ASP Isotopes Inc. has recently announced the successful approval of its proposed acquisition of Renergen Limited by an overwhelming 99.80% of voting shareholders. The acquisition aims to create a global leader in the production of critical and strategically important materials, including electronic gases such as helium, various fluorinated products, and isotopically enriched gases.
The transaction is expected to be highly accretive, with the goal of generating over $300 million in EBITDA by 2030. This is anticipated to be driven by a mix of isotopes, helium, and LNG sales into the South African energy market, based on management's current estimates, expectations, and assumptions regarding the execution of ASP Isotopes' and Renergen's business strategies.
The combined group is expected to create a vertically and horizontally integrated supply chain with substantial synergies from 2026. Furthermore, the acquisition is projected to be highly accretive to ASP Isotopes's revenue, EBITDA, earnings per share, and cash flow per share starting from 2026.
Renergen, a public company focused on the production of liquefied helium (LHE) and liquefied natural gas (LNG), is funded by the United States government given helium’s strategic significance. The combination of Renergen and ASP Isotopes aims to address supply chain stability, particularly for the semiconductor and electronics industry, positioning the group well for the global AI revolution.
Commenting on the proposed combination, Paul Mann, Chairman and CEO of ASP Isotopes, expressed excitement, stating that the combination of the two companies will create a company with immense strategic value and a vital part of a fragile supply chain enabling many industries.
ASP Isotopes Inc. is a development stage advanced materials company dedicated to the production of isotopes for use in multiple industries. The company employs proprietary technology, the aerodynamic separation process ("ASP technology"), and has isotope enrichment facilities in Pretoria, South Africa.
