Almonty Launches $300M Share Buyback, Signaling Cash Strength
ALM has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $3.97.
Summary
Almonty announced a new share repurchase program of up to $300 million. The company has a market cap of about $4.35 billion, so this buyback represents roughly 7% of shares outstanding at current prices. This follows a series of positive developments: the Sangdong mine began processing in July, the company joined the Russell 1000/3000 indexes in June, and it raised $800 million in convertible notes. The buyback signals management confidence in cash generation and may support the stock price. Watch for details on the repurchase timeline and funding source.
