NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021

(Amounts expressed in millions of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts and unless otherwise noted)

1. Description of business and nature of operations

New Gold Inc. ("New Gold" or the "Company") is an intermediate gold mining company engaged in the development and operation of mineral properties. The assets of the Company, directly or through its subsidiaries, are comprised of the Rainy River Mine in Canada ("Rainy River"), the New Afton Mine in Canada ("New Afton"), and the Cerro San Pedro Mine in Mexico (in reclamation) ("Cerro San Pedro" or "CSP"). The Company also holds an 8% gold stream on the Artemis Gold Blackwater ("Blackwater") project located in Canada, a 6% equity stake in Artemis Gold Inc., and other Canadian-focused investments.

The Company is a corporation governed by the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company's shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NYSE American under the symbol NGD. The Company's registered office is located at 925 West Georgia Street, Suite 1600, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3L2, Canada.

2. Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies

(a) Statement of compliance

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 which includes information necessary or useful to understanding the Company's business and financial statement presentation. In particular, the Company's significant accounting policies are presented as Note 2 in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, except as noted below in "changes in accounting policies". These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 10th, 2021.

  1. Changes in accounting policies
    IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment

The amendments to IAS 16 prohibit deducting the proceeds from selling items produced from the cost of property, plant, and equipment, while bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Instead, a company will recognize such sales proceeds and related costs in profit or loss. With the adoption of the amended standard, pre- commercial production sales and related costs while bringing a project into a condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, are recognized in profit or loss in accordance with applicable standards. The entity measures the cost of those items applying the

7

WWW.NEWGOLD.COM TSX:NGD NYSE American:NGD

measurement requirements of "IAS 2 Inventories". This amendment becomes effective January 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted.

The Company has early adopted this amendment as of January 1, 2021 with retrospective application only to items of property, plant and equipment that were brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management on or after January 1, 2020. The Company expects that the adoption of this amendment will apply to revenue generated by the sale of underground ore at Rainy River in 2021; however, the impact is not anticipated to be material. There was no impact on the prior-year period.

Rainy River Gold Stream Obligation

In 2015, the Company entered into a $175 million streaming transaction with RGLD Gold AG, a wholly owned subsidiary of Royal Gold Inc. ("Royal Gold"). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will deliver to Royal Gold 6.5% of gold production from Rainy River up to a total of 230,000 ounces of gold and then 3.25% of the mine's gold production thereafter. The Company will also deliver to Royal Gold 60% of the mine's silver production to a maximum of 3.1 million ounces and then 30% of silver production thereafter.

In addition to the upfront deposit, Royal Gold will pay 25% of the average spot gold or silver price at the time each ounce of gold or silver is delivered under the stream. The difference between the spot price of metal and the cash received from Royal Gold will reduce the $175.0 million deposit over the life of the mine. Upon expiry of the 40 year term of the agreement (which may be extended in certain circumstances), any balance of the $175.0 million upfront deposit remaining unpaid will be refunded to Royal Gold.

The Company has designated the gold stream obligation as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") under the scope of IFRS 9. Accordingly, the Company values the liability at the present

17

WWW.NEWGOLD.COM TSX:NGD NYSE American:NGD

value of its expected future cash flows at each reporting period with changes in fair value reflected in the consolidated income statements and consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Fair value adjustments represent the net effect on the gold stream obligation of changes in the variables included in the Company's valuation model between the date of receipt of deposit and the reporting date.

New Afton Free Cash Flow Interest Obligation

In the first quarter of 2020, New Gold entered into a strategic partnership with Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan ("Ontario Teachers'"). Under the terms of the strategic partnership, Ontario Teachers' acquired a 46% free cash flow interest in the New Afton mine for upfront cash proceeds of $300 million. Ontario Teachers' has an option to convert the free cash flow interest into a 46% joint venture interest in New Afton in four years, or have their free cash flow interest remain as a free cash flow interest at a reduced rate of 42.5%. The agreement includes a minimum cash guarantee at the end of four years and a buyback option for New Gold.

The Company has designated the free cash flow interest obligation as an FVTPL under the scope of IFRS

9. Fair value of the free cash flow interest obligation on initial recognition was determined by the amount of the cash advance received. Subsequent fair value is calculated on each reporting date with gains and losses recorded in net earnings. Fair value adjustments as a result of the Company's own credit risk are recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, as required by IFRS 9 for financial liabilities designated as at FVTPL.

Components of the adjustment to fair value for the non-current derivative financial liabilities at each reporting date include:

18. Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received when selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In assessing the fair value of a particular contract, the market participant would consider the credit risk of the counterparty to the contract. Consequently, when it is appropriate to do so, the Company adjusts the valuation models to incorporate a measure of credit risk. Fair value represents management's estimates of the current market value at a given point in time.

The Company has certain financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. There were no transfers among Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 or the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

Valuation methodologies for Level 2 and 3 financial assets and liabilities:

Provisionally priced contracts and gold and copper swap contracts

The fair value of the provisionally priced contracts and the gold and copper swap contracts is calculated using the mark-to-market forward prices of London Metals Exchange gold and copper based on the applicable settlement dates of the outstanding provisionally priced contracts and copper swap contracts.

29

WWW.NEWGOLD.COM TSX:NGD NYSE American:NGD

Gold and copper price option contracts

The fair value of the gold and copper price option contracts is measured based on fair value prices obtained from the counterparties of the gold price option contracts and copper price option contracts.

Foreign exchange forward contracts

The fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts is calculated using the mark-to-market method based on the difference between the forward Canadian dollar to U.S dollar foreign exchange rate and the foreign exchange rates of the contracts.

Gold stream obligation

The fair value of the gold stream obligation is calculated using the risk-free interest rate derived from the U.S. Treasury rate, forward and consensus metal prices, company specific credit spread based on the yield on the Company's 2025 Unsecured Notes, and expected gold and silver ounces to be delivered from Rainy River's life of mine projections.

Free cash flow interest obligation

The fair value of the free cash flow interest obligation is calculated using the risk-free interest rate derived from the U.S. Treasury rate, forward and consensus metal prices, company specific credit spread based on the yield on the Company's 2027 Unsecured Notes, and expected production, operating and capital costs from New Afton's life of mine projections, including considerations to the minimum cash guarantee over the first four years of the instrument.

The following table summarizes the Company's financial assets and liabilities by category and information about financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the statement of financial position categorized by level of significance of the inputs used in making the measurements:
