Second Quarter 2021 Highlights (dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

•Net income: Delivered Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders of $640 or $0.80 per diluted share, an increase of $228 from the prior-year quarter primarily due to higher sales volumes due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, higher realized metal prices in 2021, and a decrease in care and maintenance costs partially offset by lower gains on marketable and other equity securities in the current year and higher income tax expense.

•Adjusted net income: Delivered Adjusted net income of $670 or $0.83 per diluted share, an increase of $0.51 per diluted share from the prior-year quarter (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).

•Adjusted EBITDA: Generated $1,591 in Adjusted EBITDA, an increase of 62% from the prior-year quarter (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).

•Cash Flow: Reported Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations of $1,834 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of 14% from the prior year, and free cash flow of $1,020 (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).

•Portfolio improvements: Acquired the remaining 85.1% ownership of GT Gold Corporation; approved full funding of the Ahafo North project in July 2021.

•Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG"): Launched inaugural Climate Strategy Report outlining pathways to achieving climate targets; published annual sustainability report providing a transparent view of ESG performance.

•Attributable gold production: Produced 1.4 million ounces of gold, an increase of 15% over the prior-year quarter, primarily due to COVID-19 impacts on operations in prior year.

•Financial strength: Ended the quarter with $4.6 billion of consolidated cash and approximately $7.6 billion of liquidity; reduced $550 of debt outstanding with available cash; completed $134 of settled share repurchases from $1 billion buyback program; declared dividend for the second quarter of $0.55, an increase of 120% over the prior-year quarter.

Our global project pipeline

Newmont’s capital-efficient project pipeline supports stable production with improving margins and mine life. Our near-term development capital projects are presented below. Additional projects represent incremental improvements to production and cost guidance.

Ahafo North, Africa. The Board of Directors approved full funding for the Ahafo North project in July 2021. This project will deliver value through the open pit mining and processing of over three million ounces of gold over a 13-year mine life. The project is expected to add between 275,000 and 325,000 ounces per year for the first five years. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $750 and $850 with a construction completion date in the second half of 2023 and commercial production in early 2024.

Tanami Expansion 2, Australia. This project secures Tanami’s future as a long-life, low cost producer with potential to extend mine life to 2040 through the addition of a hoisting shaft and supporting infrastructure to achieve higher production and provide a platform for future growth. The expansion is expected to increase average annual gold production by approximately 150,000 to 200,000 ounces per year for the first five years beginning in 2024, and is expected to reduce operating costs by approximately 10 percent. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $850 and $950 with a commercial production date in the first half of 2024. Development capital costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $195, of which $36 related to the second quarter of 2021.

We manage our wider project portfolio to maintain flexibility to address the development risks associated with our projects including permitting, local community and government support, engineering and procurement availability, technical issues, escalating costs and other associated risks that could adversely impact the timing and costs of certain opportunities.

COVID-19 Update

An outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. COVID-19 has since spread worldwide, posing public health risks across the globe and has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and workforce participation and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including a widely available vaccine in each of the countries where we operate, the duration and severity of the pandemic and related restrictions, all of which continue to be uncertain and cannot be predicted.

In April 2020, we established the Newmont Global Community Support Fund, a $20 fund to help host communities, governments and employees combat the COVID-19 pandemic, of which approximately $13 has been distributed through June 30, 2021. The fund is designed to focus on employee and community health, food security and local economic resilience through partnerships

Table of Contents

with local governments, medical institutions, charities and non-governmental organizations to address the greatest needs with long-term resiliency and future community development in mind.

We have mobilized a COVID vaccine working group with representatives from across the globe. Newmont views vaccination as critical in the fight against COVID-19 and actively encourages our workforce to get vaccinated as they become eligible. We are working to support authorities, through our Global Community Support Fund, to improve the availability and deployment of vaccines to our workforce and host communities.

Impact on business and operations

Our operations have been affected by a range of external factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not within our control. For example, in the first half of 2020, we temporarily placed Musselwhite and Éléonore in Canada, Peñasquito in Mexico, Yanacocha in Peru and Cerro Negro in Argentina into care and maintenance with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, with the exception of Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro continues to focus on returning operations to full capacity while managing ongoing COVID-related impacts. Tanami was temporarily placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021, in close coordination with the Australian government, to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts. As of July 22, 2021, Tanami operations have made strong progress in ramping back up to full capacity. Additionally, we continue to incur COVID-19 specific costs as a result of actions taken to protect against the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, COVID-19 specific costs incurred totaled $20 and $33, respectively.

For a discussion of the precautions we are taking to protect our workforce and nearby communities, while also taking steps to preserve the long-term value of our business, refer to "Health and Safety" within Part I, Item 1, Business on our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 18, 2021. For a discussion of COVID-19 related risks to the business, see Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors on our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 18, 2021.

Additionally, refer to "Consolidated Financial Results", "Results of Consolidated Operations", and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” within Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of this report for additional information about the considerations of COVID-19 on our business and operations.

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” or the “Company”) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including 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, 2020 filed on February 18, 2021 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 United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.

References to “C$” refer to Canadian currency.

On May 17, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 85.1% of GT Gold Corporation (“GT Gold”) for cash consideration, including related transaction costs, of $326. The acquisition, deemed to be an asset acquisition under U.S. GAAP, resulted in total consideration of $378, including non-cash consideration of $52. The non-cash consideration represents the fair value of the 14.9% GT Gold investment held by the Company prior to the acquisition and previously accounted for as marketable equity securities. The total consideration paid was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, which primarily consisted of mineral interests of $590 and a related deferred tax liability of $211.

In March 2020, the Company sold the Red Lake complex, previously included as part of the Company’s North America segment. As the sale was completed in the first quarter of 2020, there are no results for Red Lake for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and the three months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Risks and Uncertainties

As a global mining company, the Company’s revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on prevailing metal prices, primarily for gold, but also for copper, silver, lead and zinc. Historically, the commodity markets have been very volatile, and there can be no assurance that commodity prices will not be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in commodity prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and on the quantities of reserves that the Company can economically produce. The carrying value of the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill are particularly sensitive to the outlook for commodity prices. A decline in the Company’s price outlook from current levels could result in material impairment charges related to these assets.

In addition to changes in commodity prices, other factors such as changes in mine plans, increases in costs, geotechnical failures, changes in social, environmental or regulatory requirements, impacts of global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s decision to reprioritize or abandon a development project can adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover its investment in certain assets and result in impairment charges.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. In the first half of 2020, the Company temporarily placed Musselwhite, Éléonore, Yanacocha, Cerro Negro and Peñasquito into care and maintenance with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, with the exception of Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro continues to focus on returning operations to full capacity while managing ongoing COVID-related impacts. Tanami was temporarily placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021, in close coordination with the Australian government, to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions, and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts. As of July 22, 2021, Tanami operations have made strong progress in ramping up to full capacity.

The impact of this pandemic could include placing additional sites into care and maintenance, significant COVID-19 specific costs, volatility in the prices for gold and other metals, logistical challenges shipping our products, delays in product refining and smelting due to restrictions or temporary closures, additional travel restrictions, other supply chain disruptions and workforce interruptions, including loss of life. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19, this could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and could result in material impairment charges to the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commission Rules

Accounting for Income Taxes

In December 2019, Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12 was issued to simplify the accounting for income taxes, eliminate certain exceptions within Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, and clarify certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.

Accounting for Equity Securities, Investments and Certain Forward Contracts and Options

In January 2020, ASU No. 2020-01 was issued which clarifies the interaction in accounting for equity securities under ASC 321, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in ASC 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.

Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses

In May 2020, the SEC finalized its proposed updates to Rule 3-05 within Regulation S-X, Financial statements of businesses acquired or to be acquired, Rule 3-14, Special instructions for real estate operations to be acquired; Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information; and other related rules and forms (the “Rules”). The Rules include amendments, which among other things: revise significance tests used to determine disclosure requirements; require the financial statements of the acquired business to cover only up to the two most recent fiscal years; permit the use of, or reconciliation to, International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in certain circumstances; and amend certain pro forma financial information requirements. The Rules were adopted on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

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. This guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The guidance may be adopted over time as reference rate reform activities occur and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is still completing its evaluation of the impact of ASU 2020-04 and plans to elect optional expedients as reference rate reform activities occur. In January 2021, ASU No. 2021-01 was issued which broadened the scope of ASU No. 2020-04 to include certain derivative instruments. The Company expects neither the guidance nor the subsequent update to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.

NOTE 3 SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has organized its operations into five geographic regions: North America, South America, Australia, Africa and Nevada, which also represent Newmont’s reportable and operating segments. The results of these operating segments are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. As a result, these operating segments represent the Company’s reportable segments. Notwithstanding this structure, the Company internally reports information on a mine-by-mine basis for each mining operation and has chosen to disclose this information 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. Newmont’s business activities that are not considered operating segments are included in Corporate and Other. Although they are not required to be included in this footnote, they are provided for reconciliation purposes.

NOTE 5 RECLAMATION AND REMEDIATION

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.

The Company’s Reclamation and remediation expense consisted of:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020

Remediation balance at June 30,	$	321	$	291

____________________________

(1)The $21 addition is primarily due to revisions to estimated construction costs of the water treatment plant at Midnite Mine.

The current portion of reclamation liabilities was $164 and $164 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was included in Other current liabilities. The current portion of remediation liabilities was $53 and $50 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was included in Other current liabilities. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $3,751 and $3,719, respectively, were accrued for reclamation obligations relating to operating properties and formerly operating properties that have entered the closure phase and have no substantive future economic value and are included in Reclamation and remediation liabilities.

The Company is also involved in several matters concerning environmental remediation obligations associated with former, primarily historic, mining activities. Generally, these matters concern developing and implementing remediation plans at the various

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

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

sites involved. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $321 and $313, respectively, were accrued for such environmental remediation obligations. Depending upon the ultimate resolution of these matters, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the liability for these matters could be as much as 47% greater or 0% lower than the amount accrued at June 30, 2021. These amounts are included in Other current liabilities and Reclamation and remediation liabilities. The amounts accrued are reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes in estimates are recorded in Reclamation and remediation in the period estimates are revised.

Included in Other non-current assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are $56 and $56 respectively, of non-current restricted cash held for purposes of settling reclamation and remediation obligations. Of the amounts at June 30, 2021, $48 was related to the Ahafo and Akyem mines in Ghana, Africa and $6 related to NGM in Nevada, United States. Of the amounts at December 31, 2020, $48 was related to the Ahafo and Akyem mines in Ghana, Africa, $6 related to NGM in Nevada, United States and $2 was related to the Midnite (Dawn) mine site in Washington, United States.

Included in Other non-current assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $38 and $38, respectively, of non-current restricted investments, which are legally pledged for purposes of settling reclamation and remediation obligations. Of the amounts at June 30, 2021, $14 is related to the Midnite mine and Dawn mill sites and $24 is related to San Jose Reservoir. Of the amounts at December 31, 2020, $14 is related to the Midnite mine and Dawn mill sites and $24 is related to San Jose Reservoir.

Refer to Notes 19 and 22 for further discussion of reclamation and remediation matters.

NOTE 13 NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income attributable to Newmont common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed similarly, except that weighted average common shares is increased to reflect all dilutive instruments, including employee stock awards. The dilutive effects of Newmont’s dilutive securities are calculated using the treasury stock method.

NOTE 14 FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING

Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

The following tables set forth the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

____________________________

(1)Marketable equity securities includes warrants reported in the Maverix Metals Inc. equity method investment balance of $13 and $14 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(2)Debt is carried at amortized cost. The outstanding carrying value was $5,480 and $6,031 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value measurement of debt was based on an independent third-party pricing source.

The fair values of the derivative instruments in the table above are presented on a net basis. The gross amounts related to the fair value of the derivative instruments above are immaterial. All other fair value disclosures in the above table are presented on a gross basis.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (which includes restricted cash and cash equivalents) are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and are primarily money market securities and U.S. Treasury securities.

The Company’s net trade receivables primarily result from provisional metal concentrate sales, which contain an embedded derivative and are subject to final pricing, are valued using quoted market prices based on forward curves for the particular metal. As the contracts themselves are not traded on an exchange, these receivables are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s marketable and other equity securities without readily determinable fair values primarily consists of the Company’s ownership in MARA and warrants in publicly traded companies. The ownership in MARA is accounted for under the measurement alternative and is classified as a non-recurring Level 3 investment within the fair value hierarchy. Warrants are valued using a Black-Scholes model using quoted market prices in active markets of the underlying securities. As the contracts themselves are not traded on the exchange, these equity securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s restricted marketable debt securities are primarily U.S. government issued bonds and international bonds. The Company’s South American debt securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, using published market prices of actively traded securities. The Company’s North American debt securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using pricing models which are based on prices of similar, actively traded securities.

The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets is determined using discounted cash flow models. The contingent consideration assets consist of financial instruments that meet the definition of a derivative, but are not designated for hedge accounting under ASC 815. The assets are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Increases in the discount rate will result in a decrease in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets.

The Company’s derivative instruments consist of fixed forward contracts. These derivative instruments are valued using pricing models, and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, forward curves, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Company’s derivatives trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s liability-classified stock-based compensation awards consist of cash-settled Goldcorp share awards which become payable in cash on the vesting date. These awards are valued each reporting period based on the quoted Newmont stock price. As the awards themselves are not traded on the exchange, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

During the third quarter 2020, the Company purchased the Holt option from Kirkland, which resulted in a downward revision to future production scenarios of the Holt mine to nil. 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 at the Holt mine. Kirkland has the right to assume the Company’s Holt royalty obligation at any time, in which case the Holt option would terminate. The net effect of the Holt option structure is that Kirkland cannot resume operations and process minerals subject to the Holt royalty obligation unless it also assumes the obligation.

The Company’s marketable debt securities for the period ended June 30, 2020, consisted of an unrestricted convertible debenture with Continental (the “Continental Convertible Debt”). The estimated fair value of the host debt instrument was determined using a discounted cash flow model, with an internally derived discount rate. It has been classified within Level 3 of the fair value

Per the amendment, the expiration date of the credit facility was extended to March 30, 2026. The interest rate on the credit facility was amended to include a margin adjustment based on the Company’s environment, social and governance (“ESG”) scores. The maximum adjustment resulting from the ESG scores is plus or minus 0.05%. Facility fees vary based on the credit ratings of the Company’s senior, uncollateralized, non-current debt. There were no material changes to the debt covenants under the amendment. At June 30, 2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the facility.

In April 2021, the Company fully redeemed all of the outstanding 3.625% Senior Notes due June 2021 (“2021 Notes”).

NOTE 22 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 South America reportable segment. The Newmont Ghana Gold and Newmont Golden Ridge matters relate to the Africa reportable segment. The Mexico tax matters relate to the North America reportable segment.

Environmental Matters

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

Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned

In February 2017, Yanacocha submitted a modification to its previously approved compliance achievement plan to the Mining Ministry (“MINEM”). The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021 and is now in the process of updating its compliance achievement plan to address these comments. 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. Consequently, part of the Company response to MINEM will include a request for an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations. In the event that MINEM does not grant Yanacocha an extension of the previously authorized timeline for, and agree to, the updated compliance achievement plan, fines and penalties relating to non-compliance may result beyond January 2024.

