(NASDAQ: NEHC) (NASDAQ: NEHCW) (“NEH,” “New Era Helium” or the “Company”), an exploration and production company sourcing helium produced in association with the production of natural gas reserves within the Permian Basin, is pleased to announce it has closed on its previously announced business combination with Roth CH V Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), and Roth CH Acquisition V. Co. (Nasdaq:ROCL; ROCLU and ROCLW) (the “Business Combination”), in which NEH merged with Roth CH V Merger Sub Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings.

The trading of the Company’s shares on Nasdaq represents a pivotal milestone in New Era Helium’s mission to establish itself as a leading consolidator of helium and natural gas production. With over 137,000 acres in Southeast New Mexico and 1.5 billion cubic feet of proved and probable helium reserves, NEH is well-positioned to drive growth in this critical sector, expected to see a surge in demand amid growth in data centers powering artificial intelligence.

This joint venture combines Sharon AI’s expertise in high-performance computing with NEH’s extensive helium and natural gas reserves. The state-of-the-art facility will feature a liquid-cooled Tier 3 data center powered by sustainable energy, offsetting approximately 250,000 metric tons of CO2 annually through carbon capture technology.

NEH believes the Nasdaq listing will enhance its visibility and attract U.S. investors interested in energy infrastructure and sustainable innovation, further underscoring the value of its assets and forward-looking projects.
