Ruling

Final ordinary dividend paid by Newcrest Mining Limited included in the assessable income of Australian resident shareholders

8. The Final Ordinary Dividend is:

•

a 'dividend' as defined in subsection 6(1) of the ITAA 1936, and

•

a 'frankable distribution' as defined in section 202-40.

9. If you are a resident of Australia and received the Final Ordinary Dividend (of US$0.20) in Australian dollars, your assessable income includes A$0.3125 in respect of each Newcrest share you held (subparagraph 44(1)(a)(i) of the ITAA 1936).

10. If you are a resident of Australia and received the Final Ordinary Dividend in US dollars, Papua New Guinea kina (PGK) or New Zealand dollars, your assessable income includes US$0.20, PGK0.7194 or NZ$0.3383 (as applicable) in respect of each Newcrest share you held (subparagraph 44(1)(a)(i) of the ITAA 1936). This amount must be translated to Australian dollars at the exchange rate applicable at the time of receipt on 18 September 2023 (table item 6 of subsection 960-50(6)).

11. If you are a 'qualified person' in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend (see paragraphs 18 to 32 of this Ruling), you:

•

also include the franking credit on the Final Ordinary Dividend in your assessable income (subsection 207-20(1)), and

•

are entitled to a tax offset equal to that franking credit (subsection 207-20(2)).

12. Your entitlement to the franking credit tax offset under Division 207 in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend is subject to the refundable tax offset rules in Division 67, provided you are not excluded by the operation of section 67-25.

Special dividend paid by Newcrest Mining Limited included in the assessable income of Australian resident shareholders

13. The Special Dividend is:

•

a dividend as defined in subsection 6(1) of the ITAA 1936, and

•

a frankable distribution as defined in section 202-40.

14. If you are a resident of Australia and received the Special Dividend (of US$1.10) in Australian dollars, your assessable income includes A$1.7244 in respect of each Newcrest share you held (subparagraph 44(1)(a)(i) of the ITAA 1936).

15. If you are a resident of Australia and received the Special Dividend in US dollars, Papua New Guinea kina or New Zealand dollars, your assessable income includes US$1.10, PGK4.0590 or NZ$1.8625 (as applicable) in respect of each Newcrest share you held (subparagraph 44(1)(a)(i) of the ITAA 1936). This amount must be translated to Australian dollars at the exchange rate applicable at the time of receipt on 27 October 2023 (table item 6 of subsection 960-50(6)).

16. If you are a qualified person in relation to the Special Dividend (see paragraphs 18 to 32), you:

•

also include the franking credit on the Special Dividend in your assessable income (subsection 207-20(1)), and

•

are entitled to a tax offset equal to that franking credit (subsection 207-20(2)).

17. Your entitlement to the franking credit tax offset under Division 207 in relation to the Special Dividend is subject to the refundable tax offset rules in Division 67, provided you are not excluded by the operation of section 67-25.

Qualified person

18. Paragraph 207-145(1)(a) refers to Division 1A of former Part IIIAA of the ITAA 1936, which contains the conditions you must satisfy to be a qualified person in relation to a franked distribution you have received.

19. The main way in which you can be a qualified person is by satisfying the holding period rule.

20. Under the terms of the scheme of arrangement, the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend do not constitute a 'related payment' for the purposes of former section 160APHN of the ITAA 1936.

21. Therefore, under the terms of the scheme of arrangement, you are not taken to have made a related payment in respect of the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend.

22. As a result, you will satisfy the holding period rule in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend (respectively) only if you held your Newcrest shares for a continuous period of at least 45 days during the 'primary qualification period' for the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend respectively (former paragraphs 160APHO(1)(a) and 160APHO(2)(a) of the ITAA 1936).

23. In calculating the number of days for which you continuously held your Newcrest shares, you exclude any days on which you had 'materially diminished risks of loss or opportunities for gain' (as defined in former section 160APHM of the ITAA 1936) in respect of the shares. The exclusion of those days is not taken to break the continuity of the period for which you held the shares (former subsection 160APHO(3) of the ITAA 1936).

24. In calculating the number of days for which you continuously held your Newcrest shares, you do not count the day on which you acquired your Newcrest shares or the day on which you disposed of your Newcrest shares (former paragraph 160APHO(2)(a) of the ITAA 1936).

25. The primary qualification period begins on the day after the day on which you acquired the Newcrest shares, and ends on the 45th day after the day on which the shares became ex dividend (former section 160APHD of the ITAA 1936).

26. A share in respect of which a dividend is to be paid becomes ex dividend on the day after the last day on which the acquisition by a person of the share will entitle the person to receive the dividend (former subsection 160APHE(1) of the ITAA 1936).

27. In relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend, your Newcrest shares became ex dividend on 22 August 2023. Therefore, the primary qualification period in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend began on the day after the day on which you acquired your Newcrest shares and ended on 6 October 2023 (inclusive). You must satisfy the holding period rule in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend during this period.

