Newmont Corporation (ASX: NEM)

Newmont Corporation (ASX: NEM) is a gold company that also produces copper, zinc, lead, and silver. Its portfolio of assets, prospects, and talent is supported by favourable mining jurisdictions across Africa, Australia, Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, and Papua New Guinea.

Recommendation RationaleSELL at AUD 95.91

  • Technical Standpoint: NEM’s share price has surpassed the R1 level recommended on 3 June 2025, and it has topped its 52-week high. Therefore, it can face resistance at the current levels.
  • Gold Price Volatility: Newmont’s profitability is closely tied to global gold prices. While gold has risen significantly, continued volatility or a pullback in gold prices amid global economic or policy uncertainty can weigh on NEM’s future margins.
  • Future Uncertainties and Guidance: The company has maintained its full-year production guidance, but there are operational challenges at some sites, and ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic risks could affect gold demand and sentiment. Investors may opt to reduce exposure now and re-enter if a correction emerges or clearer growth signals return.
  • Overvalued Multiples: On a forward 12-month basis – key trading multiples (EV/Sales, EV/EBITDA, Price/Earnings, Price/Cash Flow, and Price/Book) are higher than median of the Metals & Mining industry.

Valuation Methodology: Price/Cash Flow Approach (FY Dec'25E) (Illustrative)

NEM can trade at a slight premium than peers considering the operational efficiencies expected from

acquisition of Newcrest, US$10.2 bn in total liquidity to fund growth, year-on-year increase in sales and profitability in H1 FY25.

Given its current trading levels, recent rally in the share price, and risks associated, it is prudent to sell the stock at the current levels. Hence, a ‘Sell’ recommendation is given on the stock at the current market price of AUD 95.91, as of 25 July 2025 at 1:30 PM AEST.

Markets are trading in a highly volatile zone currently due to certain macro-economic issues and geopolitical issues prevailing geopolitical tensions. Therefore, it is prudent to follow a cautious approach while investing.