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 currently 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 studies are ongoing and could result in revisions to our reclamation plan and potential material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction and water treatment operating costs associated with the closure plan.

As these activities are progressed, it could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha. The Company will continue to advance and update the Yanacocha reclamation plan and expects to further refine the associated cost estimates in the second half of this year in connection with additional study work currently being completed.

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 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“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 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 a lump sum payment of $42, which Newmont classified as restricted assets with interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented. In 2016, Newmont completed the remedial design process (with the exception of the new water treatment plant (“WTP”), which was awaiting the approval of the new National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit). Subsequently, the new NPDES permit was received in 2017 and the WTP design commenced in 2018. The EPA is assessing the WTP design. Newmont continues to manage the remediation project during the 2021 construction season.

The Dawn mill site is regulated by the Washington Department of Health and is in the process of being closed. 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 activity will consist primarily of addressing groundwater issues and evaporating the remaining balance of process water on site.

The remediation liability for the Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site is approximately $183 at June 30, 2021.

Other Legal Matters

Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned

Administrative Actions. The Peruvian government agency responsible for environmental evaluation and inspection, Organismo Evaluación y Fiscalización Ambiental (“OEFA”), conducts periodic reviews of the Yanacocha site. From 2011 to the second quarter of 2021, OEFA issued notices of alleged violations of OEFA standards to Yanacocha and Conga relating to past inspections. The water authority that is in charge of supervising the proper water administration has also issued notices of alleged regulatory violations in previous years. The experience with OEFA and the water authority is that in the case of a finding of violation, remedial action is often the outcome rather than a significant fine. The alleged OEFA violations currently active range from zero to 108.11 units and the water authority alleged violations range from zero to 10 units, with each unit having a potential fine equivalent to approximately $.001100 based on current exchange rates, with a total potential fine amount for outstanding matters of $— to $0.13. Yanacocha is responding to all notices of alleged violations, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the agency allegations.

Conga Project Constitutional Claim. On October 18, 2012, Marco Antonio Arana Zegarra filed a constitutional claim against the Ministry of Energy and Mines and Yanacocha requesting the Court to order the suspension of the Conga project as well as to declare not applicable the October 27, 2010, directorial resolution approving the Conga project Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”). On October 23, 2012, a Cajamarca judge dismissed the claims based on formal grounds finding that: (i) plaintiffs had not exhausted previous administrative proceedings; (ii) the directorial resolution approving the Conga EIA is valid, and was not challenged when issued in the administrative proceedings; (iii) there was inadequate evidence to conclude that the Conga project is a threat to the constitutional right of living in an adequate environment; and (iv) the directorial resolution approving the Conga project EIA does not guarantee that the Conga project will proceed, so there was no imminent threat to be addressed by the Court. The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal of the case. The Civil Court of the Superior Court of Cajamarca confirmed the above mentioned resolution and the plaintiff presented an appeal. On March 13, 2015, the Constitutional Court published its ruling stating that the case should be sent back to the first court with an order to formally admit the case and start the judicial process in order to review the claim and the proofs presented by the plaintiff. Yanacocha has answered the claim. Neither the Company nor Yanacocha can reasonably predict the outcome of this litigation.

Yanacocha Tax Dispute. In 2000, Yanacocha paid Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. a total of $29 to assume their respective contractual positions in mining concession agreements with Chaupiloma Dos de Cajamarca S.M.R.L. The contractual rights allowed Yanacocha the opportunity to conduct exploration on the concessions, but were not a purchase of the concessions. The tax authority alleged that the payments to Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. were acquisitions of mining concessions requiring the amortization of the amounts under the Peru Mining Law over the life of the mine. Yanacocha expensed the amounts at issue in the initial year since the payments were not for the acquisition of a concession but rather these expenses represented the payment of an intangible and therefore, were amortizable in a single year or proportionally for up to ten years according to Income Tax Law. In 2010, the tax court in Peru ruled in favor of Yanacocha and the tax authority appealed the issue to the judiciary. The first appellate court confirmed the ruling of the tax court in favor of Yanacocha. However, in November 2015, a Superior Court in Peru made an appellate decision overturning the two prior findings in favor of Yanacocha. Yanacocha appealed the Superior Court ruling to the Peru Supreme Court. In January 2019, the Peru Supreme Court issued notice that three judges supported the position of the tax authority and two judges supported the position of Yanacocha. Because four votes are required for a final decision, an additional judge was selected to issue a decision and the parties conducted oral arguments in April 2019. In February 2020, the additional judge ruled in favor of the tax authority, finalizing a decision of the Peru Supreme Court against Yanacocha. As a result of the decision, the company has recognized the amount of $29. However, Yanacocha filed two constitutional actions in 2020 and one additional legal claim in 2021, objecting to potential excessive interest and duplicity of criteria of up to $51, $73 and $69, respectively. In March 2021, in one of the constitutional actions, Yanacocha’s request for an injunction to suspend the collection of interest was denied. The matter was sent back to the tax authority, which issued a resolution with an update of the total amount due of approximately $80. Yanacocha has appealed the tax authority’s resolution and the administrative case is going to be decided by the tax court. It is not possible to fully predict the outcome of this litigation.

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.

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 intends to vigorously defend this matter, 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 that 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 Parliament 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 Parliament 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.

Goldcorp, Inc. 100% Newmont Owned

Shareholder Action. On October 28, 2016 and February 14, 2017, separate proposed class actions were commenced in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice pursuant to the Class Proceedings Act (Ontario) against the Company and certain of its current and former officers. Both statement of claims alleged common law negligent misrepresentation in Goldcorp, Inc.’s public disclosure concerning the Peñasquito mine and also pleaded an intention to seek leave from the Court to proceed with an allegation of statutory misrepresentation pursuant to the secondary market civil liability provisions under the Securities Act (Ontario). By a consent order, the latter lawsuit proceeded, and the former action has been stayed. The active lawsuit purports to be brought on behalf of persons who acquired Goldcorp Inc.’s securities in the secondary market during an alleged class period from October 30, 2014 to August 23, 2016. An amended complaint has been filed in the active lawsuit, which removes the individual defendants, and requests leave of the Court to pursue only the statutory cause of action. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Mexico Tax Matters

Tax Reassessment from Mexican Tax Authority. During 2016, the Mexican Tax Authority issued reassessment notices to several of Goldcorp, Inc.’s Mexican subsidiaries. Topics under dispute generally involve transfer pricing, deductibility of mine stripping costs, and gain recognized on certain asset sales. The Company has made significant progress in reaching resolution with the Mexican Tax Authority on these matters. In the second quarter of 2019, a number of issues were settled, resulting in a $96 payment, which was fully accrued in the financial statements. In the first quarter of 2020, further settlement was reached for an immaterial amount, with dialogue continuing in an effort to resolve the outstanding reassessment. Additionally, the Company continues to work through several audits in which observation letters have been received from the Mexican Tax Authority. The outcome of the remaining disputes is not readily determinable but could have a material impact on the Company. The Company believes that its tax positions are valid and intends to vigorously defend its tax filing positions.

