Stock Track | Newmont Mining Plunges 5.02% on Adjusted EPS Miss and Lower Free Cash Flow Guidance
Stock Track
Feb 20
Newmont Mining's stock plummeted 5.02% in post-market trading on Thursday, reflecting a sharp negative reaction to the company's latest financial updates.
The decline followed the release of Newmont's fourth-quarter results, which revealed that adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.24, missing the IBES estimate of $2.00. Additionally, management indicated on the conference call that free cash flow for the first quarter of 2026 is expected to be lower compared to the fourth quarter of 2025.
These developments overshadowed other positive aspects of the report, such as record annual free cash flow and debt reduction, leading investors to focus on the earnings shortfall and near-term cash flow pressure.
