NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 1
Enhanced Capital Allocation Framework
Newmont announced an enhanced capital allocation framework, designed to be sustainable through the commodity cycle while maximizing total return of capital to shareholders, maintaining a flexible and resilient balance sheet, and focusing on high-return capital investments for long-term value creation. The capital allocation uses below are presented in order of priority.
Ongoing Sustaining Capital Investment in World-Class Portfolio
Newmont sees a clear opportunity to enhance the longevity of its portfolio and preserve asset integrity through targeted investments in critical infrastructure, ensuring the delivery of safe production across its operations. This includes tailings solutions, primarily at Cadia and Boddington, to support near- and long-term production capacity, positioning Newmont's world-class operations to produce well into the middle of the century. These investments will require elevated sustaining capital spend over the next few years. Reflective of this approach, Newmont expects to spend $1.95 billion in 2026, as detailed in the '2026 Guidance Expectations' section below.
Sustainable Through the Cycle Cash Dividend
Newmont is committed to returning capital to shareholders through a sustainable cash dividend of $1.1 billion per year. Central to this framework is a dividend structured to grow on a per share basis without increasing Newmont's financial commitment, as share repurchases executed through the cycle permanently lower the outstanding share count. The annual total per share dividend target will be calculated annually in February based on the current number of shares issued and outstanding. The dividend payment will be divided into four equal payments rounded up to the nearest $0.01, to be paid out on a quarterly basis, subject to quarterly approval by Newmont's Board of Directors. A dividend of $0.26 per share has been declared payable on March 26, 2026, to holders of record of such common stock at the close of business on March 3, 2026. This equates to an indicated total annualized dividend of $1.04 per share, demonstrating the initial benefit of Newmont’s ongoing share repurchase program, with continued per share dividend increases expected as share repurchases continue.
Disciplined Approach to Development Capital Reinvestment
Newmont expects to spend $1.4 billion in development capital in 2026 as it advances the highest-return free cash flow generative near-term projects, while continuing to study, evaluate and define the future growth profile of its portfolio. Newmont will maintain a disciplined focus on capital efficiency and value creation. Please refer to the '2026 Guidance Expectations' and 'Disciplined Reinvestment in Organic Project Pipeline' sections below for additional details.
Maintaining an Optimized Capital Structure Through the Cycle
Newmont is focused on maintaining a resilient balance sheet, anchored by a $1 billion net cash target, with flexibility of plus or minus $2 billion depending on market conditions. This approach ensures Newmont's ability to return capital to shareholders and fund capital programs across commodity price cycles to support sustainable production growth. During strong commodity price environments, Newmont intends to further optimize its balance sheet by actively manage gross debt, while maintaining a minimum cash balance of $5 billion through the cycle.
Ratable Share Repurchase Program
Once the above priorities are complete, Newmont intends to deploy excess cash on a ratable basis to share repurchases, driving sustained per share growth in the dividend and improving multiple per share metrics, including providing shareholders with greater exposure to the strong free cash flow generation from Newmont's world-class portfolio. As of the date of filing, Newmont has $2.4 billion remaining under the previously authorized open-ended programs of $6.0 billion. Further share repurchase program authorizations are subject to the discretion of Newmont's Board of Directors.
See cautionary statement at the end of this release. The Capital Allocation Framework is provided for illustrative purposes and remains non-binding. Guidance expectations, including capital allocation uses, future dividends, debt management and share repurchases, are forward-looking statements. An annualized dividend has not been declared by the Board of Directors.
Net cash balance is Cash and cash equivalents less Debt and Lease and other financing obligations as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Net cash balance will change based on Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations, Additions to property, plant and mine development, dividends paid to common shareholders, repayment of debt principal, and other investing and financing activities. Refer to the Net Debt reconciliation below in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures schedules in this release.
Excess Cash is defined as cash available from operations (including Exploration, G&A, etc.) after funding balance sheet obligations (including debt principal repayments and reclamation spend) and capital expenditures, paying the dividend, and achieving the net cash target.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Production and Financial Summary
Attributable gold production increased 2 percent to 1,453 thousand ounces compared to the prior quarter, driven by the addition of new, low-cost ounces at Ahafo North, higher grade at Tanami and Merian, and higher production from the non-managed joint venture at Nevada Gold Mines. These increases were partially offset by lower production due to planned mine sequencing at Peñasquito, Ahafo South, Yanacocha, Brucejack and Cadia. Consolidated gold sales were 1,378 thousand ounces for the quarter.
Copper production decreased 17 percent to 29 thousand tonnes compared to the prior quarter, driven by lower grade at Cadia and Boddington. Silver production remained steady at 7 million ounces compared to the prior quarter. Lead production decreased 12 percent to 23 thousand tonnes compared to the prior quarter, driven by lower grade at Peñasquito. Zinc production decreased 22 percent to 46 thousand tonnes compared to the prior quarter, driven by lower grade at Peñasquito.
Average realized gold price was $4,216 per ounce, an increase of $677 per ounce over the prior quarter. Average realized gold price includes $4,173 per ounce of gross price received, a favorable impact of $48 per ounce mark-to-market on provisionally-priced sales and reductions of $5 per ounce for treatment and refining charges.
Costs Applicable to Sales (CAS) allocated to gold totaled $1.6 billion for the quarter, with an additional $421 million allocated to co-product metals. Gold By-Product CAS per ounce was $738 for the quarter. Gold Co-Product CAS per ounce of $1,166 was slightly lower than the prior quarter, as Newmont's continued focus on cost discipline and productivity offset higher royalties, production taxes and costs from profit-sharing agreements associated with a stronger gold price environment.
