Greens Creek mine received a Notice of Violation ( “NOV”) from the EPA alleging that the mine treated, stored, and disposed of certain hazardous waste without a permit in violation of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), relating to the alleged presence of lead outside the concentrate storage building and the alleged improper reuse/recycling of certain materials produced from the on-site laboratories. The NOV contained two other less significant alleged violations. We disagree with several of EPA’s allegations on a factual and legal basis.

Currently, the EPA has not initiated any formal enforcement proceeding against our Greens Creek subsidiary. In civil judicial cases, EPA can seek statutory penalties up to $81,540 per day per violation and, in administrative settlements, EPA can seek administrative penalties up to $47,423 per day per violation plus the economic benefit of noncompliance. EPA typically pursues administrative penalties and assesses lower penalties on a per day basis. At this time, we cannot reasonably assess the amount of penalties EPA ~~1991,~~may seek, or predict the terms of any potential settlement with the EPA.

On July 12, 2022, our Lucky Friday mine received a NOV from the EPA alleging violations of the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) between 2018 ~~Hecla Limited acquired CoCa Mines, Inc. (“CoCa”)~~ and ~~its subsidiary Creede Resources, Inc. (“CRI”). CoCa~~2021 relating primarily to concentration levels of zinc and ~~CRI previously operated~~lead in the ~~State~~mine’s permitted water discharges. Currently, the EPA has not initiated any formal enforcement proceeding against our Lucky Friday subsidiary. In civil judicial cases, EPA can seek statutory penalties up to $59,973 per day per violation and, in administrative actions, EPA can seek administrative penalties up to $23,989 per day per violation with a maximum administrative penalty of ~~Colorado, but presently have limited assets and operations.

EPA typically pursues administrative penalties. At this time, we cannot reasonably assess the amount of penalties EPA may ~~incur with respect to~~seek, or predict the ~~Nelson Tunnel/Commodore Waste Rock Pile Superfund site in Creede, Colorado. In~~ ~~2016,~~ ~~without admitting~~terms of any ~~liability, Hecla Limited, CoCa and CRI entered into a Consent Decree~~potential settlement with the ~~United States and the State of Colorado settling any regulatory liability they~~ ~~may~~ ~~have had at the site. On~~ ~~October 30, 2019,~~ the PRP filed a lawsuit in Mineral County, Colorado alleging, among other things, that CoCa and CRI are in breach of contract for failure to indemnify the PRP for its liability to the U.S. under CERCLA with respect to the site. In addition, the lawsuit names Hecla Limited as a defendant in its role as the shareholder of CoCa. The PRP seeks in excess of $5 million in damages, including attorneys’ fees and costs. The lawsuit will be vigorously defended and we believe strong defenses exist against all claims made therein and, as noted above, both CoCa and CRI have limited assets with which to satisfy any claim.EPA.

Litigation Related to Klondex Acquisition

On May 24, 2019, a purported Hecla stockholder filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against Hecla and certain of our executive officers, one of whom is also a director. The complaint, purportedly brought on behalf of all purchasers of Hecla common stock from March 19, 2018 through and including May 8, 2019, asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and seeks, among other things, damages and costs and expenses. Specifically, the complaint alleges that Hecla, under the authority and control of the individual defendants, made certain material false and misleading statements and omitted certain material information regarding Hecla’s Nevada ~~Operations unit.~~Operations. The complaint alleges that these misstatements and omissions artificially inflated the market price of Hecla common stock during the class period, thus purportedly harming investors. Filings with the court regarding our motion to dismiss the lawsuit were completed in the first quarter of 2021. We cannot predict the outcome of this lawsuit or estimate damages if plaintiffs were to prevail. We believe that these claims are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously.

Hecla’s board of directors and (ii) officers of Hecla. The case was filed on May 4, 2022 in the Delaware Chancery Court. In general terms, the suit alleges breaches of fiduciary duties by the individual defendants, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment, and seeks damages, purportedly on behalf of Hecla.

Debt

The obligations associated with these instruments are generally related to performance requirements that we address through ongoing operations. As the requirements are met, the beneficiary of the associated instruments cancels or returns the instrument to the issuing entity. Certain of these instruments are associated with operating sites with long-lived assets and will remain outstanding until closure of the sites. We believe we are in compliance with all applicable bonding requirements and will be able to satisfy future bonding requirements as they arise.

Other Contingencies

We also have certain other contingencies resulting from litigation, claims, EPA investigations, and other commitments and are subject to a variety of environmental and safety laws and regulations incident to the ordinary course of business. We currently have no basis to conclude that any or all of such contingencies will materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, in the future, there may be changes to these contingencies, or additional contingencies may occur, any of which might result in an accrual or a change in current accruals recorded by us, and there can be no assurance that their ultimate disposition will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 11. Developments in Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Updates Adopted

In ~~December 2019,~~ ~~the FASB issued ASU~~ ~~No.~~~~2019~~-12 ~~Income Taxes (Topic~~ ~~740~~): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The update contains a number of provisions intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after ~~December 15, 2020,~~ ~~with early adoption permitted. We adopted the update as of~~ ~~January 1, 2021,~~ ~~which did~~ ~~not~~ ~~have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.~~

~~Accounting Standards Updates to Become Effective in Future Periods~~

In August 2020, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB") issued ASU No. 2020-06 Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The update is to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles ~~for~~to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years and with early adoption permitted. We adopted the update as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08,Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and ContractLiabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires entities to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired ina business combination in accordance with ASC 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The update will generally result in an entity recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at amounts consistent with those recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date rather than at fair value. The update is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Accounting Standards Updates to Become Effective in Future Periods

In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") announced that after 2021 it would no longer compel banks to submit the rates required to calculate the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), which have been widely used as reference rates for various securities and financial contracts, including loans, debt and derivatives. This announcement indicated that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis would not be guaranteed after 2021. Subsequently in March 2021, the FCA announced some USD LIBOR tenors (overnight, 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 12 month) will continue to be published until June 30, 2023. Regulators in the U.S. and other jurisdictions have been working to replace these rates with alternative reference interest rates that are ~~evaluating~~supported by transactions in liquid and observable markets, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). Currently, our credit facility and certain of our derivative instruments reference LIBOR-based rates. Our credit facility contains provisions specifying alternative interest rate calculations to be employed when LIBOR ceases to be available as a benchmark and we have adhered to the ISDA 2020 IBOR Fallbacks Protocol, which will govern our derivatives upon the final cessation of USD LIBOR. ASU 2020-04,Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects ofReference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, as amended, helps limit the accounting impact from contract modifications, includinghedging relationships, due to the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference rates that are completed by December 31, 2022. We do not expect a significant impact to our financial results, financial position or cash flows from the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference interest rates, but we will continue to monitor the impact of this ~~update~~transition until it is completed.

Note 12.Subsequent Events

On July 5, 2022, we and Alexco Resource Corp. ("Alexco") a Canadian publicly traded company, announced a definitive agreement for one of our subsidiaries to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Alexco that Hecla does not already own. Each outstanding common share of Alexco will be exchanged for 0.116 of a share of our common stock implying consideration of US$0.47 per Alexco common share. In addition, we will (i) provide interim financing to provide working capital and support the continued advancement of the development and exploration at Alexco's, Keno Hill mine, of which $20 million was advanced on July 19, 2022 and (ii) subscribe for additional common shares bringing Hecla's ownership stake to 9.9%, which also closed on July 19, 2022.

The Company has also entered into an agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals Corporation to terminate its silver streaming interest at Alexco’s Keno Hill property in exchange for US$135 million of Company common stock, conditional upon the completion of the Alexco acquisition.

On July 21, 2022, we entered into a Credit Agreement (“New Credit Agreement”) with the various financial institutions (the “Lenders”), Bank of Montreal and Bank of America, N.A. as letters of credit issuers, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders and as swingline lender, to replace our Prior Credit Agreement, see Note 7for additional information on this credit agreement. The New Credit Agreement is a $150 million senior secured revolving facility, with an option to be increased in an aggregate amount not to exceed $75 million. The revolving loans under the New Credit Agreement will have a maturity date of July 21, 2026. Proceeds of the revolving loans under the New Credit Agreement may be used to refinance the Prior Credit Agreement and for general corporate purposes. The interest rate on outstanding loans under the New Credit Agreement is, at the option of the Borrowers, one month, three months or six months Term SOFR plus (x) 0.10% for an interest period of one-month’s duration, (y) 0.15% for an interest period of 3-month’s duration and (z) 0.25% for an interest period of six-month’s duration plus the Applicable Margin or Base Rate (which is the highest of (i) the Bank of America prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds rate plus .50% and (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors) plus the Applicable Margin. The “Applicable Margin” means (a) for the first fiscal quarter ending after the closing date, in the case of Term SOFR loans, 2.25% per annum, and, in the case of Base Rate loans, 1.25% per annum, and (b) thereafter, between 2.00% and 3.50% for Term SOFR loans or between 1.00% and 2.50% for Base Rate loans depending on our ~~consolidated financial statements.~~total leverage ratio. We are also required to pay quarterly in arrears a commitment fee of between 0.45000% to 0.78750%, depending on our total leverage ratio, of the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Revolving Commitments exceed the sum of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loan and the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations. We are also required to pay a participation fee for letters of credit issued under the New Credit Agreement in an amount between 2.00% and 3.50% based on our total leverage ratio, as well as a fronting fee to each issuing bank at an agreed upon rate per annum on the average daily dollar amount of our letter of credit exposure.

Hecla Mining Company and certain of its subsidiaries are the borrowers under the New Credit Agreement, while certain of its other subsidiaries are guarantors of the borrowers’ obligations under the New Credit Agreement. As further security, the credit facility is collateralized by a mortgage on the Greens Creek mine, the equity interests of subsidiaries that own the Greens Creek mine or are part of the Greens Creek Joint Venture and our subsidiary Hecla Admiralty Company (the “Greens Creek Group”), and by all of the Green Creek Group’s rights and interests in the Greens Creek Joint Venture Agreement, and in all assets of the joint venture and of any member of the Greens Creek Group.

In connection with entry into the New Credit Agreement, the Company’s Prior credit agreement was terminated on July 21, 2022.

Overview

Established in 1891, ~~in northern Idaho’s Silver Valley,~~ we believe we are the oldest operating precious metals mining company in the United ~~States and~~States. We are the largest silver producer in the United ~~States.~~States, producing over 40% of the United States silver production at our Greens Creek and Lucky Friday operations. We produce gold at our Casa Berardi operation in Quebec, Canada, and Greens Creek, and produced gold at our Nevada Operations segment prior to suspension of operations during 2021. Based upon our operational footprint, we believe we have low political and economic risk compared to other mines located in other parts of the world. Our ~~corporate offices~~exploration interests are located in ~~Coeur d’Alene, Idaho~~the United States, Canada and ~~Vancouver, British Columbia.~~Mexico. Our operating and strategic framework is based on expanding our production ~~profile includes:~~and locating and developing new resource potential in a safe and responsible manner.

Continued mitigation of the impacts of COVID-19 through refinement of our operational plans and procedures to protect our workforce, operations and communities while maintaining liquidity.

Our operating properties comprise our five business segments for financial reporting purposes: the Greens Creek operating unit on Admiralty Island in Alaska, the Lucky Friday operating unit in Idaho, the Casa Berardi operating unit in Quebec, Canada, the San Sebastian exploration unit in Durango, Mexico, and the Nevada Operations unit in northern Nevada. Since our operating mines are located in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, we believe they have low or relatively moderate political risk, and less economic risk than mines located in other parts of the world. Our exploration interests are also in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and are located in historical mining districts. The map below shows the locations of our operating units, our exploration and pre-development projects, as well as our corporate offices located in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and Vancouver, British Columbia.Financial:

~~The COVID-19~~We strive to achieve excellent mine safety and health performance. We seek to implement this goal by: training employees in safe work practices; establishing, following and improving safety standards; investigating accidents, incidents and losses to avoid recurrence; involving employees in the establishment of safety standards; and participating in the National Mining Association’s CORESafety program. We seek to implement reasonable best practices with respect to mine safety and emergency preparedness. We respond to issues outlined in investigations and inspections by MSHA, the Commission of Labor Standards, Pay Equity and Occupational Health and Safety in Quebec, and the Mexico Ministry of Economy and Mining and continue to evaluate our safety practices. There can be no assurance that our practices will mitigate or eliminate all safety risks. Achieving and maintaining compliance with regulations will be challenging and may increase our operating costs. See Item 1A. Risk Factors - We face substantial governmental regulation, including the Mine Safety and Health Act, various environmental laws and regulations and the 1872 Mining Law in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Since its outbreak ~~impacted our operations~~ in 2020, ~~including~~the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our operational practices and we continue to incur incremental costs and modify our operational plans to keep our workforce safe. In 2020, the pandemic adversely ~~impacting~~impacted our expected production of gold at Casa Berardi and ~~has continued to impact our operations in 2021.~~exploration drilling at Greens Creek. We incurred ~~additional costs of approximately $1.0~~$0.1 million and $0.4 million in COVID-19 mitigation costs during the ~~first half of~~three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.4 million and $3.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and $2.3 million for the full year of 2020 related to quarantining employees at Greens Creek, which started in late March 2020. See each segment section below for information on how those operations have been impacted by COVID-19.respectively. To mitigate the impact of COVID-19, we have taken precautionary measures, including implementing operational plans and ~~practices.~~practices and increasing our cash reserves. As long as they are required, the operational practices implemented could continue to have an adverse impact on our operating results due to additional costs or deferred production and revenues. There is uncertainty related to the potential additional impacts COVID-19 and any subsequent variants could have on our operations and financial results for the ~~remainder~~rest of ~~2021.~~2022. In our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K, see Item IA. Risk Factors - Natural disasters, public health crises (including COVID-19), political crises, and other catastrophic events or other events outside of our control may materially and adversely affect our business or financial results and COVID-19 virus pandemic may heighten other risks for information on how restrictions related to COVID-19 have recently affected some of our operations.

A number of key factors may impact the execution of our strategy, including regulatory issues and metals prices. Metals prices can be very volatile and are influenced by a number of factors beyond our control (except on a limited basis through the use of derivative contracts). See Item 7. Critical Accounting Estimates in our ~~2020~~2021 Form ~~10-K.~~10-K and above in Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). The average realized prices of ~~silver,~~ gold ~~lead~~ and zinc were higher, with the average realized price for silver and lead lower, in the ~~first six~~second three months of ~~2021~~2022 than in the comparable period last year, as illustrated by the table in Results of Operations below. While we believe longer-term global economic and industrial trends could result in continued demand for the metals we produce, prices have been volatile and there can be no assurance that current prices will continue.

Volatility in global financial markets and other factors can pose a significant challenge to our ability to access credit and equity markets, should we need to do so, and to predict sales prices for our products. To help mitigate this challenge, we utilize forward contracts to manage exposure to declines in the prices of (i) silver, gold, zinc and lead contained in our concentrates that have been shipped but have not yet settled, and (ii) ~~the~~ zinc and lead ~~content~~ that we forecast infor future concentrate shipments. ~~We have also utilized put option contracts to manage exposure to declines in the prices of silver and gold in our forecasted future sales of those metals.~~ In addition, we have in place a $250 million revolving credit agreement, of which ~~$19.9~~$14.9 million was used as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 for letters of credit, leaving approximately ~~$230.1~~$235.1 million available for borrowing.

