WASHINGTON, Nov. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ASP Isotopes Inc. NASDAQ: ASPI ("ASP Isotopes” or the “Company”), an advanced materials company dedicated to the development of technology and processes for the production of isotopes for use in multiple industries, today issued the following statement in response to a short seller report published on November 26, 2024 by Fuzzy Panda Research (“Fuzzy Panda”). Fuzzy Panda is a self-proclaimed short seller who stands to realize significant gains if the price of ASP Isotopes’s stock declines.

Based upon ASP Isotopes’s and its legal counsel’s preliminary review and evaluation of the report, the Company believes the report includes speculative conjecture and claims that are inaccurate or filled with innuendo in an attempt to mislead investors about ASP Isotopes’s technology, leadership and future growth. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s public filings made with the SEC.

ASP Isotopes is in the process of commissioning three isotope enrichment facilities in South Africa and has hosted commercial partners and investors at these facilities. The first facility is scheduled to enrich Carbon-14 for use in healthcare and agrochemicals. The second facility is scheduled to enrich Silicon-28, which the Company believes will enable faster, more efficient semiconductors for use in artificial intelligence and quantum computing. The third facility is scheduled to enrich Ytterbium-176, a critically important raw material used in the production of radio-oncology therapies.

ASP Isotopes values transparency and open communication. Canaccord Genuity’s analyst, George Gianarikas, will host a fire side chat with ASP Isotopes’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Paul Mann, at 10am EST on November 27, 2024. Please contact your Canaccord Genuity sales representative for dial in details.

About ASP Isotopes Inc.

ASP Isotopes Inc. is a development stage advanced materials company dedicated to the development of technology and processes to produce isotopes for use in multiple industries. The Company employs proprietary technology, the Aerodynamic Separation Process (“ASP technology”). The Company’s initial focus is on producing and commercializing highly enriched isotopes for the healthcare and technology industries. The Company also plans to enrich isotopes for the nuclear energy sector using Quantum Enrichment technology that the Company is developing. The Company has isotope enrichment facilities in Pretoria, South Africa, dedicated to the enrichment of isotopes of elements with a low atomic mass (light isotopes).

There is a growing demand for isotopes such as Silicon-28 for enabling quantum computing; Molybdenum-100, Molybdenum-98, Zinc-68, Ytterbium-176, and Nickel-64 for new, emerging healthcare applications, as well as Chlorine-37, Lithium-6, Lithium-7 and Uranium-235 for green energy applications. The ASP Technology (Aerodynamic Separation Process) is ideal for enriching low and heavy atomic mass molecules. For more information, please visit www.aspisotopes.com.