State of Zacatecas’ Ecological Tax. In December 2016, the State of Zacatecas in Mexico approved new environmental taxes that became effective January 1, 2017. Certain operations at the Company’s Peñasquito mine may be subject to these taxes. Payments are due monthly in arrears with the first payment due on February 17, 2017. The Company believes that there is no legal basis for the taxes and filed legal claims challenging their constitutionality and legality on March 9, 2017. Other companies similarly situated also filed legal claims against the taxes. The Mexican federal government also filed a claim before the National Supreme Court against the State of Zacatecas challenging whether the State of Zacatecas had the constitutional authority to implement the taxes. On February 11, 2019, the National Supreme Court of Mexico ruled that the State of Zacatecas has the constitutional authority to implement environmental taxes, and that ruling was not subject to appeal. The Company’s case continued, and although there was an initial ruling in favor of the Company, this ruling was appealed by the local tax authorities. On October 15, 2019, the First Collegiate Circuit Court of the Auxiliary Center of the Eleventh Region reversed the favorable ruling (except with respect to one issue, which was affirmed in the Company’s favor). While the First Collegiate Circuit Court’s ruling is not subject to further appeal and the Company currently has no legal challenges active with the Mexican courts, it is not possible to precisely calculate the environmental taxes given that: (a) the legislation is broadly worded and despite the years of inquiries, the State of Zacatecas has not put forward any guidance on how the tax would be levied; and (b) certain claims by other companies similarly situated are still being resolved by the Supreme Court, the results of which may change the taxes payable by the Company. The Company, along with other companies in the State of Zacatecas, is continuing to meet with governmental authorities to understand how the environmental tax would be levied. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company and the State of Zacatecas reached an agreement in principle for the Company to pay for the taxes in dispute related to tax years 2017-2020, and also arrived at a formula for the payments for tax years 2021-2024, with an agreed-upon basis for the extraction, storage activities, and gas emissions for such years. The agreements have been completed and ratified by the relevant governmental authorities, and total payments of $27 were made in the second quarter of 2021.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

Newmont is from time to time involved in various legal proceedings related to its business. Except in the above described proceedings, management does not believe that adverse decisions in any pending or threatened proceeding or that amounts that may be required to be paid by reason thereof will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In connection with our investment in Galore Creek, Newmont will owe NovaGold Resources Inc. $75 upon the earlier of approval to construct a mine, mill and all related infrastructure for the Galore Creek project or the initiation of construction of a mine, mill or any related infrastructure. The amount due is non-interest bearing. The decision for an approval and commencement of

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“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”). We use certain non-GAAP financial measures in our MD&A. For a detailed description of each of the non-GAAP measures used in this MD&A, please see the discussion under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis.

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, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2021.

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. In 2020, for the sixth year in a row, Newmont was ranked as the mining and metal sector's top gold miner by the SAM S&P 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 environmental, social and governance ("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 United States (“U.S.”), Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia and Ghana.

During the first half of 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak escalated to a global pandemic, which has had varying impacts in the jurisdictions in which we operate. In response, the Company temporarily placed five sites into care and maintenance late in the first quarter of 2020, with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, with the exception of Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro continues to focus on returning operations to full capacity while managing ongoing COVID-related impacts. Tanami was temporarily placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021, in close coordination with the Australian government, to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions, and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts. As of July 22, 2021, Tanami operations have made strong progress in ramping up to full capacity.

Refer to the “Second Quarter 2021 Highlights”, “Results of Consolidated Operations”, “Liquidity and Capital Resources" and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for further information about the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company.

In May 2021, we purchased the remaining common shares of GT Gold Corporation (“GT Gold”) for cash consideration, including related transaction costs, of $326. Refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details regarding this transaction.

In March 2020, we completed the sale of our Red Lake complex in Ontario, Canada, previously included as part of the Company’s North America segment. As the sale was completed on March 31, 2020, results for Red Lake for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are included within the discussion below; there are no results for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 included herein.

For further information on asset sales, see Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

We continue to focus on improving safety and efficiency at our operations, maintaining leading environmental, social and governance 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.

The increase in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to higher sales volumes as a result of certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, higher realized metal prices, and a decrease in care and maintenance costs partially offset by lower unrealized gains on marketable and other equity securities in the current year and higher income tax expense.

The decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to lower Gain on asset and investment sales, net in 2021 due to the sales of Kalgoorlie, Continental Gold, Inc. ("Continental") and Red Lake in 2020 and higher income tax expense partially offset by higher realized metal prices, higher sales volumes due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, and a decrease in care and maintenance costs in the current period.

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

Reclamation and remediation increased by $17 and $25 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, respectively, primarily due to revisions to estimated construction costs of a water treatment plant at the Midnite mine site and higher estimated closure costs related to water management at NGM for the closed Rain site.

Exploration expense increased by $26 and $17 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to increase in various exploration activities in Australia and North America.

Advanced projects, research and development expense increased by $11 and $15 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase compared to the same periods in 2020 were primarily due to increased spend associated with full potential programs.

General and administrative expense decreased by $8 and $8 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to ongoing integration activities related to Newmont Goldcorp transaction and other cost reduction efforts. General and administrative expense as a percentage of Sales was 2.1% and 2.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 3.0% and 2.8% in the same periods in 2020.

Care and maintenance decreased by $123 and $143 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The decrease is due to a reduction of mine sites temporarily placed into care and maintenance or operating at reduced levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 as compared to 2020.

Other expense, net decreased by $9 and $3 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. Refer to Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Gain on asset and investment sales, net for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was in line with the same period in 2020. Gain on asset and investment sales, net decreased by $549 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020. Refer to Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on asset sales and Note 15 for additional information on investment sales.

Other income, net decreased by $148 and $41 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. Refer to Note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest decreased by $10 and $18 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020 due to lower interest rates as a result of the Company's recent debt refinancing transactions and early redemption of the 2021 Notes. Refer to Note 18 for additional information on the redemption.

Income and mining tax expense (benefit) was $341 and $164, and $576 and $141 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 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 United States dollar 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

In the third quarter of 2020, the Nevada legislature passed three resolutions proposing amendments to the Nevada Constitution to modify provisions regarding the Net Proceeds of Minerals tax. During the quarter, the Nevada legislature enacted a new excise tax on revenue from gold and silver sales and as a result will not be making modifications to the Net Proceeds of Minerals tax. See the Nevada Results of Operations for additional information.

Governments in various jurisdictions in which the Company operates passed legislation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the quarter, the statutory Federal tax rate in Argentina was increased from 25% to 35%, effective January 1, 2021. The impact of the rate change on the deferred tax balance has been included in the tax expense.

Equity income (loss) of affiliates increased by $20 and $33 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to an increase in income from the Pueblo Viejo mine.

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)
2021 GEO Price	$	1,200	$	2.75	$	22.00	$	0.90	$	1.05
2020 GEO Price	$	1,200	$	2.75	$	16.00	$	0.95	$	1.20

Our mines continued to operate with robust controls, including heightened levels of health screening and testing to protect both our workforce and the local communities in which we operate. We have adopted a risk-based approach to business travel, are providing flexible and remote working plans for employees and are maintaining effective contact tracing procedures and “social distancing” protocols. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred $20 and $42, respectively, of incremental direct costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, included in Other expense, net, as a result of these and other actions taken to protect our employees and operations, and to support the local communities in which we operate, of which $19 and $40, respectively, are included in All-in sustaining costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $33 and $35, respectively, of incremental direct costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, included in Other expense, net, and were excluded from All-in sustaining costs. All-in sustaining costs is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis. For additional information regarding costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, see Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 2020

Consolidated gold production increased 15% primarily due to Musselwhite, Éléonore and Peñasquito in North America and Cerro Negro in South America being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, and higher ore grade milled and higher mill throughput at Boddington in Australia, partially offset by lower mill availability and lower tons and grades mined at NGM, lower mill throughput and lower ore grade milled at Porcupine in North America and a build-up of in-circuit inventory at Tanami in Australia as the mine was placed under care and maintenance in June 2021 as a result of COVID-19 restrictions.

