Royalty Management Holding Corp said ReElement Technologies closed $25 million in new financing, including a US Department of War investment, that will boost royalty revenue under an existing agreement.
"ReElement has consistently demonstrated that their novel rare earth and critical mineral refining methods are the next generation of how the world looks at this industry, especially from a cost-competitive and purity standpoint," Thomas Sauve, CEO of Royalty Management, said.
The financing includes a $25 million investment from the US Department of War to accelerate ReElement's production of critical minerals for defense and commercial use, in addition to a previously closed investment from private equity firm Transition Equity Partners. ReElement operates critical mineral refining facilities in Noblesville and Marion, Indiana, processing end-of-life recycled materials, virgin ores and manufacturing byproducts into magnet-grade rare earth elements using a chromatographic separation platform.
Royalty Management holds an intellectual property development program with ReElement, under which it provides capital for developing patents and refining technologies in exchange for an ongoing royalty on resulting sales. The company said the new capital raised by ReElement to expand operations is expected to increase revenues tied to refining technologies covered under that program. Separately, the board set a record date of Sept. 30, 2026 for its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.0025 per share, payable Oct. 10, 2026.
The defense backing positions ReElement alongside a growing roster of US rare earth processors, including MP Materials and Cyclic Materials, as the government pushes to reduce reliance on Chinese-dominated supply chains. Investors will watch for updates on royalty revenue tied to ReElement's expanded operations in coming quarters.
