NYSE: MP $46.14 snapshot
MP Materials Corp. · Class A · Las Vegas, Nevada

America's rare earth mine, backed by Washington.

MP owns Mountain Pass, the only scaled US rare earth mine, and is building magnet factories. A Department of War deal sets a $110/kg price floor for its NdPr and fully contracts its new 10X magnet plant. NdPr output rose 41% last quarter, but the company is still losing money while it spends $500–600M on capex this year.

Watch list

What moves the thesis, sorted by direction.

Tailwind

Government backing

The Department of War price floor of $110/kg and a fully contracted 10X magnet plant reduce commodity-price risk.

Tailwind

Volume ramp

NdPr sales topped 1,000 t for the second straight quarter and production should exceed 1,000 t in Q3.

Watch

Heavy capex

2026 capex is guided at $500–600M, including the $80M 10X site. Free cash flow was −$223M in Q2.

Risk

Still unprofitable

Operating losses continue while magnet plants are built; the magnetics segment's revenue fell 17% during the transition.

Calendar
