Newmont consolidated and reframed its trade compliance risk framework by replacing three separate risk disclosures on export controls, asset divestiture, and management resource demands with four more integrated disclosures that emphasize third-party involvement in trade compliance and broaden contingency exposure to include litigation. The company expanded its retained liability disclosure by adding explicit reference to indemnification obligations from historical transactions, reflecting increased focus on legacy transaction risks. These changes indicate a shift toward more granular disclosure of post-acquisition liabilities and operational dependencies on third parties, while streamlining the presentation of trade and divestiture-related risks into consolidated narratives.

Newmont’s global operations create exposure to U.S. and international trade, sanctions, and export control risks. As a U.S.-headquartered company, Newmont must comply with U.S. trade laws worldwide, as well as applicable local regulations.

Export control laws, economic sanctions and international trade compliance regulations are always changing. As such, we have established a trade compliance program that includes policies, standards, and procedures, designed to ensure compliance with these regulations. Our program includes preventive and detective controls, employee training, and a robust third-party screening and ongoing monitoring program. Despite these efforts, our internal controls, policies, and procedures may not detect or prevent all violations of trade compliance laws, and we could be held accountable for misconduct, errors, or failures by employees, affiliates, agents, or third-party partners. We conduct investigations and evaluations in response to credible allegations of noncompliance, and may take remedial actions, including, where applicable, voluntary disclosures to authorities. Violations or allegations of trade compliance breaches could result in significant investigation costs, sanctions, litigation, loss of licenses, and reputational damage, which may materially impact our financial condition, operations, and the market value of our common shares.