Gold By-Product AISC per ounce was $1,302 for the quarter. Gold Co-Product All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) per ounce increased slightly to $1,620 compared to the prior quarter. Building from CAS per ounce, the increase was driven by higher sustaining capital spend as planned.
NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 3
Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders was $1,301 million or $1.19 per diluted share, a decrease of $531 million from the prior quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by an increase in income and mining tax expense of $1.3 billion compared to the prior quarter driven by a higher gold price environment, as well as the recognition of additional income taxes for the remaining undistributed foreign earnings in Papua New Guinea of $384 million and in Ghana of $165 million, as it was determined excess cash flow could not be remitted on a tax free basis for the foreseeable future. In addition, in the fourth quarter, impairment charges of $779 million were recognized primarily related to the decision to indefinitely defer the Yanacocha Sulfides project, and Newmont recognized a loss on divestments of $8 million compared to a gain of $99 million in the prior quarter. These decreases were partially offset by higher revenues due to higher realized prices for all metals and a net reduction of the total Newmont reclamation and remediation liability by $137 million, primarily related to an adjustment at Yanacocha as a result of updated cost estimates.
Adjusted net income for the quarter was $2.8 billion or $2.52 per diluted share compared to $1.9 billion or $1.71 per diluted share in the prior quarter. Primary adjustments to fourth quarter net income include impairment charges of $779 million primarily related to the decision to indefinitely defer the Yanacocha Sulfides project, a net reduction of the total Newmont reclamation and remediation liability of $137 million, primarily related to Yanacocha, a net gain in the value of investments and options of $124 million and restructuring and severance costs of $75 million.
Consolidated cash from operations before working capital increased 38 percent from the prior quarter to $3.6 billion, primarily due to higher revenue from a higher realized gold price and higher production.
Consolidated net cash from operating activities increased 58 percent from the prior quarter to $3.6 billion, primarily due to a favorable working capital benefit of $61 million. This working capital movement was primarily driven by an accrual for future tax payments of $512 million and an accrual of other liabilities of $219 million, primarily related to severance and workers participation payments. These favorable working capital adjustments were partially offset by the continued cash spend for previously accrued reclamation activities of $276 million primarily related to the ongoing construction of the Yanacocha water treatment plants, as well as an increase in accounts receivable of $167 million from the timing of cash collections, and a build in inventory and stockpiles of $112 million.
Income and mining cash tax paid increased 29 percent from the prior quarter to $757 million due to the higher gold price environment.
Free Cash Flow increased 79 percent from the prior quarter to $2.8 billion, primarily due to higher revenues as a result of higher realized prices for all metals and an increase in net cash provided by operating activities as a result of a favorable working capital benefit in the current quarter compared to an unfavorable working capital impact in the prior quarter, partially offset by higher capital investment.
Balance sheet and liquidity remained strong in the fourth quarter, ending the year with $7.6 billion of cash and cash equivalents, with approximately $11.6 billion of total liquidity; ended the year in a net cash position of $2.1 billion.
Non-Managed Joint Venture and Equity Method Investments
Nevada Gold Mines (NGM) attributable gold production increased 17 percent to 293 thousand ounces compared to the prior quarter, with a 1 percent increase in CAS per ounce to $1,258. AISC per ounce remained largely in line with the prior quarter at $1,508.
Pueblo Viejo (PV) attributable gold production decreased 4 percent to 69 thousand ounces compared to the prior quarter. Cash distributions received from the Company's equity method investment in Pueblo Viejo totaled $80 million for the fourth quarter and $210 million for the full year. No capital contributions were made during the quarter related to the expansion project at Pueblo Viejo; contributions totaled $33 million for the full year.
Fruta del Norte attributable gold production is reported on a quarter lag. Production reported in the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased 9 percent to 40 thousand ounces compared to the prior quarter. Cash distributions received from the Company's equity method investment in Fruta del Norte totaled $62 million for the fourth quarter and $212 million for the full year.
Attributable gold production includes ounces from the Company's equity method investments in Pueblo Viejo (40%) and in Lundin Gold (32%).

NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 4
2026 Guidance Expectations (+/-5%)
Newmont is continuing to provide high-confidence, one-year guidance for 2026 within a range of plus or minus 5 percent, demonstrating the ability to continue to deliver from its unrivaled portfolio of world-class operations and projects. Newmont’s Non-Managed Portfolio includes attributable production, cost and capital metrics from the proportional share of the Company’s interest in the Nevada Gold Mines Joint Venture, while attributable production only is included from the Company’s equity interest in Pueblo Viejo and Lundin Gold (Fruta del Norte).
In 2026, Newmont is providing guidance for gold unit cost metrics on a by-product basis. Under this approach, revenue from co-product metals (copper, silver, lead, and zinc) produced is treated as a reduction to cost for the purposes of calculating unit costs (CAS per ounce and AISC per ounce). This method will better reflect the cost of gold production for Newmont's world-class polymetallic gold mines.
Please see the cautionary statement and footnotes for additional information.

