Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp.

Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp. (EMAT) has issued its initial revenue guidance for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The company anticipates revenues of $5 million to $8 million for fiscal 2026 and a significant increase to $400 million to $460 million for fiscal 2027. This substantial growth projection for 2027 is driven by the expected first full year of operation from its expanded rare earth magnet production facility in Pohang, Republic of Korea, which will increase capacity to approximately 10,000 metric tons, including 6,000 metric tons of high-performance sintered magnets. The expansion is supported by infrastructure upgrades, land acquisition, and conditional grants. EMAT has also secured critical non-China feedstock and achieved key quality certifications.
