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.
Price, last 12 months
Daily closes with the 50-day average. The stock fell by more than half from its high near $100.
Revenue and margins, by quarter
Revenue in US$ millions, with GAAP gross margin on the right axis. Since mid-2025 revenue includes price-protection income from the Department of War ($17.6M in Q2 2026); reported product revenue was $108.5M. MP gives no revenue guidance, so there is no guidance bar.

Watch list
What moves the thesis, sorted by direction.
Government backing
The Department of War price floor of $110/kg and a fully contracted 10X magnet plant reduce commodity-price risk.
Volume ramp
NdPr sales topped 1,000 t for the second straight quarter and production should exceed 1,000 t in Q3.
Heavy capex
2026 capex is guided at $500–600M, including the $80M 10X site. Free cash flow was −$223M in Q2.
Still unprofitable
Operating losses continue while magnet plants are built; the magnetics segment's revenue fell 17% during the transition.
Calendar
Q3 2026 earnings
Management expects NdPr production above 1,000 t and realized prices in the high $90s/kg.
