US based ASP Isotopes completes acquisition of Renergen

ASP Isotopes Inc. (Nasdaq: ASPI) has successfully closed its previously announced acquisition of Renergen Limited, creating a combined company that is focused on the production of critical isotopes and helium. This strategic acquisition integrates ASP Isotopes' advanced enrichment technologies with Renergen's established helium and natural gas operations, positioning the combined company to address escalating demand in high-technology sectors.

ASP Isotopes, with the acquisition of Renergen, is expected to become a global provider of liquid helium, one of the most sought-after critical minerals globally. Renergen’s key asset is the Virginia Gas project, where significant Helium concentrations have been recorded. This project has benefited from $40 million of US government funding pursuant to a finance agreement with the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (U.S. DFC) and is expected to further benefit from an additional $500 million of senior debt funding from U.S. DFC and a $250 million debt facility from Standard Bank SA to expand plant production capacity in South Africa. The U.S. DFC partners with the private sector to advance U.S. foreign policy and strengthen national security by mobilizing private capital around the world.

"This acquisition establishes ASP Isotopes as a future provider of critical materials worldwide, poised for substantial expansion in revenue streams and enhanced profitability," stated Paul Mann, Executive Chairman of ASP Isotopes. "We are implementing a structured integration plan designed to yield measurable long-term results, including anticipated synergies that will support our long-term growth objectives."

"On behalf of the board, we are pleased with the successful completion of the business combination between ASP Isotopes and Renergen," noted Paul Mann, Executive Chairman of ASP Isotopes. "We anticipate the combined company will emerge as a leading global provider in the critical materials domain."

Paul Mann added, "In a market characterized by supply constraints and increasing consolidation, ASP Isotopes maintains a defined strategic direction, supported by our innovative enrichment processes. Our capabilities in isotope production, combined with Renergen's helium resources, offer distinct advantages. This integration consolidates our operations, with the goal of delivering solutions for customers in semiconductors, quantum computing technologies, and energy sectors."

Stefano Marani, Chief Executive Officer of Renergen and newly appointed President, Electronics and Space at ASP Isotopes, commented, "The completion of this transaction marks an exciting new chapter, combining complementary strengths to deliver enhanced supply chain stability for critical sectors, such as semiconductors and electronics. This integrated platform positions us exceptionally well to capitalize on the global demand driven by advancements in AI, quantum technologies, and clean energy."

ASP Isotopes intends to conduct a Virtual Investor Update at the end of January to present the combined company, with details to be announced in the near future.
