I dumped this POS for a loss fuck these guys
It really too early for me to be described as other than new to this ticker and will pay attention to what is going on with HLGN. It will be interesting to see what the SP is after the RS is complete. More than likely I am still going to be a buyer of HLGN.
Are you a bull on this stock?
That’s some great DD bro thanks

Heliogen Announces 1-for-35 Reverse Stock Split
August 25 2023
https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/NYSE/heliogen-HLGN/stock-news/91901289/heliogen-announces-1-for-35-reverse-stock-split
Heliogen, Inc. (“Heliogen”) (NYSE: HLGN), a leading provider of AI-enabled concentrating solar energy technology, announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a 1-for-35 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of Heliogen’s common stock. Heliogen’s stockholders previously approved the Reverse Stock Split at Heliogen’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on August 3, 2023 and gave Heliogen’s Board of Directors discretionary authority to select a ratio for the Reverse Stock Split ranging from 1-for-10 shares to 1-for-40 shares.
The Reverse Stock Split is expected to be effective at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 31, 2023. Beginning on September 1, 2023, Heliogen’s common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Following the Reverse Stock Split, the common stock will continue trading on the NYSE under the symbol “HLGN”, but will trade under a new CUSIP number: 42329E204. Heliogen’s publicly traded warrants will continue to be traded on the NYSE under the symbol “HLGN.W” and the CUSIP number for the warrants will remain unchanged.
Purpose of the Reverse Stock Split
The primary purpose of the reverse stock split is to increase the market price of Heliogen's common stock to regain full compliance with the NYSE share price listing rule and maintain Heliogen’s listing on the NYSE. Heliogen believes that the higher share price resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will also make Heliogen’s shares more attractive to institutional and other investors.
Details of the Reverse Stock Split
Under the terms of the Reverse Stock Split, every 35 shares of Heliogen's issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, with no change in the par value per share. This will reduce the number of outstanding shares of Heliogen’s common stock from approximately 205.1 million to approximately 5.9 million. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the authorized number of shares of common stock.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders of record who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will receive a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, proportionate adjustments will be made to the number of shares of Heliogen's common stock underlying Heliogen's outstanding equity awards, warrants and preferred units, as well as the exercise or conversion price, as applicable.
It's difficult to watch the action on a daily basis as I work 60/70-hour weeks. I would actually trade more if I had the time to focus on the market. I should have set a sell order after the 29% gain and then unload 20% of my holdings to try and take some profit. I want to have a core investment in HLZN but sell 20% when the share price reaches a gain whereas I can take some profits. This was a missed opportunity, and I will need to find time for such a disciplined approach.
Interesting action today
Just getting my feet wet on this one and trying to learn as much as I can about the company. I need to diversify my holdings and alternative energy stocks would be an important sector to invest in. There is a lot to like about HLGN.
Are you a bull for this ticker?
More Green Day’s to come. I think this company have large potential
LOL. Yeah, I've done that as well. Nice to see HLGN green today, big 29% jump.
I lit can’t find it anymore that’s why I was check to see if anybody else saw it lol
Best regard
Did not see the patent news, can you provide a link?
I did find this news on HLGN today.
https://www.etfdailynews.com/2023/08/23/heliogen-inc-nysehlgn-shares-purchased-by-mirae-asset-global-investments-co-ltd/
Best regards.
LMAO! HLGN remains uncertain due to the lack of available data and forecast information. With no earnings per share or sales data reported for the current quarter, investors are left without key indicators to gauge the company’s financial performance.
The reporting date for HLGN’s financial results is also yet to be determined, further adding to the uncertainty surrounding the stock. Investors typically rely on these reports to make informed decisions about their investments, as they provide insights into a company’s profitability, revenue generation, and overall financial health.
Without any forecast data or recommendations available, investors may find it challenging to assess the future prospects of HLGN. These factors contribute to a lack of clarity and make it difficult to predict the stock’s performance on August 22, 2023.

