Ioneer Ltd. has announced it has secured firm commitments for an institutional placement to raise approximately US$50 million (A$72 million) through the issue of around 400 million new shares at A$0.18 per share, representing a 14.3% discount to the company's closing price on 28 January 2026. The placement attracted strong interest from both new and existing shareholders, including several high-quality domestic and international institutions. Proceeds from the placement will be used to accelerate the development of Ioneer’s Rhyolite Ridge Lithium-Boron Project in the U.S., covering long lead items, early works, project readiness, environmental permitting, and general corporate purposes. The new shares will rank equally with existing ordinary shares. Bell Potter Securities and Canaccord Genuity acted as joint lead managers and bookrunners for the placement.
