____________________________

(1)Attributable gold ounces produced includes 60 and 69 thousand ounces for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the Pueblo Viejo mine, which is 40% owned by Newmont and accounted for as an equity method investment.

(2)Attributable gold ounces sold excludes ounces related to the Pueblo Viejo mine, which is 40% owned by Newmont and accounted for as an equity method investment.

(3)Gold equivalent ounces are calculated as pounds or ounces produced or sold multiplied by the ratio of the other metals’ price to the gold price. In 2023, the Company updated the metal prices utilized for this calculation to align with reserve metal price assumptions; this resulted in fewer calculated gold equivalent ounces - other metals produced and sold of 55 thousand ounces and 48 thousand ounces, respectively, than would have been calculated based on the pricing used in 2022 for this calculation. Refer to Results of Consolidated Operations within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis for further information.

(4)Excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation.

(5)Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis.
