MP Materials Corp., including its subsidiaries (the "Company," "MP Materials," "we," "our," and "us"), is the largest producer of rare earth materials in the Western Hemisphere. Headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Company owns and operates the Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine and Processing Facility ("Mountain Pass") located near Mountain Pass, San Bernardino County, California, the only rare earth mining and processing site of scale in North America. Additionally, the Company owns and operates a rare earth metal, alloy and magnet manufacturing facility in Fort Worth, Texas ("Independence" or the "Independence Facility"), where the Company produces and sells magnetic precursor products and commenced the manufacturing of neodymium-iron-boron ("NdFeB") permanent magnets in December 2025. The Company’s operations are organized into two reportable segments: Materials and Magnetics.
The Materials segment represents the upstream and midstream operations of the Company, which primarily consist of Mountain Pass, a fully integrated mining and refining facility producing refined rare earth oxides and related products. The Materials segment generates revenue primarily from sales of neodymium-praseodymium ("NdPr") oxide and metal, primarily sold to customers in Japan, South Korea, and broader Asia. The Materials segment historically generated the majority of its revenue from sales of rare earth concentrate primarily to a distributor that, in turn, typically sold that product to refiners in China.
The Magnetics segment represents the downstream magnet manufacturing and related operations of the Company, which currently consist of the Independence Facility, a fully integrated metal, alloy, and magnet manufacturing plant. The Magnetics segment began generating revenue from sales of magnetic precursor products to General Motors Company (NYSE: GM) ("GM") in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2025.
On July 9, 2025, the Company entered into definitive agreements with the United States Department of War (the "DoW"), formerly known as the Department of Defense, (collectively, the "DoW Transaction Agreements") establishing a transformational public-private partnership with the DoW to accelerate the build-out of an end-to-end U.S. rare earth magnet supply chain and reduce foreign dependency (the "DoW Transactions"). This partnership is further described in Note 3 , "Public-Private Partnership with U.S. Department of War," in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which includes certain defined terms related to the DoW Transaction Agreements.
