On July 31, Newmont Mining fell 3.22% in regular trading, trading at approximately $92.72/share, with turnover of $53.97 million. The decline was driven by a broad gold sector pullback following the Fed's July rate decision, compounded by the company's Q2 earnings miss.
On the sector front, precious metals stocks came under significant pressure after the Fed's July meeting concluded. Among peers, AngloGold Ashanti fell 10.08%, Eldorado dropped 6.66%, Coeur Mining declined 4.22%, Agnico Eagle Mines lost 3.87%, and Barrick Mining slid 3.0%.
On the company level, Newmont Mining reported Q2 adjusted EPS of $2.10, missing the consensus estimate of $2.18 by 3.67%. Revenue came in at $6.118 billion, also below the expected $6.491 billion. While Q2 results represented a 46.85% year-over-year EPS increase and approximately 30% revenue growth, the shortfall relative to elevated market expectations weighed on shares. The company had previously reaffirmed its full-year production targets and guided Q3 output largely flat with Q2, though oil price sensitivity on unit costs remains a risk factor.
