History
IsoEnergy raised cash in 2025 and 2026 to drill Canadian uranium projects, bought Australia's Wiluna project, and swapped its Utah mines for a one-third stake in DISA Uranium.
2025: Funding the push
IsoEnergy began 2025 with its sights on exploration, and it moved to pay for it. After listing on the NYSE American on May 5, 2025, it signed an "at-the-market" program on June 4 with Virtu, letting it sell up to C$75 million of new shares over time at its own discretion. The company reported C$46.1 million in cash and C$35.1 million in marketable securities at March 31, 2025. The record does not say how much has been sold under the program.
A bought deal followed. Underwriters agreed on June 16 to buy 5,000,000 shares at C$10.00, and on June 24 it closed at 5,121,500 shares for C$51,215,000. NexGen Energy, an existing insider, took 1,200,000 of them and was expected to hold about 30.9% afterward. Shares on issue stood at 54,928,896 at the end of 2025.
2025: Dorado drilling
The money supported drilling on the 50/50 Dorado joint venture with Purepoint, which Purepoint operates. In July, the first holes at the Q48 target hit uranium, with probe readings up to 79,800 counts per second. These readings are not lab results. In August, lab assays from the Nova Discovery confirmed it: hole PG25-05 returned 1.0 metre at 2.2% U3O8, including 0.3 metres at 5.4%. Two holes at the Q2 target did not explain their targets. Assays for PG25-07, which had the strongest readings, were still pending.
2025-2026: Toro and Larocque East
In October 2025, IsoEnergy agreed to buy Toro Energy, the ASX-listed owner of the Wiluna Uranium Project in Western Australia, offering 0.036 IsoEnergy share per Toro share. The deal implied about A$75.0 million and meant existing holders would own about 92.9% afterward.
In January 2026 it raised more. A bought deal closed on January 27 with 3,833,410 shares sold at C$15.00 for C$57,501,150, and a placement of 1,666,667 shares to NexGen at C$15.00 (about C$25 million) let NexGen keep its roughly 30% stake.
Winter drilling at Larocque East in Canada's Athabasca Basin grew from 13 to 17 holes. In May, assays showed hole LE26-248 at 4.21% U3O8 over 3.5 metres, including 11.61% over 1.0 metre, in a part of the Hurricane deposit previously modelled as low-grade. A summer program of about 8,000 metres in 20 holes was planned.
2026: Australia completed, Utah handed over
The Toro deal completed on June 25, 2026, with about 4,359,568 new shares issued to Toro holders, giving IsoEnergy the Wiluna project. Summer drilling at Larocque East was briefly suspended for a wildfire evacuation, then resumed. By July 8, four of the 20 holes were done and all hit mineralization; LE26-250 read 11,075 counts per second over 3.5 metres. These were hand-held readings, so assays were pending. The company also staked 61,830 hectares and optioned 31,293 hectares from GEM Oil Inc.
On August 19, 2026, IsoEnergy closed a deal contributing its Utah mines (Tony M, Daneros, Rim, Sage Plain and Flatiron) to a new company, DISA Uranium, for 1,677,350 shares. It also put US$33 million into DISA's US$105 million private placement. IsoEnergy then held about 33% fully diluted, as the largest shareholder, with two of seven board seats. The record does not address the Energy Fuels toll milling arrangement. At that date the company disclosed no debt, and the Larocque East summer assays remained pending.