For comparability, Gold Co-Product AISC for the Total Portfolio reconciles to approximately $1,935 per ounce
As previously indicated on the third quarter 2025 earnings call, Newmont expects attributable gold production from its managed portfolio to be largely driven by planned mine sequencing at its large long-life assets. New, low cost ounces from the newly commissioned Ahafo North mine are expected to replace lower production from Ahafo South, as mining in the Subika open pit concluded as planned in 2025. Gold production at Peñasquito is expected to decrease as the site transitions into the next scheduled phase of mining at the Peñasco pit. In addition, lower gold production is expected from Cadia during the transition to the next panel cave. Newmont's 2026 guidance also incorporates lower than expected production from Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo as indicated by the joint venture managing partner.
Notably, Newmont continues to focus on leach production at Yanacocha, and has identified a highly capital-efficient plan to leverage current infrastructure to continue mining operations at the site through 2026 and into 2027, adding additional low-cost ounces to Newmont's production profile in early 2027, with further upside potential.
Looking ahead, Newmont's longer-term production growth profile is supported by several clear and executable drivers including the continued ramp-up of Ahafo North delivering new, low-cost ounces, the completion of the Boddington stripping campaign in 2026, enabling access to higher gold and copper grades beginning in 2027, the completion of Tanami Expansion 2 in the second half of 2027, the ongoing development of the Cadia panel caves, and access to additional low-cost ounces from Lihir following the completion of the Nearshore Barrier. These drivers will position Newmont to achieve its longer-term outlook of approximately 6 million ounces of gold and 150 thousand tonnes of copper annually.
NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 5
Unit costs in 2026 are expected to increase from 2025, largely as a function of lower gold production, lower production of copper, lead and zinc, and a higher expected gold price resulting in higher royalties and production taxes. Direct costs at managed operations are expected to be largely stable year over year as a result of Newmont's cost and productivity initiatives in 2025. Gold by-product CAS of $1,055 per ounce and gold by-product AISC of $1,680 per ounce include the estimated impact from lower sales volumes due to planned mine sequencing, a higher gold price assumption of $4,500 per ounce resulting in higher royalties and production taxes, and changes in inventory due to higher stockpile processing at Peñasquito and Yanacocha and a lower build of stockpiles at Lihir. AISC per ounce is also expected to be higher due to the deferral of $150 million of sustaining capital from 2025 into 2026, partially offset by lower expected G&A expense.
CAPITAL GUIDANCE
| Guidance Metric (+/-5%) | 2026E |
| Sustaining Capital ($M) |

| Non-Managed Portfolio | $240 |
| Total Newmont Development Capital | $1,400 |
| Capitalized Interest ($M) | $175 |
Sustaining capital is presented on an attributable basis.
Capital guidance excludes amounts attributable to the Pueblo Viejo joint venture.
Sustaining capital is expected to be approximately $1.95 billion in 2026 as key investments are made in tailings management initiatives, water and infrastructure projects, equipment, and ongoing mine development to enhance the integrity and longevity of Newmont's portfolio. At Boddington, this includes continued progress on expanding tailings capacity to support future mine life. At Tanami, Newmont is advancing work on Ventilation Raise 9 to add intake‑ventilation capacity and supporting mine‑life extension at depth, with completion expected in 2026. At Cadia, Newmont continues to progress the tailings work to support its long mine life, including advancing the Stage 7 tailings wall lift at the Southern Tailings Facility, to support continued operations beyond the current facilities. In addition, sustaining capital guidance includes spend related to Newmont’s ownership interest in Nevada Gold Mines.
In 2026 and the years that follow there is a clear opportunity to enhance the longevity of Newmont's portfolio through targeted investments in critical infrastructure including tailings solutions at Cadia and Boddington. These investments require elevated sustaining capital spend over the next few years in order to support production capacity and position the operations to produce well into the middle of the century.
Development capital is expected to be approximately $1.40 billion in 2026, as Newmont focuses on disciplined reinvestment in its most profitable near-term projects. 2026 guidance primarily includes spend for Tanami Expansion 2 and the Cadia Panel Caves, as well as the important investments in mine life extensions at Lihir and Cerro Negro. With the completion and commissioning of Ahafo North, the next major project under review is the Red Chris Block cave project, which is progressing toward an investment decision in the second half of 2026. In addition, development capital guidance includes approximately $100 million of increased spend related to Newmont’s ownership interest in Nevada Gold Mines. Refer to the 'Disciplined Reinvestment in Organic Project Pipeline' section below for additional details.
Capitalized interest is calculated for major projects that are internally funded and capitalized into the project. Intercompany debt is used to fund major capital projects, and as such, a portion of the interest cost related to each project is capitalized. Capitalized interest is expected to be $175 million in 2026, with approximately two-thirds related to development capital and one-third related to sustaining capital.

NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 6
Attributable gold production in 2026 is expected to be approximately 52 percent weighted to the second half of the year. The increase in production in the second half of the year is expected to be driven by Boddington, Tanami, Lihir, Cerro Negro and Peñasquito while Cadia, Ahafo South and Merian are expecting to produce higher ounces from higher grades in the first half of the year. Ahafo North achieved commercial production in the fourth quarter of 2025 and production is expected to increase sequentially throughout 2026.
Notably, Boddington has repaired the critical water infrastructure damaged by bushfires in December 2025. Through February, the site has been limiting processing activities due to water availability, but has now recommenced at full levels. As a result, production at Boddington is expected to be the lowest in the first quarter of 2026, with an expected impact of approximately 60 thousand ounces.
Sustaining capital spend in 2026 is expected to be approximately 52 percent weighted to the second half of the year. The second and third quarters are expected to be higher due to warmer weather surface work at Red Chris and Brucejack in Northern Canada and higher tailings spend at Cadia, Boddington and Tanami in Australia. Development capital spend is expected to be weighted 55 percent to the second half of 2026 driven primarily by the start of significant work at the Lihir Nearshore Barrier starting in the second half of 2026.

| Copper Production (ktonne) | 102 |
| Silver Production (Moz) | 32 |
| Lead Production (ktonne) | 90 |
| Zinc Production (ktonne) | 220 |
In 2026, copper production is expected to decline due to lower grade ore at Cadia. Peñasquito is expected to increase silver production by more than 10 percent, while lead and zinc production is expected to decrease as the site processes lower grade ore. Refer to the '2026 Production and Cost Guidance by Site' section below for additional details.
EXPLORATION AND ADVANCED PROJECTS GUIDANCE
| Guidance Metric (+/-5%) | 2026E |
| Exploration & Advanced Projects ($M) | $525 |
In 2026, Newmont plans to increase its investment in exploration and advanced projects to approximately $525 million, focusing on extending mine life at existing operations while continuing to develop reserves and resources. This includes an estimated $240 million dollars in exploration expense to progress organic growth around existing operations, including Merian open pit extensions, Cerro Negro life extensions, Brucejack growth testing, and the Apensu and Subika Underground at Ahafo South, as well as advancing greenfield projects. Additionally, Newmont expects to allocate approximately $285 million to advanced project spending to support studies on its organic project pipeline.

NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 7
General and administrative costs are expected to be $375 million in 2026, which is approximately $100 million lower than the initial 2025 guidance, demonstrating the benefits of Newmont's cost reduction efforts. Interest expense is expected to decrease to approximately $175 million as a result of the debt reduction efforts to date, along with higher capitalized interest. Reclamation and remediation expense is expected to increase to $385 million due to continued accretion of Newmont's closure liabilities. The adjusted tax rate is expected to remain stable at approximately 33 percent using a $4,500 per ounce gold price assumption.
ASSUMPTIONS AND SENSITIVITIES
| Assumption | Change (+/-) | Revenue and Cost Impact ($M) |
|---|
| Gold ($/oz) | $4,500 | $100 | $505 |
| Australian Dollar | $0.70 | $0.05 | $100 |
| Canadian Dollar | $0.75 | $0.05 | $30 |
| Mexican Peso | $17.00 | $1.00 | $25 |
| Oil ($/bbl Brent) | $70.00 | $10.00 | $60 |
| Copper ($/tonne) | $11,023 | $550 | $60 |
| Silver ($/oz) | $60.00 | $1.00 | $25 |
| Lead ($/tonne) | $1,894 | $220 | $20 |
| Zinc ($/tonne) | $2,866 | $220 | $50 |
Impacts are presented on a pretax basis.
Co-product metal pricing assumptions in imperial units equate to Copper ($5.00/lb.), Lead ($0.90/lb.) and Zinc ($1.30/lb.).
Silver revenue impact relates only to co-product silver revenue from Peñasquito, including the impact of the silver stream agreement.
Excluded from the sensitivity above is a royalty, production tax, and workers participation impact of approximately $6 per ounce for every $100 per ounce change in gold price.
Ghana Stability Agreement
On December 31, 2025, Newmont’s 10-year investment stability agreement expired. As a result, revenues from the combined Ahafo South and Ahafo North operations are now subject to the 3 percent Growth and Sustainability Levy, and the applicable corporate income tax rate on profits has increased by 2.5 percent to 35 percent. In addition, cash profits repatriated to Newmont are now subject to an 8 percent withholding tax, in addition to the existing one-ninth carried interest royalty. The timing of when Newmont repatriates cash may drive periodic increases in reported costs due to the payment of these taxes.
The Government of Ghana has also proposed a sliding royalty rate of 5 percent to 12 percent dependent on gold price. If enacted, this royalty change would have a potential impact to Gold AISC of approximately $310 per ounce for our Ghana operations, with a resulting impact for total Newmont of approximately $50 per ounce. The impact of the sliding scale royalty is not included in 2026 guidance. Newmont continues to engage constructively with the Government of Ghana on matters related to taxes, royalties and the broader fiscal environment, with the objective of supporting its long‑standing partnership and maintaining Ghana as a priority destination for future investment.
Committed to Concurrent Reclamation
As mines operate for a finite period, careful closure planning is crucial to address the diverse social, economic, environmental and regulatory impacts associated with the end of mining operations. Newmont’s global Closure Strategy integrates closure planning throughout each operation’s lifespan, aiming to create enduring positive and sustainable legacies that last long after mining ceases. Newmont continues to recognize reclamation and remediation expense throughout the year. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, Newmont spent $803 million on reclamation activities, including $552 million on the construction of water treatment plants at Yanacocha. Newmont anticipates similar spend in 2026, with approximately $850 million for the total portfolio and approximately $550 million on the Yanacocha water treatment plants. Total estimated spend on the Yanacocha water treatment plants is approximately $1.8 billion, with $769 million spent to date. Once complete, total reclamation spend is expected to return to more normal levels of $300 to $400 million in 2028.

Disciplined Reinvestment in Organic Project Pipeline
Newmont's portfolio includes the deepest organic project pipeline in the industry, expected to add new, low-cost ounces and grow free cash flow on a per share basis. Newmont's 2026 guidance includes current development capital costs and production related to the key projects in execution at Tanami Expansion 2 and Cadia Panel Caves, as well as the mine life extensions at Lihir and Cerro Negro.
