New Era Helium to Ring Nasdaq Opening Bell, Kicking Off 2025 Trading on January 2, 2025

MIDLAND, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEHC) (“NEH,” “New Era Helium,” or the “Company”), an exploration and production (E&P) company sourcing helium produced in association with natural gas reserves within the Permian Basin, is excited to announce that Nasdaq has selected New Era Helium to ring the opening bell on January 2, 2025, marking the first trading day of the new year.

2024 has been a landmark year for New Era Helium. The Company successfully completed its business combination with Roth CH Acquisition V Co. and listed on Nasdaq under the ticker “NEHC” in December. This milestone establishes NEH as one of the first helium-focused companies to secure a listing on a major U.S. exchange. And we believe we have become strategically positioned to be a leading aggregation platform for high-demand upstream helium.

Building on this achievement, NEH is further solidifying its position as a key emerging player in the U.S. helium market with the announcement of a 50/50 joint venture (“JV”) with Sharon AI to develop a state-of-the-art 250MW net-zero energy data center in the Permian Basin. This JV not only expands the Company’s operational capacity but embeds NEH in AI, cloud computing, and energy-hungry industries unlocking revenue from both energy sales and infrastructure projects.

E. Will Gray II, CEO of New Era Helium, Inc. commented: “We’re thrilled to have been chosen to ring the opening bell at Nasdaq on January 2, 2025, kicking off the first trading day of the new year. This historic moment in our corporate journey reflects the incredible effort and tenacity of our entire team and the support of investors and partners. Going public is just the beginning, and we’re looking forward to building on this momentum in the years ahead. As we close out the year, we take great pride in our accomplishments having laid a strong foundation for 2025, paving the way for growth.”