Consolidated gold equivalent ounces – other metals production increased 120% primarily due to the Peñasquito mine in North America being placed under care and maintenance in the prior year as a result of ongoing COVID-19 restrictions and higher ore grade milled, in addition to higher mill throughput and higher recovery at Boddington in Australia.

Table of Contents

Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold ounce increased 1% primarily due to lower ore grade mined and higher maintenance costs at Porcupine in North America, unfavorable Australian dollar foreign currency exchange rate and higher mill maintenance costs at Tanami in Australia and higher direct operating costs as a result of COVID-19 restrictions and production tax credits received in the prior year at Cerro Negro in South America, partially offset by overall higher gold ounces sold and higher by-product credits. Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold equivalent ounce – other metals increased 13% primarily due to higher concentrate selling expenses at Peñasquito in North America and unfavorable Australian dollar foreign currency exchange rate, higher co-product allocation of costs to copper and higher copper-price driven royalties at Boddington in Australia, partially offset by overall higher gold equivalent ounces – other metals sold.

Depreciation and amortization per consolidated gold ounce decreased 10% primarily due to higher gold ounces sold. Depreciation and amortization per consolidated gold equivalent ounce – other metals decreased 15% primarily due to higher gold equivalent ounces – other metals sold and care and maintenance costs in the prior year.

All-in sustaining costs per consolidated gold ounce decreased 6% primarily due to higher care and maintenance costs in the prior year, partially offset by higher sustaining capital spend. All-in sustaining costs per consolidated gold equivalent ounce – other metals decreased 9% primarily due to lower treatment and refining costs and higher care and maintenance costs in the prior year, partially offset by higher costs applicable to sales per gold equivalent ounce – other metals.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 compared to 2020

Consolidated gold production increased 5% primarily due to Musselwhite, Éléonore and Peñasquito in North America and Cerro Negro in South America being placed under care and maintenance in the prior year or operated at reduced levels as a result of ongoing COVID-19 restrictions, higher ore grade milled and higher mill throughput at Boddington in Australia and higher ore grade milled at Akyem in Africa, partially offset by lower mill availability and lower mill throughput and grades mined at NGM, the ramp down of the mill and lower leach pad production at Yanacocha in South America, the sale of Red Lake in North America and lower mill throughput and lower ore grade milled at Porcupine in North America.

Consolidated gold equivalent ounces – other metals production increased 30% primarily due to higher mill throughput as the Peñasquito mine in North America was put under care and maintenance in the prior year and higher ore grade milled, higher mill throughput and higher recovery at Boddington in Australia.

Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold ounce decreased 2% primarily due to higher gold ounces sold and higher by-product credits, partially offset by higher maintenance costs at Porcupine in North America and higher direct operating costs at Merian in South America. Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold equivalent ounce – other metals increased 1% primarily due to unfavorable Australian dollar foreign currency exchange rate, higher co-product allocation of costs to copper and higher copper-price driven royalties, partially offset by higher gold equivalent ounces - other metals sold and lower maintenance costs at Boddington in Australia.

Depreciation and amortization per consolidated gold ounce decreased 4% primarily due to higher gold ounces sold. Depreciation and amortization per consolidated gold equivalent ounce – other metals decreased 8% primarily due to higher gold equivalent - other metals sold and care and maintenance costs in the prior year.

All-in sustaining costs per consolidated gold ounce decreased 2% primarily due to higher care and maintenance costs in the prior year and lower costs applicable to sales per gold ounce, partially offset by higher sustaining capital spend.

Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce decreased 37% primarily due to higher by-product credits as a result of the timing of silver sale shipments that were previously delayed from the prior year due to COVID-19, higher gold ounces mined and no leach pad inventory adjustments in the current year. Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce increased 2% primarily due to lower gold ounces sold, partially offset by no leach pad inventory adjustments in the current year. All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce decreased 19% primarily due to lower costs applicable to sales per gold ounce and care and maintenance costs in the prior year, partially offset by higher reclamation costs.

Merian, Suriname. Gold production decreased 6% primarily due to lower ore grade milled and a lower draw-down of in-circuit ounces, partially offset by higher mill throughput and recovery. Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce increased 14% primarily due to higher direct operating costs, lower gold ounces sold and higher gold price-driven royalties. Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce increased 15% due to higher amortization rates from asset additions and lower gold ounces sold. All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce increased 16% primarily due to higher costs applicable to sales per gold ounce.

Cerro Negro, Argentina. Gold production increased 35% primarily due to the mine being placed under care and maintenance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020. Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce increased 24% primarily due to higher direct operating costs as a result of COVID-19 restrictions and production tax credits received in the prior year, partially offset by higher gold ounces sold. Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce decreased 22% primarily due to higher gold ounces sold. All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce decreased 4% primarily due to care and maintenance costs in the prior year, partially offset by higher sustaining capital spend and higher costs applicable to sales per gold ounce.

Pueblo Viejo, Dominican Republic. Attributable gold production was in line with the prior year as higher mill throughput was offset by lower ore grade milled and lower recovery.

Nevada Gold Mines. Attributable gold production decreased 13% primarily due to 20% lower production at Carlin as a result of lower availability of the Goldstrike mill and ore blending, 17% lower production at Cortez as a result of lower underground tons and grade mined and 18% lower production at Phoenix as a result of lower ore grades processed, partially offset by 17% higher production at Long Canyon as a result of higher leach grades processed. A mechanical failure in May 2021 resulted in a partial shutdown of the Goldstrike mill at Carlin. The mill is currently expected to return to full capacity in the third quarter of 2021. The mine is currently stockpiling underground ore to be processed once the mill is back to full capacity.

Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce decreased 6% primarily due to 48% lower costs applicable to sales per gold ounce at Phoenix as a result of higher by-product credits from higher copper prices and 53% lower costs applicable to sales at Long Canyon as a result of higher gold ounces sold and a favorable strip ratio, partially offset by 4% higher costs applicable to sales at Carlin as a result of lower gold ounces sold.

Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce decreased 1% primarily due to 13% and 4% higher depreciation and amortization per gold ounce at Carlin and Phoenix, respectively, as a result of lower gold ounces sold and 11% higher depreciation and amortization per ounce at Turquoise Ridge as a result of lower ore grade mined, partially offset by 28% lower depreciation and amortization per gold ounce at Long Canyon as a result of higher gold ounces sold and 13% lower depreciation and amortization per gold ounce at Cortez as a result of no stockpile inventory adjustments.

Nevada Gold Mines. Attributable gold production decreased 10% primarily due to 14% lower production at Carlin as a result of lower availability of the Goldstrike mill and ore blending, 19% lower production at Cortez as a result of lower mill throughput and timing of leach recoveries and 23% lower production at Phoenix as a result of lower mill grades processed, partially offset by 30% higher production at Long Canyon as a result of higher leach tons and grade processed and 5% higher production at Turquoise Ridge as a result of higher underground grades mined.

Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce decreased 2% primarily due to 44% lower costs applicable to sales at Phoenix as a result of higher by-product credits from higher copper prices, 61% lower costs applicable to sales at Long Canyon as a result of higher gold ounces sold and a favorable strip ratio and 3% lower costs applicable to sales at Turquoise Ridge as a result of higher gold ounces sold, partially offset by 3% and 16% higher costs applicable to sales at Carlin and Cortez, respectively, as a result of lower gold ounces sold.

In 2021, the Nevada state legislature passed Assembly Bill 495 (the “Bill”) to enact a new tax on mining companies engaged in the business of extracting gold and silver in the state of Nevada. The Bill imposes a new excise tax on business entities with annual gross revenues over $20, with tax rates ranging from 0.75% to 1.1%. The excise tax will be included in Cost applicable to sales.

Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce increased 2% primarily due to 14% and 7% higher depreciation and amortization per gold ounce at Carlin and Phoenix, respectively, as a result of lower gold ounces sold, partially offset by 34% lower depreciation and amortization per gold ounce at Long Canyon as a result of higher gold ounces sold.

All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce decreased 3% primarily due to 61% lower All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce at Long Canyon as a result of lower costs applicable to sales per gold ounce and lower sustaining capital spend, and 44% lower All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce at Phoenix as a result of lower costs applicable to sales per gold ounce, partially offset by 6% higher All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce at Carlin as a result of higher costs applicable to sales per gold ounce and higher sustaining capital spend and 6% higher All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce at Cortez as a result of higher costs applicable to sales per gold ounce.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

Our foreign operations sell their gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue since gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc are sold throughout the world in U.S. dollars. 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 50% and 39% of Costs applicable to sales were paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, including approximately 18% denominated in the Australian Dollar, 13% denominated in the Canadian Dollar, 12% denominated in the Mexican Peso, 4% denominated in the Argentine Peso, 2% denominated in the Peruvian Sol, 1% denominated in the Surinamese Dollar and a nominal amount denominated in the Ghanaian Cedi in the current quarter. Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations increased Costs applicable to sales by $22 per ounce during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily in Australia. Approximately 51% and 43% of Costs applicable to sales were paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, including approximately 18% denominated in the Australian Dollar, 14% denominated in the Mexican Peso, 13% denominated in the Canadian Dollar, 3% denominated in the Argentine Peso, 2% denominated in the Peruvian Sol, 1% denominated in the Surinamese Dollar and a nominal amount denominated in the Ghanaian Cedi in the current year. Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations increased Costs applicable to sales by $16 per ounce during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily in Australia.

Our Cerro Negro mine, located in Argentina, is a U.S. dollar functional currency entity. Argentina has been considered a hyperinflationary environment with a cumulative inflation rate of over 100% for the last three years. 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 U.S. dollar proceeds from metal sales to the Argentine Peso within five business days from receipt of cash, as well as restricting payments denominated in U.S. dollars, 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 pay principal portions of intercompany debt to the Company. We continue to monitor the foreign currency exposure risk and the limitations of repatriating cash to the United States. Currently, these currency controls are not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Our Merian mine, located in the country of Suriname, is a U.S. dollar functional currency entity. Suriname has experienced significant swings in inflation rates for the last three years. In 2020, Suriname's central bank enacted legislation in an effort to stabilize

Table of Contents

the local currency, which was subsequently repealed by Parliament in 2021. The Surinamese Government has recently taken measures with regard to the repatriation of export earnings and restrictions on imports; however, Newmont and the Republic of Suriname have a Mineral Agreement in place that supersedes such measures. Therefore, we do not expect there to be a current or future impact to our operations or financial statements. Additionally, the central bank of Suriname recently adopted a controlled floating rate system and concurrently announced a significant devaluation of the Surinamese dollar. The majority of Merian’s activity has historically been denominated in U.S. dollars resulting 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 financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Overview

We have a disciplined cash 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 COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, sites could be placed into care and maintenance; transportation industry disruptions could occur, including limitations on shipping produced metals; refineries or smelters could be temporarily closed; our supply chain could be disrupted; or we could incur credit related losses of certain financial assets, which could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. As of June 30, 2021, we believe our available liquidity allows us to manage the near-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

At June 30, 2021, the Company had $4,583 in Cash and cash equivalents, of which $1,539 was held in foreign subsidiaries and is primarily held in U.S. dollar denominated accounts with the remainder in foreign currencies readily convertible to U.S. dollars. Certain foreign currencies are subject to regulatory restrictions. See Foreign Currency Exchange Rates above for additional information. At June 30, 2021, $409 of the consolidated cash and cash equivalents was attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily related to our Peru and Suriname operations, which is being held locally to fund those operations. At June 30, 2021, $1,191 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents ($794 attributable to Newmont) 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 that our liquidity and capital resources are adequate to fund our operations and corporate activities.

We believe our existing consolidated Cash and cash equivalents, 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, pay dividends and meet other liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. At June 30, 2021, our borrowing capacity on our revolving credit facility was $3,000 and we had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. We continue to remain compliant with covenants and there have been no impacts to-date, nor do we anticipate any negative impacts from COVID-19, on our ability to access funds available on this facility.

Our financial position was as follows:


	At June 30, 2021		At December 31, 2020
Debt	$	5,480	$	6,031
Lease and other financing obligations	677		671

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations was $1,834 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $227 from the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to higher average realized metal prices partially offset by an increase in tax payments and an increase in receivables related to timing.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $(1,127) during the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease in cash provided of $1,966 from the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to proceeds from the sale of the Kalgoorlie and Red Lake operations in 2020, the acquisition of GT Gold in 2021, higher capital expenditures in 2021 and proceeds from the sale of our investment in Continental Gold in 2020.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(1,666) during the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase in cash used of $789 from the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in dividends paid to stockholders and higher net repayments of debt in 2021, partially offset by lower repurchases of common stock in 2021.

Capital Resources

In July 2021, the Board declared a dividend of $0.55 per share on second quarter 2021 earnings, determined under the dividend framework established and approved by the Board in 2020 to share incremental free cash flow with shareholders at higher gold prices. The framework returns 40 to 60 percent of incremental attributable free cash flow to shareholders that is generated above a $1,200 per ounce gold price. 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, COVID-19 impacts and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.

In January 2021, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program for up to $1 billion of common stock to be repurchased in the next 18 months. Through June 30, 2021, we have executed and settled trades totaling $134 of common stock repurchases under the plan.

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. For example, the Board of Directors approved full funding for the Ahafo North project in Africa in July 2021. Total capital spend on the Ahafo North project is expected to range from $750 to $850, which we expect to fund from existing liquidity and future operating cash flows. 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. In addition, the Company continues to evaluate strategic priorities and deployment of capital to projects in the pipeline to ensure it executes on its capital priorities and provides long term value to shareholders. 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.

Debt

Debt and Corporate Revolving Credit Facilities. There were no material changes to our debt and corporate revolving credit facilities since December 31, 2020, except as noted in Note 18 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

As part of the amended terms to the revolving credit agreement, the interest rate includes a margin adjustment based on the Company’s ESG scores. The ESG scores are comprised of (i) the S&P Global ESG Score defined per the amendment as the overall score in respect of ESG factors, as calculated and assigned to the Company from time to time by S&P Global Inc. and (ii) MSCI ESG Rating defined per the amendment as the overall score in respect of ESG factors, as calculated and assigned to the Borrower from time to time by MSCI ESG Research LLC, a division of MSCI Inc. The maximum adjustment resulting from the ESG scores is plus or minus 0.05% and is not expected to have a material impact on Interest expense, net of capitalized interest.

Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, for information regarding our debt and corporate revolving credit facilities.

Debt Covenants. There were no material changes to our debt covenants. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, for information regarding our debt covenants.

At June 30, 2021, 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, of 1933, as amended, which enables us to issue an indeterminate number or amount of common stock, preferred stock,

Table of Contents

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 $821 and $837 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. All noncontrolling interests relate to non-guarantor subsidiaries.

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 38.5% interest in NGM and 51.35% interest in Yanacocha. For further information regarding these and our other operations, see Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Results of Consolidated Operations.

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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.


