PULSAR HELIUM ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ("Pulsar" or the "Company"), the helium project development company, is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the year ended September 30, 2024 (the "Period").

Selected financial and operational information is outlined below and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis (the "MD&A") for the year ended September 30, 2024, which are available on the Company's website at www.pulsarhelium.com and at the following links:

  • Audited financial statements: http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/0933V_1-2025-1-29.pdf
  • MD&A: http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/0933V_2-2025-1-29.pdf

All figures are in US dollars ("US$") unless otherwise stated.

Operational Highlights for the Period

  • The Company drilled the Jetstream #1 appraisal well at the Topaz Project in Minnesota ("Topaz") in February 2024, which confirmed gas accumulation with helium concentrations of between 7.9% and 14.5% helium.

o Results of a passive seismic survey in December 2023 exceeded the Company's expectations and set the stage for the drilling that took place in February 2024.

  • Receipt of Competent Persons Report ("CPR") in August 2024 from Sproule International Limited which estimated unrisked, net helium contingent and prospective resources for the Topaz Project, along with significant by-product resources of CO2. The Contingent and Prospective Resource acreage covered in the CPR represents approximately 13% of the Company's gross land position that it has under lease at the Topaz Project:

o Helium (contingent): P90 - 1.6MMcf; P50 - 5.9MMcf; P10 - 34.9MMcf;

o CO2 (contingent): P90 - 11.9MMcf; P50 - 44.6MMcf; P10 - 266.7MMcf;

o Helium (prospective): P90 - 11.5MMcf; P50 - 40.3MMcf; P10 - 205.9MMcf;

o CO2 (prospective): P90 - 88.0MMcf; P50 - 303.7MMcf; P10 - 1.6Bcf.

Operational Highlights Post Period

  • In October 2024, the Company received interpreted data for a 20.4 kilometre ("km") 2D seismic line survey at Topaz, which showed a continuous reflective package at the helium-bearing interval encountered at Jetstream #1, extending 1.5km to the west and 2km to the east of the well.

o Seismic data acquired in 2024 supported the Company's plans to deepen the Jetstream #1 well and drill additional step-out wells.

  • Successful deepening at Jetstream #1, reaching target depth of 5,100 feet on January 11, 2025. Initial data supports the Company's interpreted larger helium-bearing reservoir zone with multiple helium zones encountered throughout the deepening operation from 2,200 feet to 5,100 feet. Mud log gas levels containing up to 7.24% helium were encountered.
  • Drilling at Jetstream #2 appraisal well commenced on January 16, 2025, which is intended to reach approximately 5,000 feet.
  • In November 2024, Pulsar signed an agreement with Chart Industries, which outlines a procurement roadmap, specific to Pulsar's needs, and facilitates access to advanced gas processing technologies, including helium and carbon dioxide capture, essential for servicing a potential production scenario at Topaz.

o Pulsar and Chart Industries are working towards the signing of a master services agreement which will outline the full terms of how the two parties will work together.

Financial Highlights for the Period and Post Period

  • In January 2024, the Company completed a private placement raising gross proceeds of C$4,255,000 through the issuance of 18,500,000 units at a price of C$0.23 per unit.
  • Admission to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange plc ("AIM") in October 2024, following the successful completion of a total gross funding of £5 million which included the £1.125 million cornerstone investment completed in August 2024.
  • On December 30, 2024, the Company announced that it is arranging a brokered private placement of up to 19,736,842 common shares of the Company to select US based investors at a price of $0.38 per common share to raise up to $7.5 million.
  • On January 9, 2025, the Company closed the first tranche of the private placement raising $2,000,000 through the issuance of 5,263,160 common shares at a purchase price of $0.38 per common share. The first tranche includes participation from high net worth and institutional investors from the USA, including University Bancorp, Inc. which now holds 4.99% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

Outlook

  • The deepening of Jetstream #1 is a pivotal step in advancing Pulsar's strategy to address the increasing global demand for helium as the Company moves another step closer to production. The deepening of Jetstream #1 targets the full height of the helium reservoir, guided by insights from recently acquired geophysical data, previous drilling data, and onsite testing.
  • The Jetstream #2 well is the second gas appraisal well drilled at the Topaz Project and is designed to provide data on reservoir properties, including porosity, permeability and well connectivity that will be utilised in the next iteration of resource estimation, production modelling, and further appraisal well planning.
  • Upon completion of drilling the Jetstream #2 well, down-hole wireline logs will be collected, and an optical televiewer run at both Jetstream #1 and #2. Flow testing and pressure build-up monitoring are planned for both wells in early March 2025 following a post-drill stabilisation period.

Thomas Abraham-James, President & CEO of Pulsar, commented: "The Period was one of transformation for Pulsar. A year in which our flagship Topaz Project in Minnesota, USA, flowed one of the world's highest concentrations of helium at up to 14.5%. As a reminder, commercially viable helium project concentrations begin at 0.3%. The seismic data we received and interpreted reinforced our plans to deepen the Jetstream #1 well and drill additional step-out wells.

"Post Period-end, we deepened the Jetstream #1 well to 5,100 feet, with multiple helium zones encountered throughout the deepening operation from 2,200 feet to 5,100 feet, and mud log gas levels containing up to 7.24% helium that were heavily diluted by air. Drilling of Jetstream #2 appraisal well also commenced in January 2025, which is planned to reach approximately 5,000 feet.

"Looking ahead, once drilling of the Jetstream #2 well is complete, additional data collection will commence. This includes the collection of down-hole wireline logs, an optical televiewer at Jetstream #1 and #2, and flow testing and pressure build-up monitoring planned for early March 2025. The deepening of Jetstream #1 and initial drilling at Jetstream #2 will provide information for the next iteration of resource estimating, production modelling, and further appraisal well planning.

"In October 2024, Pulsar dual listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange, simultaneously raising £5 million. This marked an exciting step for the Company, which has enabled UK investors to join Pulsar on its journey to become a key supplier of helium, helping to address the global supply gap. London, as a global financial hub with a strong investor appetite for critical resources, provides the perfect platform for Pulsar's growth.

"I look forward to sharing the data that we collect in the subsequent operations once drilling is completed at Jetstream #2, and revealing how it informs future developments and the understanding of our project."
