ASX Announcement
Titomic Achieves Major Milestone Expanding U.S. Operations
with Acquisition of Huntsville Manufacturing Facility
Titomic Limited (ASX: TTT) (‘Titomic’ or ‘Company’), a global leader in
advanced additive manufacturing and cold spray technology, proudly
announces a major milestone in its North American expansion with the
acquisition of a modern 59,000-square-foot facility in the U.S. defense
industrial hub of Huntsville, Alabama.
With a purchase price of US$7.2 million, this strategic investment solidifies
Titomic’s position as an industry leader in high-performance manufacturing
solutions for the aerospace and defense sectors and establishes the facility as
a cutting-edge Innovation Center for Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing. The
center will drive advancements in cold spray technology, fostering research,
development, production, and collaboration with key industry and defense
partners. The facility will be operational with its suite of low (D523), medium
(D623), and high-pressure (TKF) cold spray solutions in Q2 2025.
Financing Secured for U.S. Expansion
Titomic has successfully secured financing for the facility, demonstrating
strong institutional confidence in its vision and operational strength. The
US$5.75 million, 25-year financing agreement was arranged through First
National Bank (Alabama) and has an initial interest rate of 6.5%. This
financing also marks the establishment of a long-term banking relationship
that will support Titomic’s continued growth in the United States.
Andy Whitt, Senior Vice President of First National Bank, expressed
enthusiasm for the partnership commenting, “We are elated to support
Titomic in acquiring this extraordinary factory asset, which is extremely
compatible with their business. Titomic’s innovative technology and strategic
presence in Huntsville position them for significant growth, and we are proud
to be a part of their journey.”
Strategic Investment from Innovate Alabama
Further strengthening Titomic’s U.S. presence, and as part of collateral for the
loan, the company has been provided with a $1 million surety in support from
Innovate Alabama (a public-private initiative focused on entrepreneurship,
technology and innovation in Alabama). This surety serves to bolster the
company’s commitment to innovation and economic development in the
region. Furthermore, this investment in Huntsville will enable the acceleration
of Titomic’s manufacturing capabilities, drive job creation, and enhance
collaboration with local research institutions and industry partners.
