Ivanhoe Electric Inc. , a U.S.-based minerals exploration and development company, said it has priced its initial public offering of 14.39 million shares of its common stock at a price of US$11.75 per share.
The company expects gross proceeds from the offering to be approximately US$169.1 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.
In addition, Ivanhoe Electric has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 2.16 million shares of common stock at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions.
The shares are expected to begin trading on the NYSE American and the Toronto Stock Exchange on June 28, 2022 under the ticker symbol "IE". The offering is expected to close on June 30, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.
Ivanhoe Electric plans to use the net proceeds of the offering to fund certain payments to acquire or maintain its mineral and property rights to its material and key mineral properties, to further its metals exploration activities at all of its mineral properties, to construct and deploy additional sets of its Typhoon electrical pulse-powered geophysical surveying transmitter technology, as well as working capital and general and administrative costs.
