Premier Graphene Inc. and Affiliate HGI Industrial Technologies S.A.P.I. de C.V. Receive Payment for Mexican Military Purchase Order
The three fulfilled contracts were profitable, while the planned Mexican manufacturing facility still awaits financing.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
Premier Graphene (BIEI) and affiliate HGI Industrial Technologies received payment for their first fulfilled purchase order for Mexico’s defense ministry, SEDENA. The order, documented under Remisión No. 001 dated May 8, 2026, covered 98 military waist belts. The three contracts fulfilled were profitable.
HGI and Nova Graphene signed a joint venture agreement approximately one month ago to establish a manufacturing plant in Mexico. The planned facility is not yet operational and awaits financing. Its intended graphene-related and protective-product manufacturing opportunities also depend on applicable regulatory and certification requirements.
Premier expects to pursue U.S. industrial and military procurement opportunities, including graphene-enhanced protective products. These activities require at least one certification that Premier has not yet obtained.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Premier Graphene Inc. (OTC: BIEI) (the “Company” or “Premier”), together with its affiliate and strategic partner HGI Industrial Technologies S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“HGI”), today announced that payment was received on the first purchase order fulfilled by HGI and Premier for Mexico’s Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional (SEDENA).
The purchase order, documented under Remisión No. 001 dated May 8, 2026, involved the manufacture and delivery of 98 military waist belts (fajillas), consisting of:
• 35 units — Fajilla with TE-3A belt
• 35 units — Fajilla with NC belt
• 28 units — Fajilla with TE-3 belt
The fulfillment of these 3 separate contracts, while profitable, more significantly, demonstrated to the Mexican government, the professionalism of Premier and its team, coupled with the capacity to competently and expeditiously, deliver quality, compliant products and fulfill all responsibilities, paving the way to more significant and far more profitable contracts.
The accounting treatment, classification, and timing of any related revenue remains subject to determination by the Company’s management and independent auditors, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
HGI Industrial Technologies continues expanding its manufacturing and commercial operations in Mexico, while Premier Graphene Inc. is developing its position as a publicly traded company with exposure to advanced materials, graphene-related technologies, and strategic manufacturing opportunities.
“This payment marks another important milestone for HGI and Premier Graphene,” said Pedro A. Méndez, President of Premier Graphene Inc. and HGI Industrial Technologies S.A.P.I. de C.V. “Our focus has always been on turning opportunities into actual purchase orders, delivering the products, and ultimately converting those orders into collected revenue. Receiving payment is an important part of that process.”
The Companies expect to continue building upon their existing commercial relationships while pursuing additional opportunities in Mexico and international markets.
As part of their broader strategic development, HGI Industrial Technologies S.A.P.I. de C.V. and Nova Graphene Inc. are moving forward under a signed Joint Venture agreement focused on establishing a dedicated manufacturing plant in Mexico. The Joint Venture agreement was signed approximately one month ago, and the parties are currently awaiting financing to proceed with the planned facility. The facility is intended to support the production of advanced graphene-related and protective products for Mexico and international markets, subject to securing adequate financing. The planned plant is not yet operational.
Nova Graphene has tested and NIJ-certified ballistic plate products at Level III-A and Level IV, along with additional military applications and advanced materials. The planned manufacturing platform in Mexico is intended to build upon these existing technologies and capabilities and, if financed and established, could support production and commercial opportunities in Mexico, the United States, Europe, and Middle Eastern markets, subject to applicable financing, regulatory, and certification requirements.
Premier Graphene Inc. expects to pursue U.S. industrial and military procurement opportunities, including next-generation graphene-enhanced protective vests and other graphene-enhanced military products, as part of its broader North American market strategy. These activities are subject to Premier Graphene Inc. obtaining at least one type of required certification which has not yet been obtained. Despite the probability of receiving all such certifications, there can be no assurance that all will be received and thus all such opportunities will be realized.