Major Projects
- Tanami Expansion 2 (Australia) is expected to secure Tanami’s future as a long-life, low-cost producer by extending mine life beyond 2040 through the addition of a 1,460 meter hoisting shaft and supporting infrastructure to process 3.3 million tonnes per year and provide a platform for future growth. The expansion is expected to increase average annual gold production and improve efficiency for the first five years (2028 - 2032). The project is expected to achieve commercial production in the second half of 2027, and total capital costs are estimated to be between $1.7 and $1.8 billion. Development costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $1.3 billion, of which $284 million related to 2025.
- Cadia Panel Caves (Australia) includes two panel caves expected to extend the mine life well beyond 2030.
- Panel Cave 2-3 (PC2-3) is expected to produce 1.0 million ounces of gold and more than 400 thousand tonnes of copper over its ten-year cave life (2024 - 2034). During peak production (2027 - 2032), PC2-3 is expected to ramp up to deliver between 100 and 150 thousand ounces of gold per year, and between 40 and 60 thousand tonnes of copper per year. First ore was delivered during the fourth quarter of 2023 and cave establishment was achieved during the third quarter of 2024. Total capital costs for PC2-3 are estimated to be between $1.0 and $1.2 billion, which includes more than $900 million spent by Newcrest prior to the acquisition by Newmont in November 2023. Development capital spend by Newmont is estimated to be between $150 to $250 million and will continue until the last drawbell is fired, expected to be in the second half of 2026. Development capital invested (excluding capitalized interest) since acquisition is $104 million, of which $49 million related to 2025.
- Panel Cave 1-2 (PC1-2) is expected to produce 4.0 million ounces of gold and more than 700 thousand tonnes of copper over its fifteen-year cave life (2027 - 2042). During peak production (2030 - 2040), PC1-2 is expected to ramp up to deliver between 275 and 325 thousand ounces of gold per year, and between 35 and 55 thousand tonnes of copper per year. Newmont successfully fired the first drawbell in December 2025, marking the start of the next critical phase of cave establishment, currently expected in 2027. Total capital costs for PC1-2 are estimated to be between $1.0 and $1.2 billion. Development capital spend by Newmont following the acquisition of Newcrest in November 2023 is expected to be $900 million to $1.0 billion, and will continue until the last drawbell is fired, expected to be completed in 2029. Development capital invested (excluding capitalized interest) since acquisition is $412 million, of which $219 million related to 2025.
Mine Life Extensions
- Lihir Nearshore Barrier (Papua New Guinea) unlocks access to mining additional phases of the Kapit ore body through the construction of a water seepage barrier, enabling production of over 5 million ounces of gold, extending mine life beyond 2040. Development capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $500 and $550 million and continue until expected completion in 2028.
- Cerro Negro District Expansion 1 (Argentina) includes the simultaneous development of the Marianas and Eastern districts to add approximately 3.5 million ounces of gold and extend the mine life of Cerro Negro beyond 2038. The project is expected to improve production and provides a platform for further exploration and future growth through additional expansions. After a one-year pause to reassess capital allocation priorities within the broader portfolio and enable safety and productivity improvements at the site, Cerro Negro has restarted work on these underground mine life extension initiatives. Development capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $550 and $600 million. Development costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $171 million.
Newmont is carefully assessing its next wave of opportunities from its robust organic project pipeline, ensuring that the most promising projects are advanced at the right time and in the most capital-efficient manner. Newmont is currently advancing the feasibility study, permitting activities, and some underground development work to support the block cave project at Red Chris, with the feasibility study expected to be completed in the second half of 2026 followed by a full funds investment decision.
PC2-3 and PC1-2 are subsets of Cadia’s total Mineral Reserves. For the total Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources at Cadia for the year ended December 31, 2025, please refer to Newmont’s 10-K filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026. Project estimates remain subject to change based upon uncertainties, including future market conditions, macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, changes in interest rates, inflation, commodities and raw materials prices, supply chain disruptions, labor markets, engineering and mine plan assumptions, future funding decisions, consideration of strategic capital allocation, and other factors, which may impact estimated capital expenditures, AISC, and timing of projects. Please see the cautionary statement at the end of this release for additional information regarding forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Unless otherwise noted, we present the non-GAAP financial measures of our continuing operations in the tables below. For additional information regarding our discontinued operations, refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Adjusted Net Income (loss)
Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) allows investors and analysts to understand the results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the sale of products, by excluding certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. Adjustments to continuing operations are presented before tax and net of our partners’ noncontrolling interests, when applicable. The tax effect of adjustments is presented in the Tax effect of adjustments line and is calculated using the applicable tax rate. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted net income (loss) are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted net income (loss) as follows:

NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 21
Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization and Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization
Management uses Earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and EBITDA adjusted for non-core or certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net income (loss), operating income (loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP, and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Although Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted EBITDA are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as follows:

Net Debt
Management uses Net debt to measure the Company’s liquidity and financial position. Net debt is calculated as Debt and Lease and other financing obligations less Cash and cash equivalents, as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash and cash equivalents are subtracted from Debt and Lease and other financing obligations as these could be used to reduce the Company's debt obligations. The Company believes that the use of Net debt provides investors and other stakeholders with a meaningful measure of financial flexibility and balance sheet strength, and is also a key metric used in the Company’s debt covenant calculations. The Company has also presented Net debt excluding Lease and other financing obligations to provide a supplemental view of evaluating the financial flexibility and strength of the Company's balance sheet. Net debt is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate this measure differently.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Debt and Lease and other financing obligations, which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measures most directly comparable to Net debt.