Risk Factors - We face substantial governmental regulation, including the Mine Safety and Health Act, various environmental laws and regulations and the 1872 Mining Law~~ ~~in our 2020 Form 10-K~~.

Another challenge for us is the risk associated with environmental litigation and ongoing reclamation activities. As described in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K and above in Note 10 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), it is possible that our estimate of these liabilities (and our ability to estimate liabilities in general) may change in the future, affecting our strategic plans. We are involved in various environmental legal matters and the estimate of our environmental liabilities and liquidity needs, as well as our strategic plans, may be significantly impacted as a result of these matters or new matters that may arise. We strive ~~for~~to ensure that our activities are conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and attempt to resolve environmental litigation on terms as favorable to us as possible.

The fluctuations in sales for the second quarter and first six months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to the same periods of ~~2020~~2021 were primarily due to the following two reasons:

•

~~Higher~~Lower average realized prices for silver ~~gold, lead and zinc~~ in the second quarter and first half of ~~2021~~2022, lower realized lead prices in the three months ended June 30, 2022, partially offset by higher realized gold and zinc prices in the second quarter and first half of 2022 and higher realized lead prices for the first half of 2022, all compared to the same periods of ~~2020.~~2021.

Average realized prices typically differ from average market prices primarily because concentrate sales are generally recorded as revenues at the time of shipment at forward prices for the estimated month of settlement, which differ from average market prices. Due to the time elapsed between shipment of concentrates and final settlement with the customers, we must estimate the prices at which sales of our metals will be settled. Previously recorded sales are adjusted to estimated settlement metals prices each period through final settlement. For the second quarter and first six months of ~~2021,~~2022, we recorded net ~~positive~~negative price adjustments to provisional settlements of ~~$3.1~~$15.7 million and ~~$3.6~~$14.8 million, respectively, compared to net positive price adjustments to provisional settlements of ~~$7.0~~$3.1 million and ~~$9.6~~3.6 million, respectively, in the second quarter and first six months of ~~2020.~~2021. The price adjustments related to silver, gold, zinc and lead contained in our concentrate shipments were partially offset by gains and losses on forward contracts for those metals. See Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for more information. The gains and losses on these contracts are included in revenues and impact the realized prices for silver, gold, lead and zinc. Realized prices are calculated by dividing gross revenues for each metal (which include the price adjustments and gains and losses on the forward contracts discussed above) by the payable quantities of each metal included in concentrate, doré and carbon material shipped during the period.

The difference between what we report as “ounces/tons produced” and “payable ounces/tons sold” is attributable to the difference between the quantities of metals contained in the concentrates we produce versus the portion of those metals actually paid for by our customers according to the terms of our sales contracts. Differences can also arise from inventory changes incidental to shipping schedules, or variances in ore grades which impact the amount of metals contained in concentrates produced and sold.

While revenue from zinc, lead and gold by-products is significant, we believe that identification of silver as the primary product of Greens Creek and Lucky Friday ~~and San Sebastian~~ is appropriate because:

•

silver has historically accounted for a higher proportion of revenue than any other metal and is expected to do so in the future;

•

we have historically presented these units as a primary silver producer, based on the original analysis that justified putting the project into production, and believe that consistency in disclosure is important to our investors regardless of the relationships of metals prices and production from year to year;

•

metallurgical treatment maximizes silver recovery;

•

the Greens Creek and Lucky Friday deposits are massive sulfide deposits containing an unusually high proportion of silver; and in most of their working areas, Greens Creek and Lucky Friday utilize selective mining methods in which silver is the metal targeted for highest recovery.

Accordingly, we believe the identification of gold, lead and zinc as by-product credits at Greens Creek and Lucky Friday ~~and San Sebastian~~ is appropriate because of their lower economic value compared to silver and due to the fact that silver is the primary product we intend to produce. In addition, we have not consistently received sufficient revenue from any single by-product metal to warrant classification of such as a co-product.

We periodically review our revenues to ensure that reporting of primary products and by-products is appropriate. Because for Greens Creek, Lucky Friday and San Sebastian we consider zinc, lead and gold to be by-products of our silver production, the values of these metals offset operating costs within our calculations of Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce.

We believe the identification of silver as a by-product credit is appropriate at Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations because of its lower economic value compared to gold and due to the fact that gold is the primary product we intend to produce there. In addition, we do not receive sufficient revenue from silver at Casa Berardi to warrant classification of such as a co-product. Because we consider silver to be a by-product of our gold production at Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations, the value of silver offsets operating costs within our calculations of Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce.

For the second quarter ~~and first six months~~we recorded loss applicable to common shareholders of ~~2021, we recorded~~$13.7 million (($0.03) per basic common share) compared to income applicable to common shareholders of ~~$0.6~~$2.6 million ~~(0.1 cent~~(($0.01) per basic common share) ~~and $19.5 million (3.6 cents per basic common share), respectively,~~in the second quarter of 2021. The variances in gross profit (loss) at our operating units as illustrated in the table above contributed to the results for the second quarter of 2022 compared to ~~losses~~the same period in 2021. See The Greens Creek Segment,The Lucky Friday Segment, The Casa Berardi Segment and The Nevada Operations Segment sections below.

The impact of the lower gross profit in the period was partially offset by:

•

General and administrative expense decreased by $1.4 million primarily due to the lower value of the annual directors share grant reflecting a lower issuance date share price and lower number of shares issued following the retirement of two directors in May 2022.

•

Other operating expense decreased by $1.7 million primarily due to the receipt of $1.7 million in insurance proceeds related to a coverage lawsuit received during June 2022.

•

Net foreign exchange gains of $4.5 million versus a net loss of $1.9 million reflecting the depreciation of the CAD against the USD in 2022 versus an appreciation in 2021. The variances are primarily related to the impact of changes in the CAD-to-USD exchange rate on the remeasurement of our net monetary liabilities in Quebec.

•

Fair value adjustments, net were $1.6 million less than in the comparable quarter (see Note 9 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for more information).

•

~~Lower interest expense~~Care and maintenance costs increased by ~~$7.1~~$1.3 million ~~in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020, with the decrease~~ due to the suspension of production at the Nevada Operations.

The impact of these factors in the period was partially offset by:

•

General and administrative expense decreased by $1.1 million primarily due to the lower value of the annual directors share grant reflecting a lower issuance date share price and lower number of shares issued following ~~items~~the retirement of two directors in ~~2020: (i) interest recognized on both our 7.25% Senior Notes~~May 2022.

Net foreign exchange ~~losses~~gains of ~~$1.9 million and $4.0~~$2.4 million in the ~~second quarter and~~ first half of ~~2021, respectively,~~2022 versus a net loss of ~~$3.2~~$4.0 million, ~~and net gain of $3.4 million, respectively,~~ in the ~~second quarter and~~ first half of ~~2020.~~2021, reflecting the depreciation of the CAD against the USD in 2022 versus an appreciation in 2021. The variances are primarily related to the impact of changes in the CAD-to-USD exchange rate on the remeasurement of our net monetary liabilities in Quebec. During the first half of 2021, the CAD strengthened relative to the USD, resulting in a higher USD value for our net monetary liabilities denominated in CAD and a foreign exchange loss for the period. However, the CAD weakened relative to the USD during the first half of 2020.

