Hannam & Partners upgrades 1414 Degrees valuation following silicon nanoparticle technology acquisition
London-based investment bank Hannam & Partners has released updated research coverage on 1414 Degrees Limited, raising its target valuation following the recent acquisition of silicon nanoparticle technology and successful capital raise.
In its latest research note dated 15 October 2025, Hannam & Partners highlighted several significant milestones that expand 1414 Degrees’ technology portfolio and strengthen its path to commercialisation.
Expanding into Battery Materials
The research emphasises 1414 Degrees’ strategic acquisition of a global licence for silicon nanoparticle technology from George Washington University. The SINTL™ process addresses a critical weakness in lithium-ion battery anodes – volume expansion and instability during charging cycles that typically degrades battery performance over time.
Hannam & Partners noted potential synergies with 1414 Degrees’ hydrogen pyrolysis reactor (SiPHyR®) technology, which produces carbon that could be blended within the SiNTL process. This integration could produce a high value product from the SiPHyR carbon. OEM engagement is scheduled to commence in Q4 2025, with sample testing to follow in Q1 2026.
Strong Capital Support
A $1.2 million placement at A$0.042 per share, with free attaching options exercisable at A$0.05 expiring two years from issue was made. Proceeds will advance the SiNTL technology, progress the Aurora Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project, and support general working capital requirements.
SiBrick Variants Advance Toward Mass Production
Hannam & Partners’ research confirms continued progress on 1414 Degrees’ SiBrick® thermal storage media, with multiple high-temperature variants now validated:
Updated Valuation
- The research acknowledges that both the Aurora project and SiPHyR technology could drive significant further upside to the valuation, particularly as 1414 Degrees transitions to a solutions provider selling a “heat product.”
- Hannam & Partners initiated coverage of 1414 Degrees in October 2023, identifying the Company as a standout player in the thermal energy storage sector. The bank’s continued research coverage reflects growing institutional interest in 1414 Degrees’ expanding portfolio of decarbonisation technologies.
