The Albany Gazette - Helio Announces Midwest Investor Roadshow Across Chicago, Minneapolis, and Milwaukee as Commercial and Financial Momentum Accelerates

The roadshow opens in Chicago, one of the nation's major financial hubs and a natural gateway for engaging the institutional investor base that anchors capital markets activity throughout the Midwest. From Chicago's trading floors to its deep bench of asset managers and family offices, the city offers Helio direct access to a sophisticated audience well positioned to evaluate the Company's next phase of growth. The tour then continues to Minneapolis, home to a thriving community of growth focused investors and a business culture built around engineering and industrial innovation that aligns closely with Helio's mission to build the infrastructure powering the next era of space activity. The trip closes in Milwaukee, a city with a strong manufacturing and engineering heritage and a growing base of investors eager to back the technologies shaping advanced industrial and aerospace markets.

Over the past year, Helio has executed on its long-term strategy by expanding its participation to five lunar missions, advancing residential and industrial demonstrations of its space based solar power technology, reducing outstanding debt by more than two thirds, expanding its patent filings, increasing commercial engagement with prospective partners, and building an estimated $12 million contract pipeline. Management will provide a comprehensive update on each of these areas throughout the roadshow, along with recent capital markets initiatives and shareholder growth, underscoring Helio's ongoing commitment to transparent communication with its investor community.

As part of its ongoing investor outreach efforts, Helio will host a series of investor luncheons and dinners across key Midwest markets:
