____________________________

(1)Attributable gold ounces produced includes 52 and 81 thousand ounces for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 163 and 220 thousand ounces for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the Pueblo Viejo mine, which is 40% owned by Newmont and accounted for as an equity method investment.

(2)Attributable gold ounces sold excludes ounces related to the Pueblo Viejo mine, which is 40% owned by Newmont and accounted for as an equity method investment.

(3)Gold equivalent ounces are calculated as pounds or ounces produced or sold multiplied by the ratio of the other metals’ price to the gold price. In 2023, the Company updated the metal prices utilized for this calculation to align with reserve metal price assumptions; this resulted in fewer calculated gold equivalent ounces - other metals produced and sold of 5 thousand ounces and 5 thousand ounces, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 108 thousand ounces and 100 thousand ounces, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, than would have been calculated based on the pricing used in 2022 for this calculation. Refer to Results of Consolidated Operations within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis for further information.

(4)On June 7, 2023, the Company suspended its operations at Peñasquito due to the Union strike. As a result of the suspended operations, no production occurred during the third quarter of 2023. Sales activity recognized in the third quarter of 2023 is related to adjustments on provisionally priced concentrate sales subject to final settlement. Consequently, price per ounce/pound metrics are not meaningful ("N.M.").

(5)Excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation.

(6)Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures within Part I, Item 2, MD&A.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights (dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

•Newcrest acquisition: On May 14, 2023 (May 15, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Company and Newmont Overseas Holding Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary company listed by shares and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Newmont ("Newmont Sub"), entered into a binding Scheme Implementation Deed (as amended from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”) with Newcrest Mining Limited ("Newcrest") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Newcrest in a stock transaction, by way of an Australian court-approved Scheme of Arrangement (the “Scheme”, and such acquisition, the “Newcrest Transaction”). Under the terms of the Transaction Agreement, Newcrest shareholders will receive 0.400 of a share of Newmont’s common stock (or 0.400 CHESS Depository Interests or 0.400 PETS depository interests, in each case, each one representing a unit of beneficial ownership in Newmont common stock) for each Newcrest common share and a special dividend of $1.10 per share, to be paid by Newcrest prior to the implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. On October 11, 2023 and October 12, 2023 (October 13, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Newmont and Newcrest shareholders approved the Newcrest Transaction, respectively, which was then subsequently approved by the Australian court on October 16, 2023 (October 17, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time). As previously announced, the transaction has received all of the government and regulatory approvals necessary for the transaction to proceed and is expected to be implemented in November 2023.

•Net income: Reported Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders of $157 or $0.20 per diluted share, a decrease of $61 from the prior-year quarter primarily due to a decrease in Sales at Peñasquito as a result of the work stoppage due to a labor strike that began in June 2023, resulting in no sales at Peñasquito in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease is also the result of higher Reclamation and Remediation, partially offset by higher average realized prices for gold and copper and lower Costs applicable to sales.

•Adjusted net income: Reported Adjusted net income of $286 or $0.36 per diluted share, an increase of $0.09 per diluted share from the prior-year quarter (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures within Part I, Item 2, MD&A).

•Adjusted EBITDA: Reported $933 in Adjusted EBITDA, an increase of 10% from the prior-year quarter (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures within Part I, Item 2, MD&A).

•Cash flow: Reported Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations of $2,138, a decrease of 2% from the prior year, and free cash flow of $392 (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures within Part I, Item 2, MD&A).

•Portfolio updates: Declared commercial production at San Marcos, the first of six ore bodies in the Cerro Negro District Expansion 1 project.

•Attributable gold production: Produced 1.3 million attributable ounces of gold and 58 thousand attributable gold equivalent ounces from co-products.

•Financial strength: Ended the quarter with $3.2 billion of consolidated cash and $6.2 billion of total liquidity; declared a dividend of $0.40 per share in October 2023.

NEWMONT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“interim statements”) of Newmont Corporation, a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Newmont,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with Newmont’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed on February 23, 2023 on Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements and, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

Newcrest transaction

On May 14, 2023 (May 15, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Company and Newmont Overseas Holding Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary company listed by shares and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Newmont ("Newmont Sub"), entered into a binding Scheme Implementation Deed (as amended from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”) with Newcrest Mining Limited ("Newcrest") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Newcrest in a stock transaction, by way of an Australian court-approved Scheme of Arrangement (the “Scheme”, and such acquisition, the “Newcrest Transaction”). Under the terms of the Transaction Agreement, Newcrest shareholders will receive 0.400 of a share of Newmont’s common stock (or 0.400 CHESS Depositary Interests or 0.400 PETS depositary interests, in each case, each one representing a unit of beneficial ownership in Newmont common stock) for each Newcrest common share and a special dividend of $1.10 per share, to be paid by Newcrest prior to the implementation of the Newcrest Transaction.

On October 11, 2023 and October 12, 2023 (October 13, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Newmont and Newcrest shareholders approved the Newcrest Transaction, respectively, which was then subsequently approved by the Australian court on October 16, 2023 (October 17, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time). As previously announced, the transaction has received all of the government and regulatory approvals necessary for the transaction to proceed and is expected to be implemented in November 2023.

Noncontrolling interests

Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interest is comprised of income, primarily related to Suriname Gold project C.V. (“Merian”), of $5 and $7 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $17 and $41 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Newmont consolidates Merian through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Newmont Suriname LLC., in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as the primary beneficiary of Merian, which is a variable interest entity.

Yanacocha transaction

In February 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Compañia de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. (“Buenaventura”) 43.65% noncontrolling interest in Yanacocha for $300 cash consideration, certain royalties on any production from other future potential projects, and contingent payments of up to $100 tied to higher metal prices, achieving commercial production at the Yanacocha Sulfides project and resolution on the outstanding Yanacocha tax dispute. Concurrently, the Company sold its 46.94% ownership interest in Minera La Zanja S.R.L. ("La Zanja") for a $45 loss on sale of its equity interest, included in Other income (loss), net. Additionally, in June 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 5% interest held by Sumitomo in exchange for cash consideration of $48, resulting in the Company obtaining 100% ownership interest in Yanacocha.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company continues to experience the impacts from geopolitical and macroeconomic pressures. With the resulting volatile environment, the Company continues to monitor inflationary conditions, the effects of certain countermeasures taken by central banks, and the potential for further supply chain disruptions relating to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as an uncertain and evolving labor market.

These factors could have further potential short- and, possibly, long-term material adverse impacts on the Company including, but not limited to, volatility in commodity prices and the prices for gold and other metals, changes in the equity and debt markets or country specific factors adversely impacting discount rates, significant cost inflation impacts on production, capital and asset retirement costs, logistical challenges, workforce interruptions and financial market disruptions, as well as potential impacts to estimated costs and timing of projects.

The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential impacts of the current and ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic pressures. Depending on the duration and extent of ongoing global developments, these factors could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and could result in material impairment charges to the

(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill.

Refer to Note 18 below for further information on risks and uncertainties that could have a potential impact on the Company as well as Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

In June 2023, the Company announced the deferral of the full-funds investment decision for the Yanacocha Sulfides project in Peru for at least two years to the second half of 2026. The delay of the Yanacocha Sulfides project is intended to focus funds on current operations and other capital commitments while management assesses execution and project options, up to and including transitioning Yanacocha operations into full closure. To the extent that assessment determines that the project is no longer sufficiently profitable or economically feasible under the Company’s internal requirements, it would result in negative modifications to the Company's proven and probable reserves. Additionally, should the Company ultimately decide to forgo the development of Yanacocha Sulfides, the current carrying value of the assets under construction and other long-lived assets of the Yanacocha operations could become impaired and the timing of certain closure activities would be accelerated. As of September 30, 2023, the Yanacocha operations have total long-lived assets of approximately $1,163, inclusive of approximately $822 of assets under construction related to Yanacocha Sulfides. Refer also to the Company's risk factors under the titles "Estimates relating to projects and mine plans of existing operations are uncertain and we may incur higher costs and lower economic returns than estimated” and "Our long-lived assets and goodwill could become impaired, which could have a material non-cash adverse effect on our results of operations” included in Part I of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023, for further information.

Additionally, the Company continues to hold the Conga project in Peru, which we do not currently anticipate developing in the next ten years as we continue to assess Yanacocha Sulfides; accordingly, the Conga project remains in care and maintenance. Should we be unable to develop the Conga project or conclude that future development is not in the best interest of the business, we may consider other alternatives for the project, which may result in a future impairment charge for the remaining assets. The total assets at Conga were $896 at September 30, 2023.

On June 7, 2023, the National Union of Mine and Metal Workers of the Mexican Republic (the "Union") notified the Company of a strike action. In response to the strike notice, the Company suspended operations at Peñasquito. Operations remained suspended throughout the third quarter of 2023. On October 13, 2023, the Company reached a definitive agreement with the Union that also received approval from the Mexican Labor Court. Per the agreement, the Company will pay Peñasquito workers a fixed amount equivalent to approximately 60% of wages for the duration of the strike, and an additional bonus of two months’ wages to be paid out in the second quarter of 2024 if, as a consequence of the strike, the Peñasquito mine reports no profit in 2023. Additionally, as a part of a separate annual negotiation under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, the Company agreed to an annual salary increase of 8% effective as of August 1, 2023, which is in line with the Mexican mining industry wage increases for 2023. Operations at Peñasquito will resume in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. The Company must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information used is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or simply cannot be readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts and disclosures in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Federal Laws

Inflation Reduction Act

In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IRA") into law. The IRA introduced an excise tax on stock repurchases of 1% of the fair market value of stock repurchases net of stock issued during the tax year and a corporate alternative minimum tax (the "Corporate AMT") of 15% on the adjusted financial statement income ("AFSI") of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1 billion over a three-year period. The excise tax on stock repurchases is effective on net stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022 and the Corporate AMT is effective for tax periods beginning in fiscal year 2023. While waiting on pending Department of Treasury regulatory guidance, the Company is continuing to monitor developments. Based upon information known to date, the IRA had no material impact on the Company's current consolidated financial statements and is not expected to have a material impact on future consolidated financial statements, disclosures, or cash flows.

Effects of Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, ASU No. 2020-04 was issued which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden on accounting for contract modifications caused by reference rate reform. In January 2021, ASU No. 2021-01 was

Table of Contents

NEWMONT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

issued which broadened the scope of ASU No. 2020-04 to include certain derivative instruments. In December 2022, ASU No. 2022-06 was issued which deferred the sunset date of ASU No. 2020-04. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2024. The guidance may be adopted over time as reference rate reform activities occur and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company has completed its review of key contracts and does not expect the guidance to have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements or disclosures. The Company will continue to review new contracts to identify references to the LIBOR and implement adequate fallback provisions if not already implemented to mitigate the risks or impacts from the transition.

NOTE 3 SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company regularly reviews its segment reporting for alignment with its strategic goals and operational structure as well as for evaluation of business performance and allocation of resources by Newmont’s Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). In January 2023, Newmont reassessed and revised its operating strategies and the accountabilities of the senior leadership team in light of the continuing volatile and uncertain market conditions. Following these changes, the Company reevaluated its segments to reflect certain changes in the financial information regularly reviewed by the CODM. As a result, the Company determined that its reportable segments were each of its 12 mining operations and its 38.5% interest in Nevada Gold Mines ("NGM"), which is accounted for using the proportionate consolidation method. Segment results for the prior periods have been recast to reflect the change in reportable segments.

In the following tables, Income (loss) before income and mining tax and other items from reportable segments does not reflect general corporate expenses, interest (except project-specific interest) or income and mining taxes. Intercompany revenue and expense amounts have been eliminated within each segment in order to report on the basis that management uses internally for evaluating segment performance. The Company's business activities and operating segments that are not considered reportable, including all equity method investments, are reported in Corporate and Other, which has been provided for reconciliation purposes.

The financial information relating to the Company’s segments is as follows:

The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various domestic and international laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations to protect public health and the environment and believes its operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. Estimated future reclamation and remediation costs are based principally on current legal and regulatory requirements.

____________________________

(1)Cash and cash equivalents include time deposits that have an original maturity of three months or less.

(2)Debt is carried at amortized cost. The outstanding carrying value was $5,575 and $5,571 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Refer to Note 14 for further information. The fair value measurement of debt was based on an independent third-party pricing source.

The following tables set forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant observable and unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets and liabilities at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:


Description	At September 30, 2023		Valuation Technique	Significant Input	Range, Point Estimate or Average
Contingent consideration assets	$	195	Monte Carlo (1)	Discount rate (2)		8.76 - 29.59	%
Contingent consideration liabilities	$	5	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate (2)		5.56 - 7.08	%


Description	At December 31, 2022		Valuation Technique	Significant Input	Range, Point Estimate or Average
Long-lived assets	$	25	Market-based approach	Various (3)		Various (3)
Contingent consideration assets	$	188	Monte Carlo (1)	Discount rate (2)		8.75 - 29.59	%
Contingent consideration liabilities	$	3	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate (2)		5.56 - 7.08	%

____________________________

(1)A Monte Carlo valuation model is used for the fair value measurement of the Batu Hijau contingent consideration asset. All other contingent consideration assets are valued using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow where the significant input is the discount rate.

(2)The weighted average discount rate used to calculate the Company’s contingent consideration assets and liabilities is 11.87% and 6.47%, respectively, at September 30, 2023 and 11.86% and 6.07%, respectively, at December 31, 2022. Various other inputs including, but not limited to, metal prices and production profiles were considered in determining the fair value of the individual contingent consideration assets and liabilities.

(3)At December 31, 2022, the Company recognized an impairment charge on the long-lived assets at CC&V, which resulted in a remaining long-lived asset balance of $25. The impairment was determined using the income approach and included the following significant inputs (i) updated cash flow information from the Company's business and closure plans at December 31, 2022, (ii) a short-term gold price of $1,750, (iii) a long-term gold price of $1,600, (iv) current estimates of reserves, resources, and exploration potential, and (v) a country specific pre-tax discount rate of 6.75%. The Company performed a nonrecurring fair value measurement and estimated the fair value of the remaining asset balance using a market-based approach based on the appraised value in an assumed sale to a third-party market participant.

NOTE 10 DERIVATIVES INSTRUMENTS

Hedging Instruments

In May 2023, the Company entered into C$348 of CAD-denominated and A$648 of AUD-denominated fixed forward contracts to mitigate variability in the USD functional cash flows related to the CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated operating expenditures expected to be incurred between June and December 2023 included in the Company's operating mines located in Canada and Australia, respectively. The fixed forward contracts were transacted for risk management purposes. The Company has designated the CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated fixed forward contracts as foreign currency cash flow hedges against the forecasted CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated operating expenditures, respectively.

In October 2022, the Company entered into A$574 of AUD-denominated fixed forward contracts to mitigate variability in the USD functional cash flows related to the AUD-denominated capital expenditures expected to be incurred in 2023 and 2024 during the construction and development phase of the Tanami Expansion 2 project. The fixed forward contracts were transacted for risk management purposes. The Company has designated the fixed forward contracts as foreign currency cash flow hedges against the forecasted AUD-denominated Tanami Expansion 2 capital expenditures.

To minimize credit risk, the Company only enters into transactions with counterparties that meet certain credit requirements and periodically reviews the creditworthiness of these counterparties. The Company believes that the risk of counterparty default is low and its exposure to credit risk is minimal. The unrealized changes in fair value have been recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are reclassified to income during the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings and is presented in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. If the underlying hedge transaction becomes probable of not occurring, the related amounts will be reclassified to earnings immediately. For the foreign currency cash flow hedges related to the Tanami Expansion 2 project, amounts recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified to earnings through Depreciation and amortization after the project reaches commercial production. For the foreign currency cash flow hedges related to the CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated operating expenditures, amounts recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified to earnings through Costs applicable to sales in the month that the operating expenditures are incurred.

The following table provides the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges:


	At September 30, 2023		At December 31, 2022

Equity method investments

Income (loss) from the Company's equity method investments is recognized in Equity income (loss) of affiliates, which primarily consists of income from the Pueblo Viejo mine of $10 and $26 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $46 and $84 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income from the Pueblo Viejo mine was lower in 2023 compared to 2022 primarily due to lower ore grades processed due to mine sequencing, as well as lower mill throughput and lower mill recovery associated with the commissioning of the mill expansion project.

Pueblo Viejo

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had outstanding shareholder loans to Pueblo Viejo of $403 and $356, with accrued interest of $5 and $8, respectively, included in the Pueblo Viejo equity method investment. Additionally, the Company has an unfunded commitment to Pueblo Viejo in the form of a revolving loan facility ("Revolving Facility"). There were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of September 30, 2023.

The Company purchases its portion (40%) of gold and silver produced from Pueblo Viejo at market price and resells those ounces to third parties. Total payments made to Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchased were $105 and $326 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Total payments made to Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchased were $146 and $413 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. These purchases, net of subsequent sales, are included in Other income (loss), net and the net amount is immaterial. There were no amounts due to or from Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchases as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Maverix Metals, Inc.

In January 2023, Triple Flag acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Maverix, resulting in Newmont holding a 7.5% ownership interest in the combined company. Prior to close, Newmont held 28.5% of Maverix’s outstanding common shares. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company sold all of its common shares in Triple Flag. As a result, a net gain of $36 was recognized in the first quarter of 2023, which is included in Other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

NOTE 18 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

General

Estimated losses from 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 contingency and estimated range of loss, if determinable, is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

Operating Segments

The Company’s operating and reportable segments are identified in Note 3. Except as noted in this paragraph, all of the Company’s commitments and contingencies specifically described herein are included in Corporate and Other. The Yanacocha matters relate to the Yanacocha reportable segment. The Newmont Ghana Gold and Newmont Golden Ridge matters relate to the Ahafo and Akyem reportable segments, respectively.

Environmental Matters

Refer to Note 5 for further information regarding reclamation and remediation. Details about certain significant matters are discussed below.

Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 100% Newmont Owned

In 2015 and further modified in 2017 the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued modifications to water quality standards for designated beneficial uses which modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. These Peruvian regulations allow time for companies to formulate a compliance plan and make any necessary changes to achieve compliance.

In February 2017, Yanacocha submitted a modification to its previously approved compliance achievement plan to the MINEM. The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021. During this interim period, Yanacocha separately submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") modification considering the ongoing operations and the projects to be developed and obtained authorization from MINEM for such projects. This authorization included a deadline for compliance with the modified water quality criteria by January 2024. In May 2022, Yanacocha submitted a proposed modification to this plan requesting an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations in 2027. In June 2023, Yanacocha received approval of its updated compliance plan from MINEM and was granted an extension of time to June 2026 to achieve compliance. The Company has presented a legal recourse requesting the regulatory extension until 2027.

The Company currently operates five water treatment plants at Yanacocha that have been and currently meet all currently applicable water discharge requirements. The Company is conducting detailed studies to better estimate water management and other closure activities that will ensure water quality and quantity discharge requirements, including the modifications promulgated by MINAM, as referenced above, will be met. This also includes performing a comprehensive update to the Yanacocha reclamation plan to address changes in closure activities and estimated closure costs while preserving optionality for potential future projects at Yanacocha. These ongoing studies, which will extend beyond the current year, continue to evaluate and revise assumptions and estimated costs of changes to the reclamation plan. While certain estimated costs remain subject to revision, the Company’s current asset retirement obligation includes plans for the construction and post-closure management of two new water treatment plants and initial consideration of known risks (including the associated risk that these water treatment estimates could change in the future as more work is completed). The ultimate construction costs of the two water treatment plants remain highly uncertain as ongoing study work and assessment of opportunities that incorporates the latest design considerations remain in progress. These and other additional risks and contingencies that are the subject of ongoing studies, including, but not limited to, a comprehensive review of the Company's tailings storage facility management, review of Yanacocha’s water balance and storm water management system, and review of post-closure management costs, could result in future material increases to the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha.

Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company LLC - 100% Newmont Owned

In December 2021, Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company LLC (“CC&V”, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) entered into a Settlement Agreement (“Settlement Agreement”) with the Water Quality Control Division of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (the “Division”) with a mutual objective of resolving issues associated with the new discharge permits issued by the Division in January 2021 for the historic Carlton Tunnel. The Carlton Tunnel was a historic tunnel completed in 1941 with the purpose of draining the southern portion of the mining district, subsequently consolidated by CC&V. CC&V has held discharge permits for the Carlton Tunnel since 1983, but the January 2021 permit updates contained new water quality limits. The Settlement Agreement involves the installation of interim passive water treatment and ongoing monitoring over the next three years, and then more long-term water treatment installed with target compliance by November 2027. In 2022, the Company studied various interim passive water treatment options, reported the study results to the Division, and based on an evaluation of additional semi-passive options that involve the usage of power at the portal, updated the remediation liability to $20. CC&V continues to study alternative long-term remediation plans for water discharged from the Carlton Tunnel, and as such, a compliance extension request was submitted in July 2023 to allow additional time for proper assessment of treatment alternatives. The Company is also working with regulators on the Discharger Specific Variance to identify highest feasible alternative treatment in the context, based on limits such as area topography. Depending on the plans that may ultimately be agreed with the Division, a material adjustment to the remediation liability may be required.

Dawn Mining Company LLC (“Dawn”) - 58.19% Newmont Owned

Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site. Dawn previously leased an open pit uranium mine, currently inactive, on the Spokane Indian Reservation in the State of Washington. The mine site is subject to regulation by agencies of the U.S. Department of Interior (the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Bureau of Land Management), as well as the EPA.

As per the Consent Decree approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington on January 17, 2012, the following actions were required of Newmont, Dawn, the Department of the Interior and the EPA: (i) Newmont and Dawn would design, construct and implement the cleanup plan selected by the EPA in 2006 for the Midnite mine site; (ii) Newmont and Dawn would reimburse the EPA for its past costs associated with overseeing the work; (iii) the Department of the Interior would contribute a lump sum amount toward past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site; (iv) Newmont and Dawn would be

(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

responsible for all future EPA oversight costs and Midnite mine site cleanup costs; and (v) Newmont would post a surety bond for work at the site.

During 2012, the Department of Interior contributed its share of past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site. In 2016, Newmont completed the remedial design process, with the exception of the new WTP design which was awaiting the approval of the new NPDES permit. Subsequently, the new NPDES permit was received in 2017 and the WTP design commenced in 2018. The EPA completed their assessment and approval of the WTP design in 2021 and Newmont has selected contractors for the construction of the new water treatment plant and effluent pipeline. Construction of the effluent pipeline began in 2021, and construction of the new WTP began in 2022.

The Dawn mill site is regulated by the Washington Department of Health (the "WDOH") and is in the process of being closed in accordance with the federal Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act, and associated Washington state regulations. Remediation at the Dawn mill site began in 2013. The Tailing Disposal Area 1-4 reclamation earthworks component was completed during 2017 with the embankment erosion protection completed in the second quarter of 2018. The remaining closure activities consist primarily of finalizing an Alternative Concentration Limit application (the "ACL application") submitted in 2020 to the WDOH to address groundwater issues, and also evaporating the remaining balance of process water at the site. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the WDOH provided comments on the ACL application, which Newmont is evaluating and conducting studies to better understand and respond to the comments provided by the WDOH. These studies and the related comment process will extend beyond the current year and could result in future material increases to the remediation obligation.

The remediation liability for the Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site is approximately $212, assumed 100% by Newmont, at September 30, 2023.

Goldcorp Canada Ltd. - 100% Newmont Owned

Porcupine mine site. The Porcupine complex is comprised of active open pit and underground mining operations as well as inactive, legacy sites from its extensive history of mining gold in and around the city of Timmins, Ontario since the early 1900s. As a result of these primarily historic mining activities, there are mine hazards in the area that could require some form of reclamation. The Company is conducting studies to better catalog, prioritize, and update its existing information of these historical mine hazards, to inform its closure plans and estimated closure costs. These studies will extend beyond the current year and could result in future material increases to the reclamation obligation at Porcupine.

Other Legal Matters

Newmont Corporation, as well as Newmont Canada Corporation, and Newmont Canada FN Holdings ULC – 100% Newmont Owned

Kirkland Lake Gold Inc., which was acquired by Agnico Eagle Mines Limited in 2022 (still referred to herein as “Kirkland” for ease of reference), owns certain mining and mineral rights in northeastern Ontario, Canada, referred to here as the Holt-McDermott property, on which it suspended operations in April 2020. A subsidiary of the Company has a retained royalty obligation (“Holt royalty obligation”) to Royal Gold, Inc. (“Royal Gold”) for production on the Holt-McDermott property. In August 2020, the Company and Kirkland signed a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Kirkland Agreement”). As part of the Kirkland Agreement, the Company purchased an option (the “Holt option”) for $75 from Kirkland for the mining and mineral rights subject to the Holt royalty obligation. The Company has the right to exercise the Holt option and acquire ownership to the mineral interests subject to the Holt royalty obligation in the event Kirkland intends to resume operations and process material subject to the obligation. Kirkland has the right to assume the Company’s Holt royalty obligation at any time, in which case the Holt option would terminate.

On August 16, 2021, International Royalty Corporation (“IRC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Royal Gold, filed an action in the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia against Newmont Corporation, Newmont Canada Corporation, Newmont Canada FN Holdings ULC (collectively "Newmont"), and certain Kirkland defendants (collectively "Kirkland"). IRC alleges the Kirkland Agreement is oppressive to the interests of Royal Gold under the Nova Scotia Companies Act and the Canada Business Corporations Act, and that, by entering into the Kirkland Agreement, Newmont breached its contractual obligations to Royal Gold. IRC seeks declaratory relief, and $350 in alleged royalty payments that it claims Newmont expected to pay under the Holt royalty obligation, but for the Kirkland Agreement. Kirkland filed a motion seeking dismissal of the case against it, which the court granted in October 2022. Newmont submitted its statement of defense on February 27, 2023. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

NWG Investments Inc. v. Fronteer Gold Inc.

In April 2011, Newmont acquired Fronteer Gold Inc. (“Fronteer”).

Fronteer acquired NewWest Gold Corporation (“NewWest Gold”) in September 2007. At the time of that acquisition, NWG Investments Inc. (“NWG”) owned approximately 86% of NewWest Gold and an individual named Jacob Safra owned or controlled 100% of NWG. Prior to its acquisition of NewWest Gold, Fronteer entered into a June 2007 lock-up agreement with NWG providing that, among other things, NWG would support Fronteer’s acquisition of NewWest Gold. At that time, Fronteer owned approximately 47% of Aurora Energy Resources Inc. (“Aurora”), which, among other things, had a uranium exploration project in Labrador, Canada.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

NWG contends that, during the negotiations leading up to the lock-up agreement, Fronteer represented to NWG, among other things, that Aurora would commence uranium mining in Labrador by 2013, that this was a firm date, that Aurora faced no current environmental issues in Labrador and that Aurora’s competitors faced delays in commencing uranium mining. NWG further contends that it entered into the lock-up agreement and agreed to support Fronteer’s acquisition of NewWest Gold in reliance upon these purported representations. On October 11, 2007, less than three weeks after the Fronteer-NewWest Gold transaction closed, a member of the Nunatsiavut Assembly introduced a motion calling for the adoption of a moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. On April 8, 2008, the Nunatsiavut Assembly adopted a three-year moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. NWG contends that Fronteer was aware during the negotiations of the NWG/Fronteer lock-up agreement that the Nunatsiavut Assembly planned on adopting this moratorium and that its adoption would preclude Aurora from commencing uranium mining by 2013, but Fronteer nonetheless fraudulently induced NWG to enter into the lock-up agreement.

On September 24, 2012, NWG served a summons and complaint on the Company, and then amended the complaint to add Newmont Canada Holdings ULC as a defendant. The complaint also named Fronteer Gold Inc. and Mark O’Dea as defendants. The complaint sought rescission of the merger between Fronteer and NewWest Gold and $750 in damages. In August 2013 the Supreme Court of New York, New York County issued an order granting the defendants’ motion to dismiss on forum non conveniens. Subsequently, NWG filed a notice of appeal of the decision and then a notice of dismissal of the appeal on March 24, 2014.

On February 26, 2014, NWG filed a lawsuit in Ontario Superior Court of Justice against Fronteer Gold Inc., Newmont Mining Corporation, Newmont Canada Holdings ULC, Newmont FH B.V. and Mark O’Dea. The Ontario complaint is based upon substantially the same allegations contained in the New York lawsuit with claims for fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation. NWG seeks disgorgement of profits since the close of the NWG deal on September 24, 2007 and damages in the amount of C$1,200. Newmont, along with other defendants, served the plaintiff with its statement of defense on October 17, 2014. Newmont, along with the other defendants, filed a motion to dismiss based on delay on November 29, 2022. On August 22, 2023, the Court granted the motion and dismissed the Ontario complaint for delay. NWG filed an appeal with the Court of Appeal for Ontario on September 21, 2023. Newmont intends to vigorously defend the appeal but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Newmont Ghana Gold Limited and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited - 100% Newmont Owned

On December 24, 2018, two individual plaintiffs, who are members of the Ghana Parliament (“Plaintiffs”), filed a writ to invoke the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Ghana. On January 16, 2019, Plaintiffs filed the Statement of Plaintiff’s Case outlining the details of the Plaintiff’s case and subsequently served Newmont Ghana Gold Limited (“NGGL”) and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited (“NGRL”) along with the other named defendants, the Attorney General of Ghana, the Minerals Commission of Ghana and 33 other mining companies with interests in Ghana. The Plaintiffs allege that under article 268 of the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, the mining company defendants are not entitled to carry out any exploitation of minerals or other natural resources in Ghana, unless their respective transactions, contracts or concessions are ratified or exempted from ratification by the Parliament of Ghana. Newmont’s current mining leases are both ratified by Parliament; NGGL June 13, 2001 mining lease, ratified by Parliament on October 21, 2008, and NGRL January 19, 2010 mining lease; ratified by Parliament on December 3, 2015. The writ alleges that any mineral exploitation prior to Parliamentary ratification is unconstitutional. The Plaintiffs seek several remedies including: (i) a declaration as to the meaning of constitutional language at issue; (ii) an injunction precluding exploitation of minerals for any mining company without prior Parliamentary ratification; (iii) a declaration that all revenue as a result of violation of the Constitution shall be accounted for and recovered via cash equivalent; and (iv) an order that the Attorney General and Minerals Commission submit all un-ratified mining leases, undertakings or contracts to Parliament for ratification. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Newmont Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Newmont,” the “Company,” “our” and “we”). Please see Non-GAAP Financial Measures, below, for the non-GAAP financial measures used in this MD&A by the Company.

This item should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this quarterly report. Additionally, the following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

Overview

Newmont is the world’s leading gold company and is the only gold company included in the S&P 500 Index and the Fortune 500 list of companies. We have been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index-World since 2007 and have adopted the World Gold Council’s Conflict-Free Gold Policy. Since 2015, Newmont has been ranked as the mining and metal sector's top gold miner by the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment. Newmont was ranked the top miner in 3BL Media’s 100 Best Corporate Citizens list which ranks the 1,000 largest publicly traded U.S. companies on ESG transparency and performance since 2020.

We are primarily engaged in the exploration for and acquisition of gold properties, some of which may contain copper, silver, lead, zinc or other metals. We have significant operations and/or assets in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia, and Ghana.

Refer to the discussion of Risk and Uncertainties within Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the Consolidated Financial Results, Results of Consolidated Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources and Non-GAAP Financial Measures sections presented below, for information about the continued impacts from the geopolitical and macroeconomic pressures including recent turmoil in the banking sector, inflation, effects of certain countermeasures taken by central banks, and the potential for further supply chain disruptions relating to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as an uncertain and evolving labor market.

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company announced the deferral of the full-funds investment decision for the Yanacocha Sulfides project in Peru, currently estimated to occur in 2026. With the delay of the Yanacocha Sulfides project, management will focus its efforts on optimizing its allocation of funds to current operations and other capital commitments, while continuing to assess execution and project plan options, up to and including transitioning Yanacocha operations into full closure. Refer to Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

We continue to focus on improving safety and efficiency at our operations, maintaining leading ESG practices, and sustaining our global portfolio of longer-life, lower cost mines to generate the financial flexibility we need to strategically reinvest in the business, strengthen the Company’s investment-grade balance sheet and return cash to shareholders.

On May 14, 2023 (May 15, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Company and Newmont Overseas Holding Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary company listed by shares and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Newmont ("Newmont Sub"), entered into a binding Scheme Implementation Deed (as amended from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”) with Newcrest Mining Limited ("Newcrest") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Newcrest in a stock transaction, by way of an Australian court-approved Scheme of Arrangement (the “Scheme”, and such acquisition, the “Newcrest Transaction”). On October 11, 2023 and October 12, 2023 (October 13, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time), the Newmont and Newcrest shareholders approved the Newcrest Transaction, respectively, which was then subsequently approved by the Australian court on October 16, 2023 (October 17, 2023 Australian Eastern Daylight Time). As previously announced, the transaction has received all of the government and regulatory approvals necessary for the transaction to proceed and is expected to be implemented in November 2023. Refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

In January 2023, the Company reevaluated its segments to reflect certain changes in the financial information regularly reviewed by Newmont’s Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") and determined that its reportable segments were each of its 12 mining operations and its 38.5% interest in Nevada Gold Mines ("NGM"), which is accounted for using the proportionate consolidation method. Segment results for the prior periods have been recast to reflect the change in reportable segments. Refer to Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

In February 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Buenaventura's 43.65% noncontrolling interest in Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. ("Yanacocha") and sold its 46.94% ownership interest in Minera La Zanja S.R.L. ("La Zanja"). Additionally, in June 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 5% interest held by Sumitomo in exchange for cash consideration of $48, resulting in the Company obtaining 100% ownership interest in Yanacocha. Refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details regarding these transactions.

For further information on acquisitions and asset sales impacting the comparability of our results, refer to Notes 1 and 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, respectively.

Consolidated Financial Results

The details of our Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders are set forth below:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Increase (Decrease)
	2023		2022
Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders	$	157	$	218	$	(61)
Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders per common share, diluted	$	0.20	$	0.28	$	(0.08)


	Nine Months Ended September 30,				Increase (Decrease)
	2023		2022
Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders	$	649	$	1,029	$	(380)
Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders per common share, diluted	$	0.82	$	1.30	$	(0.48)

The decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily due to a decrease in Sales at Peñasquito as a result of the work stoppage due to a labor strike that began in June 2023 ("Peñasquito labor strike"), resulting in no sales at Peñasquito in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease is also the result of higher Reclamation and Remediation, partially offset by higher average realized prices for gold and copper and lower Costs applicable to sales. See below for further information on the change in Costs applicable to sales.

The decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily due to a decrease in Sales resulting from lower sales volumes for all metals except copper, largely as a result of (i) the Peñasquito labor strike; (ii) lower production at Akyem to re-sequence the mine plan and temporarily suspend mining in the main pit to make safety improvements and fortify the catch berms above the haul road into the pit; and (iii) lower production at Tanami due to significant rainfall and flooding in the Northern Territory and surrounding areas in early 2023, which resulted in transportation route closures into the mine ("Tanami rainfall event"). As a result of the Tanami rainfall event, processing operations were paused for the majority of February 2023. During this time, mining operations continued, and ore was stockpiled and in late February, transportation routes were reopened, and processing operations were resumed. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company received insurance proceeds, primarily recognized in Other income, net, as a result of this event. Refer to Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Additionally, the decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, is also the result of higher Reclamation and Remediation and higher income tax expense, partially offset by higher average realized prices for gold, silver and copper, lower Costs applicable to sales, lower Depreciation and amortization, a non-cash pension settlement charge recognized in 2022, and the net gain recognized on the sale of the Triple Flag Precious Metals Corporation ("Triple Flag") investment, acquired during the first quarter of 2023 in exchange for the previously held Maverix Metals Inc. ("Maverix") investment, compared to the loss on the sale of the La Zanja equity method investment in 2022. See below for further information on the change in Costs applicable to sales and Depreciation and amortization.

The decrease in Costs applicable to sales during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, is primarily due to the Peñasquito labor strike, which contributed to a decrease in Costs applicable to sales of $209 and $391, respectively, at Peñasquito.

The decrease in Costs applicable to sales during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was further impacted by a decrease in production at Ahafo as a result of a build-up of inventory in the current year compared to a drawdown in the prior year. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in Costs applicable to sales during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, at Boddington primarily due to higher contracted services costs and higher mill maintenance costs, at Yanacocha as a result of higher contracted service costs, and at Merian primarily due to a drawdown of inventory in the current year compared to a build-up in the prior year.

The decrease in Costs applicable to sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was further impacted by (i) the profit-sharing agreement entered into by the Company during the second quarter of 2022 (the "Peñasquito Profit-Sharing Agreement"), which resulted in charges incurred in 2022 relating to 2021 site performance; and (ii) lower production at Akyem to re-sequence the mine plan and temporarily suspend mining in the main pit to make safety improvements and fortify the catch berms above the haul road into the pit, which resulted in lower royalties and lower energy and equipment maintenance costs. The decrease in Costs applicable to sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was offset by (i) higher maintenance costs at NGM, Musselwhite, Éléonore and Tanami; (ii) higher energy costs due to inflation at NGM; and (iii) higher materials, labor, and contracted service costs at Cerro Negro, Musselwhite, and Éléonore resulting from higher cost inputs.

The decrease to Depreciation and amortization during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, is primarily due to (i) lower sales and production volume at Peñasquito as a result of the Peñasquito labor strike

Table of Contents

and (ii) a decrease in the depreciable asset base at CC&V resulting from the impairment charge recognized during the fourth quarter of 2022. Additionally, the decrease in Depreciation and amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, is due to lower depreciation at NGM due to lower leach pad production at Long Canyon as a result of the ramp down of mining and lower amortization rates at Carlin as a result of a longer mill life, partially offset by higher Depreciation and amortization at Ahafo and Porcupine due to asset additions.

For discussion regarding other significant drivers impacting Depreciation and amortization by site, see Results of Consolidated Operations below.

For discussion regarding variations in operations, see Results of Operations below.

Advanced projects, research and development expense was $53 and $80 during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $132 and $169 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022 is primarily due to (i) higher commitment fee payments in 2022 on the strategic alliance with Caterpillar Inc. ("CAT") relating to the Company's climate change initiatives, (ii) lower project spend relating to certain Cerro Negro expansion projects and Galore Creek in Corporate and Other, and (iii) lower full potential spend at various sites.

Income and mining tax expense (benefit) was $73 and $96 during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $449 and $343 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate is driven by a number of factors and the comparability of our income tax expense for the reported periods will be primarily affected by (i) variations in our income before income taxes; (ii) geographic distribution of that income; (iii) impacts of the changes in tax law; (iv) valuation allowances on tax assets; (v) percentage depletion; (vi) fluctuation in the value of the USD and foreign currencies; and (vii) the impact of specific transactions and assessments. As a result, the effective tax rate will fluctuate, sometimes significantly, year to year. This trend is expected to continue in future periods. Refer to Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of income taxes.

In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IRA") into law. The IRA introduced an excise tax on stock repurchases of 1% and a corporate alternative minimum tax (the "Corporate AMT") of 15% on the adjusted financial statement income ("AFSI") of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1 billion over a three-year period. The IRA is effective for fiscal periods beginning 2023. While waiting on pending Department of Treasury regulatory guidance, we are continuing to monitor developments. Based upon information known to date, the IRA has no material impact in the current consolidated financial statements, disclosures, or cash flows. Further, it is not anticipated to have a material impact to future consolidated financial statements, disclosures, or cash flows. Refer to Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Results of Consolidated Operations

Newmont has developed gold equivalent ounces ("GEO") metrics to provide a comparable basis for analysis and understanding of our operations and performance related to copper, silver, lead and zinc. Gold equivalent ounces are calculated as pounds or ounces produced or sold multiplied by the ratio of the other metals’ price to the gold price, using the metal prices in the table below:


	Gold		Copper		Silver		Lead		Zinc
	(ounce)		(pound)		(ounce)		(pound)		(pound)
2023 GEO Price	$	1,400	$	3.50	$	20.00	$	1.00	$	1.20
2022 GEO Price	$	1,200	$	3.25	$	23.00	$	0.95	$	1.15

Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce decreased 11% primarily due to higher gold ounces sold at Cortez and Turquoise Ridge. All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce increased 11% primarily due to higher sustaining capital spend at Carlin and Cortez.

Pueblo Viejo, Dominican Republic. Attributable gold production decreased 26% primarily due to lower ore grades processed due to mine sequencing, as well as lower mill throughput and lower mill recovery associated with the commissioning of the mill expansion. Refer to Note 11 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our equity method investments.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

Our foreign operations sell their gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc production based on USD metal prices. Therefore, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue. Despite selling gold and silver in London, we have no exposure to the euro or the British pound.

Foreign currency exchange rates can increase or decrease profits to the extent costs are paid in foreign currencies, including the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Mexican peso, the Argentine peso, the Peruvian sol, the Surinamese dollar, and the Ghanaian cedi. Approximately 46% and 48% of Costs applicable to sales were paid in currencies other than the USD during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30, 2023		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Australian dollar	19	%	18	%
Canadian dollar	14	%	14	%
Mexican peso	4	%	8	%
Argentine peso	5	%	5	%
Peruvian sol	2	%	2	%
Surinamese dollar	2	%	1	%

Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the USD at our foreign mining operations decreased Costs applicable to sales by $82 and $79 per ounce during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, respectively, primarily in Argentina.

Our Cerro Negro mine, located in Argentina, is a USD functional currency entity. Argentina is a hyperinflationary economy. In recent years, Argentina’s central bank enacted a number of foreign currency controls in an effort to stabilize the local currency, including requiring the Company to convert USD proceeds from metal sales to local currency within 60 days from shipment date or five business days from receipt of cash, whichever happens first, as well as restricting payments to foreign-related entities denominated in foreign currency, such as dividends or distributions to the parent and related companies and royalties and other payments to foreign beneficiaries. These restrictions directly impact Cerro Negro's ability to repay intercompany debt to the Company. We continue to monitor the foreign currency exposure risk and the limitations of repatriating cash to the U.S. Currently, these currency controls are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Our Merian mine, located in the country of Suriname, is a USD functional currency entity. Suriname has experienced significant inflation over the last three years and is a highly inflationary economy. In 2021, the Central Bank took steps to stabilize the local currency, while the government introduced new legislation to narrow the gap between government revenues and spending. The measures to increase government revenue mainly consist of tax increases; however, Newmont and the Republic of Suriname have a Mineral Agreement in place that supersedes such measures. Despite steps taken by the Central Bank, the Surinamese Dollar has continued to devalue. The majority of Merian’s activity has historically been denominated in USD; as a result, the devaluation of the Surinamese dollar has resulted in an immaterial impact on our financial statements. Therefore, future devaluation of the Surinamese dollar is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Overview

We have a disciplined capital allocation strategy of maintaining financial flexibility to execute our capital priorities and generate long-term value for our shareholders. Consistent with that strategy, we aim to self-fund development projects and make strategic partnerships focused on profitable growth, while reducing our debt and returning cash to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.

The Company continues to experience the impacts from geopolitical and macroeconomic pressures. With the resulting volatile environment, we continue to monitor inflationary conditions, the effects of certain countermeasures taken by central banks, and the potential for further supply chain disruptions, as well as an uncertain and evolving labor market. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of these events, or changes in commodity prices, the prices for gold and other metals, and foreign exchange rates, we could continue to experience volatility; transportation industry disruptions could continue, including limitations on shipping produced metals; our supply chain could continue to experience disruption; cost inflation rates could further increase; or we could incur credit related losses of certain financial assets, which could materially impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

As of September 30, 2023, we believe our available liquidity allows us to manage the short- and, possibly, long-term material adverse impacts of these events on our business. Refer to Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on risks and uncertainties.

At September 30, 2023, the Company had $3,190 in Cash and cash equivalents. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents are invested in a variety of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Our Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid and low-risk investments that are available to fund our operations as necessary. We may have investments in prime money market funds that are classified as cash and cash equivalents; however, we continually monitor the need for reclassification under the SEC requirements for money market funds, and the potential that the shares of such funds could have a net asset value of less than their par value. We believe that our liquidity and capital resources are adequate to fund our operations and corporate activities.

At September 30, 2023, $1,529 of Cash and cash equivalents was held in foreign subsidiaries and is primarily held in USD denominated accounts with the remainder in foreign currencies readily convertible to USD. Cash and cash equivalents denominated in Argentine peso are subject to regulatory restrictions. Refer to Foreign Currency Exchange Rates above for further information. At September 30, 2023, $1,173 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents was held at certain 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 our existing consolidated Cash and cash equivalents, time deposits, available capacity on our revolving credit facility, and cash generated from continuing operations will be adequate to satisfy working capital needs, fund future growth, meet debt obligations and meet other liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. At September 30, 2023, our borrowing capacity on our revolving credit facility was $3,000 and we had no borrowings outstanding. We continue to remain compliant with covenants and do not currently anticipate any events or circumstances that would impact our ability to access funds available on this facility.

(2)Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management to evaluate financial flexibility and strength of the Company's balance sheet. Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures, below.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations was $2,138 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease in cash provided of $50 from the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to lower Sales as a result of the Peñasquito labor strike in 2023, partially offset by higher average realized prices for gold and copper.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $(753) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease in cash used of $1,504 from the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the maturity of all time deposits with an original maturity of more than three months but less than one year in 2023, the sale of the Triple Flag investment in 2023, and the payment to Buenaventura relating to the sale of the La Zanja equity method investment in 2022, partially offset by higher capital expenditures in 2023.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(1,065) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease in cash used of $812 from the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to lower dividend payments in 2023, the acquisition of noncontrolling interest in Yanacocha in 2022, and higher net repayments of debt in 2022.

Capital Resources

In October 2023, the Board declared a dividend of $0.40 per share, determined under the dividend framework. This framework is non-binding and is periodically reviewed and reassessed by the Board of Directors. The declaration and payment of future dividends remains at the full discretion of the Board and will depend on the Company’s financial results, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.

Capital Expenditures

Cash generated from operations is used to execute our capital priorities, which include sustaining and developing our global portfolio of long-lived assets. Our near-term development capital projects include Tanami Expansion 2 and Ahafo North, which are being funded from existing liquidity and will continue to be funded from future operating cash flows. Additionally, on September 30, 2023, the San Marcos deposit achieved commercial production, the first of six ore bodies in the Cerro Negro expansion projects.

We consider sustaining capital as those capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. Capital expenditures to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations, where these projects will enhance production or reserves, are considered non-sustaining or development capital. The Company’s decision to reprioritize, sell or abandon a development project, which may include returning mining concessions to host governments, could result in a future impairment charge.

Additionally, as part of our ESG initiatives, in November 2021, Newmont announced a strategic alliance with CAT and pledged a preliminary investment of $100 with the aim to develop and implement a comprehensive all-electric autonomous mining system to achieve zero emissions mining. Newmont has paid $39, all of which occurred in 2022, and the remaining pledged amount is anticipated to be paid as certain milestones are reached through 2025. Payments are recognized in Advanced projects, research and development within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other investments supporting our climate change initiatives are expected to include emissions reduction projects and renewable energy opportunities as we seek to achieve these climate targets. For risks related to climate-related capital expenditures, see Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

Debt

Debt and Corporate Revolving Credit Facilities. There were no material changes to our debt and corporate revolving credit facilities since December 31, 2022. Refer to Part II, Item 7 of our Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, for information regarding our debt and corporate revolving credit facilities.

In April 2023, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Second Amendment”) to amend certain terms of the existing $3,000 revolving credit agreement dated April 4, 2019, as amended by the first amendment dated as of March 30, 2021. The Second Amendment provides for the replacement of LIBOR-based rates with SOFR-based rates. Debt covenants under the Second Amendment are substantially the same as the existing credit agreement.

Debt Covenants. There were no material changes to our debt covenants. Refer to Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, for information regarding our debt covenants. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all existing debt covenants and provisions related to potential defaults.

Supplemental Guarantor Information. The Company filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, as amended, which enables us to issue an indeterminate number or amount of common stock, preferred stock, depository shares, debt securities, guarantees of debt securities, warrants and units (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). Under the Shelf Registration Statement, our debt securities may be guaranteed by Newmont USA Limited (“Newmont USA”), one of our consolidated subsidiaries (Newmont, as issuer, and Newmont USA, as guarantor, are collectively referred to here-within as the “Obligor Group”). These guarantees are full and unconditional, and none of our other subsidiaries guarantee any security issued and outstanding. The cash provided by operations of the Obligor Group, and all of its subsidiaries, is available to satisfy debt repayments as they become due, and there are no material restrictions on the ability of the Obligor Group to obtain funds from subsidiaries by dividend, loan, or otherwise, except to the extent of any rights of noncontrolling interests or regulatory restrictions limiting repatriation of cash. Net assets attributable to noncontrolling interests were $186 and $179 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All noncontrolling interests relate to non-guarantor subsidiaries. For further information on our noncontrolling interests, refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Newmont and Newmont USA are primarily holding companies with no material operations, sources of income or assets other than equity interest in their subsidiaries and intercompany receivables or payables. Newmont USA’s primary investments are comprised of its 100% interest in Yanacocha and its 38.5% interest in NGM. For further information regarding these and our other operations, refer to Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Results of Consolidated Operations within Part I, Item 2, MD&A.

In addition to equity interests in subsidiaries, the Obligor Group’s balance sheets consisted primarily of the following intercompany assets, intercompany liabilities and external debt. The remaining assets and liabilities of the Obligor Group are considered immaterial at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.


	At September 30, 2023				At December 31, 2022
	Obligor Group		Newmont USA		Obligor Group		Newmont USA
Current intercompany assets	$	12,192	$	7,819	$	13,982	$	5,815
Non-current intercompany assets	$	527	$	513	$	520	$	506
Current intercompany liabilities	$	13,519	$	3,486	$	13,118	$	1,907


Non-current external debt	$	5,569	$	—	$	5,564	$	—

Newmont USA's subsidiary guarantees (the “subsidiary guarantees”) are general unsecured senior obligations of Newmont USA and rank equal in right of payment to all of Newmont USA's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of Newmont USA's future subordinated indebtedness. The subsidiary guarantees are effectively junior to any secured indebtedness of Newmont USA to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

At September 30, 2023, Newmont USA had approximately $5,569 of consolidated indebtedness (including guaranteed debt), all of which relates to the guarantees of indebtedness of Newmont.

Under the terms of the subsidiary guarantees, holders of Newmont’s securities subject to such subsidiary guarantees will not be required to exercise their remedies against Newmont before they proceed directly against Newmont USA.

Newmont USA will be released and relieved from all its obligations under the subsidiary guarantees in certain specified circumstances, including, but not limited to, the following:

•upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of a majority of the total voting power of the capital stock or other interests of Newmont USA (other than to Newmont or any of Newmont’s affiliates);

•upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of Newmont USA (other than to Newmont or any of Newmont’s affiliates); or

•upon such time as Newmont USA ceases to guarantee more than $75 aggregate principal amount of Newmont’s debt (at September 30, 2023, Newmont USA guaranteed $600 aggregate principal amount of debt of Newmont that did not contain a similar fall-away provision).

Newmont’s debt securities are effectively junior to any secured indebtedness of Newmont to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all debt and other liabilities of Newmont’s non-guarantor subsidiaries. At September 30, 2023, (i) Newmont’s total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $6,087, none of which was secured (other than $512 of Lease and other financing obligations), and (ii) Newmont’s non-guarantor subsidiaries had $4,952 of total liabilities (including trade payables, but excluding intercompany and external debt and reclamation and remediation liabilities), which would have been structurally senior to Newmont’s debt securities.

For further information on our debt, refer to Note 14 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (dollars in millions, except per ounce and per pound amounts).

Metal Prices

Changes in the market price of gold significantly affect our profitability and cash flow. Gold prices can fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as demand; forward selling by producers; central bank sales, purchases and lending; investor sentiment; the strength of the USD; inflation, deflation, or other general price instability; and global mine production levels. Changes in the market price of copper, silver, lead and zinc also affect our profitability and cash flow. These metals are traded on established international exchanges and prices generally reflect market supply and demand but can also be influenced by speculative trading in the commodity or by currency exchange rates.

Decreases in the market price of metals can also significantly affect the value of our product inventory, stockpiles and leach pads, and it may be necessary to record a write-down to the net realizable value, as well as significantly impact our carrying value of

Table of Contents

long-lived assets and goodwill. Refer to Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for information regarding the sensitivity of our impairment analyses over long-lived assets and goodwill to changes in metal price.

Net realizable value represents the estimated future sales price based on short-term and long-term metals prices, less estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. The primary factors that influence the need to record write-downs of our stockpiles, leach pads and product inventory include short-term and long-term metals prices and costs for production inputs such as labor, fuel and energy, materials and supplies as well as realized ore grades and recovery rates.

The significant assumptions in determining the stockpile, leach pad and product inventory adjustments for each mine site reporting unit at September 30, 2023 included production cost and capitalized expenditure assumptions unique to each operation and short-term and long-term assumptions as follows:


	Short-Term		Long-Term
Gold price (per ounce)	$	1,928	$	1,600
Copper price (per pound)	$	3.79	$	3.75
Silver price (per ounce)	$	23.57	$	22.00
Lead price (per pound)	$	0.98	$	0.90
Zinc price (per pound)	$	1.10	$	1.25
AUD to USD exchange rate	$	0.65	$	0.70
CAD to USD exchange rate	$	0.75	$	0.78
MXN to USD exchange rate	$	0.06	$	0.05

The net realizable value measurement involves the use of estimates and assumptions unique to each mining operation regarding current and future operating and capital costs, metal recoveries, production levels, commodity prices, proven and probable reserve quantities, engineering data and other factors. A high degree of judgment is involved in determining such assumptions and estimates and no assurance can be given that actual results will not differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk related to the fair value of our senior notes which consist of fixed rates. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. The terms of our fixed rate debt obligations do not generally allow investors to demand payment of these obligations prior to maturity. Therefore, we do not have significant exposure to interest rate risk for our fixed rate debt; however, we do have exposure to fair value risk if we repurchase or exchange long-term debt prior to maturity which could be material. See Note 9 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information pertaining to the fair value of our fixed rate debt.

Foreign Currency

In addition to our operations in the U.S., we have significant operations and/or assets in Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia and Ghana. All of our operations sell their gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc production based on USD metal prices. Foreign currency exchange rates can fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as supply and demand for foreign and U.S. currencies and U.S. and foreign country economic conditions. Fluctuations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the USD can increase or decrease profit margins, capital expenditures, cash flow and Costs applicable to sales per ounce/ pound to the extent costs are paid in local currency at foreign operations.

We performed a sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact to Costs applicable to sales per ounce arising from a hypothetical 10% adverse movement to local currency exchange rates at September 30, 2023 in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations. The sensitivity analyses indicated that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement would result in an approximate $60 increase to Costs applicable to sales per ounce at September 30, 2023.

Hedging

In May 2023, the Company entered into C$348 of CAD-denominated and A$648 of AUD-denominated fixed forward contracts to mitigate variability in the USD functional cash flows related to the CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated operating expenditures expected to be incurred in 2023 included in the Company's operations located in Canada and Australia, respectively. The Company has designated the fixed forward contracts as foreign currency cash flow hedges against the forecasted CAD-denominated and AUD-denominated operating expenditures.

In October 2022, the Company entered into A$574 of AUD-denominated fixed forward contracts to mitigate variability in the USD functional cash flows related to the AUD-denominated capital expenditures expected to be incurred in 2023 and 2024 during the construction and development phase of the Tanami Expansion 2 project. The Company has designated the forward contracts as foreign currency cash flow hedges against the forecasted AUD-denominated Tanami Expansion 2 capital expenditures.

Table of Contents

By using hedges, we are affected by market risk, credit risk, and market liquidity risk. Market risk is the risk that the fair value of a derivative might be adversely affected by a change in currency exchange rates, and that this in turn affects our financial condition. We manage market risk by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. We mitigate this potential risk to our financial condition by establishing trading agreements with counterparties under which we are not required to post any collateral or be subject to any margin calls on our derivatives. Our counterparties cannot require settlement solely because of an adverse change in the fair value of a derivative. We have performed a sensitivity analysis as of September 30, 2023, using a modeling technique that measures the change in the fair values arising from a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in the AUD and CAD foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant. The analysis covered all of our AUD and CAD-denominated fixed forward contracts. The foreign currency exchange rates we used in performing the sensitivity analysis were based on AUD and CAD market rates in effect at September 30, 2023. The sensitivity analyses indicated that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in foreign currency exchange rates would result in an approximate decrease in the fair value of the hedging derivative instruments of $47 at September 30, 2023.

Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to fulfill its performance obligations under the terms of a financial instrument. We mitigate credit risk by entering into derivatives with high credit quality counterparties, limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of the counterparties.

Market liquidity risk is the risk that a derivative cannot be eliminated quickly, by either liquidating it or by establishing an offsetting position. Under the terms of our trading agreements, counterparties cannot require us to immediately settle outstanding derivatives, except upon the occurrence of customary events of default such as covenant breaches, including financial covenants, insolvency or bankruptcy. We further mitigate market liquidity risk by spreading out the maturity of our derivatives over time.

Commodity Price Exposure

Our provisional concentrate sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the respective metal concentrates at the prevailing indices’ prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which is not designated for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.

We perform an analysis on the provisional concentrate sales to determine the potential impact to Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders for each 10% change to the average price on the provisional concentrate sales subject to final pricing over the next several months. Refer below for our analysis as of September 30, 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

During the fiscal period covered by this report, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as amended). Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Information regarding legal proceedings is contained in Note 18 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

There were no material changes from the risk factors set forth under Part I, Business; Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023, and Part II, Other Information; Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023, as filed with the SEC on July 20, 2023, except as set forth below.

Risks Relating to the Newcrest Transaction

As disclosed in this Form 10-Q, including in Part I, Item 1 “Financial statements—Note 1 Basis of Presentation” and Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Overview,” on May 14, 2023, the Company entered into a Scheme Implementation Deed (as amended by a letter deed dated, September 4, 2023 the “Transaction Agreement”) to acquire all issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Newcrest in a stock transaction pursuant to a court-approved Scheme of Arrangement between Newcrest and its shareholders (the “Scheme”, and such acquisition, the “Newcrest Transaction”). There can be no assurance that the Newcrest Transaction will be completed as expected, in a timely manner or at all. The Newcrest Transaction could subject us to significant risks, including those described below.

The Transaction Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances and we may be required to pay a reverse break fee.

Each of Newmont and Newcrest has the right to terminate the Transaction Agreement in certain circumstances. For instance, either party may terminate the Transaction Agreement if the Scheme has not become effective by 11:59 p.m. (Melbourne, Australia time) on February 15, 2024 (the “End Date”). Failure to implement the Newcrest Transaction could negatively impact the trading price of our common stock or otherwise adversely affect Newmont’s business.

In addition, if, during the Exclusivity Period, (i) Newcrest validly terminates the Transaction Agreement for a material breach of certain terms of the Transaction Agreement by us, (ii) a Newmont Competing Proposal is announced and, within 18 months of announcement, such Newmont Competing Proposal is completed or (iii) Newmont or Newmont Sub fails to pay or procure the payment of the Scheme Consideration in accordance with the Transaction Agreement, we will be required to pay a reverse break fee of approximately $375 million to Newcrest. If the Transaction Agreement is validly terminated by Newmont or Newcrest for a failure to obtain Newmont stockholder approval of the share issuance proposal, we will be required to pay a reverse break fee equal to the aggregate of all third-party costs and expenses actually incurred by the Newcrest Group during the period commencing on January 14, 2023 and ending on the date of the special meeting of Newmont stockholders at which the share issuance proposal is voted. If a reverse break fee is ultimately required to be paid by Newmont, the payment of such fee will have an adverse impact on our financial results.

We will incur significant transaction and transaction-related costs in connection with the Newcrest Transaction.

We and Newcrest have incurred and expect to incur additional significant costs associated with the Newcrest Transaction and combining the businesses of the two companies. Our fees and expenses related to the Newcrest Transaction include financial advisor fees, filing fees, taxes, legal and accounting fees, soliciting fees and regulatory fees. Some of these fees will be paid regardless of whether the Newcrest Transaction is implemented. The combined company will incur costs associated with combining the two companies. However, it is difficult to predict the amount of these costs before the integration process begins. The combined company may incur additional unanticipated costs as a consequence of difficulties arising from efforts to integrate the companies. Such costs may be significant and could have an adverse effect on our future results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

The issuance of a significant number of shares of Newmont common stock in connection with the Newcrest Transaction and a resulting “market overhang” could adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock after implementation of the Newcrest Transaction.

On implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, a significant number of additional shares of our common stock will be issued and available for trading in the public market. The increase in the number of shares of our common stock may lead to sales of such shares or the perception that such sales may occur (commonly referred to as “market overhang”), either of which may adversely affect the market for, and the market price of, shares of our common stock (and New Newmont CDIs and New Newmont PDIs).

In addition, if the Newcrest Transaction is not implemented, the market price of our common stock could decline to the extent that it reflects an assumption that the Newcrest Transaction will be implemented or is material to our business strategy.

We do not currently control Newcrest and its subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

We will not control Newcrest and its subsidiaries until implementation of the Newcrest Transaction and the business and results of operations of the combined company may be adversely affected by events that are outside of the combined company’s control during the intervening period. The performance of Newcrest may be influenced by, among other factors, economic downturns, changes in commodity prices, political instability in the countries in which Newcrest operates, changes in applicable laws, expropriation, increased environmental regulation, volatility in the financial markets, unfavorable regulatory decisions, litigation, regulatory action, rising costs, civil and labor unrest, disagreements with joint venture partners, delays in ongoing exploration and development projects and other factors beyond the combined company’s control. See “— Risks Relating to Newcrest” below. As a result of any one or more of these factors, among others, the operations and financial performance of Newcrest may be negatively affected, which may adversely affect the future financial results of the combined company.

Newcrest and Newmont have in the past been, and may in the future be the targets of legal claims, securities class actions, derivative lawsuits and other claims and negative publicity related to the Newcrest Transaction.

Newcrest and Newmont may be the target of securities class actions and derivative lawsuits related to the Newcrest Transaction, which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits may be brought against companies that have entered into an agreement to acquire a public company or to be acquired. Third parties may also attempt to bring claims against Newmont or Newcrest seeking to restrain the Newcrest Transaction or seeking monetary compensation or other remedies. For example, in connection with the Transaction, two complaints were filed against Newmont and the individual members of Newmont’s board of directors generally alleging that the proxy statement that was filed in connection with the Transaction misrepresented and/or omitted certain allegedly material information concerning the Transaction. In exchange for Newmont filing supplemental disclosure to the proxy statement, the plaintiffs in these actions agreed that their claims are now moot and that they would voluntarily discontinue their actions. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, then that injunction may delay or prevent implementation.

In addition, political and public attitudes towards the Newcrest Transaction could result in negative press coverage and other adverse public statements affecting Newmont and Newcrest. Adverse press coverage and other adverse statements could lead to investigations by regulators, legislators and law enforcement officials or in legal claims or otherwise negatively impact the ability of the combined company to take advantage of various business and market opportunities. The direct and indirect effects of negative publicity, and the demands of responding to and addressing it, may have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Market response to the Newcrest Transaction or significant delays in implementation of the Newcrest Transaction could negatively affect the price of the combined company’s common stock or have an adverse impact on the combined company’s business and operations.

The market price of the combined company’s common stock may vary significantly from the price on the date of the Scheme Implementation Deed. Negative market response to the Newcrest Transaction or any significant delays in implementation of the Newcrest Transaction could negatively affect the combined company’s stock price.

If implementation of the Newcrest Transaction is delayed, the market price of our common stock and Newcrest’s ordinary shares (and therefore the combined company’s common stock) may decline significantly, particularly to the extent the market price reflects a market assumption that the Newcrest Transaction will be implemented in a particular timeframe. Share price changes may result from a variety of factors that are beyond the combined company’s control, including:

•market assessment of the likelihood of the Newcrest Transaction being implemented;

•changes in the respective businesses, operations or prospects of Newmont or Newcrest, including their respective ability to meet earnings estimates;

•governmental or litigation developments or regulatory considerations affecting Newmont or Newcrest or the mining industry;

•general business, market, industry or economic conditions;

•the worldwide supply/demand balance for gold and copper and the prevailing commodity price environment; and

•other factors beyond the combined company’s control, including those described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section.

Risks Relating to Implementation of the Newcrest Transaction

Significant demands will be placed on the combined company as a result of the Newcrest Transaction.

As a result of the pursuit and implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, significant demands will be placed on the managerial, operational and financial personnel and systems of the combined company. There can be no assurance that the systems, procedures and controls of Newmont and Newcrest will be adequate to support the expansion of operations and associated increased costs and complexity following and resulting from implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. The future operating results of the

Table of Contents

combined company will be affected by the ability of its officers and key employees to manage changing business conditions, to integrate Newcrest, to implement a new business strategy and to improve its operational and financial controls and reporting systems.

The combined company may not realize the anticipated benefits of the Newcrest Transaction and the integration of Newcrest may not occur as planned.

We have pursued the Newcrest Transaction with the expectation that its implementation will result in an increase in sustained profitability, cost savings and enhanced growth opportunities for the combined company. These anticipated benefits will depend in part on whether Newcrest’s and Newmont’s operations can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner. A significant number of operational and strategic decisions and certain staffing decisions with respect to integration of the two companies have not yet been made. These decisions and the integration of the two companies will present challenges to management, including the integration of systems and personnel of the two companies, which may be geographically separated, anticipated and unanticipated liabilities, unanticipated costs (including substantial capital expenditures required by the integration) and the loss of key employees.

The performance of the combined company’s operations after implementation of the Newcrest Transaction could be adversely affected if, among other things, the combined company is not able to achieve the anticipated savings and synergies expected to be realized in pursuing the Newcrest Transaction, or retain key employees to assist in the integration and operation of Newcrest and Newmont. The implementation of the Newcrest Transaction may pose special risks, including one-time write-offs, restructuring charges and unanticipated costs. In addition, the integration process could result in diversion of the attention of management and disruption of existing relationships with suppliers, employees, customers and other constituencies of each company. Although Newmont and its advisors have conducted due diligence on the operations of Newcrest, there can be no guarantee that Newmont is aware of any and all liabilities of the Newcrest Group. As a result of these factors, it is possible that certain benefits expected from the combination of Newcrest and Newmont may not be realized.

Newcrest’s public filings are subject to Australian disclosure standards, which differ from SEC disclosure requirements.

Our mineral reserve and resource estimates have been prepared in accordance with Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K adopted by the SEC (the “S-K 1300 Standard”). Newcrest’s Ore Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates (the “Newcrest Historical Estimates”) have been prepared by Newcrest in accordance with the applicable reporting requirements of, and are based on confidence categories defined in, the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, December 2012 (the “JORC Code”), and the reporting requirements of the ASX Listing Rules Chapter 5, July 2022 (together, “the Australian Standards”), each of which differs from the requirements of the S-K 1300 Standard. We have not been involved in the preparation of the Newcrest Historical Estimates. Newcrest has not been involved in the preparation of our mineral reserve and resource estimates.

The S-K 1300 Standard and the Australian Standards have similar goals in terms of conveying an appropriate level of confidence in the disclosures being reported but embody different approaches and definitions. For example, the terms “Ore Reserve,” “Proved Ore Reserve,” “Probable Ore Reserve,” “Mineral Resource,” “Measured Mineral Resource,” “Indicated Mineral Resource,” and “Inferred Mineral Resource” are Australian mining terms as defined in the JORC Code, and their definitions differ from the definitions of the terms “mineral reserve,” “proven mineral reserve,” “probable mineral reserve,” “mineral resource,” “measured mineral resource,” “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” under the S-K 1300 Standard. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to the existence of such resources and their economic and legal feasibility. A significant amount of exploration must be completed in order to determine whether an inferred mineral resource may be upgraded to a higher category. Under the S-K 1300 Standard, a pre-feasibility study, as defined under the S-K 1300 Standard, is typically required to report mineral reserves supported by a discounted cash flow analysis. The requirements for a pre-feasibility study under the S-K 1300 Standard are generally stricter than what is acceptable under JORC and could require reclassification of previously declared mineral reserves to mineral resources, and there may also be adjustments to the amounts of previously declared mineral reserves and resources pending further study work. In addition to such adjustments, the JORC Code allows Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources to be reported inclusive of Mineral Resources modified to produce its Ore Reserves whereas the S-K 1300 Standard requires mineral resources to be reported exclusive of mineral reserves.

Expectations regarding the mineral reserves and mineral resources of Newmont and Newcrest following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction will remain subject to adjustment, pending continuing review of Newcrest’s mineral reserves and mineral resources in accordance with the S-K 1300 Standard. Future adjustment may occur due to differing standards, required study levels, price assumptions, future divestments and acquisitions and other factors. No assurances can be made that the Newcrest Historical Estimates will be recognized as Newmont mineral reserves or mineral resources and any differences may be material.

The combined company will face new political risks in certain jurisdictions in which Newcrest operates.

Newcrest’s principal operations, development and exploration activities will expose the combined company to new jurisdictions, including Papua New Guinea ("PNG"), Ecuador and Fiji, some of which may be considered to have an increased degree of political and sovereign risks. Newcrest conducts operations, development and exploration activities and holds significant investments in Australia, the United States, Chile, PNG, Canada, Ecuador and Fiji. Any material adverse changes in the government policies or legislation of such countries or any other country in which Newcrest has economic interests may affect the viability and profitability of the combined company following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. See “— Risks Relating to Newcrest — Newcrest’s

operations at Lihir and Wafi-Golpu in PNG are subject to political and regulatory risks and other uncertainties” and “—Risks Relating to Newcrest — Newcrest’s operations at Red Chris and Brucejack in British Columbia, Canada are subject to political and regulatory risks and other uncertainties,” below.

While the governments in PNG, Ecuador and Fiji have historically supported the development of natural resources by foreign companies, there is no assurance that such governments will not in the future adopt different regulations policies or interpretations with respect to, but not limited to, foreign ownership of mineral resources, royalty rates, taxation, rates of exchange, environmental protection, labor relations, repatriation of income or return of capital, restrictions on production or processing, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, or Newcrest’s obligations under its respective mining codes and stability conventions. The possibility that such governments may adopt substantially different policies or interpretations, which might extend to the expropriation of assets, may have a material adverse effect on the combined company following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. Political risk also includes the possibility of terrorism, civil or labor disturbances and political instability. No assurance can be given that applicable governments will not revoke or significantly alter the conditions of the applicable exploration and mining authorizations nor can assurance be given that such exploration and mining authorizations will not be challenged or impugned by third parties. The effect of any of these factors may have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Implementation of the Newcrest Transaction may result in one or more ratings organizations taking actions which may adversely affect the combined company’s business, financial condition and operating results, as well as the market price of the combined company’s common stock.

Rating organizations regularly analyze the financial performance and condition of companies and may re-evaluate the combined company’s credit ratings following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. Factors that may impact the combined company’s credit ratings include debt levels, planned asset purchases or sales and near-term and long-term production growth opportunities, liquidity, asset quality, cost structure, product mix and commodity pricing levels. If a ratings downgrade were to occur in connection with the Newcrest Transaction, the combined company could experience higher borrowing costs in the future and more restrictive covenants which would reduce profitability and diminish operational flexibility. No assurance can be provided that any of our current ratings will remain in effect following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction for any given period of time or that a rating will not be lowered by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant.

Increased exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations and capital controls may adversely affect the combined company’s earnings and the value of the combined company’s assets.

The combined company’s reporting currency will be the U.S. dollar and the majority of its earnings and cash flows will be denominated in U.S. dollars. Newcrest’s operations are also conducted in U.S. dollars, but Newcrest conducts some of its business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As a result, following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, the combined company’s consolidated earnings and cash flows may also be impacted by movements in the exchange rates to a greater extent than prior to implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. In particular, any change in the value of the currencies of the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the PNG kina, the Chilean peso or the Fijian dollar versus the U.S. dollar could negatively impact the combined company’s ability to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the Newcrest Transaction.

In addition, from time to time, emerging markets such as those in which the combined company will operate adopt measures to restrict the availability of the local currency or the repatriation of capital across borders. These measures are imposed by governments or central banks, in some cases during times of economic instability, to prevent the removal of capital or the sudden devaluation of local currencies or to maintain in-country foreign currency reserves. In addition, many emerging markets require consents or reporting processes before local currency earnings can be converted into U.S. dollars or other currencies and/or such earnings can be repatriated or otherwise transferred outside of the operating jurisdiction. These measures may have a number of negative effects on the combined company, including reducing the immediately available capital that the combined company could otherwise deploy for investment opportunities or the payment of expenses. In addition, measures that restrict the availability of the local currency or impose a requirement to operate in the local currency may create other practical difficulties for the combined company.

In particular, PNG is currently experiencing a backlog by foreign and domestic companies and governmental agencies to convert kina into foreign currencies, particularly into the U.S. dollar. Revenue generation and profitability in respect of foreign exchange transactions are dependent on volumes and margins, which are subject to volatility and regulatory intervention by the Bank of Papua New Guinea. There is a risk that continued volatility, and further changes in applicable regulations or policy, may adversely impact future revenue and profitability.

There have also been talks of devaluation of the kina which, if implemented, may also negatively impact the combined company’s ability to realize some of the anticipated benefits of the Newcrest Transaction.

The combined company will face new legislation and tax risks in certain Newcrest operating jurisdictions.

Newcrest has operations and conducts business in certain jurisdictions in which we do not currently operate or conduct business, including PNG and Fiji, which may increase the combined company’s susceptibility to sudden tax changes. Taxation laws in these jurisdictions are complex, subject to varying interpretations and applications by the relevant tax authorities and subject to

Table of Contents

changes and revisions in the ordinary course. In addition, following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, the combined company may be subject to tax liabilities that may exist at Newcrest or that may arise in connection with implementation of the Newcrest Transaction which are currently unknown. Any unexpected taxes imposed on the combined company could have a material and adverse impact on the combined company’s financial position.

Failure by us or Newcrest to comply with applicable laws prior to the Newcrest Transaction could subject the combined company to penalties and other adverse consequences following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction.

Newcrest is subject to anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the Australian Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cth) and the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada). The foregoing laws prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to officials, require the maintenance of records relating to such transactions and also require an adequate system of internal controls. The combined company may be liable for any violation of the foregoing laws attributable to us or Newcrest prior to implementation of the Newcrest Transaction.

We and Newcrest are also subject to a wide variety of laws relating to the environment, health and safety, taxes, employment, labor standards, money laundering, terrorist financing and other matters. Failure by us or Newcrest to comply with any of the foregoing legislation prior to implementation of the Newcrest Transaction could result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and may subject the combined company to other liabilities, including fines, prosecution and reputational damage, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition of the combined company following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction. The compliance mechanisms and monitoring programs adopted and implemented by us or Newcrest prior to implementation of the Newcrest Transaction may not adequately prevent or detect possible violations of such applicable laws. Investigations by governmental authorities related to any actual or perceived violation of the foregoing laws could also have a material adverse effect on the business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition of the combined company following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction.

The pendency of the Newcrest Transaction may cause disruptions in our business and Newcrest’s business, which could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Parties with which we and Newcrest do business may experience uncertainty associated with the Newcrest Transaction, including with respect to current or future business relationships with us, Newcrest or the combined company. Our and Newcrest’s relationships may be subject to disruption as customers, suppliers and other persons with whom we and Newcrest have a business relationship may delay or defer certain business decisions or might decide to seek to terminate, change or renegotiate their relationships with us or Newcrest, as applicable, or consider entering into business relationships with parties other than us or Newcrest. In addition, our current and prospective associates may experience uncertainty about their future roles, which might adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel and key management and other employees may be difficult to retain or may become distracted from day-to-day operations because matters related to the Newcrest Transaction may require substantial commitments of their time and resources. These disruptions could have an adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of us, Newcrest or the combined company following implementation of the Newcrest Transaction, including an adverse effect on the combined company’s ability to realize the expected synergies and other benefits of the Newcrest Transaction. The risk, and adverse effect, of any disruption could be exacerbated by a delay in implementation of the Newcrest Transaction or the termination of the Transaction Agreement.

Risks Relating to Newcrest

Gold and copper mining companies are subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations, and noncompliance with these requirements can result in sanctions, including suspension of environmental permits, fines and temporary or permanent disruptions to mining operations and projects, claims for damages, complaints from the local community and reputational harm.

Mining activities, including those conducted by Newcrest, are subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations in the various jurisdictions in which these operations are conducted. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations are subject to regular change and require significant expenditure, and noncompliance may result in enforcement action, fines, prosecutions or other sanctions, requirements to take improvement actions, including changes to production and investments in pollution control technologies, claims for personal injury or property damage or other loss, or inability to maintain or secure necessary licenses and permits, as well as reputational harm. Specific examples where Newcrest faces such risks include the following:

Waste Rock and Tailings Management

Newcrest’s mining and ore refining/metals extraction processes generate waste by-products such as waste rock (managed in waste rock dumps or, in the case of Lihir (as defined below), harbor waste rock platforms and permitted barge dumping locations) and tailings (managed by the use of tailings storage facilities, lacustrine deposition in the case of Brucejack (as defined below) or deep sea tailings placement in the case of Lihir and as proposed at Wafi-Golpu (as defined below)). Tailings storage facilities are constructed progressively throughout the life of the mine to support increasing capacity requirements. If there is a failure in the integrity of a tailings storage facility, there is a risk that tailings or large volumes of water and/or potentially contaminating materials may be

Table of Contents

released and cause material harm to human health and/or the environment downstream of the facility. Such an occurrence could severely damage Newcrest’s reputation and materially adversely impact its operating results and financial condition. It may also subject Newcrest to civil and/or criminal action, penalties and claims from environmental and planning regulators and/or affected third parties, and may lead to the suspension or disruption of Newcrest’s operations and projects.

Tailings Storage Facilities and Dust Emissions at Cadia

Tailings deposition was suspended at Cadia Holdings Pty Ltd’s. (“Cadia Holdings”) tailings storage facilities in March 2018 following an embankment slump of its Northern Tailings Storage Facility (“NTSF”), and deposition is expected to remain suspended until repairs of the NTSF wall are completed. In December 2019, Cadia Holdings received approval from the New South Wales Department of Planning and Environment (the “NSW DPE”) to fully utilize the decommissioned Cadia Hill mine pit for deposition of dewatered tailings. In December 2021, the NSW DPE granted approval to increase the permitted processing capacity from 32 to 35 million tonnes of ore in a calendar year. Such approval was subject to certain conditions, including that Cadia Holdings commission and publish an independent air quality audit report that includes a description of the details and scheduling of all reasonable and feasible best practice measures that are being implemented by Cadia Holdings to minimize off-site air quality impacts of the mine.

The independent air quality audit report published by Cadia Holdings in August 2022 indicated that dust emitted from two ventilation exhaust rises which vent emissions from underground processing operations exceeded levels permitted by applicable law. During the quarter ended June 2023, the New South Wales Environment Protection Authority (“NSW EPA”) issued variations to its Environment Protection License (“EPL”), a Prevention Notice and Notices to Provide Information regarding the management of, and investigation into potential breaches relating to, dust emissions and other air pollutants from the Cadia tailings storage facilities and ventilation rises. The license variations largely formalized the actions Cadia Holdings had developed in consultation with the NSW EPA and was already undertaking across a range of measures.

Cadia Holdings received a letter from the NSW EPA in June 2023 requiring it to immediately comply with specific statutory requirements and EPL conditions. Adjustments were implemented underground, including a reduction in mining rates, modifications to the ventilation circuit and the installation of additional dust sprays and spray curtains. Additional dust collection units were subsequently installed enabling normal mining rates to be restored.

In August 2023, the NSW EPA commenced proceedings in the Land and Environment Court of NSW (the "NSW Land and Environment Court") against Cadia Holdings, alleging that air emissions from Cadia in March 2022 exceeded the standard of concentration for total solid particles permitted under applicable laws due to the use of surface exhaust fans at the mine. On September 29, 2023, Cadia Holdings entered a plea of guilty and the NSW Land and Environmental Court listed the case for a sentencing hearing on March 28, 2024. On October 13, 2023, the NSW EPA commenced additional proceedings in the NSW Land and Environment Court against Cadia Holdings, alleging two additional contraventions of applicable air emissions requirements in November 2021 and May 2023 and two contraventions related to alleged air pollution from tailings storage facilities on October 13 and 31, 2022. A directions hearing on these matters is scheduled for November 24, 2023. The NSW EPA’s investigation regarding the management of air emissions from the mine is ongoing.

Failure to maintain compliance with applicable law or Cadia Holdings’ EPL may result in the NSW EPA suspending or revoking Cadia Holdings’ EPL, seeking court orders or issuing additional prevention notices to modify or cease certain activities. Ongoing enforcement, and challenges in maintaining compliance, may impact Cadia Holdings’ ability to secure a future expansion of its project approval to extend the life of mine from 2031 to 2055. In addition, Cadia Holdings has previously been, and may in the future be, subject to prosecutions and penalties for noncompliance with air quality requirements or the terms of its EPL, including in respect of emissions from any vent rise or emissions from the NTSF and the Southern Tailings Storage Facility (“STSF”). Operational changes required to achieve or maintain compliance, including reductions in mining rates and other limitations on mining or processing operations, or additional requirements to install costly pollution control equipment, may adversely impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

Environmental Sampling in the Cadia Area

In early 2023, residents living near Cadia (as defined below) raised concerns about potential impacts to drinking water supplies by various contaminants, including metals such as lead, nickel and copper, which they allege are related to emissions from the vent rises at Cadia, as well as periodic dust emission events at NTSF and STSF. In response to community concerns, the New South Wales Ministry of Health tested the quality of residents’ kitchen tap water and reported that it was safe to drink. The NSW EPA is also undertaking water testing in the local area and to date, the majority of results from the kitchen tap samples show metal concentrations below the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines values. External experts retained by Newcrest also conducted sampling of more than 100 residential rainwater tanks, the results of which indicated only eight instances in which applicable quality standards were not satisfied. The majority of the instances of non-compliance from both Cadia Holdings' and the NSW EPA's sampling programs showed that such instances of non-compliance were influenced by building and plumbing materials. A particulate characterization study, which was undertaken by the Australian government’s Australian Nuclear Science Technology Organisation (the “ANSTO”) and commissioned by Cadia Holdings in collaboration with the local community, assessed the PM2.5 dust contribution from Cadia to the regional air shed over a 12-month period and concluded that Cadia contributed only a small percentage of soil particulate matter. In fact, soil was determined to be the least significant source of air pollution over the 12-month period, contributing less than 10% to the total PM2.5

Table of Contents

mass. The ANSTO study also determined that metals of concern recently identified by the community, such as lead, nickel, selenium and chromium, occurred at very low levels in the PM2.5 fraction and did not exceed any national standard. The report is part of a comprehensive suite of independent air and water quality investigations, including with respect to sampling of drinking water sources, air quality monitoring, dispersion modelling and lead fingerprinting, that have been or are being conducted to determine the source of metals within the local airshed and to assess any health risks to the local community, if any, from air emissions from the Cadia mine site. In light of these developments at Cadia, there is a heightened level of community concern relating to the perceived impact of mining activities on the health of the community, and the condition of residential properties, located in proximity to Cadia. These developments, including community complaints associated with Newcrest’s activities at Cadia could give rise to reputational harm, operational disruptions, increased regulatory scrutiny of mining activities or delays to project development.

New South Wales Parliamentary Inquiry

In July 2023, a New South Wales Parliamentary Inquiry (Legislative Council’s Portfolio Committee No. 2 – Health) was commenced into current and potential community impacts of gold, silver, lead and zinc mining on human health, land, air and water quality in New South Wales. The inquiry process will include written submissions, public hearings and witness testimony. The committee’s terms of reference for the inquiry state that the committee will publish a report containing its findings, as well as its non-binding recommendations to the New South Wales Government, in November 2023. Although it is uncertain at this stage, it is possible that the inquiry’s findings may result in new regulation. Newcrest has provided a submission to the committee, and Newcrest's Interim CEO and Cadia's General Manager appeared before the committee as witnesses.

Newcrest’s operations and projects may be subject to risks related to Newcrest’s relationships and/or agreements with local communities and laws for the protection of cultural heritage, which could materially adversely impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

Newcrest’s relationships with the communities that are located near its operations or on whose land it operates are essential to the success of its existing operations, exploration activities and the construction and development of its projects. A failure to manage relationships with such communities may lead to local dissatisfaction which, in turn, may lead to interruptions to Newcrest’s operations, exploration activities and development projects. Specific challenges in community relations include community concerns over management of increased traffic, migratory workforces, environmental impacts and resource depletion, social, environmental and cultural heritage impacts, increasing expectations regarding the level of benefits that communities receive, expectations regarding achieving Free, Prior and Informed Consent of Indigenous peoples before adopting policies or undertaking projects that affect Indigenous communities, benefits sharing with Indigenous peoples’ governments, concerns focused on the level of transparency regarding the payment of compensation, the provision of other benefits to affected landholders and the wider community and decommissioning closure and legacy considerations with respect to Newcrest's operations, exploration activities and developmental projects. In particular, opposition by Indigenous communities to Newcrest’s activities may require modifications to or preclude operation or development of its projects or may require entry into additional agreements with Indigenous communities, which may result in additional costs. Newcrest’s current and future operations are subject to a risk that one or more Indigenous communities in the locations in which Newcrest operates may oppose continued operation, further development or new development of its projects or operations. Claims and protests driven by such opposition may disrupt or delay activities, including permitting, at Newcrest’s operations and projects.

The negotiation and review of agreements, including components such as business development, participation, co-management and compensation and other benefits, involve complicated and sensitive issues, associated expectations and often competing interests. The nature and subject matter of these negotiations may result in community unrest which, in some instances, may lead to interruptions to Newcrest’s exploration programs, operational activities or delays to project implementation or development.

Additionally, the evolving obligations of governments and Indigenous people under international, national and local legislation and international conventions pertaining to the rights of Indigenous people may impact Newcrest’s operations and projects. For example, the government of British Columbia, Canada has adopted the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (2019) to implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (“UNDRIP”) in British Columbia, which may impact Red Chris (as defined below) and Brucejack.

Newcrest is also subject to laws and regulations that provide for the protection and management of cultural heritage in the jurisdictions in which Newcrest operates. For example, following the destruction of Indigenous heritage sites at Juukan Gorge in Western Australia in 2020 and the inquiry and reports issued by the Commonwealth Parliament Joint Standing Committee on Northern Australia in 2021, mining companies have come under heightened scrutiny regarding cultural heritage management, including, for example, with respect to their governance and management processes and procedures around cultural heritage, engagement with Indigenous communities, removal of "gag" clauses in land use agreements and protection of cultural landscapes. Although the parliamentary inquiry focused on Indigenous cultural heritage, laws to protect and manage cultural heritage also cover non-Indigenous (historic) heritage.

In Western Australia, where Newcrest’s Telfer operation (“Telfer”) and the Havieron project, in which Newcrest holds a 70% interest, are located, the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2021 (WA) came into force in July 2023, replacing the Aboriginal Heritage Act

Table of Contents

1972 (WA) and introducing new offenses and increased penalties aimed at better protecting Aboriginal cultural heritage in Western Australia. On August 8, 2023, the Western Australian Premier announced that the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2021 (WA) will be completely repealed, with an amended Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) replacing it.

Further, Newcrest’s operations could inadvertently disturb protected cultural heritage assets, resulting in international scrutiny by investors and non-governmental organizations, negative impact on shareholder value, compensation and/or offset claims, increased costs to projects and operations, delays impacting construction or production or project development, court action or other legal proceedings and lasting reputational damage.

Newcrest’s operations at Lihir and Wafi-Golpu in PNG are subject to political and regulatory risks and other uncertainties.

Newcrest’s Lihir operation (“Lihir”), which comprises an open pit mine that produces gold doré, is located on the island of Aniolam, PNG. Newcrest also holds a 50% interest in a joint venture that owns the Wafi-Golpu exploration project (“Wafi-Golpu” and such joint venture, “WGJV”), which is located in the province of Morobe, PNG. The current PNG administration, led by Prime Minister James Marape, has stated that it wants to increase benefits for PNG from extractive projects. Potential policy changes could include introducing a new production sharing regime for minerals and oil/gas, amending or replacing the PNG Mining Act of 1992, introducing domestic processing/refining requirements, changing the level and manner of local equity participation in projects and introducing new taxation regimes, banking and foreign exchange controls and/or controls pertaining to the holding of cash and remittance of profits and capital to parent companies. Any such change could impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

In 2020, the PNG government prepared and submitted to the National Parliament of PNG (the “PNG Parliament”) a proposed new organic law to introduce a production sharing regime for the mining sector. The proposed organic law will require the approval of a two thirds majority of the PNG Parliament and, if passed in its current proposed form, purports to transfer ownership of minerals from the State of PNG to state-owned entities who would then be responsible for negotiating mineral production sharing arrangements. As currently drafted, the bill containing the proposed organic law will not apply to Lihir, but could potentially apply to Wafi-Golpu if a mining lease or mining development contract is not in place before the effective date for the proposed organic law. Prime Minister Marape has indicated that the law is intended to become effective in 2025. The bill is yet to be debated in the PNG Parliament.

On October 29, 2021, Prime Minister Marape announced proposed legislation which, if enacted, would regulate the export of gold from PNG and require that mining companies operating in PNG refine gold with a new national mint. At this stage, it is unclear whether this proposed legislation will become law and, if so, when it would take effect. In addition, in June 2023, the PNG government released a new national gold bullion policy setting out the government’s objective of establishing a domestic gold bullion program to refine gold, hold gold reserves and eventually enter into trading in the world gold market. It is unclear when or how the new national gold bullion policy will be implemented, and how the policy will interact with the legislation proposed in 2021. Under the terms of the Lihir mining development contract, Newcrest may be required to refine a portion of its Lihir gold production within PNG if certain quality and security requirements are met and the terms offered are commercially competitive, but it is otherwise free to enter into arms’ length refining contracts with refineries outside of PNG.

The PNG government has also announced that it is considering replacing the current PNG Income Tax Act with a new Income Tax Act (the “NITA”) with limited consultation undertaken to date. The latest draft legislation provides that the NITA will come into force from January 1, 2024. If passed in the current proposed form, the NITA would introduce significant tax uncertainty and potentially adverse tax outcomes for Newcrest. For example, the NITA is incomplete in its current form due to the lack of transitional provisions, key regulations and other key ancillary pieces of legislation. Without these key provisions, it is not clear how existing tax attributes of mining companies would be treated under the NITA, which may have a material adverse effect on Newcrest given the material tax attributes held by Lihir and Wafi-Golpu. The PNG government has indicated that transitional provisions, regulations and other required legislation will be introduced, but no drafts have been released or made available for public consultation to date. Any adverse changes to income tax laws will affect Lihir because it has no fiscal stability agreement with the PNG government and may also affect Wafi-Golpu depending on the terms of any project agreements that may be entered into with the PNG government.

There is also the potential for legal challenges to the Wafi-Golpu permitting process as it progresses towards completion, including by PNG provincial governments, landowner groups and civil society organizations. For example, in March 2021 and December 2022, the governor of Morobe Province and certain residents of the surrounding areas of Wafi-Golpu, respectively, commenced judicial review applications against the State of PNG, challenging the December 2020 grant of the environmental permit for Wafi-Golpu. Both reviews are still to be heard and determined. Any such legal challenges may adversely impact the Wafi-Golpu permitting process. In addition, WGJV is currently engaging with the State of PNG to progress the permitting of Wafi-Golpu and has commenced discussions relating to its application for a special mining lease, which was submitted to the PNG Mineral Resources Authority in 2016. On April 6, 2023, WGJV signed a Framework Memorandum of Understanding with the State of PNG, which confirmed the parties’ intent to proceed with the project at Wafi-Golpu, subject to finalizing the permitting process and approvals of the boards of both Newcrest and Harmony Gold, and progress toward signing a mining development contract, which is a prerequisite to granting a special mining lease. The timing for completing the discussions is uncertain and there is no assurance of the outcomes.

Changes in the laws, regulations and policies described above, or to the manner in which they are interpreted or applied to Newcrest, may also adversely impact Newcrest’s ability to extend the Lihir special mining lease upon its expiration in 2035.

Newcrest’s operations at Red Chris and Brucejack in British Columbia, Canada are subject to political and regulatory risks and other uncertainties.

Newcrest holds a 70% interest in the Red Chris operation (“Red Chris”), which comprises an open pit mine that produces gold, copper and silver concentrate, located in British Columbia, Canada. Newcrest’s Brucejack operation (“Brucejack”), which comprises an underground mine that produces gold/silver doré and flotation concentrate and hosts the Valley of the Kings high-grade gold deposit, is also located in British Columbia, Canada. In British Columbia, as well as in Canada more generally, the nature and extent of Indigenous rights and title remains the subject of active debate, claims and litigation. First Nations in British Columbia have made claims in respect of Indigenous rights and title to substantial portions of land and water in the province. Some of these claims are made outside of treaty and other processes. The effect of such claims on any particular area of land will not be determinable until the exact nature of historical use, occupancy and rights to such property have been clarified, whether by a decision of the Canadian courts or definition in a treaty or otherwise. First Nations in British Columbia are seeking settlements with respect to these claims, including compensation from governments, and are seeking rights to regulate activities by companies within their traditional territories. The effect of these claims cannot be estimated at this time. The federal and provincial governments in Canada have been seeking to negotiate settlements with respective groups throughout British Columbia in order to resolve many of these claims. Although none of these claims have had material adverse impacts on Red Chris or Brucejack, the issues surrounding Indigenous title and rights remain ongoing.

In addition, the government of British Columbia has adopted the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (2019) to implement the UNDRIP in British Columbia. The legislation commits to systematically review the province’s laws for alignment with UNDRIP principles, while also encouraging new agreements with Indigenous groups that are intended to address outstanding governance questions around the nature of Indigenous rights and title interests in British Columbia.

On June 15, 2021, the province of British Columbia was directed to negotiate an agreement with the Tahltan Central Government (the “TCG”) of the Tahltan Nation with respect to Red Chris, which agreement would require that decisions under the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Act be exercised either jointly by the province of British Columbia and the TCG or by the province of British Columbia, subject to the prior informed consent of the TCG. Decisions under the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Act will be required for the construction and operation of a block cave mine at Red Chris. A consent agreement or process is not yet in place and the impacts of such an agreement or process on the permitting for the proposed development and operation of the Red Chris block cave mine are therefore currently unknown.

Additionally, several First Nations in British Columbia have recently launched challenges against the constitutionality of the “free entry” mineral staking regime in the province and the government of British Columbia pledged to reform the Mineral Tenure Act, which governs the acquisition and holding of mineral tenures in British Columbia, in consultation with First Nations and First Nation organizations. On September 26, 2023, the Supreme Court of British Columbia held that the province of British Columbia has a duty to consult Indigenous groups when registering mineral claims under the Mineral Tenure Act within their traditional territories. The court suspended its holding for 18 months to facilitate the establishment of a mineral claims regime that allows for consultation with Indigenous groups or for the government to amend the Mineral Tenure Act, if necessary. The impacts of these developments on the acquisition and renewal of mineral tenures in British Columbia are not yet known.

Legal proceedings, investigations, regulatory actions and disputes could expose Newcrest to significant liabilities and materially adversely affect its operating results and financial condition.

Legal proceedings, investigations, regulatory actions and disputes (including tax audits and disputes) could have a material adverse effect on Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition. Newcrest engages in activities that may expose it to legal proceedings, investigations, regulatory actions and disputes in the ordinary course of its business, including in relation to personal injury and wrongful death claims, actual or potential impacts to the environment, labor and landowner disputes, as well as commercial disputes with customers, suppliers and service providers. Newcrest may also be found liable for the wrongful acts or omissions of its contractors or service providers. Additionally, the tax authorities in the jurisdictions in which Newcrest operates could dispute tax positions held by it based on changes in law, jurisprudence, policy or interpretation. Regardless of the ultimate outcome of such proceedings, investigations and disputes, and whether involving regulatory action or civil or criminal claims, there may be a material adverse impact on Newcrest as a result of the associated costs (some of which may not be recoverable) and the impact on management resources.

