++The company's revenue was a record $13.5 billion in 2021, compared with $8.9 billion in 2020 and $11.9 billion in 2019. The increase in 2021 revenue from 2020 was primarily due to substantially higher prices for its principal products and increased sales volumes of steelmaking coal. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in sales volumes of refined zinc and zinc in concentrate and by the strengthening of the Canadian dollar. The decrease in 2020 revenue from 2019 revenue was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 on prices for its products, most significantly steelmaking coal, zinc and blended bitumen. Revenue was also negatively impacted in 2020 by significantly lower sales volumes for steelmaking coal due to the impact of COVID-19 on demand, logistics chain issues early in the year and the planned shutdown at Neptune. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in copper prices.

  Average prices for copper, zinc, steelmaking coal and blended bitumen were 51%, 32%, 85% and 108% higher in 2021 than in 2020.
--
  The company's principal commodities are copper, zinc, steelmaking coal and blended bitumen, which accounted for 23%, 16%, 46% and 5% of revenue, respectively, in 2021. Silver and lead are significant by-products of its zinc operations, accounting for 7% of its 2021 revenue. The company also produce a number of other by-products, including molybdenum, various specialty metals, and chemicals and fertilizers, which in total accounted for 3% of its revenue in 2021.

  The company's cost of sales was $8.4 billion in 2021, compared with $7.6 billion in 2020 and $8.6 billion in 2019. The increase in cost of sales in 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily due to an increase in production volumes during the year. Depreciation and amortization increased by $73 million compared to 2020 as a result of higher production volumes.
--
  The company's exploration expenses in 2021 of $65 million were focused on copper, zinc and gold and were higher than expenditures in 2020 of $45 million, primarily due to the recommencement of drilling programs across its portfolio.

  In 2020, non-operating income (expense) included a gain of $56 million on the revaluation of the financial liability for the preferential dividend stream relating to ENAMI’s interest in QBSA. This was partially offset by an $11 million loss on the purchase of US$268 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding notes. In 2019, non-operating expenses included a $224 million loss on the redemption of its 8.5% notes due in 2024 and foreign exchange losses of $4 million.
--
  These losses were partially offset by a $105 million gain on the debt prepayment option in the 8.5% 2024 notes up to the date of redemption and a gain of $37 million on the revaluation of the financial liability for the preferential dividend stream relating to ENAMI’s interest in QBSA.

  The company's liquidity remained strong at $6.5 billion as at December 31, 2021, including $1.4 billion of cash, of which $88 million is in Chile for the development of the QB2 project and $38 million is held in Antamina. At December 31, 2021, the principal balance of its term notes was US$3.5 billion and the company maintained a US$4 billion undrawn revolving credit facility. As at December 31, 2021, US$2.3 billion was outstanding under its US$2.5 billion QB2 project financing facility. In July 2021, Antamina entered into a new US$1.0 billion loan agreement. The company's 22.5% share of the loan, if fully drawn, will be US$225 million. Proceeds from the loan have been used to repay the existing credit facilities and will be used to fund capital expenditures going forward. The loan is non-recourse to it and the other Antamina owners and matures in July 2026. Based on its strong financial position, the company expect to be able to maintain its operations and fund its development activities as planned.

  The company's outstanding debt was $8.1 billion at December 31, 2021, compared with $6.9 billion at the end of 2020 and $4.8 billion at the end of 2019. The increase in 2021 is due to a draw of US$1.1 billion on the QB2 project financing facility and an increase in its share of Antamina loans, partially offset by the repayment of amounts drawn on its revolving credit facility.
