Almonty Industries (ISIN CA0203987072) stock is back in the spotlight after the tungsten producer reported a sharp earnings turnaround in the second quarter of 2026 and attracted fresh analyst support, while shares continue to trade below their recent highs as of September 3, 2026.
Q2 2026 numbers show a sharp turnaround
According to an in-depth quarterly review published on September 2, 2026, Almonty Industries reported revenue of CAD 43.0 million in the second quarter of 2026, a jump of 498% compared with CAD 7.2 million in the same quarter a year earlier.
The same analysis notes that mining operations generated a segment operating profit of CAD 26.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, after an operating loss in the prior-year quarter, and that adjusted EBITDA reached CAD 17.6 million for the period, improving by more than CAD 22 million year-on-year.
That review highlights that Almonty’s mining operating margin exceeded 60% of revenue in the second quarter of 2026, underlining the leverage in the business model when tungsten prices are favorable and the Sangdong mine in South Korea ramps up as planned.
The quarterly discussion also points out that operating cash flow for the first half of 2026 swung from an outflow of CAD 14.9 million in the prior-year period to an inflow of CAD 31.6 million, giving investors a clearer picture of the improvement in day-to-day cash generation.
Balance sheet strength and buyback program
Alongside the earnings turnaround, Almonty Industries’ balance sheet has changed significantly. A detailed capital markets commentary describes how the company closed an oversubscribed convertible note offering in June 2026, raising USD 800 million at a 2.25% coupon with a maturity in 2031.
That same commentary states that cash balances climbed from CAD 268.4 million at the end of 2025 to approximately CAD 1.2 billion as of June 30, 2026, effectively quadrupling the company’s cash position and creating room to advance multiple projects at the same time.
In mid-August 2026, Almonty’s board approved a share repurchase program with a total volume of up to USD 300 million over 36 months, allowing the company to buy back up to 14.4 million shares, which corresponds to about 5% of the shares outstanding at that time.
For investors, this combination of strong cash generation, a larger cash pile and a buyback authorization signals confidence in the medium-term development of the business and adds an additional layer of support for Almonty Industries stock.

Analyst coverage and stock performance
Jefferies initiated coverage of Almonty Industries with a Buy rating and a price target of USD 26.25, emphasizing the company’s strategic role in Western tungsten supply-chain development and the leverage its portfolio offers to the reshoring of critical materials, as reported on September 3, 2026.
According to the same coverage, Almonty Industries stock has surged more than 300% over the past twelve months and is up around 100% year-to-date, but still trades about 28% below its 52-week high of USD 24.41, suggesting further upside potential if the company delivers on its production plans.
Market data snapshots compiled by a major financial portal show Almonty Industries shares at approximately USD 17.67 as of September 2, 2026, implying a market capitalization in the range of USD 5.1 billion and highlighting how much the equity value has grown compared with mid-2025 levels when the stock traded below USD 4.00.
An earlier price commentary from a German-language source noted that the shares closed at EUR 15.07 on a recent European trading day, down 1.6% on that session but up 38% over the prior 30 days and roughly 90% since the start of the year, placing the stock about 27% below a 52-week high of EUR 20.61 reached in April 2026 and underlining both the momentum and remaining distance to peak levels.
Sangdong and the tungsten growth story
Almonty Industries positions itself as one of the largest tungsten producers outside China, centered on its flagship Sangdong mine in South Korea, which is described as one of the largest and longest-life tungsten mines outside China and forms the backbone of its Western-aligned supply strategy.
Recent analyst and industry commentary highlights Sangdong Phase I commercial production as the key proof point for the business, with Phase II planned to double throughput to 1.2 million tonnes per year and potentially supply about 40% of non-China tungsten demand once fully ramped.
The company also operates the Panasqueira mine, which contributes premium low-impurity tungsten concentrate, and is advancing the Browns Lake project in the United States, giving it a domestic footprint in a critical minerals segment that is closely watched by policymakers and defense planners.
In addition to upstream mining, Almonty Industries plans to build a nano tungsten oxide facility with an annual capacity of 4,000 tonnes, which would move the group further downstream in the value chain and allow it to capture margins beyond raw concentrate sales.
Tungsten products and industrial demand
One representative product area for Almonty Industries is tungsten concentrate and related tungsten materials delivered to industrial customers, which are used in hard metals, cutting tools and defense applications that require high durability and heat resistance.
As Sangdong, Panasqueira and Browns Lake contribute more material, the company is positioned to supply tungsten to tool manufacturers, automotive and aerospace suppliers, and other industrial users who depend on stable, high-grade sources outside China.
Almonty Industries stock and investor view
Almonty Industries stock, listed on NASDAQ under the ticker ALM and also traded in Europe via various venues, stood at about USD 17.67 as of September 2, 2026, reflecting a sharp recovery from levels around USD 3.93 in mid-2025 and leaving room to close the gap to its 52-week highs if the company’s growth plans continue to unfold as outlined.
