A fusion-evaporation reaction has been employed to search for isomeric states in the $N=77$ isotope ${}_{63}^{140}\mathrm{Eu}$ near the proton-drip line. The recoiling nuclei were implanted into a silicon detector, at the focal plane of a gas-filled separator, where prompt and delayed $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray transitions were correlated across isomeric states using recoil-isomer tagging. The feeding and decay of a new 299(3) ns isomeric state was established. This measurement represents the first observation of excited high-spin states in ${}^{140}\mathrm{Eu}.$ The behavior of the new states above the isomer is discussed in terms of theoretical calculations based upon the cranked-shell model and upon the experimental systematics of other $N=77$ isotones. Within this framework, the isomer is interpreted to be built upon a $\ensuremath{\pi}{h}_{11/2}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}\ensuremath{\nu}{h}_{11/2}$ two-quasiparticle configuration.
