Third quarter financial results. Sierra Metals reported an adjusted net loss of $10.7 million or $(0.07) per share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $3.1 million or $(0.02) per share during the prior year period. Third quarter revenue from metals payable declined 36% to $38.8 million due to a decrease in metal sales and a decline in average realized prices for all metals. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $(3.9) million compared to $17.4 million during the third quarter of 2021 due mainly to lower sales and commodity prices. Third quarter production was negatively impacted, among other things, by a mudslide at the Yauricocha mine and flooding at the Bolivar mine.
Updating estimates. We have lowered our full year 2022 EPS and EBITDA estimates to $(0.13) and $18.0 million from $(0.08) and $29.9 million, respectively. Additionally, we have reduced our 2023 EPS and EBITDA estimates to $0.07 and $63.2 million from $0.12 and $76.1 million. Our estimates reflect lower production levels for both Yauricocha and Bolivar.
