Elmet Group reports Q3 earnings and announces $450 million government investment for expansion

Elmet Group posted third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $79.6 million, up 44.2% year over year, and net income of $8.3 million, or $0.24 per diluted share. Operating expenses rose to $12.9 million from $7.7 million, while the order backlog expanded to $347.4 million. The Department of War committed $450 million, with an initial $200 million draw, to fund facility upgrades and a new tungsten‑processing joint venture.

The company said it will allocate about $165 million of the government funding to modernize facilities, and expects its new trading division to eventually generate a revenue run rate of a few hundred million dollars once supply ramps are in place. The earnings beat and the large investment could support higher future cash flow, while the stock fell 4.0% after the results.
