Description: MP MP Materials November 05, 2025
MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) is a U.S.–based rare-earth producer that operates two business lines: the Materials segment, which owns and runs the Mountain Pass mine and processing plant in California, and the Magnetics segment, which manufactures magnetic-precursor products. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Las Vegas, the firm supplies a significant portion of the domestic rare-earth supply chain.
Key metrics as of FY 2023 include roughly $1.0 billion in revenue, a net loss of about $200 million (reflecting high processing costs and commodity price volatility), and an estimated 30 percent share of U.S. rare-earth production capacity. The company’s outlook is tightly linked to policy-driven demand from electric-vehicle batteries, wind-turbine generators, and defense applications, as well as to the Inflation Reduction Act’s incentives for domestic critical-minerals sourcing.
