Almonty Industries Update Note August 2025
Highlights from the report include:
- Second Quarter 2025 Marked by Strategic U.S. Defense Offtake, Nasdaq Capital Market Listing, and Continued Advancement Toward Sangdong Mine Production: Almonty Industries delivered a quarter marked by meaningful operational progress, strategic positioning gains, and a reinforced financial platform to support the next stage of growth. A key development was the signing of a binding offtake agreement with Tungsten Parts Wyoming, Inc. and Metal-Tech Ltd. to supply a minimum of 40 metric tonnes of tungsten oxide per month exclusively for U.S. defense applications. This agreement not only secures long-term demand in a high-value end market but also emphasizes external confidence in the Company’s asset quality and delivery capabilities. Almonty also received bipartisan recognition from the U.S. House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party for its role in strengthening U.S. critical mineral supply chains, with specific emphasis on the Sangdong mine’s strategic significance. Post-quarter end, Almonty successfully completed an upsized U.S. public offering of common shares, raising US$90 million in gross proceeds and securing a Nasdaq Capital Market listing under the ticker “ALM.” This strengthened balance sheet provides the resources needed to complete the ramp-up of the high-grade Sangdong mine and advance broader growth initiatives. With construction now complete and commissioning activities underway at Sangdong, initial production remains on track for the second half of 2025, positioning Almonty to potentially deliver material volume growth, enhanced cash flow visibility, and an expanded role in the global tungsten supply chain.
- Q2 2025 Financial Performance Impacted by Temporary Production Diversion and Non-Cash Revaluation Losses; Strong Cash Position and Post-Quarter Nasdaq Financing Strengthen Growth Outlook: Almonty reported revenue of $7.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing a 9.4% decline from $8.0 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to slightly lower tungsten concentrate sales and the temporary diversion of personnel to Level 4 preparation activities, which have since been completed, allowing production to normalize in the third quarter. Operating expenses rose sharply to $11.2 million from $2.5 million in the prior-year quarter, driven mainly by higher non-cash share-based compensation expenses and costs related to the Company’s planned redomiciling. The Company recorded a net loss of $58.2 million for the quarter, compared to $1.8 million a year earlier, largely reflecting significant non-cash charges. These included a $38.1 million loss from the significant upward revaluation of warrants and a $6.9 million loss from the revaluation of embedded derivative liabilities. We note that these IFRS-required adjustments are non-cash in nature and do not affect operating cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS) was negative $4.8 million versus breakeven in the same period last year. As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $24.7 million, up from $16.9 million at March 31, 2025. The increase was mainly due to $8.4 million in proceeds from warrant exercises, partially offset by ongoing investment in mining assets at the Sangdong Project in South Korea. Subsequent to quarter-end, Almonty further strengthened its balance sheet by raising US$90 million in gross proceeds from a public offering in the United States, positioning the Company to advance Sangdong towards commercialization and support broader growth initiatives.
- Valuation: The updated NI 43-101 technical report on Sangdong formalizes resources, reserves, and the Phase 1 mine plan, confirming project timelines, reducing technical uncertainty, and supporting a reduction in the project risk. This enhanced technical clarity is further supported by Almonty’s long-term, floor-priced offtake agreements with established defense, aerospace, and high-tech customers, which provide strong cash flow visibility while leaving upside uncapped. At the same time, the sharp rise in tungsten prices through 2025 places spot levels well above contractual floors, significantly enhancing near-term EBITDA generation. Following its Nasdaq listing and an improved liquidity position, Almonty is well placed to broaden its investor base and strengthen access to growth capital. Collectively, these factors yield a de-risked operating profile and improved economic outlook, justifying a meaningful upward revision in Almonty’s overall valuation. We have accordingly updated our valuation model to reflect the latest financial results and the recently concluded U.S. capital raise, arriving at an updated valuation estimate of $7.60 per share, contingent on successful execution by the company.