	Obligor Group				Newmont USA
	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020		June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Current intercompany assets	$	12,329	$	11,641	$	5,107	$	4,882
Non-current intercompany assets	$	2,123	$	2,120	$	291	$	282
Current intercompany liabilities	$	10,610	$	8,840	$	1,922	$	1,934
Current external debt	$	491	$	473	$	—	$	—

Non-current external debt	$	4,891	$	5,382	$	—	$	—

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 June 30, 2021, Newmont USA had approximately $5,382 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 June 30, 2021, 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 June 30, 2021, (i) Newmont’s total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $6,157, none of which was secured (other than $677 of Lease and other financing obligations), and (ii) Newmont’s non-guarantor subsidiaries had $5,952 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, see Note 18 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2021, there have been no material changes, outside the ordinary course of business, in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2020. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020 for information regarding our contractual obligations.

Environmental

Our mining and exploration activities are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. We perform a comprehensive review of our reclamation and remediation liabilities annually and review changes in facts and circumstances associated with these obligations at least quarterly.

In early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards. The Company is currently 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. These studies are ongoing and could result in revisions to our reclamation plan and potential material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction and water treatment operating costs associated with the closure plan, which could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha. See Note 22 for further information.

For a complete discussion of the factors that influence our reclamation obligations and the associated risks, refer to Part II, Item 7, Managements’ Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the headings “Environmental” and “Critical Accounting Policies” and refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors under the heading “Mine closure, reclamation and remediation costs for environmental liabilities may exceed the provisions we have made” for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed February 18, 2021 on Form 10-K.

Our sustainability strategy is a foundational element in achieving our purpose to create value and improve lives through sustainable and responsible mining. Sustainability and safety are integrated into the business at all levels of the organization through our global policies, standards, strategies, business plans and remuneration plans. For more information on the Company’s reclamation and remediation liabilities, see Notes 5 and 22 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Unless otherwise noted, we present the Non-GAAP financial measures of our continuing operations in the tables below.

Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization and Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization

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

Cash care and maintenance costs were $125 and $145 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, relating to our Musselwhite, Éléonore, Peñasquito, Yanacocha, and Cerro Negro mine sites.

Additionally, the Company uses Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure to evaluate the operating performance of its investment in the Pueblo Viejo mine. Pueblo Viejo EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, Equity income (loss) of affiliates, as defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash distributions from Pueblo Viejo will match Pueblo Viejo EBITDA or earnings from affiliates. Although the Company has the ability to exert significant influence, it does not have direct control over the operations or resulting revenues and expenses, nor does it proportionately consolidate its investment in

Pueblo Viejo. The Company believes that Pueblo Viejo EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the operating results of its investment in Pueblo Viejo, in the same manner as management and the Board of Directors. Equity income (loss) of affiliates is reconciled to Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as follows:

Adjusted net income (loss)

Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) allows investors and others to understand the results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the sale of products, by excluding certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. Adjustments to continuing operations are presented before tax and net of our partners’ noncontrolling interests, when applicable. The tax effect of adjustments is presented in the Tax effect of adjustments line and is calculated using the applicable regional tax rate. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted net income (loss) are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted net income (loss) as follows:

(15)Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share is calculated using diluted common shares, which are calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Free Cash Flow

Management uses Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Free Cash Flow is Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of discontinued operations less Additions to property, plant and mine development as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company’s performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company’s calculation of Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.

The presentation of non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. The Company’s definition of Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Free Cash Flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow, as well as information regarding Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities and Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.

Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce

Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by dividing the costs applicable to sales of gold and other metals by gold ounces or gold equivalent ounces sold, respectively. These

Table of Contents

measures are calculated for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce statistics are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

All-In Sustaining Costs

Newmont has developed a metric that expands on GAAP measures, such as cost of goods sold, and non-GAAP measures, such as costs applicable to sales per ounce, to provide visibility into the economics of our mining operations related to expenditures, operating performance and the ability to generate cash flow from our continuing operations.

Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain production. Therefore, we believe that all-in sustaining costs is a non-GAAP measure that provides additional information to management, investors and analysts that aids in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other producers and provides investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with production.

All-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) amounts are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks such as in International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), or by reflecting the benefit from selling non-gold metals as a reduction to AISC. Differences may also arise related to definitional differences of sustaining versus development (i.e. non-sustaining) activities based upon each company’s internal policies.

The following disclosure provides information regarding the adjustments made in determining the all-in sustaining costs measure:

Costs applicable to sales. Includes all direct and indirect costs related to current production incurred to execute the current mine plan. We exclude certain exceptional or unusual amounts from Costs applicable to sales (“CAS”), such as significant revisions to recovery amounts. CAS includes by-product credits from certain metals obtained during the process of extracting and processing the

Table of Contents

primary ore-body. CAS is accounted for on an accrual basis and excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation, which is consistent with our presentation of CAS on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In determining AISC, only the CAS associated with producing and selling an ounce of gold is included in the measure. Therefore, the amount of gold CAS included in AISC is derived from the CAS presented in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less the amount of CAS attributable to the production of other metals at our Peñasquito and Boddington mines. The other metals CAS at those mine sites is disclosed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines is based upon the relative sales value of gold and other metals produced during the period.

Reclamation costs. Includes accretion expense related to reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the related Asset Retirement Cost (“ARC”) for the Company’s operating properties. Accretion related to the reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the ARC assets for reclamation does not reflect annual cash outflows but are calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accretion and amortization reflect the periodic costs of reclamation associated with current production and are therefore included in the measure. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines.

Advanced projects, research and development and exploration. Includes incurred expenses related to projects that are designed to sustain current production and exploration. We note that as current resources are depleted, exploration and advanced projects are necessary for us to replace the depleting reserves or enhance the recovery and processing of the current reserves to sustain production at existing operations. As these costs relate to sustaining our production, and are considered a continuing cost of a mining company, these costs are included in the AISC measure. These costs are derived from the Advanced projects, research and development and Exploration amounts presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less incurred expenses related to the development of new operations, or related to major projects at existing operations where these projects will materially benefit the operation in the future. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.

General and administrative. Includes costs related to administrative tasks not directly related to current production, but rather related to supporting our corporate structure and fulfilling our obligations to operate as a public company. Including these expenses in the AISC metric provides visibility of the impact that general and administrative activities have on current operations and profitability on a per ounce basis. We allocate these costs to gold and other metals at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.

Care and maintenance and Other expense, net. Care and maintenance includes direct operating costs incurred at the mine sites during the period that these sites were temporarily placed into care and maintenance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For Other expense, net we exclude certain exceptional or unusual expenses, such as restructuring, as these are not indicative to sustaining our current operations. Furthermore, this adjustment to Other expense, net is also consistent with the nature of the adjustments made to Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders as disclosed in the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted net income (loss). The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.

Treatment and refining costs. Includes costs paid to smelters for treatment and refining of our concentrates to produce the salable metal. These costs are presented net as a reduction of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines.

Sustaining capital and finance lease payments. We determined sustaining capital and finance lease payments as those capital expenditures and finance lease payments that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. We determined development (i.e. non-sustaining) capital expenditures and finance lease payments to be those payments used to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations where those projects will materially benefit the operation and are excluded from the calculation of AISC. The classification of sustaining and development capital projects and finance leases is based on a systematic review of our project portfolio in light of the nature of each project. Sustaining capital and finance lease payments are relevant to the AISC metric as these are needed to maintain the Company’s current operations and provide improved transparency related to our ability to finance these expenditures from current operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.

Accounting Developments

For a discussion of Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, see Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to sell or find alternative uses for certain Conga assets currently in care and maintenance, which are otherwise expected to be used in future operations associated with the long-term development of the Conga project. As part of the ongoing evaluation of such opportunities, during the quarter we held discussions with a third party for the potential sale of certain of these assets. Due to the preliminary nature of the discussions, no agreement as to binding terms have been made and no payments have been received. As such, as of June 30, 2021, we are unable to conclude that the sale of these assets is probable, and that a potential sale will be completed within twelve months. Should the sale of these assets become probable, a material charge could result.

Refer to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Accounting Developments and Critical Accounting Policies included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2021 for additional information on our critical accounting policies and estimates.

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 U.S. dollar; 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.

Table of Contents

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 long-lived assets and goodwill. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020 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 June 30, 2021 included production cost and capitalized expenditure assumptions unique to each operation, a short-term and long-term gold price of $1,816 and $1,500 per ounce, respectively, a short-term and long-term copper price of $4.40 and $3.00 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term silver price of $26.69 and $18.00 per ounce, respectively, a short-term and long-term lead price of $0.97 and $1.05 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term zinc price of $1.32 and $1.30 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. to Australian dollar exchange rate of $0.77 and $0.77, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. to Canadian dollar exchange rate of $0.81 and $0.80, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. dollar to Mexican Peso exchange rate of $0.05 and $0.05, respectively and a short-term and long-term U.S. dollar to Argentinian Peso exchange rate of $0.01 and $0.02, respectively.

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.

Foreign Currency

In addition to our operations in the United States, 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 U.S. dollar 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 U.S. dollar can increase or decrease profit margins, cash flow and Costs applicable to sales per ounce/ pound to the extent costs are paid in local currency at foreign operations.

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.

At June 30, 2021, Newmont had gold sales of 260,000 ounces priced at an average of $1,764 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each 10% change in the price for provisionally priced gold sales would have an approximate $31 effect on our Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The London Bullion Market Association P.M. closing settlement price at June 30, 2021 for gold was $1,763 per ounce.

At June 30, 2021, Newmont had copper sales of 18 million pounds priced at an average of $4.26 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each 10% change in the price for provisionally priced copper sales would have an approximate $6 effect on our Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The London Metal Exchange ("LME") closing settlement price at June 30, 2021 for copper was $4.26 per pound.

At June 30, 2021, Newmont had silver sales of 6 million ounces priced at an average of $25.77 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each 10% change in the price for provisionally priced silver sales would have an approximate $11 effect on our Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The London Bullion Market Association closing settlement price at June 30, 2021 for silver was $26.06 per ounce.

At June 30, 2021, Newmont had lead sales of 28 million pounds priced at an average of $1.03 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each 10% change in the price for provisionally priced lead sales would have an approximate $2 effect on our Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The LME closing settlement price at June 30, 2021 for lead was $1.05 per pound.

At June 30, 2021, Newmont had zinc sales of 57 million pounds priced at an average of $1.35 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each 10% change in the price for provisionally priced zinc sales would have an approximate $5 effect on our Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The LME closing settlement price at June 30, 2021 for zinc was $1.34 per pound.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Information regarding legal proceedings is contained in Note 22 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, Item 1A., “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, except as noted below.

Our operations at Yanacocha and the development of our Conga project in Peru are subject to political and social unrest risks.

Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. (“Yanacocha”), in which we own a 51.35% interest, and whose properties include the mining operations at Yanacocha and the Conga project in Peru, has been the target of local political and community protests, some of which blocked the road between the Yanacocha mine and Conga project complexes in the City of Cajamarca in Peru and resulted in vandalism and equipment damage. While recently roadblocks and protests have diminished and focused on local political activism and labor disputes, we cannot predict whether similar or more significant incidents will occur in the future. The recurrence of significant political or community opposition or protests could continue to adversely affect the Conga Project’s development, other new projects in the area and the continued operation of Yanacocha.

Construction activities on our Conga project were suspended in 2011, at the request of Peru’s central government following protests in Cajamarca by anti-mining activists led by the regional president. At the request of the Peruvian central government, the environmental impact assessment prepared in connection with the project was reviewed by independent experts in an effort to resolve allegations around the environmental viability of Conga. This review concluded that the environmental impact assessment complied with international standards and provided recommendations to improve water management. Based on the Company's internal project portfolio evaluation process, we do not anticipate developing Conga in the next ten years. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the project’s development timeline, we have allocated our exploration and development capital to other projects in our portfolio. As a result, the Conga project is currently in care and maintenance and we continue to evaluate opportunities to sell or find alternative uses for equipment and assets originally acquired for the Conga project, which may result in an impairment charge in the future. For example, as part of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of opportunities during the second quarter 2021, we held discussions with a third party for the potential sale of certain of these assets. Due to the preliminary nature of the discussions, no agreement as to binding terms have been made and no payments have been received. While, as of the end of the second quarter of 2021, the Company was unable to conclude that the sale of these assets is probable and that a potential sale will be completed within twelve months, should the sale of the equipment and assets progress in the future to become probable, a material charge could occur.

The Central Government of Peru supported responsible mining as a vehicle for the growth and future development of Peru in 2020. However, in light of the most recent presidential election, we are unable to predict whether the Central government will continue to take similar positions in the future. In a close and contested election, Pedro Castillo was declared the president-elect of Peru in July 2021. The contested election could lead to protests and a period of turmoil and unrest, which could affect the political and social environment in Peru and Cajamarca. While the new Central Government’s legislative priorities and agenda remain to be established, Castillo’s platform has been considered to be less supportive of mining in the past, and raised concerns with respect to foreign investment and mining. Additionally, previous regional governments of Cajamarca and other political parties actively opposed certain mining projects in the past, including by protests, community demands and road blockages, which may occur again in the future. We are unable to predict the positions that will be taken by the Central or regional government and neighboring communities in the future and whether such positions or changes in law will affect current operations and new projects at Yanacocha or Conga. Risks related to mining and foreign investment under the new administration include, without limitation, risks to mining concessions, land tenure and permitting, increased taxes and royalties, nationalization of mining assets and increased labor regulations, environmental and other regulatory requirements. Any change in government positions or laws on these issues could adversely affect the assets and operations of Yanacocha or Conga, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. Additionally, the inability to develop Conga or operate at Yanacocha could have an adverse impact on our growth and production in the region.

In addition, in early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards. These Peruvian regulations allow time 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 Mining Ministry (“MINEM”). The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021 and is now in the process of updating its compliance achievement plan to address these comments. 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. Consequently, part of the Company response to MINEM will include a request for an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations. In the event that MINEM does not grant Yanacocha an extension of the previously authorized timeline for, and agree to, the updated compliance achievement plan, fines and penalties relating to non-compliance may result beyond January 2024. 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 currently 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 studies are ongoing and could result in revisions to our reclamation plan and potential material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction and water treatment operating costs, associated with the closure plan.

____________________________

(1)The total number of shares purchased (and the average price paid per share) reflects: (i) shares purchased pursuant to the repurchase program described in (2) below; and (ii) represents shares delivered to the Company from stock awards held by employees upon vesting for the purpose of covering the recipients’ tax withholding obligations, totaling 5,092 shares, 5,483 shares and 90 shares for the fiscal months of April, May and June 2021, respectively.

(2)In January 2021, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to repurchase shares of outstanding common stock to offset the dilutive impact of employee stock award vesting and to provide returns to shareholders, provided that the aggregate value of shares of common stock repurchased under the new program does not exceed $1 billion, and such program will expire on July 15, 2022. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including trading volume, market conditions, legal requirements, business conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be discontinued at any time, and the program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of its common stock.

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.

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 engaged its Rapid Response process early in connection with the on-going COVID-19 pandemic and proactively took conservative steps to prevent further transmission of the Coronavirus. Refer to the “Second Quarter 2021 Highlights”, “Results of Consolidated Operations”, “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further information about the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company.

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. As of the date of filing, Newmont has received no citations by MSHA in connection with COVID-19 related regulations or requirements.

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.
