Newmont to Sell CC&V to SSR Mining for up to $275 Million
Read MoreHide Full Article
Newmont Corporation (NEM - Free Report) has agreed to sell its Cripple Creek & Victor ("CC&V") mine in Colorado to SSR Mining Inc. ("SSR") for up to $275 million in cash. Upon completion of the announced deals, Newmont will receive up to $3.9 billion in gross proceeds from non-core asset divestitures and investment sales. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2025, pending certain criteria.
According to the terms of the agreement, Newmont expects to receive gross proceeds of up to $275 million, including a cash consideration of $100 million due at closure. It expects deferred cash consideration of $87.5 million upon receipt of pending regulatory approval and deferred contingent cash compensation of $87.5 million upon resolution of regulatory applications for the Carlton Tunnel. Following the completion of an updated regulator-approved closure plan, and if total closure costs at CC&V exceed $500 million, Newmont will be responsible for funding 90% of the incremental closure costs, either on an as-incurred basis or through a net present value lump sum payment option.
In connection with the CC&V deal, BMO Capital Markets acted as financial adviser and Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP acted as legal adviser. The announcement, as part of the divestment program, is intended to streamline the Newmont portfolio as the premier operator of Tier 1 gold and copper assets. The company believes that SSR is capable of delivering the next chapter of life for CC&V, its workers and local stakeholders.
Newmont’s shares have gained 5.7% in the past year compared with a 26.2% rise of the industry.
