ASP Isotopes Inc. NASDAQ: ASPI ("ASPI," or the "Company"), an advanced materials company dedicated to the development of technology and processes designed to produce isotopes used in multiple industries, today released the following letter to stockholders from its Chairman and CEO, Paul Mann.

ASP Isotopes Inc. NASDAQ:ASPI(“ASPI” 或 “公司”)是一家致力於開發用於生產用於多個行業的同位素的技術和工藝的先進材料公司,今天發佈了其董事長兼首席執行官保羅·曼恩致股東的以下信函。

Dear Fellow Stockholder,

尊敬的各位股東,

In light of the considerable progress made since my last shareholder letter approximately six months ago, and with our Annual Report on Form 10K for 2023 having just been filed, I wanted to personally communicate with you today to highlight some of our recent key milestones and discuss our future goals.

鑑於自大約六個月前我上次致股東信函以來取得了長足的進展,而且我們剛剛提交了2023年10K表年度報告,我今天想親自與您溝通,重點介紹我們最近的一些關鍵里程碑並討論我們的未來目標。

  • Annual Report on Form 10-K was filed with 2023 annual results largely in line with expectations
  • Current balance sheet and available cash are at their strongest since the inception of the Company
  • The Company's first commercial isotopes plant started processing raw materials for the anticipated production of enriched isotopes around mid-year
  • The Company signed a purchase agreement for the supply of highly enriched silicon-28, for use in next-generation semiconductors capable of enabling quantum computing and artificial intelligence
  • The Company signed a contract with a U.S.-based SMR (Small Modular Reactor) company, pursuant to which the Company will engage in certain activities related to preliminary engineering design and planning for an enrichment facility for the production of nuclear fuels that are expected to be used in next-generation nuclear reactors
  • Construction underway of first quantum enrichment facility, focused on producing Ytterbium-176, an important feedstock used in the production of Lutetium 177 which is the active component of Novartis' potential blockbuster for the treatment of prostate cancer Pluvicto.
  • PET Labs FDG production grew 32% year on year in 2023 over 2022.
  • 10-K表年度報告已提交,2023年年度業績基本符合預期
  • 當前資產負債表和可用現金處於自公司成立以來的最高水平
  • 該公司的第一家商用同位素工廠在年中左右開始加工原材料,用於預期的富集同位素的生產
  • 該公司簽署了供應高濃縮硅28的購買協議,用於能夠實現量子計算和人工智能的下一代半導體
  • 該公司與一家總部位於美國的SMR(小型模塊化反應堆)公司簽訂了合同,根據該合同,該公司將從事某些與濃縮設施的初步工程設計和規劃有關的活動,該濃縮設施用於生產預計將用於下一代核反應堆的核燃料
  • 第一座量子濃縮設施正在建設中,重點生產釔-176,這是生產Lutetium 177的重要原料,Lutetium 177是諾華潛在的治療前列腺癌大片Pluvicto的活性成分。
  • 與 2022 年相比,PET Labs FDG 產量在 2023 年同比增長 32%。

Tight control on operating expenses and strengthened balance sheet on heels of recent capital raises.

在最近籌集資金之後,嚴格控制運營支出,資產負債表得到加強。

During 2023 we had $(4.7) million in operating free cash flow, slightly lower expense than the $(5) million that we had been targeting. We will continue to maintain a tight control on all expenses.

2023 年,我們的運營自由現金流爲(470)萬美元,略低於我們設定的目標(500)萬美元。我們將繼續嚴格控制所有開支。

We finished the year with cash on the balance sheet of $7.9 million. In February 2024, our wholly owned subsidiary – Quantum Leap Energy LLC – raised over $20 million via a convertible note offering, with Ocean Wall Limited acting as Placement Agent. In addition, this week we received approximately $5.5 million in gross proceeds from the exercise of warrants held by an institutional investor. Thus, our current cash balance is very strong, enabling focused accelerated development of new technologies.

今年年底,資產負債表上的現金爲790萬美元。2024年2月,我們的全資子公司——Quantum Leap Energy LLC——通過發行可轉換票據籌集了超過2000萬美元的資金,海牆有限公司擔任配售代理。此外,本週我們從行使機構投資者持有的認股權證中獲得了約550萬美元的總收益。因此,我們目前的現金餘額非常強勁,可以集中加快新技術的開發。

We have a large backlog of interest from customers for many different isotopes and we expect to fund future isotope enrichment facilities using primarily funding provided by those customers combined with additional debt. With proof of concept for the ASP process now demonstrated and revenue generation from the sale of enriched isotopes anticipated this year, we have begun discussions with multiple potential debt providers.

我們有許多不同同位素的客戶積壓了大量利息,我們預計將主要使用這些客戶提供的資金加上額外的債務,爲未來的同位素濃縮設施提供資金。隨着ASP流程的概念驗證現已得到證實,預計今年富集同位素的銷售將帶來收入,我們已經開始與多個潛在的債務提供者進行討論。
