Earnings Summary
Newmont Corporation stands as a global leader in gold production, complemented by exploration in copper, silver, and zinc across North and South America, Australia, and other regions. The firm’s diversified metal portfolio positions it to capitalize on commodity cycles while maintaining a strong gold focus. In Q2 2026, revenue reached $6.12 billion, up 7.5% from $5.81 billion in Q1 2026, and EPS rose to $2.10 from $2.90, a 27.6% decline that still beat analyst expectations, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of EPS beats; revenue growth has accelerated from 4.5% in Q1 2025 to 7.5% in Q2 2026, reflecting robust gold price support. Over the past eight quarters, Newmont has consistently delivered revenue growth, with EPS beats in six of those periods, indicating resilient profitability amid fluctuating commodity prices. Recent news reports a 1.33% decline in the stock on Oct 13, with analysts projecting a 12.28% EPS increase for the upcoming earnings release, while noting a 14% revenue rise; the market remains cautiously optimistic amid rising bullion prices and concerns over operational costs. The focus on maintaining high return on equity and low debt levels will also be a key factor in assessing Newmont’s capacity to sustain dividend growth and support shareholder value.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into NEM?

FAIR

At today's price, Newmont Corporation needs to grow free cash flow about 6.1% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 9.54% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 4.4% a year, so the market is asking for 1.7 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis NEM looks priced roughly in line with its own growth record.

vs 200-day average

Up days (1y)
53%

Newmont Corporation is currently running 28.4% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against NEM's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 37th percentile — on the quiet side for this stock, against a typical reading of 32.2%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

NEM is trading -14.6% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -30.9%, and the deepest was -55.8% in 2022. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +2.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 51st percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year NEM closed higher on 53% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 14 years of records, NEM finished the month higher 8 of 14 times, with a median return of +0.4% and an average of -0.5%. Its strongest month historically has been April at +5.2% on average, its weakest September at -2.7%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: NEM has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 140 of 3,268 sessions (4.3% of the time), with the largest gaps running +7.6% and -7.4%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

Across the last 3 dated reports on file, NEM moved an average of 3.1% in the session after earnings, closing higher 2 of those 3 times, with a median move of +1.2% and a largest of +7.2%.

All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-10-15 and 2026-10-14, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against NEM's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
