First Quarter 2020 Highlights

•Net income: Delivered Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders of $837 or $1.04 per diluted share, an increase of $724 from the prior-year quarter primarily due to the gains on the sale of Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines ("Kalgoorlie"), Continental Gold and Red Lake, higher production from the acquired Goldcorp assets and higher average realized gold prices, partially offset by an investment impairment, change in fair value of investments and from debt extinguishment in March 2020.

•Adjusted net income: Delivered Adjusted net income of $326 or $0.40 per diluted share, an increase of $0.07 from the prior-year quarter (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).

•Adjusted EBITDA: Generated $1,118 in Adjusted EBITDA, an increase of 63% 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 $939 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, an increase of 64% from the prior year, and free cash flow of $611 (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).

•Portfolio improvements: Completed divestiture of the Company’s 50 percent interest in Kalgoorlie in Australia; approved Autonomous Haulage at Boddington in Australia; completed sale of investment holdings in Continental Gold; completed divestiture of Red Lake complex in Canada.

•Attributable gold production: Produced 1.5 million ounces of gold, an increase of 20% over the prior-year quarter.

•Financial strength: Ended the quarter with $3.7 billion of consolidated cash; refinanced $1.0 billion of outstanding debt at historically low coupon of 2.25%; increased the dividend declared for the first quarter to $0.25 per share on April 21, 2020, an increase of 79% over prior year quarter.

Our global project pipeline

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

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 2023, and is expected to reduce operating costs by approximately 10 percent. Development capital costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $26, of which $12 related to the first quarter of 2020.

Musselwhite Materials Handling, North America. This project improves material movement from Musselwhite’s two main zones below Lake Opapimiskan. An underground shaft will hoist ore from the underground crushers, reducing haulage distances and ventilation costs. The project is 95% complete; however, full commissioning has been delayed amidst the COVID-19 pandemic as Musselwhite operations have been placed on care and maintenance.

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

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China (“COVID-19”) and has since spread worldwide, posing public health risks across the globe. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic 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, including our ability to execute our 2020 business plan in the expected time frame, will depend on future developments, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and related restrictions, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have fully mobilized our business continuity plans and rapid response crisis management teams and are working closely with host and indigenous communities, regional and national governments and medical experts to protect our workforce and nearby communities, while also taking steps to preserve the long-term value of our business.

Health and safety

We have implemented controls at our operations and offices around the globe to put the health, safety, and overall wellbeing of our people and communities above all else. We have been working closely with host governments and communities to implement strict safety protocols at our sites with physical distancing and a reduced workforce. We are also implementing the provision of hygienic and other critical supplies and training and, in certain cases, pre-emptively ramping down operations to safeguard vulnerable communities, or placing operations in care and maintenance to align with government efforts. 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. These steps include but are not limited to:

•Cancelling all non-essential travel in early March;

•Closing our offices and implementing remote and flexible work arrangements;

•Significantly reducing the number of people working on our operating sites to the essential numbers required to operate and maintain the mines, processing plants and environmental control management systems;

•Enhancing temperature and questionnaire screening prior to arrival or entry to our sites;

•Implementing strict physical distancing protocols in planes, buses, light vehicles, offices and dining facilities;

•Increasing the frequency of deep cleaning and sanitization of surfaces;

•Providing hygiene and health support to nearby communities where our employees and contractors live and work; and

•Proactively ramping down certain operations to reduce the risk of transmission to nearby communities with limited health care capacity.

As of the date of filing, Newmont has no confirmed cases of COVID-19 at any of its sites thanks to the discipline of our employees in adhering to these and other protocols. We are proud of the way our employees have responded to these challenging times. In addition to strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols, they have further demonstrated their commitment by joining the fight against this pandemic in the communities where they live and work. As a global business with operations in eight countries, we are committed to doing our part to combat this disease and protect people and their livelihoods. For a discussion of COVID-19 related risks to the business, see Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors.

In addition to the above measures, in April 2020 Newmont announced the establishment of the Newmont Global Community Support Fund, a $20 fund to help host communities, governments and employees combat the COVID-19 pandemic. The fund is designed to focus on employee and community health, food security and local economic resilience through partnerships 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.

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 order to protect nearby communities and align with travel restrictions or health considerations in Canada, Argentina and Peru, four Newmont operations were temporarily put into care and maintenance in March 2020 including Musselwhite, Éléonore, Cerro Negro and Yanacocha. In April 2020 we also began taking steps towards a safe and orderly ramp down of operations at Peñasquito in Mexico and placed the operations on care and maintenance on April 12, 2020. While we are taking steps to ensure that we are well-positioned to safely and quickly resume normal production once protective measures are lifted, if at any point we determine that continuing operations poses an increased risk to our workforce or host communities, we will further reduce operational activities and limit activities to essential care and maintenance procedures including the management of critical environmental systems. Additionally, we have established a global supply chain task force to assess all potential supply chain risks and develop viable contingency plans that enable us to stay ahead of any potential supply disruptions. Such reductions in our operational activities or disruptions to our supply chain could have a material adverse impact on our business, or financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have increased volatility in metal prices including strengthening gold prices while weakening other metal prices. The Company expects gold prices to remain strong while uncertainty in global financial markets continue, interest rates remain at historical lows and as governments continue stimulus efforts. Although we have not had significant shipping delays for produced metals, and third party refineries that were temporarily closed at March 31, 2020 have since opened, logistical challenges in the transportation industries, future closures of processing facilities including refineries or smelters, supply chain disruptions or the potential to place additional sites on care and maintenance from the continued spread of COVID-19 could limit our ability to produce and sell metals. We may also incur expenses related to COVID-19 that include costs associated with putting our operations into care and maintenance, health related costs pursuant to our self-funded employee medical insurance program, or we may experience diminished employee or vendor attendance and productivity, all of which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Refer to “Consolidated Financial Results” and “Results of Consolidated Operations” within Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis for additional information about the impact of COVID-19 on our business and operations.

Liquidity considerations

Newmont believes it has sufficient liquidity on hand to continue business operations during this volatile period. We will continuously review and assess the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our business, our people, the communities in which we operate, our suppliers and our customers to be responsive to developments while maintaining financial flexibility. As of March 31, 2020, our available liquidity totals $6.6 billion consisting of our cash and cash equivalents of $3.7 billion, and borrowing capacity of $2.9 billion available under our unsecured revolving credit facility, which we believe allows us to manage the near-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

The Company announced the first quarter dividend on April 21, 2020, for $0.25 in alignment with the previously announced dividend increase and repurchased shares under the December 2019 share buyback plan for an additional $321 during the first quarter of 2020. The Company’s management and board of directors continue to monitor Newmont’s future quarterly dividends and timing of future share buybacks as it evaluates the ongoing developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” within Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis for additional information about the impact of COVID-19 on our liquidity and capital resources.

Refer to Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors for an additional discussion of risks and potential risks of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
