SOUTH BOSTON, Va., April 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IperionX Limited (Nasdaq | ASX: IPX) is pleased to present its quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2026. Highlights during and subsequent to the end of the quarter include: Operations – Titanium powder production Virginia operations transitioned to a 24/7 production schedule during the quarter, marking the move from commissioning into continuous operations All HAMR™ powder production systems have been commissioned and are now in ramp-up, with IperionX targeting run-rate production of ~200 tpa of titanium powder by end-CY2026 HAMR™ powder production increased during the quarter, reaching ~4.2 metric tons in March, equivalent to approximately 50 tpa annualized. This represents the early-stage ramp rate, and throughput is expected to build as product mix shifts toward higher-volume angular powders and powder-to-part manufacturing Development of GenX™, IperionX's next-generation continuous HAMR™ platform, advanced during the quarter. GenX™ is designed to deliver a step-change in capital efficiency, operating cost and throughput relative to current batch processing system Operations – Titanium product manufacturing Powder metallurgy scale-up continued during the quarter, including optimization of the 100-ton uniaxial press, commissioning of the cold isostatic press for larger-format titanium components, and transition toward 24/7 operations for defense-related titanium fastener production Advanced six-axis 300-ton SACMI powder metallurgy press was installed during the quarter. The press delivers higher compaction force, multi-axis movement, greater complexity of part geometry, improved repeatability, and the ability to support higher-rate production. Commissioning is planned for the June quarter for customer engagements requiring more complex or higher-volume titanium press-sinter-forge components Additional HSPT™ sintering furnaces are scheduled for commissioning in the June quarter. These additions are expected to remove sintering as a current production bottleneck and accelerate customer qualification timelines Additive manufacturing capability expanded during the quarter, including the operation and retrofit of additional binder jet systems Customers IperionX continues to execute a tiered go-to-market strategy that initially prioritizes higher-value engineered products, where the competitive ad...
