IperionX Limited (IperionX) (NASDAQ: IPX, ASX: IPX) is pleased to announce that it has completed a placement to existing institutional investors to raise gross proceeds of approximately US$16.7 million before costs (“Placement”).

The Placement was led by existing shareholders, B Riley Principal Investments, Fidelity International, Inherent Group, and one of the world’s largest asset managers, confirming their support for IperionX’s plans to re-shore U.S. titanium production, scale IperionX’s patented titanium technologies, advance the Titan Critical Mineral Project and for general corporate purposes.

IperionX’s technology and patent portfolio advisor, Mr. Ray Nimrod, participated in the placement, and is a significant long-term shareholder and advisor to the Company. Ray is a renowned expert in technology patent law, representing a range of leading technology clients, including multiple Fortune 100 companies.

  • US$12.7 million grant from U.S. Department of Defense
  • US$16.7 million from the equity Placement
  • Potential for US$11.5 million in equipment financing from the Export-Import Bank of the United States ("EXIM Bank") ‘China and Transformational Exports Program’ and ‘Make More in America Initiative’

This robust financial position provides a strong platform for IperionX to accelerate plans to re-shore U.S. titanium production with the development of the advanced Titanium Production Facility in Halifax County, Virginia.