•

Higher other operating expense by $2.2 million and $4.9 million in the second quarter and first half of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020 due to costs incurred to identify and implement potential operational improvements at Casa Berardi and Lucky Friday.

•

Provision for closed operations and environmental matters ~~increased~~decreased by ~~$3.2~~$2.4 million in the first half of ~~2021~~2022 compared to the first half of ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in the accrual for estimated costs at the Johnny M site in New Mexico in the first quarter of 2021 (see Note 10 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for more information).

•

General and administrative expense increased by $4.1 million and $3.2 million in the second quarter and first half of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020 primarily due to timing of issuance of shares to directors and higher accrued incentive compensation expense.

•

An unrealized loss on investments in other mining companies of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to a gain of $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2020. In the first half of 2021, we had a net loss on investments of $3.1 million, comprised of a $4.3 million unrealized loss and a $1.2 million gain on exchange of investments, compared to an unrealized loss of $5.4 million in the first half of 2020.

•

Exploration and pre-development expense increased by $8.7 million and $12.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. In the first half of 2021, exploration was primarily at our San Sebastian, Casa Berardi, Greens Creek and Nevada Operations units, while pre-development expense included $2.3 million related to development of the decline to allow drilling of the Hatter Graben area in Nevada.

•

Losses on base metal derivatives contracts of $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 and $16.8 million in the first half of 2021, compared to losses of $14.0 million in the second quarter and $6.1 million in the first half of 2020. See ~~Note 8~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~for more information.~~

•

Income and mining tax benefits of $4.8 million and $0.2 million for the second quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to an income tax provision of $0.6 million and benefit of $0.4 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2020. The benefits in the 2021 periods are primarily the result of losses in Nevada and Mexico, along with losses in Quebec in the second quarter of 2021, and are net of provisions for reclassification of certain income-based state and provincial taxes from ~~Cost of sales and other direct production costs~~ to ~~Income and mining tax provision~~ ~~(see~~ ~~Note 3~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~for more information).~~

In June 2020, we gifted 650,000 shares of our common stock valued at $2.0 million at the time of the gift to the Hecla Charitable Foundation (the “Foundation”), and recognized expense for that amount in the second quarter of 2020. The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) entity established in 2007 to provide grants and disburse funds for educational and charitable purposes to qualifying organizations in order to promote the social, environmental and economic sustainability and development of the communities where we have operations and activities.

See ~~Note 1~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ for more information. Cost of sales and other direct production costs for the second quarter and first half of 2020 included $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for Alaska mine license tax. The impacts of the factors above were partially offset by higher gold and zinc realized prices, and (iii) higher production costs reflecting the impact of more lower ~~metal sales volume due to lower production~~grade material processed and ~~the timing~~inflationary cost increases in consumables, labor and contractor costs.

The decrease in Cash ~~Costs~~Cost, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce for the second quarter and first six months of 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily due to higher by-product credits.

The increase in AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce for the second quarter and first six months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021 was primarily due to higher ~~by-product credits, lower treatment~~sustaining capital of $14.7 million and $20.6 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, compared to $6.3 million and $11.2 million in 2021, reflecting the costs being incurred on camp construction and ~~reclassification of mine license tax from production costs~~higher definition and development drilling during 2022 compared to ~~income and mining tax provision effective January 1,~~ 2021.

Restrictions imposed by the State of Alaska beginning in late March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 virus pandemic, including the requirement for employees returning to Alaska to self-quarantine for 14 days (changed in June 2020 to 7 days), has caused us to revise the normal operating procedures and incur additional costs for staffing operations at Greens Creek. The changes at Greens Creek have not materially impacted our operations to date; however, restrictions could have a material impact if they continue longer than anticipated or become broader.

~~Following settlement of the strike by unionized employees at Lucky Friday~~The decrease in early 2020, we commenced restaffing and ramp-up procedures and the mine returned to full production in the fourth quarter of 2020. Costs related to ramp-up activities totaled $5.2 million and $13.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, which included non-cash depreciation expense of $2.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively, and are included in a separate line item on our consolidated statements of operations. These ramp-up costs are excluded from the calculation of gross profit, Cash Cost ~~After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce~~ and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce ~~when presented.~~for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 was due to higher silver production resulting from increased grades and volumes processed, higher by-product credits due to higher realized zinc prices, and concentrate quality improvement resulting in higher lead and zinc production, with AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce partially offset by higher sustaining capital spending.

The decrease for the second quarter and first half of 2022 was due to higher cost of sales resulting from increased production costs due to: (i) higher ore tonnage, (ii) mill contractor costs related to maintenance and optimization activities, ~~and~~ (iii) higher underground maintenance costs resulting from repairs and replacements of major components for the production ~~fleet.~~fleet and (iv) higher fuel and other consumables costs which have been negatively impacted by current inflationary pressures. The impact of higher costs of sales was partially offset by increased sales due to higher average realized gold prices and volume. The increase in gross profit for the six month period was due to higher sales, partially offset by higher cost of sales resulting primarily from the same factors impacting the second quarter results. Mill throughput increased by 34% and 21%volume in the second quarter ~~and~~of 2022. Lower sales volume in the first half of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~the same periods of 2020, with the~~2021 due to lower ~~production~~grades mined and processed meant gross profit was not favorably impacted by higher realized prices in the 2020 periods partially due to a government COVID-19-related order.

The ~~$0.9 million and $2.5 million~~ decreases in gross ~~profit~~loss for the second quarter and first half of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020 are primarily due to lower metal volumes. Mining at San Sebastian was completed in the third quarter of 2020, and milling was completed in the fourth quarter of 2020, with exploration and evaluation activities ongoing.

Suspension-related costs at San Sebastian totaling $0.6 million and $1.4 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively, are reported in a separate line item on our consolidated statements of operations and excluded from the calculations of cost of sales and other direct production costs and depreciation, depletion and amortization, total production costs and Cash Cost and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce.

~~The decreases in gross profit for the second quarter and first half of 2021~~2022 compared to the same periods of ~~2020~~2021 were primarily the result of lower sales volumes and ~~increased~~lower write-downs of ore ~~stockpile~~stockpiled to estimated net realizable value. ~~Processing~~Development ceased at Fire Creek in the second quarter of 2019 when the decision was made to limit near-term production to areas of the mine where development was already completed. Mining of non-refractory ore at Fire Creek in areas where development had already been performed was completed in the fourth quarter of 2020. During 2021, production and revenue were generated from processing of the stockpiled non-refractory ore at the Midas mill and third-party processing of ~~a bulk sample of~~ refractory ore in a roaster ~~commenced at the end of the first quarter of 2021~~ and ~~was completed in the second quarter. We also expect to process an additional approximately 10,000 tons of Fire Creek refractory ore at the third-party~~autoclave facility, in the second half of 2021. The write-downs of ore stockpile inventory totaled approximately $9.4 million and $9.6 million in the second quarter and first half of 2021, respectively, compared to $1.5 million in such write-downs in the first half of 2020, with no portion of that amount recognized in the second quarter of 2020. During the second half of 2020, all ore mined at the Nevada Operations was stockpiled, with no ore milled and no production reported during that period. Mining of non-refractory ore at Fire Creek in areas where development has already been performed was completed in the fourth quarter of 2020.respectively. Fire Creek was placed on care-and-maintenance in the second quarter of 2021 after processing of the remaining non-refractory ore stockpile.

Total production costs per ton were lower by 86% and 75%, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively, due to higher mill throughput and lower mining and milling costs, as mine production was lower and mill throughput for the 2021 periods was from stockpiled material, including refractory ore processed at a third-party facility.

