On September 25, Almonty Industries Inc. (NASDAQ Uplisting) fell 8.04% in regular trading, trading at $12.52/share, with turnover of approximately $34.93 million.

On the news front, Goldman Sachs initiated coverage of the company with a Neutral rating and a $13 price target, significantly below the analyst consensus mean target of $25.43. This also contrasts sharply with Jefferies' Buy rating and $26.25 target initiated earlier this month, as well as Oppenheimer's Outperform rating with a $25 target. Goldman Sachs' conservative valuation, roughly half of the prevailing consensus, exerted notable downward pressure on market sentiment.

Despite the rating headwind, the company has recently achieved several operational milestones. Its flagship Sangdong tungsten mine in South Korea received final operational certification for commercial production in September, with over 90% of Phase I output covered by a 21-year offtake agreement with Global Tungsten & Powders. The company also signed a new long-term tungsten supply deal with Sandvik's Wolfram Bergbau unit and previously approved a $300 million share buyback program.
