Summary
Alpha HPA Limited has successfully completed a fully underwritten equity raising of A$225 million via a two-tranche placement to support the construction and commercialisation of Stage 2 of the HPA First Project. This capital raising was largely supported by significant demand from existing shareholders and new institutional investors, with substantial backing from the National Reconstruction Fund Corporation (NRFC), AustralianSuper, and Orica Limited. The funds will be used to expand the manufacturing capacity of high purity aluminas and related products, establishing Australia's first large-scale capability in this domain. The placement includes an unconditional tranche of A$105 million and a conditional tranche of A$120 million, subject to shareholder approval. The process is complemented by a Share Purchase Plan offering to eligible shareholders, providing further investment opportunities at a discounted share price.