| At December 31, 2025 | At December 31, 2024 |

| Add: Lease and other financing obligations | 474 | 496 |
| Net debt (cash) | $(2,058) | $5,308 |
During the first quarter of 2024, certain non-core assets were determined to meet the criteria for assets held for sale. As a result, the related Cash and cash equivalents was reclassified to Assets held for sale. Refer to Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio
Management uses net debt to Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance, including our ability to generate earnings sufficient to service our debt. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA represents the ratio of the Company’s debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net income (loss), operating income (loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Although Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our calculation of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA measure is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The Company believes that net debt to Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management’s determination of the components of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA is evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted EBITDA as follows:

Free Cash Flow
Management uses Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Free Cash Flow is Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of discontinued operations less Additions to property, plant and mine development as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company’s performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company’s calculation of Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.
The presentation of non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. The Company’s definition of Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Free Cash Flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow, as well as information regarding Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities and Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities includes Additions to property, plant and mine development, which is included in the Company’s computation of Free Cash Flow.
All-In Sustaining Costs
Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost applicable to sales, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop, and sustain production. Therefore, Newmont calculates All-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) based on the definition published by the World Gold Council. The World Gold Council is a market development organization for the gold industry comprised of and funded by gold mining companies around the world and is a regulatory organization.
AISC is a metric that expands on GAAP measures, such as cost applicable to sales, to provide visibility into the economics of our mining operations related to expenditures, operating performance, and the ability to generate cash flow from our continuing operations. We believe that AISC is a non-GAAP measure that provides additional information to management, investors and others that aids in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other producers and provides investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with production.
AISC amounts are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks such as in IFRS, or by reflecting the benefit from selling non-gold metals as a reduction to AISC. Differences may also arise related to definitional differences of sustaining versus development (i.e. non-sustaining) activities based upon each company’s internal policies.
The following disclosure provides information regarding the adjustments made in determining the AISC measure:
Costs applicable to sales. Includes all direct and indirect costs related to current production incurred to execute the current mine plan. We exclude certain exceptional or unusual amounts from cost applicable to sales, such as significant revisions to recovery amounts. Cost applicable to sales includes by-product credits from certain metals obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. Cost applicable to sales is accounted for on an accrual basis and excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation, which is consistent with our presentation of cost applicable to sales on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In determining gold AISC, only the cost applicable to sales associated with producing and selling an ounce of gold is included in the measure. Therefore, the amount of cost applicable to sales included in gold AISC is derived from the cost applicable to sales presented in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations less the amount of cost applicable to sales attributable to the production of other metals. The other metals' cost applicable to sales at those mine sites is disclosed in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The allocation of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals is based upon the relative sales value, determined using gold equivalent ounces ("GEO") pricing, of gold and other metals produced during the period.
Reclamation costs. Includes accretion expense related to reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the related ARC for the Company’s operating properties. Accretion related to the reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the ARC assets for reclamation does not reflect annual cash outflows but are calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accretion and amortization reflect the periodic costs of reclamation associated with current production and are therefore included in the measure. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals.
Advanced projects, research and development and exploration. Includes incurred expenses related to projects that are designed to sustain current production and exploration. We note that as current resources are depleted, exploration and advanced projects are necessary for us to replace the depleting reserves or enhance the recovery and processing of the current reserves to sustain
NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 25 production at existing operations. As these costs relate to sustaining our production, and are considered a continuing cost of a mining company, these costs are included in the AISC measure. These costs are derived from the Advanced projects, research and development and Exploration amounts presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations less incurred expenses related to the development of new operations, or related to major projects at existing operations where these projects will materially benefit the operation in the future. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals. We also allocate these costs incurred at Corporate and Other using the proportion of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals.
General and administrative. Includes costs related to administrative tasks not directly related to current production, but rather related to supporting our corporate structure and fulfilling our obligations to operate as a public company. Including these expenses in the AISC metric provides visibility of the impact that general and administrative activities have on current operations and profitability on a per ounce basis. We allocate these costs to gold and other metals at Corporate and Other using the proportion of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals.
Other expense, net. Excludes certain exceptional or unusual expenses, such as restructuring, as these are not indicative to sustaining our current operations. Furthermore, this adjustment to Other expense, net is also consistent with the nature of the adjustments made to Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders as disclosed in the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted net income (loss). The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals.
Treatment and refining costs. Includes costs paid to smelters for treatment and refining of our concentrates to produce the salable metal. These costs are presented net as a reduction of Sales on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals.
Sustaining capital and lease related costs. We determined sustaining capital and lease related costs as those capital expenditures and lease payments that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. We determined development (i.e. non-sustaining) capital expenditures and lease payments to be those payments used to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations where those projects will materially benefit the operation and are excluded from the calculation of AISC. The classification of sustaining and development capital projects and leases is based on a systematic review of our project portfolio in light of the nature of each project. Sustaining capital and lease related costs are relevant to the AISC metric as these are needed to maintain the Company’s current operations and provide improved transparency related to our ability to finance these expenditures from current operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals. We also allocate these costs incurred at Corporate and Other using the proportion of cost applicable to sales between gold and other metals.
By-product metrics. Copper, silver, lead, zinc, and molybdenum are by-products often obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. In our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements, the value of these by-products is recorded as a credit to our CAS and the value of the primary ore is recorded as Sales. In certain instances, copper, silver, lead, and zinc are co-products, or a significant resource in the primary ore-body, and the revenue is recorded as Sales in our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements.
