“Expected news in the next day or so”
This usually refers to a pending RNS announcement from the company. For HE1, the next logical updates are around:
Helium sales agreements (offtake contracts)
Long-term buyers for the gas
Production ramp-up at the Galactica plant
The plant has already started processing helium and filling trailers for sale. The next step is formal sales contracts.
“Materially boosting guaranteed revenues”
This phrase usually means revenue that is contractually secured, not just estimated.
Examples of what could cause this:
A multi-year helium supply agreement
A minimum purchase commitment from a buyer
A floor price contract
That turns speculative production into predictable cash flow, which investors value much more highly.
Why people are saying “50–100%”
That number is not official guidance. It’s likely speculation based on earlier company estimates.
Previously, estimates suggested roughly about $2 million per year in revenue from the initial wells, potentially higher if CO₂ is also sold.
If a contract:
locks in higher prices, or
includes CO₂ sales, or
confirms higher production,
then revenue expectations could jump significantly — hence people throwing around +50–100% guesses.
What the market actually cares about
For HE1, the big milestone is the transition from:
Explorer → Producer with recurring revenue
Announcements that usually move the stock most are:
Offtake agreements
Confirmed helium sales volumes
Production ramp-up numbers
Long-term contracts
In short:
That comment means investors expect an RNS soon confirming sales contracts or revenue guarantees, which could significantly increase expected income from the U.S. helium production.
Does someone have insider information??