28. In relation to the Special Dividend, your Newcrest shares became ex dividend on 20 October 2023.

29. For the purpose of working out whether you satisfy the holding period rule in relation to the Special Dividend, you do not count the days during which you held your Newcrest shares on and after 30 October 2023. This is because you had materially diminished risks of loss or opportunities for gain in respect of your Newcrest shares on and after 30 October 2023 (the Scheme Record Date) when you became committed to disposing of your shares in Newcrest in exchange for the Scheme Consideration.

30. This means that you must satisfy the holding period rule in relation to the Special Dividend during the period beginning on the day after the day on which you acquired your Newcrest shares and ending on 29 October 2023 (inclusive).

31. Another way in which you can be a qualified person in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend is under the small shareholder exception in former section 160APHT of the ITAA 1936. This will only apply to you if you are an individual, and the total amount of your franking credit tax offsets for the income year (from Newcrest and any other company, trust or partnership) does not exceed $5,000.

32. The small shareholder exception in former section 160APHT of the ITAA 1936 only applies to the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend if you did not make a related payment in respect of those dividends (former subsection 160APHT(2)) either under the terms of the scheme of arrangement or under a separate arrangement.

Exempting entity

33. Newcrest was not an exempting entity (section 208-20), or a former exempting entity (section 208-50), at the time when it paid the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend to you.

34. Therefore, section 208-195 will not apply to prevent the inclusion in your assessable income of the amount of the franking credit on the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend you received, nor to deny the franking credit tax offset to which you are otherwise entitled under Division 207.

Integrity rules in relation to franking credits

35. The Commissioner will not make a determination under paragraph 177EA(5)(b) of the ITAA 1936 to deny the whole, or any part, of the imputation benefits you received in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend. This is because it cannot be concluded that Newcrest or the shareholders of Newcrest entered into or carried out the scheme for a more than incidental purpose of enabling the shareholders of Newcrest to obtain an imputation benefit, and accordingly the purpose requirement in paragraph 177EA(3)(e) of the ITAA 1936 is not satisfied.

36. As there is no streaming of distributions, the Commissioner will not make a determination under subsection 204-30(3) to deny the whole, or any part, of the imputation benefits you received in relation to the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend.

37. Section 207-145 will not apply to the whole, or any part, of the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend.

Final ordinary dividend and special dividend paid by Newcrest Mining Limited – consequences for non-resident shareholders where dividends are not attributable to a permanent establishment

38. If you are a non-resident and you received the Final Ordinary Dividend or the Special Dividend or both, and the dividend is not attributable to a permanent establishment in Australia, no part of the Final Ordinary Dividend or the Special Dividend will be included in your assessable income. This is because:

•

the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend are non-assessable non-exempt income (section 128D of the ITAA 1936)

•

you are not liable for dividend withholding tax on the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend (subparagraph 128B(3)(ga)(i) of the ITAA 1936)

•

you do not include the franking credit on the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend in your assessable income and you are not entitled to a tax offset for the franking credit on the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend (sections 207-20 and 207-70).

Capital gains tax consequences

CGT event A1 happened on disposal of shares in Newcrest Mining Limited

39. CGT event A1 happened when you disposed of your Newcrest shares to Newmont Acquirer (section 104-10).

40. The time of CGT event A1 is on the Implementation Date (6 November 2023) (paragraph 104-10(3)(b)).

41. The capital proceeds from CGT event A1 happening to each Newcrest share is the market value of the part of the share in Newmont Corporation (Newmont), or the part of the CHESS Depositary Interest (CDI) or PETS Depositary Interest (PDI) in relation to shares in Newmont (whichever is applicable), you received in respect of your disposal of the Newcrest share (subsection 116-20(1)). The market value of the Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs is worked out as at the time of CGT event A1.

42. The Commissioner accepts that the market value of 0.4 of a Newmont share, CDI or PDI (whichever is applicable) you received in respect of your disposal of each Newcrest share was as follows:

43. The capital proceeds do not include the Final Ordinary Dividend and the Special Dividend as they were not paid in respect of CGT event A1 happening to your Newcrest shares.

44. You will make a capital gain from CGT event A1 happening if the capital proceeds from the disposal of your Newcrest share exceeded the cost base of that share (subsection 104-10(4)). You will make a capital loss from CGT event A1 happening if the capital proceeds from the disposal of your Newcrest share were less than the reduced cost base of that share (subsection 104-10(4))

Foreign-resident shareholders of Newcrest Mining Limited

45. You must disregard a capital gain or capital loss you made from CGT event A1 happening when you disposed of your Newcrest shares to Newmont Acquirer (section 855-10) if:

•

you were a foreign resident just before the Implementation Date (that is, you were not a resident of Australia as defined in subsection 6(1) of the ITAA 1936), and

•

your Newcrest shares were not 'taxable Australian property' (as defined in section 855-15).