Gold by-product metrics are non-GAAP financial measures that serve as a basis for comparing the Company’s performance with certain competitors. As Newmont’s operations are primarily focused on gold production, “Gold by-product metrics” were developed to allow investors to view Sales, CAS per ounce and AISC per ounce calculations that classify all copper, silver, lead, zinc, and molybdenum production as a by-product, even when copper, silver, lead or zinc is a significant resource in the primary ore-body. These metrics are calculated by subtracting copper, silver, lead, and zinc sales recognized from Sales and including these amounts as offsets to CAS.
Gold by-product metrics are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. These metrics are intended to provide supplemental information only, do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks.

Gold by-product metrics
Copper, silver, lead, zinc, and molybdenum are by-products often obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. In our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements, the value of these by-products is recorded as a credit to our CAS and the value of the primary ore is recorded as Sales. In certain instances, copper, silver, lead, and zinc are co-products, or a significant resource in the primary ore-body, and the revenue is recorded as Sales in our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements.
Gold by-product metrics are non-GAAP financial measures that serve as a basis for comparing the Company’s performance with certain competitors. As Newmont’s operations are primarily focused on gold production, “Gold by-product metrics” were developed to allow investors to view Sales, CAS per ounce and AISC per ounce calculations that classify all copper, silver, lead, zinc, and molybdenum production as a by-product, even when copper, silver, lead or zinc is a significant resource in the primary ore-body. These metrics are calculated by subtracting copper, silver, lead, and zinc sales recognized from Sales and including these amounts as offsets to CAS.
Gold by-product metrics are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. These metrics are intended to provide supplemental information only, do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks.
The following reconciles these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

The reconciliation is provided for illustrative purposes in order to better describe management’s estimates of the components of the calculation. Estimates for each component of the forward-looking All-in sustaining costs per ounce are independently calculated and, as a result, the total All-in sustaining costs and the All-in sustaining costs per ounce may not sum to the component ranges. While a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure has been provided for the 2026 AISC Gold Guidance on a consolidated basis, a reconciliation has not been provided on an individual site or project basis in reliance on Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K because such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts.
All values are presented on a consolidated basis for Newmont.
Includes stockpile and leach pad inventory adjustments.

Net average realized price per ounce/pound
Average realized price per ounce/pound are non-GAAP financial measures. The measures are calculated by dividing the net consolidated gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc sales by the consolidated gold ounces, copper pounds, silver ounces, lead pounds, and zinc pounds sold, respectively. These measures are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Average realized price per ounce/pound statistics are intended to provide additional information only, do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements, Including Guidance Assumptions, and Notes:
Forward-looking statements notice
This news release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbor created by such sections and other applicable laws. Where a forward-looking statement expresses or implies an expectation or belief as to future events or results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed, projected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition; and often contain words such as “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “estimate,” “expect,” “believe,” "pending" or “potential.” Forward-looking statements in this news release may include, without limitation, (i) estimates of future production and sales, including production outlook and average future production; (ii) estimates of future costs applicable to sales and all-in sustaining costs; (iii) estimates of future capital expenditures, including development and sustaining capital; (iv) expectations regarding project development, including, without limitation, Tanami Expansion 2, Cadia Panel Caves, Ahafo North, Red Chris Block Cave, Nearshore Barrier at Lihir, or the Cerro Negro Expansion project, including with respect to timeline, mine life, production, and capital costs; (v) expectations regarding share and debt repurchases; (vi) estimates of future cost reductions, synergies, including pre-tax synergies, savings and efficiencies, productivity improvements, and future cash flow enhancements, (vii) expectations regarding Newmont’s core portfolio; (viii) expectations regarding future investments or divestitures; (ix) expectations regarding free cash flow and returns to stockholders, including with respect to future dividends and future share repurchases; (x) expectations regarding exploration, including timeline, growth potential, opportunities and costs, including without limitation with respect to Brucejack and Ahafo South, and future reserve and resource development; and (xi) other financial and operating outlook, including, without limitation, 2026 Guidance and other future operating, reclamation, remediation and financial metrics. Estimates or expectations of future events or results are based upon certain assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect. Such assumptions, include, but are not limited to: (i) there being no significant change to current geotechnical, metallurgical, hydrological and other physical conditions; (ii) permitting, development, operations and expansion of operations and projects being consistent with current expectations and mine plans, including, without limitation, receipt of export approvals; (iii) political developments in any jurisdiction in which the Company operates being consistent with its current expectations; (iv) certain exchange rate assumptions for the Australian dollar to U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar to U.S. dollar, as well as other exchange rates being approximately consistent with current levels; (v) certain price assumptions for gold, copper, silver, zinc, lead and oil; (vi) prices for key supplies; (vii) the accuracy of current mineral reserve, mineral resource and mineralized material estimates; and (viii) other planning assumptions. Uncertainties include those relating to general macroeconomic uncertainty and changing market conditions, changing restrictions on the mining industry in the jurisdictions in which we operate, impacts to supply chain, including price, availability of goods, ability to receive supplies and fuel, and impacts of changes in interest rates. Such uncertainties could result in operating sites being placed into care and maintenance and impact estimates, costs and timing of projects. Uncertainties in geopolitical conditions could impact certain planning assumptions, including, but not limited to commodity and currency prices, costs and supply chain availabilities.
