The gold mining company reported Q2 EPS of $0.33, $0.14 worse than the analyst estimate of $0.47, with revenue decreasing 12% YoY, coming in at $2.7 billion versus the consensus estimate of $3 billion.
NEM said it produced 1.24 million attributable gold ounces and 256 thousand co-product gold equivalent ounces in the quarter and is “well positioned for stronger production in the second half of the year.”
“In the second quarter, Newmont delivered $910 million in adjusted EBITDA with a disciplined approach to running a safe and sustainable mining business to generate long-term value,” said Newmont President and CEO Tom Palmer. “Our business is underpinned by the industry’s strongest balance sheet and a global portfolio with the size and scale to make decisions that deliver on our strategy.”
Looking ahead, the company said it is on track to achieve its full-year guidance of between 5.7 and 6.3 million ounces of attributable gold production. Newmont said its outlook remains second-half weighted.