The increases in Cash Costs and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Gold ounce in the second quarter and first half of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020 were due to higher other costs for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 compared to the same periods of 2020, which included the cost of previously-stockpiled ore processed in 2021.

Corporate Matters

Employee Benefit Plans

Our defined benefit pension plans provide a significant benefit to our employees, but represent a significant liability to us. The liability recorded for the underfunded status of our plans was ~~$31.0~~$4.7 million and ~~$44.9~~$6.0 million as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. ~~In January 2021,~~During May 2022, we contributed ~~$16.8~~$5.6 million in shares of our common stock to two of our ~~supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”), and expect to contribute approximately $0.8 million in cash to the SERP in 2021.~~defined benefit plans. We do not expect to ~~be required to contribute~~make additional contributions to our defined benefit pension plans in ~~2021,~~2022, but may choose to do so. While the economic variables which will determine future funding requirements are uncertain, we expect contributions to continue to be required in future years under current plan provisions, and we periodically examine the plans for affordability and competitiveness. See Note 96 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K for more information.

Income Taxes

During the second quarter and first six months of ~~2021,~~2022, an income and mining tax ~~benefits~~provision of approximately ~~$4.8~~$0.3 million and ~~$0.2~~$5.9 million ~~respectively,~~ resulted in an effective tax ~~rates~~rate of ~~(1.1)%~~1.9% and ~~119.3%, respectively,~~168.9% for ~~those~~the respective periods. This compares to an income and mining tax benefit of $4.1 million and provision of $0.6 ~~and a benefit of $0.4~~ million ~~or effective tax rates of (4.7)% and 1.4%,~~ for the second quarter and first six months of ~~2020, respectively.~~2021, or an effective tax rate of 298.3% and 2.5%, for the respective periods. The comparability of our income and mining tax (provision) benefit and effective tax rate for the reported periods was impacted by multiple factors, primarily: (i) mining taxes; (ii) variations in our income before income taxes; (iii) geographic distribution of that income; (iv) foreign exchange ~~rates;~~rates including non-recognition of foreign exchange gains and losses; (v) percentage depletion; and (vi) the non-recognition of tax ~~assets; and (vii) the reclassification of the Alaska mine license tax effective January 1, 2021, which increased our income and mining tax provision by $6.5 million. Therefore, the~~assets. The effective tax rate will fluctuate, sometimes significantly, period to period. For the period ended March 31, 2022, we used the annual effective tax rate method to calculate the tax provision, a change from the discrete method used for the period ended March 31, 2021, due to reversal of valuation allowance in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Each reporting period we assess our deferred tax balances based on a review of long-range forecasts and quarterly activity. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not ~~that~~ the related tax benefits will not be realized. We analyze our deferred tax assets and, if it is determined that we will not realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets, we will record or increase a valuation allowance. Conversely, if it is determined we will ultimately more likely than not be able to realize all or a portion of the related benefits for which a valuation allowance has been provided, all or a portion of the related valuation allowance will be reduced. There are a number of factors that impact our ability to realize our deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances are provided on deferred tax assets in our Nevada, Mexico, and certain Canadian jurisdictions. For additional information, please see~~Note 3~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~and~~ Item 1A - Risk Factors in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K.

Reconciliation of Total Cost of Sales ~~and Other Direct Production Costs and Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (GAAP)~~ to Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits and Cash Cost, After By-product Credits (non-GAAP) and All-In Sustaining Cost, Before By-product Credits and All-In Sustaining Cost, After By-product Credits (non-GAAP)

The tables below present reconciliations between the most comparable GAAP measure of total cost of sales ~~and other direct production costs and depreciation, depletion and amortization~~ to the non-GAAP measures of (i) Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits, (ii) Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, (iii) AISC, Before By-product Credits and (iv) AISC, After By-product Credits for our operations ~~at the Greens Creek, Lucky Friday, San Sebastian, Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations units~~ and for the Company for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021.

Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce are measures developed by precious metals companies (including the Silver Institute and the World Gold Council) in an effort to provide a uniform standard for comparison purposes. There can be no assurance, however, that these non-GAAP measures as we report them are the same as those reported by other mining companies.

Table of Contents

Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce is an important operating statistic that we utilize to measure each mine's operating performance. We use AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce as a measure of our mines' net cash flow after costs for exploration, pre-development, reclamation, and sustaining capital. This is similar to the Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce non-GAAP measure we report, but also includes on-site exploration, reclamation, and sustaining capital costs. Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain silver and gold production. Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce also allow us to benchmark the performance of each of our mines versus those of our competitors. As a silver and gold mining company, we also use these statistics on an aggregate basis - aggregating the Greens Creek and Lucky Friday ~~and San Sebastian~~ mines - to compare our performance with that of other silver mining companies, and aggregating Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations for comparison with other gold mining companies. Similarly, these statistics are useful in identifying acquisition and investment opportunities as they provide a common tool for measuring the financial performance of other mines with varying geologic, metallurgical and operating characteristics.

~~Table of Contents~~

Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits and AISC, Before By-product Credits include all direct and indirect operating cash costs related directly to the physical activities of producing metals, including mining, processing and other plant costs, third-party refining expense, on-site general and administrative costs, royalties and mining production taxes. AISC, Before By-product Credits for each mine also includes on-site exploration, reclamation, and sustaining capital costs. AISC, Before By-product Credits for our consolidated silver properties also includes corporate costs for general and administrative expense and sustaining exploration and capital costs. By-product credits include revenues earned from all metals other than the primary metal produced at each unit. As depicted in the tables below, by-product credits comprise an essential element of our silver unit cost structure, distinguishing our silver operations due to the polymetallic nature of their orebodies.

In addition to the uses described above, Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce provide management and investors an indication of operating cash flow, after consideration of the average price received from production. We also use these measurements for the comparative monitoring of performance of our mining operations period-to-period from a cash flow perspective.

The Casa Berardi, Nevada Operations and combined gold properties information below reports Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce for the production of gold, their primary product, and by-product revenues earned from silver, which is a by-product at Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations. Only costs and ounces produced relating to units with the same primary product are combined to represent Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce. Thus, the gold produced at our Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations units is not included as a by-product credit when calculating Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce for the total of Greens Creek and Lucky Friday, ~~and San Sebastian,~~ our combined silver properties. Similarly, the silver produced at our other ~~three~~two units is not included as a by-product credit when calculating the gold metrics for Casa Berardi and Nevada Operations.

Reconciliation of Cash Provided by Operating Activities (GAAP) to Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP)

The non-GAAP measure of free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP) less additions to properties, plants, equipment and mineral interests (GAAP). Management believes that, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, free cash flow is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance. The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow:

Financial Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have a disciplined cash management strategy of maintaining financial flexibility to execute our capital priorities and provide long-term value to our shareholders. Consistent with that strategy, we aim to ~~reduce our net debt and~~ maintain sufficient liquidity to fund debt service costs, operations, capital development and exploration projects, while returning cash to stockholders through dividends and potential share repurchases.

At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we had ~~$181.5~~$198.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, of which ~~$16.8~~$23.8 million was held in foreign subsidiaries' local currency that we anticipate utilizing for near-term operating, exploration or capital costs by those foreign subsidiaries. We also have USD cash and cash equivalent balances held by our foreign subsidiaries that, if repatriated, may be subject to withholding taxes. We expect that there would be no additional tax burden upon repatriation after considering the cash cost associated with the withholding taxes. We believe that our liquidity and capital resources from our U.S. operations are adequate to fund our U.S. operations and corporate activities.

The value of non-current marketable equity securities decreased by $8.2 million.

