IperionX is still pre-revenue and has logged net losses over US$30 million, with investors keeping an eye on the company's execution risks. Shares are valued between A$8.87 and A$10.51, as the market weighs the company's hefty spend and ongoing losses. The contract could validate IperionX's titanium process and scale, though investors remain cautious about future performance.