Newcrest evaluates the litigation claims and legal proceedings to which it or its businesses are a party to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, if any, Newcrest establishes provisions and discloses the relevant litigation claims or legal proceedings as appropriate, including in the notes to the Newcrest’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS including interpretations as issued by the IASB, and the notes thereto (collectively, the “Newcrest Consolidated Financial Statements”). These assessments and estimates are based on the information available to management at the time and involve significant management judgment. Adverse outcomes in such legal proceedings in excess of the amounts that Newcrest has provided for, or changes in management’s evaluations or predictions about the proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

The New South Wales Resources Regulator is investigating two safety incidents at Cadia, in response to a serious injury that occurred to a team member from one of Cadia’s contracting partners in June 2023, and a separate incident resulting in serious injuries to a team member that occurred in October 2021.

Newcrest faces geotechnical, geothermal and hydrogeological challenges, which could materially adversely impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

Newcrest faces geotechnical, geothermal and hydrogeological challenges, in particular due to a trend toward mining more complex deposits, the use of deeper and larger pits and the use of deep, bulk or selective underground mining techniques. This leads to higher pit walls, more complex underground environments and increased exposure to geotechnical, geothermal and hydrogeological impacts.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties associated with the block cave mining methods applied by Newcrest at its Cadia operation (“Cadia”), which is located in New South Wales, Australia. These risks include a cave not propagating as anticipated, excessive air gaps forming during the cave propagation, unplanned ground movement occurring due to changes in stresses released in the surrounding rock and larger or more frequent mining-induced seismicity than anticipated. Additionally, during cave establishment and propagation, higher levels of seismic activity, and higher likelihood of damage to excavations from seismic events, are expected. This has been observed during the cave establishment phase of Cadia’s Panel Cave 2-3 project and is expected during the establishment of Cadia’s Panel Cave 1-2 project in the coming years. Such seismic events and associated damage may require changes to the mining plan and upgrades to ground support systems, which could take several months. Large seismic events may also occur after cave establishment and propagation and during steady state caving, although the likelihood of this is lower. Excessive water ingress, disturbance and the presence of fine materials may also give rise to unplanned releases of material of varying properties and of water through drawbells. Cadia recorded sudden unplanned releases of both dry fine ore material and wet mud material through drawbells during the year ended June 30, 2023.

In addition, there are a number of risks and uncertainties associated with the application of techniques used in the civil engineering industry to stabilize deep open pit slopes by Newcrest at Lihir. These risks include variation to technical models when compared to actual conditions, performance of reinforcement systems in hot ground and delays in executing the civil works due to lack of experience with these techniques.

The success of Newcrest’s operations depends, in part, on implementing engineering solutions to particular geotechnical, hydrogeological and geothermal conditions. For example, at Newcrest’s underground operations, large vertical shafts need to be excavated in order to provide ventilation to the underground environment, and sometimes these shafts are excavated using unsupported techniques such as raiseboring, whereby the walls of the shafts cannot be supported until the excavation is completed. If adverse and unexpected geotechnical and hydrogeological conditions are encountered, the shaft walls may become unstable. To prevent this type of incident occurring, thorough geotechnical and hydrogeological investigations and stability assessments are required and, if needed, alternate excavation locations or techniques need to be implemented. One such shaft wall failure incident occurred at Cadia in July 2022, resulting in the need to abandon and backfill a shaft shortly after the completion of excavation to prevent further unravelling of the shaft wall and potential interruptions to other operations.

In addition, preconditioning techniques need to be implemented at Cadia to reduce the magnitude of large seismic events and reduce the risk associated with airblast. At Cadia and Telfer, ground support systems need to be designed and installed to contain potential energy release that may result from a seismic event. At Cadia, semi-autonomous equipment is used due to the safety risk associated with any unplanned release of material, including mud and dry fine ore, from the drawpoints. Significant removal of both groundwater and sea water inflow and geothermal control is required at Lihir before and during mining. Also at Lihir, equipment with reinforced windows and remote controlled equipment is required to mitigate the impact of geysers and geothermal outburst, and blasting of outburst prone areas is required to reduce frequency and severity of outburst events.

A failure to safely resolve any unexpected problems relating to these conditions at a commercially reasonable cost may result in damage to infrastructure or equipment or injury to personnel and may adversely impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial position.

Newcrest’s operations may be materially adversely affected by challenges to operating conditions and natural disasters.

Some of Newcrest’s operations may also experience challenges to operating conditions, such as inundation, inrush of water or other materials, airblast and those relating to elevated temperatures (including management and discharge of hot water encountered in the underground workings). These risks could result in damage to, or destruction of, mineral properties, production facilities, equipment or other properties, personal injury or death of employees or third parties, environmental damage, community outrage, delays in mining, increased production costs, monetary losses and legal liability.

Newcrest may also be subject to risks associated with a natural disaster, which include risk of tsunami, wildfires, mine flooding, geysers and outbursts, coastal erosion and landslides at Lihir, cyclones and flooding at Telfer, flooding and drought conditions at Cadia, avalanches and landslides at Brucejack and landslides at Red Chris. In addition, seismic activity may impact Newcrest’s operations that are located in seismically active areas. This includes Cadia, which is subject to risks of earthquakes, and Lihir which is

subject to risks of tidal surge and tsunamis. For instance, a large seismic event in April 2017 impacted Cadia resulting in a temporary suspension of operations.

Newcrest maintains a range of insurance policies. However, Newcrest’s insurance policies do not cover all actual or potential risks associated with its business. Newcrest may also elect not to insure or to self-insure against certain risks in certain circumstances. The occurrence of events for which Newcrest is not insured or for which insurance is inadequate may adversely affect Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

Newcrest’s operations involve a high degree of risk, including hazards related to the use of explosives and hazardous chemicals and critical equipment failure.

Newcrest’s operations are subject to risks associated with the transportation, storage, handling and use of explosives and hazardous chemicals. These include unplanned detonation of explosives and catastrophic release of hazardous chemicals (for example, due to vessel rupture resulting in an explosion or toxic gas release). Critical equipment related risks that apply at all Newcrest sites include for example, mill failure arising from catastrophic failure of a component, or unavailability of mine haul fleet. Other critical equipment related risks may be site specific; for example, impacts on asset integrity at Lihir due to the proximity of the mine to a corrosive marine environment. The occurrence of such catastrophic events may result in work stoppages, damage to or destruction of mines and other producing facilities, damage to or loss of life and property, environmental damage and legal liability for any or all damage or loss and may adversely affect Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

Newcrest is subject to a range of climate change risks.

Newcrest is subject to a range of climate change risks related to the transition to a lower-carbon economy, including increased climate change-related regulation and requirements, uncertainties regarding the development and availability of low-carbon technologies and the cost of carbon pricing, reputational risks, increased capital costs as well as cost of inputs, energy and raw materials, reduced availability of equipment and raw materials supply and inability to access external funding and insurance. For example, in Australia, as of July 2023, large industrial emitters like Newcrest are subject under the Australian Federal Government Safeguard Mechanism to progressive regulatory limitations on greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions at covered facilities, which currently only include Telfer, which require Newcrest to achieve GHG emissions reductions from its operations or to purchase and surrender carbon credits at market prices for GHG emissions above permitted levels. In addition, in British Columbia, Canada, a carbon tax on carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide equivalent emissions applies for operations at Brucejack and Red Chris.

Newcrest is also subject to physical risks related to climate change, including the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme heat, wildfires, changes in rainfall patterns, flood, snow storms, water scarcity and extreme weather events that may adversely impact Newcrest’s operations. Physical risks related to climate change may exacerbate the risks associated with natural disasters that may impact Newcrest, which include risk of tsunami, wildfires, mine flooding, geysers and outbursts, coastal erosion and landslides at Lihir, cyclones and flooding at Telfer, flooding and drought conditions at Cadia, avalanches and landslides at Brucejack and landslides at Red Chris. In particular, the effects of changes in rainfall patterns and intensities, water shortages and changing storm patterns have from time to time adversely impacted, and may in the future adversely impact, the cost, production levels and financial performance of Newcrest’s operations. For example, in fiscal year 2023, Lihir’s operating and financial performance was impacted by lower feed grade reflecting a higher proportion of low grade expit material being processed in the second half of this year, following extreme rainfall that limited pit access and caused materials handling issues at the mine crusher. This followed prolonged drought conditions across the province of New Ireland in PNG, in which Lihir is located, which had resulted in limited raw water supply to Lihir. In 2019, Cadia experienced droughts, which resulted in temporary process plant water shortages and lower processed volumes. Floods and wildfires have also occurred near Cadia, Telfer and Red Chris in recent years. Brucejack’s glacial access road may be subject to a risk of thawing due to the potential for an increase in average temperatures, which may be related to climate change.

In the future, prolonged drought conditions, or insufficient rainfall to support Newcrest’s future water demands in relation to its sites and operations, could adversely affect production and its ability to develop or expand projects and operations. Conversely, some of Newcrest’s sites and operations have been, and may in the future be, subject from time to time to cyclones, severe storms and high rainfall events leading to periodic interruption of operations, flooding and associated damage. This has resulted, and may in the future result in, delays to or loss of production and development of some of Newcrest’s sites, projects or operations.

In May 2021, Newcrest set a goal to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050, which relates to its Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This is in addition to Newcrest’s announcement in June 2019 of a 30% reduction target for Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity per tonne of ore milled by 2030 against a 2018 baseline. Any failure or perceived failure by Newcrest to achieve, or accurately report on, its current or future GHG reduction and net zero targets could harm Newcrest’s reputation, result in negative investor or community sentiment and have a material adverse impact on Newcrest’s competitive position, operating results and financial condition.

Newcrest is subject to risks relating to the refining, transportation, processing and marketing of gold doré and mineral concentrates.

Newcrest’s operations produce gold doré, which is delivered to third party refineries for refining into gold and silver bullion. The refining activity is subject to risks such as penalties incurred from delivering gold doré that does not meet the contractual specifications, deficient quality of the refinery process, theft and refinery disruption, including through unplanned outages. Additionally,

Table of Contents

Newcrest is subject to risks associated with the transportation of gold doré, including fluctuating transportation charges, delays in delivery of shipments, theft, terrorism, geopolitical tensions and border closures and adverse weather conditions.

Newcrest’s operations also produce mineral concentrates which are transported by ocean vessels to smelters, located predominantly in Asia. The smelting activity is subject to risks including lower realized prices due to differences between the assay methods used by Newcrest and its customers to determine the value of Newcrest’s mineral concentrates, losses during the smelting process, disruption at the operations of smelters and fluctuating smelter charges. Additionally, Newcrest is subject to risks associated with the transportation of mineral concentrates by ocean vessels, including fluctuating transportation charges, delays in delivery of shipments, terrorism, port congestion, loss of or reduced access to export ports, adverse weather conditions, geopolitical tensions and border closures and environmental liabilities in the event of an accident or spill. Further, the quality of mineral concentrates, including the presence of impurities and deleterious substances, is subject to restrictions on import, which vary across jurisdictions, and may impact the ability to sell, or realize the desired price for, the mineral concentrate.

All sales of gold doré and mineral concentrates are subject to analytical specifications contained in Newcrest’s sales and refining agreements. The production of gold doré and mineral concentrates is subject to variability in grades due to a number of factors including ore feed variability. The actual specification of gold doré and mineral concentrates may not meet contractual specifications, which may result in adjustments to treatment and refining charges, decreased metals payability or incurrence of impurity penalties with respect to any affected shipment or delivery. These consequences may impact Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition in the future.

Union activities and labor and employment regulations and matters could materially adversely affect Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition.

In a number of jurisdictions where Newcrest has mining and related interests, there are local requirements, contractual obligations and expectations regarding the extent to which local and national persons and businesses are directly engaged in mining and related activities, which may result in disruptions to Newcrest’s activities where relevant requirements, obligations or expectations are not met.

Unions are present and/or have a legal right to represent eligible employees at Cadia, which is located in New South Wales, Australia, Telfer, which is located in Western Australia, and Brucejack and Red Chris, which are located in British Columbia, Canada. Red Chris has a unionized workforce and has a collective agreement in place but for one provision, which Newcrest and the union are resolving by way of an arbitration process. There are existing employee enterprise bargaining agreements in place across its Australian operations. In the event that new agreements cannot be reached prior to the nominal expiry of the existing arrangements, under Australian legislation, employees may seek to take protected industrial action. The employee enterprise bargaining agreements pursuant to which the majority of operational employees at Cadia and Telfer are employed will expire in 2025 and 2024, respectively. If protected industrial action is taken, Newcrest’s operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.

At Newmont, safety is a core value, and we strive for superior performance. Our health and safety management system, which includes detailed standards and procedures for safe production, addresses topics such as employee training, risk management, workplace inspection, emergency response, accident investigation and program auditing. In addition to strong leadership and involvement from all levels of the organization, these programs and procedures form the cornerstone of safety at Newmont, ensuring that employees are provided a safe and healthy environment and are intended to reduce workplace accidents, incidents and losses, comply with all mining-related regulations and provide support for both regulators and the industry to improve mine safety.

Table of Contents

In addition, we have established our “Rapid Response” crisis management process to mitigate and prevent the escalation of adverse consequences if existing risk management controls fail, particularly if an incident may have the potential to seriously impact the safety of employees, the community or the environment. This process provides appropriate support to an affected site to complement their technical response to an incident, so as to reduce the impact by considering the environmental, strategic, legal, financial and public image aspects of the incident, to ensure communications are being carried out in accordance with legal and ethical requirements and to identify actions in addition to those addressing the immediate hazards.

The health and safety of our people and our host communities is paramount. This is why Newmont continues to sustain robust controls at our operations and offices globally.

The operation of our U.S. based mine is subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”). MSHA inspects our mine on a regular basis and issues various citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act. Following passage of The Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006, MSHA significantly increased the numbers of citations and orders charged against mining operations. The dollar penalties assessed for citations issued has also increased in recent years.

Newmont is required to report certain 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, and that required information is included in Exhibit 95 and is incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report. It is noted that the Nevada mines owned by Nevada Gold Mines LLC, a joint venture between the Company (38.5%) and Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) (61.5%), are not included in the Company’s Exhibit 95 mine safety disclosure reporting as such sites are operated by our joint venture partner, Barrick.
