AMG lifts profit outlook and wins EU backing for lithium projects

  • AMG raises 2026 profit guidance after strong quarter AMG reported second-quarter profit (adjusted EBITDA) of $92 million, up 30% from a year earlier, and raised its full-year outlook to $230–$250 million. Stronger lithium demand and a big shipment shifted from the first quarter drove the gain, a real sign the business is earning more.

    The guidance raise is the clearest new fundamental driver of the stock.

  • EU names two AMG lithium projects strategic The European Commission designated AMG's Bitterfeld lithium refinery and the Zinnwald project as Critical Raw Materials Act Strategic Projects. That EU backing can speed permits and funding, and it strengthens AMG's position as Europe's home-grown lithium supplier, supporting the shares.

    This is a new regulatory endorsement that improves AMG's long-term lithium prospects.

  • AMG reshapes portfolio and strengthens balance sheet AMG closed the $56 million purchase of Zinnwald Lithium and sold Graphit Kropfmühl for $64 million, ending the quarter with $508 million of liquidity and over $400 million cash. The moves focus the company on lithium while keeping plenty of money to fund growth.

    Portfolio deals and a strong cash position underpin the improved outlook.

  • Big investors build stakes, but dividend stays flat Man Group raised its AMG stake to 3.24% and Dimensional disclosed 1.95%, showing institutional interest that can support the price. Against that, AMG kept its interim dividend unchanged at €0.20 a share, a reminder that cash returns are not yet growing.

    Institutional buying is a genuine positive, but the flat dividend is the counterweight.

REalloys Inc. (ALOY)

Q3 2026

REalloys Advances U.S. Rare Earth Supply Chain as China Curbs Bite

  • China's export curbs create supply gap China's export restrictions on heavy rare earths like dysprosium and terbium are squeezing global supply, pushing prices for non-Chinese material to 3-4x Chinese levels. REalloys, as a non-Chinese supplier with exclusive offtake and a new metallization plant, stands to benefit from higher prices and surging demand.

    This is the core supply-side force driving ALOY's value: China's restrictions create a shortage that REalloys is positioned to fill.

  • U.S. Army selects REalloys for Tooele plant REalloys was conditionally chosen by the U.S. Army to build and operate heavy rare earth processing facilities at Tooele Army Depot. This secures a strategic site and long-term government demand, with no taxpayer subsidies, and aligns with the 2027 Pentagon ban on Chinese materials.

    This is a major new demand catalyst: a direct government partnership that validates REalloys' technology and locks in future revenue.

  • REalloys builds integrated North American supply chain REalloys is assembling a mine-to-magnet supply chain through feedstock deals (Saskatchewan, Greenland), a metallization facility, and a magnet partnership with JS Link. It raised ~$100 million to accelerate this, positioning itself as a key non-Chinese supplier as Pentagon sourcing rules tighten.

    This shows the company's execution on its strategy, which underpins its long-term growth and competitive edge.

  • Q2 revenue up 83%, but net loss widens REalloys reported 83% revenue growth to $0.8 million, driven by its Ohio facility, and said it is fully funded for upgrades. However, net loss widened to $36.8 million due to non-cash stock compensation. The market focused on the growth and funding, sending shares up 13.7%.

    This is the latest financial update, showing both progress and costs, and explains the recent stock move.
