Reaffirms $400 Million to $460 Million FY2027 Revenue Guidance, Unveils Eight Sintered Magnet Grades Covering an Estimated 75% of Global NdFeB Revenue, and Moves to Answer U.S. Army Call for Rare Earth Magnets","author":"Globe Newswire","published_at":"2026-10-14T12:00:02.136Z","article_body":"MIAMI, Oct. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp.\n(“EM&T” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EMAT), a U.S.-based critical\nmaterials and advanced manufacturing company, today announced that its\nportfolio of eight sintered neodymium-iron-boron (“NdFeB”) rare earth\nmagnet grades represents what the Company estimates to be approximately 75% of\nglobal sintered NdFeB magnet revenue and approximately 52% of global volume\n— placing EM&T squarely at the commercial center of the rare earth magnet\nmarket. The Company also reaffirmed its fiscal 2027 revenue guidance of $400\nmillion to $460 million, announced that it expects to begin acquiring\nequipment to produce samarium cobalt (“SmCo”) magnets, the magnet class\nrelied upon across U.S. military systems, by mid-2027, and confirmed it will\nrespond to the U.S. Army’s sources sought notice for rare earth magnets.\n\nThe portfolio — N42SH, N48SH, N46SH, N35SH, N45H, N42H, N48M and N50M —\nspans the medium-, high- and super-high-temperature classes that drive the\nbulk of global magnet demand. Seven of the eight grades have already completed\ncustomer certification, led by N42SH, the single largest grade in the global\nmarket at an estimated 23% of sintered NdFeB revenue, now in commercial\nproduction at EM&T’s operations in Pohang, South Korea. The eighth grade,\nN48SH, is in the final stages of customer certification. Market share figures\nare Company estimates.\n\nThe portfolio’s revenue share exceeds its volume share by design: it is\ndeliberately weighted toward the premium high-temperature grades that command\nthe highest prices in the market. Its four super-high-temperature (“SH”)\ngrades, rated to 150°C, incorporate heavy rare earths such as dysprosium and\nterbium to hold their magnetic strength under extreme heat, and alone are\nestimated to represent approximately 49% of global sintered NdFeB revenue on\njust 30% of volume. These are the grades specified for EV traction motors,\nwind turbine generators, aerospace generators and defense actuators — the\nmost demanding, highest-value applications in the industry.\n\nWith certification largely complete, EM&T’s priority for 2027 is scale.\nThirteen additional ULVAC sintered magnet production machines are being\ndelivered to Pohang, where the first 13 of 57 containers of ULVAC equipment\nhave already arrived. The expansion is expected to lift annual capacity to\nmore than 10,000 metric tons, including approximately 6,000 metric tons of\nhigh-performance sintered magnets, as the Company optimizes all eight grades\nfor yield, consistency and throughput. On that foundation, EM&T reaffirms its\nfiscal 2026 revenue guidance of $10 million to $11 million and its fiscal 2027\nrevenue guidance of $400 million to $460 million.\n\nThe planned SmCo line extends EM&T into the magnet class at the heart of U.S.\ndefense systems. SmCo magnets retain their performance at temperatures beyond\nthe reach of NdFeB and deliver superior corrosion resistance and thermal\nstability, making them the standard choice for guidance and control systems,\naerospace actuators, and radar and satellite systems. The timing is\ndeliberate. Effective January 1, 2027, DFARS 252.225-7052 extends its\nrestriction on SmCo magnets across the entire supply chain, from ore through\nfinished magnet, for qualifying U.S. defense deliveries, while samarium itself\nhas been subject to China’s rare earth export licensing controls since April\n2025. Demand for compliant, non-China SmCo supply is building now. The line\nwill draw on the expertise of Kenji Konishi, EM&T’s Head of Magnet\nEngineering Production and former Vice President and Chief Technology Officer\nof JL MAG Rare Earth, whose background spans sintered NdFeB and SmCo magnet\nsystems from alloy design through mass production.\n\nThat demand is already surfacing at the federal level. On September 28, 2026,\nthe U.S. Army Contracting Command, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Tobyhanna\nDivision, issued a sources sought notice to identify potential vendors of rare\nearth magnets, with responses due October 28, 2026. EM&T will respond to the\nnotice.\n\n“EM&T will be answering the U.S. Army’s call for rare earth magnets,”\nsaid Andrew Knaggs, President of EM&T. “In a highly unusual move, the U.S.\nArmy appears to intend to acquire magnets directly for its defense apparatus\nand contractors. With seven customer-certified grades in production in Pohang\nand a SmCo line on the way, we believe EM&T is exactly the kind of supplier\nthat requirement is looking for.”\n\n“Three quarters of the value in the global sintered magnet market sits in\nthe eight grades EM&T produces, and our customers have already certified seven\nof them,” said David Wilcox, Executive Chairman of EM&T. “We did not build\nthis portfolio around the edges of the market. We built it around the center,\nweighted toward the super-high-temperature grades that EV, wind, aerospace and\ndefense customers specify and pay a premium for. 2027 is about execution:\noptimizing those eight grades as our new ULVAC capacity takes Pohang past\n10,000 metric tons, and adding samarium cobalt, the magnet the U.S. defense\nindustrial base depends on where heat and stability matter most. With DFARS\nreaching SmCo magnets on January 1, 2027 and samarium already under Chinese\nexport licensing, demand for compliant supply is building now, and EM&T\nintends to meet it at commercial scale.”\n\n“We are growing, and the proof is on the ground in Pohang,” said Frank\nMoon, Chief Executive Officer of EM&T. “The first 13 of 57 containers of\nULVAC equipment have arrived, seven of our eight grades carry customer\ncertification, and our fiscal 2027 revenue guidance of $400 million to $460\nmillion stands. These are not projections — they are milestones, and each\none reflects production that is already scaling.”\n\n“The grades in this portfolio are the product of years of development in\nhigh-performance sintered magnets, a segment approximately ten times the size\nof the bonded magnet market,” said Kenji Konishi, Head of Magnet Engineering\nProduction at EM&T. “That development is now in production. We are growing\noutput of grades our customers have already certified, and our SmCo line will\nbe built on the same engineering foundation.”\n\nAbout Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp.\n\nEvolution Metals & Technologies Corp.