46. Your Newcrest shares were taxable Australian property if they were either:

•

an 'indirect Australian real property interest' (table item 2 of section 855-15 and subsection 855-25(1))

•

used by you at any time in carrying on a business through a permanent establishment in Australia (table item 3 of section 855-15), or

•

a CGT asset that is covered by subsection 104-165(3) (choosing to disregard a capital gain or capital loss on ceasing to be an Australian resident) (table item 5 of section 855-15).

47. Your Newcrest shares were an 'indirect Australian real property interest' if they passed:

•

the non-portfolio interest test (section 960-195) – that is, you (and any of your associates as defined in section 318 of the ITAA 1936) held 10% or more of the shares in Newcrest

-

at the time of CGT event A1, or

-

throughout a 12-month period that began no earlier than 24 months before the time of CGT event A1 and ended no later than the time of CGT event A1, and

•

the principal asset test (section 855-30) at the time of CGT event A1 if the sum of the market values of Newcrest's assets that are taxable Australian real property (as defined in section 855-20) exceeds the sum of the market values of Newcrest's assets that are not taxable Australian real property.

Availability of scrip for scrip roll-over for your shares in Newcrest Mining Limited

48. Subject to the qualifications in paragraphs 49 to 51 of this Ruling, if you make a capital gain from the disposal of your Newcrest shares, you may choose to obtain scrip for scrip roll-over for the capital gain (sections 124-780 and 124-785).

49. If you received PDIs in relation to shares of common stock of Newmont, you cannot choose scrip for scrip roll-over unless you were absolutely entitled to those shares of common stock of Newmont (for the purposes of section 106-50).

50. If any capital gain you might make from a replacement Newmont share, CDI or PDI would be disregarded, otherwise than because of a roll-over, you cannot choose scrip for scrip roll-over (paragraph 124-795(2)(a)).

51. If you were a foreign resident just before the Implementation Date, you cannot choose scrip for scrip roll-over unless you received Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs and they were taxable Australian property (as defined in section 855-15) just after the Implementation Date (subsection 124-795(1)).

Consequences if you choose scrip for scrip roll-over for your shares in Newcrest Mining Limited

Capital gain is disregarded

52. If you choose scrip for scrip roll-over, your capital gain is disregarded (subsection 124-785(1)).

53. For the purposes of determining your eligibility to make a discount capital gain from a subsequent CGT event happening to your Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs, the Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs you acquired in exchange for your Newcrest shares are taken to have been acquired on the date you acquired, for CGT purposes, the corresponding Newcrest shares (table item 2 of subsection 115-30(1)).

Cost base and reduced cost base of shares in Newmont Corporation or CHESS Depositary Interests or PETS Depositary Interests

54. If you choose scrip for scrip roll-over, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of a replacement Newmont share, CDI or PDI that you received is worked out by reasonably attributing to it the cost base and reduced cost base (respectively) of the Newcrest shares for which it was exchanged and for which the roll-over was obtained (subsections 124-785(2) and (4)).

55. The Commissioner accepts a reasonable method of attribution would be to calculate the first element of the cost base and reduced cost of each replacement Newmont share, CDI or PDI by dividing the total cost bases of your Newcrest shares by the number of replacement Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs you received.

Consequences if you do not choose, or cannot choose, scrip for scrip roll-over for your shares in Newcrest Mining Limited

Capital gain is not disregarded

56. If you do not choose, or cannot choose, scrip for scrip roll-over, you must take into account any capital gain or capital loss from CGT event A1 happening on the disposal of your Newcrest shares in working out your net capital gain or net capital loss for the income year in which CGT event A1 happened (sections 102-5 and 102-10).

57. If you make a capital gain where scrip for scrip roll-over is not chosen, or cannot be chosen, you can treat the capital gain as a discount capital gain provided that the conditions of Subdivision 115-A are met. In particular, you must have acquired your Newcrest shares that were disposed of at least 12 months before the Implementation Date (excluding the date of acquisition and the Implementation Date).

Cost base and reduced cost base of shares in Newmont Corporation or CHESS Depositary Interests or PETS Depositary Interests

58. If you do not choose, or cannot choose, scrip for scrip roll-over, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of a replacement Newmont share, CDI or PDI that you received is equal to the market value of the Newcrest shares you gave in respect of acquiring the Newmont share, CDI or PDI (subsections 110-25(2) and 110-55(2)).

59. The market value of the Newcrest shares you gave is to be worked out as at the time when you acquired the Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs. The Commissioner accepts that the market value of each Newcrest share you gave was A$23.33.

Acquisition date of shares in Newmont Corporation or CHESS Depositary Interests or PETS Depositary Interests

60. If you do not choose, or cannot choose, scrip for scrip roll-over, the acquisition date of the Newmont shares, CDIs or PDIs is the date on which those shares, CDIs or PDIs were issued to you (table item 2 of section 109-10).
