Faruqi & Faruqi Investigates Newmont Corporation
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a prominent national securities law firm, has announced that it is conducting an investigation into potential claims against
Newmont Corporation. This inquiry is particularly focused on the period from
February 22, 2024 to
October 23, 2024, during which investors may have faced significant financial losses.
Newmont, which is listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol NEM, is known for its operations in gold production, and recent developments could have serious implications for its investors.
James (Josh) Wilson, a partner at Faruqi & Faruqi, is actively encouraging individuals who purchased or acquired Newmont securities during the specified period to reach out directly to discuss their legal options. Investors can contact Wilson via phone at
877-247-4292 or

Background of the Investigation
The investigation stems from a securities class action that alleges the
Newmont Corporation and its executives may have violated federal securities laws by making misleading statements and, importantly, failing to disclose significant adverse information. This relates particularly to the company’s capacity to enhance gold production across its primary operations — namely, the
Lihir and
Brucejack sites — as well as efforts to reduce overall costs.
The situation escalated on
October 23, 2024, when Newmont released a press statement that revealed disappointing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) for the third quarter of 2024. The report also highlighted drops in production and increased operating costs, which contradicted previous projections made by the company.
Following these disclosures, the company’s stock price took a significant hit. On October 23, shares closed at
$57.74, but plunged to
$49.25 by the next trading day, October 24, reflecting the market's negative reaction to the unfavorable news about Newmont’s financial performance.
Who Can Participate?
The class action provides an opportunity for investors who have suffered losses to potentially reclaim some of their investments. A crucial aspect of this process is the designation of a lead plaintiff. This individual is typically the investor with the largest financial stake in the litigation, and they will represent the interests of all class members. It’s important to note that participating as a lead plaintiff does not affect a participant’s eligibility for any recovery.
Additionally, Faruqi & Faruqi invites any whistleblowers, former employees, or current shareholders who possess relevant information regarding Newmont’s conduct to get in touch with the firm. Such insights could be vital to strengthening the case against the company.