~~On February 19, 2020,~~Overview above, we ~~completed an offering of Senior Notes in the total principal amount of USD$475 million~~. The Senior Notes are due February 15, 2028 and bear interest at a rate of 7.25% per year from the most recent payment date on which interest has been paid or provided for. In July 2020, we agreed to issue our Series 2020-A Senior Notes due July 9, 2025 (the “IQ Notes”) for CAD$50 million (approximately USD$36.8 million at the time of the transaction) in aggregate principal amount, which mature in July 2025 and bear interest at a rate of 6.515% per year. We also have a $250 million revolving credit facility, with interest payable on amounts drawn at an annual rate of between 2.25% and 4.00% over the London Interbank Offered Rate, or between 1.25% and 3.00% over an alternative base rate. There was no amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2021, with the exception of $19.9 million utilized for letters of credit. See ~~Note 7~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~for more information on our debt arrangements.~~

We continue to address the COVID-19 outbreak and face uncertainty related to the potential additional ~~impact~~impacts it could have on our operations. It is possible that future restrictions at any of our operations could have a material adverse impact on operations or financial results beyond 2021. We have taken precautionary measures to mitigate the impactThe impacts of COVID-19 including implementing revised operational plans. As long as they are required, the revised operational practices could continue to have an adverse impact on our operating results due to deferred production and ~~revenues or additional costs. If required,~~ increasing or prolonged restrictions, if required, on our operations could require access to additional sources of liquidity, which may not be available to us. ~~See~~ Item 1A. Risk Factors - Natural disasters, public health crises, political crises (including COVID-19), and other catastrophic events or other events outside of our control may materially and adversely affect our business or financial results ~~and~~ ~~COVID-19 virus pandemic may heighten other risks~~ ~~in our 2020 Form 10-K for information on how restrictions related to COVID-19 have affected some of our operations.~~

Pursuant to our common stock dividend policy described inNote 6 of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~and~~ ~~Note 10~~12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statementsin our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K, our ~~Board~~board of ~~Directors~~directors declared and paid dividends on common stock totaling ~~$10.7~~$3.4 million in the first ~~half~~and second quarters of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$2.6~~$4.7 million and $6.0 million in the first ~~half~~and second quarters of ~~2020.~~2021, respectively. Our dividend policy has a silver-linked component which ties the amount of declared common stock dividends to our realized silver price for the preceding quarter. Another component of our common stock dividend policy anticipates paying an annual minimum dividend. ~~During May 2021, our Board~~

Table of Directors approved an increase in our silver-linked dividend by 1 cent per year, and in May and August 2021, approved, along with the minimum dividend of 0.375 cent per share, quarterly silver-linked dividends of 0.75 cent per share based on the realized silver price of $25.66 and $27.14 in the first and second quarters of 2021, respectively.

The declaration and payment of dividends on common stock is at the sole discretion of our board of directors, and there can be no assurance that we will continue to declare and pay common stock dividends in the future.

Pursuant to our stock repurchase program described in Note 1012 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K, we are authorized to repurchase up to 20 million shares of our outstanding common stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, depending on prevailing market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be modified, suspended or discontinued by us at any time. Whether or not we engage in repurchases from time to time may depend on a variety of factors, including not only price and cash resources, but customary black-out restrictions, whether we have any material inside information, limitations on share repurchases or cash usage that may be imposed by our credit agreement or in connection with issuances of securities, alternative uses for cash, applicable law, and other investment opportunities from time to time. As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, 934,100 shares had been purchased in prior periods at an average price of $3.99 per share, leaving 19.1 million shares that may yet be purchased under the program. We have not repurchased any shares since June 2014. The closing price of our common stock at August ~~3, 2021,~~1, 2022, was ~~$6.62~~$4.49 per share.

Pursuant to an equity distribution agreement dated February 18, 2021, we may offer and sell up to 60 million shares of our common stock from time to time to or through sales agents in “at-the-market” (ATM) offerings. Sales of the shares, if any, will be made by means of ordinary brokers transactions or as otherwise agreed between the Company and the agents as principals. Whether or not we engage in sales from time to time may depend on a variety of factors, including share price, our cash resources, customary black-out restrictions, and whether we have any material inside information. The agreement can be terminated by us at any time. Any shares issued under the equity distribution agreement are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3. No shares have been sold under the agreement as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

We may defer some capital investment and/or exploration and pre-development activities, engage in asset sales or secure additional capital if necessary to maintain liquidity. We also may pursue additional acquisition opportunities, which could require additional equity issuances or other forms of financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us.

~~Table of Contents~~

As a result of our current cash balances, the performance of our current and expected operations, current metals prices, proceeds from potential at-the-market sales of common stock, and availability ofunder our revolving credit facility, we believe we will be able to meet our obligations and other potential cash requirements during the next 12 months from the date of this report. Our obligations and other uses of cash may include, but are not limited to: debt service obligations related to the Senior Notes and IQ Notes; principal and interest payments under our revolving credit facility; deferral of revenues, care-and-maintenance and other costs related to addressing the impacts of COVID-19 on our operations; capital expenditures at our operations; potential acquisitions of other mining companies or properties; regulatory matters; litigation; potential repurchases of our common stock under the program described above; and payment of dividends on common stock, if declared by our board of directors. We currently estimate a ~~total~~range of approximately ~~$120~~$150 to 160 million will be spent in ~~2021~~2022 on capital expenditures, primarily for equipment, infrastructure, and development at our mines, including ~~$49.0~~$60.9 million already incurred as of June 30, ~~2021 and excluding $7.5 million for the acquisition of royalty interests at our operations.~~2022, before any lease financing. We also estimate exploration and pre-development expenditures will total approximately ~~$48.5~~$45.0 million in ~~2021,~~2022, including ~~$17.9~~$24.0 million already incurred as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Our expenditures for these items and our related plans for ~~2021~~2022 may change based upon our financial position, metals prices, and other considerations. Our ability to fund the activities described above will depend on our operating performance, metals prices, our ability to estimate revenues and costs, sources of liquidity available to us, including the revolving credit facility, and other factors. A sustained downturn in metals prices, significant increase in operational or capital costs or other uses of cash, our inability to access the credit facility or the sources of liquidity discussed above, or other factors beyond our control could impact our plans.

We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business. Substantially all lease agreements have fixed payment terms based on the passage of time. Some lease agreements provide us with the option to renew the lease or purchase the leased property. Our future operating lease obligations would change if we exercised these renewal options and if we entered into additional operating lease arrangements.

We sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all U.S. employees and provide certain post-retirement benefits for qualifying retired employees, along with a supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”). These amounts represent our estimate of the future benefit payment requirements for the next 10 years for the SERP as of June 30, 2021. However, in January 2021, we contributed $16.8 million in shares of our common stock to the SERP in order to fund future benefit payments. We believe we will have future funding requirements related to our defined benefit pension plans and benefit payment obligations for the SERP beyond 10 years; however, such funding requirements are not fixed in nature and are difficult to estimate, as they involve significant assumptions. See ~~Note 4~~ of ~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~ ~~for more information.~~

Critical Accounting Estimates

There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we had no existing off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC regulations, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Guarantor Subsidiaries

