Did NEM Beat Earnings? Q1 2025 Results
Newmont delivered a standout first quarter in 2025, reporting adjusted EPS of $1.25 against a consensus estimate of $0.90, a 38.18% beat, while revenue of $5.01 billion topped expectations by 5.69% and rose 25.2% year-over-year, underscoring the powe… Read more Newmont delivered a standout first quarter in 2025, reporting adjusted EPS of $1.25 against a consensus estimate of $0.90, a 38.18% beat, while revenue of $5.01 billion topped expectations by 5.69% and rose 25.2% year-over-year, underscoring the powerful tailwind of sharply higher realized gold prices. The average realized gold price surged to $2,944 per ounce, up from $2,090 a year earlier, serving as the single most consequential driver behind the quarter's record $1.21 billion in free cash flow and $2.63 billion in adjusted EBITDA. The results arrived as Newmont completed its non-core divestiture program, with Akyem and Porcupine sales closing in April, helping the company's shares climb more than 50% year-to-date. Management reaffirmed full-year guidance of 5.9 million attributable gold ounces, though cautioned that Q2 free cash flow faces headwinds from peak development capital at Ahafo North and Cadia, higher tax payments, and ongoing Yanacocha water treatment construction costs.
Key Takeaways
- • Average realized gold price surged to $2,944/oz, up $854/oz year-over-year
