Description: MP MP Materials January 08, 2026

MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) is a U.S.–based rare-earth producer that operates two business lines: the Materials segment, which 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 is the only fully integrated rare-earth mining and processing operation in the Western Hemisphere.

Key recent metrics (as of FY 2023) include: ≈ $1.2 billion in revenue, a net loss of $85 million largely due to high processing costs, and an estimated 30 % share of U.S. rare-earth supply. The company’s earnings are highly sensitive to neodymium and dysprosium price movements, which are driven by demand from electric-vehicle motors and defense-grade permanent magnets. A material cost driver is the availability of low-cost, domestically sourced feedstock, while policy risk stems from potential U.S. subsidies for critical minerals that could improve margins.
