Proactive Investors - Newmont Corporation (NYSE:NEM, TSX:NGT, ASX:NEM, ETR:NMM) has let go of nearly a dozen managers as part of a major corporate restructuring effort, according to Bloomberg.
The layoffs include a member of its executive team, Bloomberg reported.
The restructuring includes plans to dismiss one executive and at least 10 senior managers, as well as consolidating five business units into three and will eliminate standalone divisions overseeing operations in Australia and Africa, merging them with units managing North America and East Asia.
The world’s largest gold miner reported mixed third-quarter earnings in October, with adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.81 falling short of estimates.
The company’s adjusted EBITDA of $1.97 billion also missed projections due to higher production costs, particularly at its Lihir and Penasquito operations.
Additionally, the $15 billion acquisition of Newcrest Mining in 2023, which expanded Newmont’s portfolio with major gold and copper mines, prompted the company to focus on a streamlined, Tier 1 asset strategy.
Shares of Newmont rose 2.6% on Monday afternoon in New York.
