China's ban on heavy rare earth magnet exports since April 8th has disrupted EV traction motor production. While light rare earth solutions restored July run rates for <15kW motors, higher-power applications remain constrained. Further supply restrictions on light rare earths cannot be ruled out.
One large global EV customer has seen sharp sales decline, impacting volumes. Recovery depends on customer initiatives rather than company actions, creating uncertainty on timing of volume rebound.

Analyst raised questions about tariff cost pass-through vs. absorption and Mexico facility scaling plans. Management deflected, stating only 3-4% revenue impact possible over 12-18 months with no changes to Mexico plans. Customer absorption strategy remains unclear.