Presented below are Hecla’s unaudited interim condensed consolidating financial statements as required by Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, resulting from the guarantees by certain of Hecla's subsidiaries of the Senior Notes and IQ Notes (see Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for more information). The Guarantors consist of the following of Hecla's 100%-owned subsidiaries: Hecla Limited; Silver Hunter Mining Company; Rio Grande Silver, Inc.; Hecla MC Subsidiary, LLC; Hecla Silver Valley, Inc.; Burke Trading, Inc.; Hecla Montana, Inc.; Revett Silver Company; RC Resources, Inc.; Troy Mine Inc.; Revett Exploration, Inc.; Revett Holdings, Inc.; Mines Management, Inc.; Newhi, Inc.; Montanore Minerals Corp.; Hecla Alaska LLC; Hecla Greens Creek Mining Company; Hecla Admiralty Company; Hecla Juneau Mining Company; Klondex Holdings Inc.; Klondex Gold & Silver Mining Co.; Klondex Midas Holdings Limited; Klondex Aurora Mine Inc.; Klondex Hollister Mine Inc; and Hecla Quebec, Inc. We completed the offering of the Senior Notes on February 19, 2020 under our shelf registration statement previously filed with the SEC. We issued the IQ Notes in four equal tranches between July and October 2020.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidating financial statements below have been prepared from our financial information on the same basis of accounting as the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements set forth elsewhere in this report. Investments in the subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method. Accordingly, the entries necessary to consolidate Hecla, the Guarantors, and our non-guarantor subsidiaries are reflected in the intercompany eliminations column. In the course of preparing consolidated financial statements, we eliminate the effects of various transactions conducted between Hecla and its subsidiaries and among the subsidiaries. While valid at an individual subsidiary level, such activities are eliminated in consolidation because, when taken as a whole, they do not represent business activity with third-party customers, vendors, and other parties. Examples of such eliminations include the following:

•

Investments in subsidiaries. The acquisition of a company results in an investment in debt or equity capital on the records of the parent company and a contribution to debt or equity capital on the records of the subsidiary. Such investments and capital contributions are eliminated in consolidation.

~~Table of Contents~~

•

Capital contributions. Certain of Hecla's subsidiaries do not generate cash flow, either at all or that is sufficient to meet their capital needs, and their cash requirements are routinely met with inter-company advances from their parent companies. Generally on an annual basis, when not otherwise intended as debt, the boards of directors of such parent companies declare contributions of capital to their subsidiary companies, which increase the parents' investment and the subsidiaries' additional paid-in capital. In consolidation, investments in subsidiaries and related additional paid-in capital are eliminated.

Table of Contents

•

Debt. At times, inter-company debt agreements have been established between certain of Hecla's subsidiaries and their parents. The related debt liability and receivable balances, accrued interest expense (if any) and income activity (if any), and payments of principal and accrued interest amounts (if any) by the subsidiary companies to their parents are eliminated in consolidation.

•

Dividends. Certain of Hecla's subsidiaries which generate cash flow routinely provide cash to their parent companies through inter-company transfers. On at least an annual basis, the boards of directors of such subsidiary companies declare dividends to their parent companies, which reduces the subsidiaries' retained earnings and increases the parents' dividend income. In consolidation, such activity is eliminated.

Deferred taxes. Our ability to realize deferred tax assets and liabilities is considered for two consolidated tax groups of subsidiaries within the United States: The Nevada U.S. Group and the Hecla U.S. Group. Within each tax group, all subsidiaries' estimated future taxable income contributes to the ability of their tax group to realize all such assets and liabilities. However, when Hecla's subsidiaries are viewed independently, we use the separate return method to assess the realizability of each subsidiary's deferred tax assets and whether a valuation allowance is required against such deferred tax assets. In some instances, a parent company or subsidiary may possess deferred tax assets whose realization depends on the future taxable incomes of other subsidiaries on a consolidated-return basis, but would not be considered realizable if such parent or subsidiary filed on a separate stand-alone basis. In such a situation, a valuation allowance is assessed on that subsidiary's deferred tax assets, with the resulting adjustment reported in the eliminations column of the guarantor and parent's financial statements, as is the case in the unaudited interim financial statements set forth below. The separate return method can result in significant eliminations of deferred tax assets and liabilities and related income tax provisions and benefits. Non-current deferred tax asset balances are included in other non-current assets on the consolidating balance sheets and make up a large portion of that item, particularly for the guarantor balances.

Separate financial statements of the Guarantors are not presented because the guarantees by the Guarantors are joint and several and full and unconditional, except for certain customary release provisions, including: (1) the sale or disposal of all or substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor; (2) the sale or other disposition of the capital stock of the Guarantor; (3) the Guarantor is designated as an unrestricted entity in accordance with the applicable provisions of the indenture; (4) Hecla ceases to be a borrower as defined in the indenture; and (5) upon legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the indenture.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The following discussion about our exposure to market risks and risk management activities includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as summarizes the financial instruments held by us at June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, which are sensitive to changes in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates and are not held for trading purposes. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. In the normal course of business, we also face risks that are either non-financial or non-quantifiable (See Item 1A. – Risk Factors of our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K).

Metals Prices

Changes in the market prices of silver, gold, lead and zinc can significantly affect our profitability and cash flow. ~~Metal~~Metals prices can and often do fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control (see Item 1A – Risk Factors – A substantial or extended decline in metals prices would have a material adverse effect on us in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K). We utilize financially-settled forward and put option contracts to manage our exposure to changes in prices for silver, gold, zinc and lead.

Provisional Sales

Sales of all metals products sold directly to customers, including by-product metals, are recorded as revenues when all performance obligations have been completed and the transaction price can be determined or reasonably estimated. For concentrate sales, revenues are generally recorded at the time of shipment at forward prices for the estimated month of settlement. Due to the time elapsed between shipment to the customer and the final settlement with the customer we must estimate the prices at which sales of our metals will be settled. Previously recorded sales are adjusted to estimated settlement metals prices until final settlement by the customer. Changes in metals prices between shipment and final settlement will result in changes to revenues previously recorded upon shipment. Metals prices can and often do fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control (see Item 1A – Risk Factors – A substantial or extended decline in metals prices would have a material adverse effect on us in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K). At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, metals contained in concentrate sales and exposed to future price changes totaled ~~2.7~~2.2 million ounces of silver, ~~7,921~~2,840 ounces of gold, ~~9,842~~5,828 tons of zinc, and ~~6,447~~4,669 tons of lead. If the price for each metal were to change by 10%, the change in the total value of the concentrates sold would be approximately ~~$12.3~~$8.1 million. As discussed in Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), we utilize a program designed and intended to mitigate the risk of negative price adjustments with limited mark-to-market financially-settled forward contracts for our silver, gold, zinc and lead sales.

Commodity-Price Risk Management

See Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K for a description of our commodity-price risk management program.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

We operate or have mining interests in Canada and Mexico, which exposes us to risks associated with fluctuations in the exchange rates between the USD and the CAD and MXN, respectively. We have determined the functional currency for our Canadian and Mexican operations is the USD. As such, foreign exchange gains and losses associated with the re-measurement of monetary assets and liabilities from CAD and MXN to USD are recorded to earnings each period. For the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021 and 2020,~~2022 we recognized a net foreign exchange gain of $4.5 million and $2.4 million respectively, compared to a net foreign exchange loss of $1.9 million and $4.0 million, ~~and gain of $3.4 million, respectively.~~respectively for the comparable periods in 2021. Foreign currency exchange rates are influenced by a number of factors beyond our control. A 10% change in the exchange rate between the USD and CAD from the rate at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 would have resulted in a change of approximately ~~$10.8~~$7.7 million in our net foreign exchange gain or loss. A 10% change in the exchange rate between the USD and MXN from the rate at June 30, ~~2021~~2022 would have resulted in a change of approximately $0.1 million in our net foreign exchange gain or loss. We do not hedge the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities. We do hedge some of our operating and capital costs denominated in foreign currency.

See Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our ~~2020~~2021 Form 10-K for a description of our foreign currency risk management.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us is accumulated and communicated to our management (including our CEO and CFO), were effective as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, in assuring them in a timely manner that material information required to be disclosed in this report has been properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information concerning legal proceedings, refer to Note 10 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), which is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Item 1A. – Risk Factors of our ~~annual report filed on~~2021 Form 10-K ~~for the year ended December 31, 2020~~ sets forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

On July 4, 2022, we entered into an arrangement agreement with Alexco Resource Corp. (“Alexco”) pursuant to which we would acquire all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Alexco. See Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for more information. The proposed acquisition is subject to approval by Alexco’s stockholders and receipt of certain regulatory approvals. The information below includes additional risk factors related to the potential acquisition.

Risk Factors Relating to the Acquisition

The acquisition of Alexco may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated or at all. Failure to complete the acquisition could negatively impact our stock price and future business and financial results.

The completion of the transactions contemplated by the arrangement agreement is subject to certain conditions, including (1) approval and adoption by Alexco shareholders, (2) approval by the Supreme Court of British Columbia and receipt of certain other regulatory approvals, (3) the absence of certain legal impediments and (4) other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance the acquisition will be consummated on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all. We have expended and will continue to expend a significant amount of time and resources on the acquisition, and a failure to consummate the acquisition as currently contemplated, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

If the acquisition is not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and we will be subject to several risks, including the following:

•

having to pay substantial other costs and expenses relating to the proposed transaction, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees and integration costs that have already been incurred and will continue to be incurred until closing;

•

the focus of our management on the acquisition instead of on pursuing other opportunities that could be beneficial to us; and

•

the market price of our common stock could decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the acquisition will be completed;

in each case, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of having the acquisition completed. In addition, if the acquisition is not completed, we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets and from our employees and other stakeholders. We could also be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the acquisition or to perform our obligations under the arrangement agreement. If the acquisition is not completed, we cannot assure our stockholders that these risks will not materialize and will not materially affect our business, financial results and stock price.

The agreement for the acquisition of Alexco may be terminated by us in certain circumstances, including in the event of the occurrence of an Alexco material adverse effect.

Both we and Alexco have the right to terminate the arrangement agreement in certain circumstances. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the arrangement agreement will not be terminated by either us or Alexco before the completion of the acquisition. For example, we have the right, in certain circumstances, to terminate the arrangement agreement if an Alexco material adverse effect, as defined in the agreement, occurs.

Table of Contents

The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in either our or Alexco’s stock price.

Upon the closing of the acquisition, each share of Alexco common stock (other than shares already owned by us) will be converted into the right to receive 0.116 of a share of our common stock. This exchange ratio was fixed in the arrangement agreement and will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either our common stock or Alexco common stock. Changes in the price of our common stock prior to the acquisition will affect the market value that Alexco shareholders will receive on the date of the acquisition. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors (many of which are beyond the control of us orAlexco), including, without limitation, the following:

•

changes in our or Alexco’s businesses, operations, performance and prospects;

•

changes in market assessments of the business, operations and prospects of us or Alexco;

•

investor behavior and strategies, including market assessments of the likelihood that the acquisition will be completed;

•

interest rates, metals prices, general market and economic conditions and other factors generally affecting the price of our and Alexco’s common stock; and

•

federal, state, provincial and local legislation, governmental regulation and legal developments in the businesses in which we and Alexco operate.

The price of our common stock at the closing of the acquisition may vary from its price on the date the arrangement agreement was executed, on the date of this Form 10-Q and on the date of the shareholder meeting of Alexco. As a result, the market value represented by the exchange ratio will also vary.

Any delay in completing the acquisition may reduce or eliminate the expected benefits from the acquisition.

In addition to the required Alexco shareholder approval and adoption, the acquisition is subject to a number of other conditions beyond our and Alexco’s control that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion. We and Alexco cannot predict whether and when these other conditions will be satisfied. Furthermore, obtaining the required approval and adoption could delay the completion of the acquisition for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring. Any delay in completing the acquisition could cause us not to realize some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the acquisition is successfully completed within its expected time frame.

The acquisition will involve substantial costs.

We and Alexco have incurred and expect to continue to incur substantial costs and expenses relating directly to the transaction, including fees and expenses payable to legal, accounting and financial advisors and other professional fees relating to the transaction, insurance premium costs, fees and costs relating to regulatory filings and notices, printing and mailing costs and other transaction-related costs, fees and expenses.

Risk Factors Relating to Us Following the Acquisition

We will incur transaction and integration costs in connection with the acquisition.

We and Alexco expect to incur transaction fees and other costs related to the acquisition. In addition to transaction costs related to the acquisition, we will incur integration costs following the completion of the acquisition as we integrate the Alexco business with that of ours.

After completion of the acquisition, we may fail to realize anticipated benefits.

The success of the acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from the acquisition of Alexco. If we are not able to successfully integrate Alexco into our operations within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.

The market price of our common stock following the acquisition may decline as a result of the acquisition.

The market price of our common stock following the acquisition may decline as a result of the acquisition for a number of reasons, including the unsuccessful integration of Alexco and our business, our failure to achieve the perceived benefits of the acquisition, including financial results, or declines in the mining industry, the market price of silver, our business or the economy as a whole. These factors are, to some extent, beyond our control.

Uncertainties associated with the acquisition may cause a loss of management personnel and other key employees of Alexco which could adversely affect future business and operations following the acquisition.

Hecla and Alexco are dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of their officers, other key employees and hourly employees at the mine sites to execute their business plans and conduct operations. Success after the acquisition will depend in part upon its ability to retain key employees of Alexco, as well as hourly employees. Current and prospective employees of Alexco may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Hecla following the acquisition, which may materially adversely affect the ability of Alexco to attract and retain key personnel during the pendency of the acquisition. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that Hecla will be able to retain key employees or hourly employees of Alexco. Losses of such personnel could adversely affect the business and operations of Hecla after the acquisition is complete.

The Alexco properties and any others we may acquire may not produce as expected and may not generate additional reserves, and may come with liabilities beyond those known at the time of acquisition.

The properties we acquire in the acquisition of Alexco, if consummated, or in other acquisitions may not produce as expected, may not generate reserves beyond those known at the time of acquisition, may be in an unexpected condition and we may be subject to increased costs and liabilities, including environmental liabilities. Although we review properties prior to acquisition in a manner consistent with industry practices, such reviews are not capable of identifying all potential adverse conditions. Generally, it is not feasible to review in depth every individual property involved in each acquisition. Even a detailed review of records and properties may not necessarily reveal existing or potential problems or permit a buyer to become sufficiently familiar with the properties to fully assess their condition, any deficiencies, and development potential.

Our number of outstanding common shares will increase as a result of the acquisition and the stream termination agreement and our stock price could be affected.

As indicated in Note 12, we have also entered into an agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals ("WPM") to terminate WPM’s silver streaming interest at Alexco’s Keno Hill property in exchange for $135 million of our common stock, conditional upon completion of the acquisition. As a result, if the acquisition is completed, it will result, together with the stream termination agreement, in the issuance of common stock that is expected to represent approximately [__]% of our outstanding common stock following completion of the transactions. This increase in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding could have a negative effect on our stock price.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Securities and Use of Proceeds

On May 19, 2022, we issued 290,0000 unregistered shares of our common stock to the Lucky Friday Pension Plan Trust and 900,000 shares to the Hecla Mining Company Retirement Plan Trust in private placements in order to fund those defined benefit pension plans. The private placements were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to section 4(a)(2) of that Act. The shares will be registered for resale on a registration statement on Form S-3 to be filed with the SEC within 120 days of May 19, 2022. We did not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the shares. The shares had a value of approximately $5.6 million at the time of issuance.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

The information concerning mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K is included in exhibit 95 to this Quarterly Report.
