Newmont Corporation is an American gold mining company based in Denver, Colorado. It is the world's largest gold mining corporation. Incorporated in 1921, it holds ownership of gold mines in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Australia, Ghana, Argentina, Peru, and Suriname. Newmont is also a partial owner of Nevada Gold Mines in Nevada with Barrick Mining being the majority owner and operator. In addition to gold, Newmont mines copper, silver, zinc and lead.

Founded in 1921 as a holding company, the business is now the largest gold producer in the world, expanded by the 2023 acquisition of Newcrest Mining. Mining economics are the inverse of most manufacturers: the selling price is set entirely by a global commodity market, so management controls only cost per ounce and which deposits get developed. Reserve replacement is a permanent obligation because every mine depletes. Copper output from existing deposits has become a strategic byproduct. Headquarters are in Denver.

Equity comp at Newmont

  • Newmont's change-in-control benefits use a double-trigger design: vesting acceleration for unvested restricted stock, RSUs, and stock options requires both a change in control of the company AND a qualifying termination of the employee, not the change in control alone. This applies under Newmont's Change of Control Plan and its Stock Incentive Plan, though certain award types (such as Performance Leveraged Stock Units) are carved out with different treatment.
  • RSUs use double-trigger vesting. Two things must both happen before the shares are yours: (1) the normal time-based vesting completes, and (2) the company has a liquidity event (an IPO or an acquisition). Until both happen, you do not yet own the shares and you do not owe tax on them.

A protective put caps your downside on the NEM position at a chosen floor; a zero-cost collar pays for that floor by capping the upside. This calculator prices both structures off the current NEM option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.

Example: a 5,000-share NEM position at $115.56 is worth $577,800. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $11,556 to $23,112) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off NEM's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

Newmont equity questions

How much does it cost to hedge NEM stock?
The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and NEM's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current NEM option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
Does Newmont grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Newmont typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
Do Newmont RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
Yes. Newmont restricted stock units (RSUs) vest only when two things both happen: the time-based schedule completes, and the company has a liquidity event such as an initial public offering (IPO) or an acquisition. Until both occur you do not own the shares and owe no tax on them.
