(“EM&T” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EMAT), a U.S.-based critical\nmaterials and advanced manufacturing company, today provided initial revenue\nguidance for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The Company expects revenue of $5\nmillion to $8 million for fiscal 2026 and $400 million to $460 million for\nfiscal 2027.\n\nThe two-year guidance reflects EM&T's expected transition from its current\nproduction base in 2026 to the first full year benefiting from its expansion\nin Pohang, Republic of Korea. Thirteen additional ULVAC sintered magnet\nproduction machines, placed on binding purchase orders, are scheduled for\ndelivery and installation in November 2026 and are expected to increase annual\nrare earth magnet production capacity from approximately 1,000 metric tons to\napproximately 10,000 metric tons, including approximately 6,000 metric tons of\nhigh-performance sintered magnets. The expansion is supported by agreed\nprincipal terms with Korea Electric Power Corporation to increase electrical\ninfrastructure serving the Pohang operations from 130 megawatts to\napproximately 750 megawatts, approximately 1.3 million square feet of adjacent\nland to be acquired from the Pohang City Government, and conditional approval\nof an approximately $20.7 million grant from Pohang City and Gyeongbuk\nProvince.\n\nThe outlook is based on management's current assessment of demand from\nexisting customers and the anticipated conversion of prospective customer\nopportunities into orders and shipments, together with assumptions regarding\nequipment commissioning, customer qualification, production ramp, feedstock\navailability, working capital, product mix, pricing and shipment timing. EM&T\nhas secured non-China NdPr metal under its agreement with Senri Trading Co.,\nLtd., sourced from SRE Vietnam, and has taken delivery of its first shipment\nunder that arrangement. The Company has also announced Tier-1 OEM quality\ncertifications across six grades of high-performance sintered NdFeB magnets,\ndrawing on more than 18 years of commercial-scale rare earth processing and\nmagnet-making experience. The fiscal 2027 range reflects anticipated\nutilization during the production ramp and does not represent the revenue\npotential of the planned capacity at full utilization.\n\n“Providing guidance for both years gives investors a clearer view of the\nfinancial progression we expect as the Pohang expansion moves from equipment\ninstallation and commissioning in late 2026 into its first full year of\noperation in 2027,” said Christopher Clower, Chief Financial Officer and\nChief Operating Officer of EM&T. “The ranges reflect the demand and\noperating assumptions we can reasonably incorporate today, including the pace\nof customer conversion, feedstock availability and the working capital\nrequired to support higher throughput. The guidance reflects anticipated\nutilization during the production ramp rather than full utilization of planned\ncapacity, and we intend to update the market as our visibility improves.”\n\n“January 1, 2027 marks a significant change in sourcing requirements for the\nU.S. defense industrial base,” said Andrew F. Knaggs, President of EM&T.\n“For neodymium-iron-boron magnets, DFARS 252.225-7052 will extend the\nrestriction across the entire mine-to-magnet supply chain, while the July 2026\nExecutive Order substantially tightened the conditions for waivers and\ndirected faster qualification of compliant sources. EM&T's existing Korean\nmanufacturing platform, non-China feedstock arrangements and planned capacity\nexpansion are designed to help address that need at commercial scale while\ncontinuing to serve our established global customer base.”\n\n“Delivering against this guidance is fundamentally a matter of execution,”\nsaid Frank Moon, Chief Executive Officer of EM&T. “Our priorities are to\ninstall and commission the additional equipment, bring the supporting facility\nand power expansion online, secure the feedstock required for higher\nproduction volumes, complete required customer qualifications and convert\ndemand into shipments. Pohang allows us to scale from an established operating\nbase, with an experienced engineering team and long-standing customer\nrelationships. The operating record and capabilities we build there will also\nsupport our planned expansion in the United States and continued growth beyond\n2027.”\n\nIn connection with its expansion, EM&T has engaged an international public\nrelations and strategic communications firm to broaden the Company's global\nmarket visibility, develop international partnerships, and strengthen its\npress and digital communications presence. The engagement is intended to\nexpand awareness of the Company among institutional audiences, industry\npartners and financial media as EM&T moves through its capacity expansion and\ninto fiscal 2027.\n\nAbout Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp.\n\nEvolution Metals & Technologies Corp.
