Newmont Sets Third-Quarter Adjusted Net Income Record at $2.31 Billion

Newmont reported Q3 adjusted net income of $2.31B, up from prior periods, with sales rising 15% YoY to $6.36B. Earnings per share were $2.35. Free cash flow declined due to working-capital outflows and higher investments. The company maintained its 2026 production outlook and improved cost guidance. Newmont expects to pay $1.95B to Barrick in Q4 and has returned $1.9B to shareholders since the last earnings call.
