Tronox (ISIN GB00BJT16S69) and JX Advanced Metals agreed on September 29, 2026, to fund USD 32.0 million in studies for rare earth projects. Tronox stock was trading at EUR 3.02 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026, at 12:30 p.m. CEST.

Three milestones shape the story

On August 5, 2026, Tronox reported second-quarter revenue of USD 868.0 million, up 19.00 percent from the prior-year quarter, while adjusted EBITDA was USD 73.0 million. Benzinga reported that the company posted a USD 171.0 million net loss, including a USD 103.0 million tax valuation allowance.

On September 29, 2026, Tronox said it and JX Advanced Metals would finance the work equally. The proposed Australian and US facilities could produce up to 10,000 tonnes of rare earth oxides annually.

On October 5, 2026, PR Newswire reported that Tronox scheduled its third-quarter results for November 4, 2026, after the market close, with a webcast on November 5, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. ET.

What does the earnings outlook mean?

The next operating test is adjusted EBITDA guidance of USD 95.0 million to USD 115.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared with USD 73.0 million in the second quarter. That range would require a measurable improvement in profitability even as management expects seasonal volume pressure in titanium dioxide.

Rare earth plans add a second track

The JXAM agreement broadens Tronox's strategy beyond titanium dioxide and zircon, but the USD 32.0 million commitment is for feasibility work rather than construction. The proposed projects therefore add a development option while the near-term investment case still depends on pricing, volumes and the November results.