Future dividends beyond the dividend payable on March 26, 2026 to holders of record at the close of business on March 3, 2026 have not yet been approved or declared by the Board of Directors, and an annualized dividend payout or dividend yield has not been declared by the Board. Management’s expectations with respect to future dividends are “forward-looking statements” and are non-binding. The Capital Allocation Framework is provided for illustrative purposes and remains non-binding. The declaration and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be determined based on Newmont’s financial results, balance sheet strength, cash and liquidity requirements, future prospects, gold and commodity prices, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.
Investors are also cautioned that the extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including trading volume, market conditions, legal requirements, business conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be discontinued at any time, and the program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of its common stock or to repurchase the full authorization amount, .
For a more detailed discussion of such risks and other factors that might impact future looking statements, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on, or about, February 19, 2026, under the heading “Risk Factors", and other factors identified in the Company's reports filed with the SEC, available on the SEC website or at www.newmont.com. The Company does not undertake any obligation to release publicly revisions to any “forward-looking statement,” including, without limitation, outlook, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Investors should not assume that any lack of update to a previously issued “forward-looking statement” constitutes a reaffirmation of that statement. Continued reliance on “forward-looking statements” is at investors’ own risk.
Notice Regarding Reserve and Resource:
The reserves stated herein were prepared in compliance with Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K adopted by the SEC and represent the amount of gold, copper, silver, lead, zinc and molybdenum estimated, at December 31, 2025, could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. The term “economically,” as used in this definition, means that profitable extraction or production has been established or analytically demonstrated in at a minimum, a pre-feasibility study to be viable and justifiable under reasonable investment and market assumptions. The term “legally,” as used in this definition, does not imply that all permits needed for mining and processing have been obtained or that other legal issues have been completely resolved. However, for a reserve to exist, Newmont (or our joint venture partners) must have a justifiable expectation, based on applicable laws and regulations, that issuance of permits or resolution of legal issues necessary for mining and processing at a particular deposit will be accomplished in the ordinary course and in a timeframe consistent with Newmont’s (or our joint venture partner’s) current mine plans. Reserves in this presentation are aggregated from the proven and probable classes. The term “Proven reserves” used in the tables of the appendix means reserves for which (a) quantity is estimated from dimensions revealed in outcrops, trenches, workings or drill holes; (b) grade and/or quality are estimated from the results of detailed sampling; and (c) the sites for inspection, sampling and measurements are spaced so closely and the geologic character is sufficiently defined that size, shape, depth and mineral content of reserves are well established. The term “Probable reserves” means reserves for which quantity and grade are estimated from information similar to that used for Proven reserves, but the sites for sampling are farther apart or are otherwise less closely spaced. The degree of assurance, although lower than that for Proven reserves, is high enough to assume continuity between points of observation. Newmont classifies all reserves as Probable on its development projects until a year of production has confirmed all assumptions made in the reserve estimates. Proven and Probable reserves include gold, copper, silver, zinc, lead or molybdenum attributable to Newmont’s ownership or economic interest. Proven and Probable reserves were calculated using cut-off grades. The term “cutoff grade” means the lowest grade of mineralized material considered economic to process. Cut-off grades vary between deposits depending upon prevailing economic conditions, mineability of the deposit, by-products, amenability of the ore to gold, copper, silver, zinc, lead or molybdenum extraction and type of milling or leaching facilities available.
NEWMONT FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025 RESULTS & 2026 GUIDANCE | NEWS RELEASE 41
Estimates of Proven and Probable reserves are subject to considerable uncertainty. Such estimates are, or will be, to a large extent, based on the prices of gold, silver, copper, zinc, lead and molybdenum and interpretations of geologic data obtained from drill holes and other exploration techniques, which data may not necessarily be indicative of future results. If our reserve estimations are required to be revised using significantly lower gold, silver, zinc, copper, lead and molybdenum prices as a result of a decrease in commodity prices, increases in operating costs, reductions in metallurgical recovery or other modifying factors, this could result in material write-downs of our investment in mining properties, goodwill and increased amortization, reclamation and closure charges. Producers use pre-feasibility and feasibility studies for undeveloped ore bodies to derive estimates of capital and operating costs based upon anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the predicted configuration of the ore body, expected recovery rates of metals from the ore, the costs of comparable facilities, the costs of operating and processing equipment and other factors. Actual operating and capital cost and economic returns on projects may differ significantly from original estimates. Further, it may take many years from the initial phases of exploration until commencement of production, during which time, the economic feasibility of production may change.
Estimates of resources are subject to further exploration and development, are subject to additional risks, and no assurance can be given that they will eventually convert to future reserves. Inferred resources, in particular, have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part of all of the Inferred resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. The Company cannot be certain that any part or parts of the resource will ever be converted into reserves. In addition, if the price of gold, silver, copper, zinc, lead or molybdenum declines from recent levels, if production costs increase, grades decline, recovery rates decrease or if applicable laws and regulations are adversely changed, the indicated level of recovery may not be realized or mineral reserves or resources might not be mined or processed profitably. If we determine that certain of our mineral reserves or resources have become uneconomic, this may ultimately lead to a reduction in our aggregate reported mineral reserves and resources. Consequently, if our actual mineral reserves and resources are less than current estimates, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial position may be materially impaired. For additional information see the “Proven and Probable Reserve" and "Measured, Indicated, and Inferred Resource" tables, in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed on or about February 19, 2026 with the SEC.