The Clean Hydrogen Rules Will Be Delayed Until at Least October
The Biden administration will miss a deadline in the Inflation Reduction Act, as it tries to regulate one of the climate law’s most generous —and contentious — tax credits.
AUGUST 10, 2023
https://heatmap.news/economy/hydrogen-tax-credit-rules-when
The Biden administration is planning to publish rules governing one of the most generous subsidies in its new climate law — a tax credit for clean hydrogen — no earlier than October, missing a key deadline inscribed in the law, according to a source familiar with the process.
The rules revolve around one of the most contentious questions that has emerged after the law’s passage: How do you know that your electricity is clean? The debate has divided climate activists, hydrogen companies, renewable developers, and nuclear-power plant owners.
The ultimate answer could — by one estimate — determine the flow of more than $100 billion in federal subsidies over the next two decades.
The new rules could come as late as December, the source said, missing the deadline by as much as four months. The climate law required the Treasury Department publish guidance about the hydrogen tax credit within one year of its passage. Because the law was signed on August 16, 2022, that deadline will arrive next week.
Hydrogen is key to the Biden administration’s climate strategy. The colorless, odorless gas has the potential to replace fossil fuels in industries that are otherwise difficult to make climate-friendly, including steelmaking, shipping, aviation, and fertilizer production. While hydrogen does not emit any carbon when burned, today most hydrogen is made from natural gas in a carbon-intensive process.
The new tax credit is designed to make cleaner production methods more competitive, and it offers the largest reward — $3 per kilogram of hydrogen — to companies that can make hydrogen without emitting almost any greenhouse gases at all.
The issue before the Treasury Department is how companies should calculate their greenhouse gas emissions when trying to qualify for this credit. But there’s no universally accepted way to do this accounting. That is an especially big problem for a method of producing hydrogen called electrolysis, which uses electricity to split water into its constituent hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The process is incredibly energy-intensive, but it can be emissions-free, as long as the electricity comes from a carbon-free source.
A major debate has erupted among energy companies, environmental groups, and academics over what should qualify as carbon-free electricity. Earlier this year, researchers from Princeton University’s ZERO Lab warned that the Treasury Department’s decision could risk a major increase in emissions, underwritten by billions of public dollars, if not crafted carefully. Most — but not all — of the nascent clean hydrogen industry has pushed back on their analysis, warning that onerous rules would “devastate the economics” of clean hydrogen.
As we’ve previously reported, the complicated tax credit could transform the nuclear power sector and America’s energy economy writ large. It could also drive the formation of a booming domestic clean-hydrogen industry — but only if the Biden administration gets it right.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Management uses certain financial measures, including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, to evaluate our financial and operating performance that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and analysts to assess our ongoing financial performance because they provide improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past financial performance and future prospects, and remove items that may obscure our underlying business results and trends. These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
EBITDA represents consolidated net loss before (i) interest (income) expense, net, (ii) income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for certain significant non-cash items and items that management believes are not attributable to or indicative of our on-going operations or that may obscure our underlying results and trends. Please see the accompanying tables for a reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Mr H, welcome to the Heliogen board. Relevant quotes from the following article, dated Feb 8, 2023.
https://www.bizjournals.com/losangeles/news/2023/02/07/heliogen-cfo-christie-obiaya-named-ceo.html
Renewable solar energy company Heliogen Inc. has a new leader in charge after its board of directors appointed Christie Obiaya as chief executive officer, following conflict with the company's founder and former CEO.
Gross announced his decision to step down as CEO to Heliogen's board last year, recommending an unidentified candidate from outside the company to step into the role of president before moving up to CEO after a six-month period, Gross said in his resignation letter to the board. Gross wrote that the board of directors approved and nominated his candidate, but senior management at Heliogen objected, as several members "threatened to quit." Gross said that the board supported the existing management team, promoting Obiaya.
In response, Heliogen's board of directors said in a statement that it did not nominate Gross' candidate during the process, determining that it was in Heliogen's "best interests" to promote a internal candidate that was "intimately familiar" with the company’s technology, customers and the board’s priorities.
Sir can you tell me. What happened to Bill Gross? Wasn’t he the founder of this company? Did the board force him out?

Collaboration to decarbonize America’s “First Hydrogen City” through Heliogen’s patented breakthrough CST technology
Heliogen, Inc. (“Heliogen”) (NYSE: HLGN), a leading provider of AI-enabled concentrating solar energy technology, today announced the execution of a definitive contract with The City of Lancaster, California (“The City” or “Lancaster”) to produce green hydrogen to be purchased by Lancaster for the city’s growing green hydrogen fuel needs. The partnership represents Lancaster’s first hydrogen offtake agreement.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230606005500/en/
The green hydrogen will be produced at Heliogen’s Proxima hydrogen facility in Lancaster and will leverage Heliogen’s innovative technology using AI and advanced computer vision software to concentrate sunlight with mirrors, producing carbon-free hydrogen with significant economic development potential. As part of the agreement, Heliogen will provide green hydrogen to the City and will certify its carbon intensity, a measure of the CO2 emitted per kilogram of hydrogen produced. Proxima could ultimately help support other projects within the city and region, including sustainable aviation fuel, and sales and distribution of hydrogen fuel for industrial processes such as long-haul trucking, cement, and mining.
The agreement between Heliogen and Lancaster builds upon the previously announced MOU between the parties to establish a clean hydrogen generation facility, and is expected to contract hydrogen conforming to SAE J2719 hydrogen fuel cell vehicle specifications at a $10/kg offtake price. The wholesale-level price represents significant cost savings for the city amid rapidly increasing prices at hydrogen filling stations across California, with the average hydrogen pump price reaching an all-time high of $21.28/kg in November 2022, according to data provided to Hydrogen Insight by S&P Global Commodity Insights.
The collaboration furthers the City’s vision to become a model and leader for hydrogen as a clean, alternative energy source for municipalities. Lancaster, the nation’s first city to embrace hydrogen power, is an inaugural winner of the U.S. Department of Energy’s H2 Twin Cities Initiative.
“We are excited to advance our strategic relationship with The City of Lancaster and support its needs for green hydrogen fuel at scale,” said Christie Obiaya, Chief Executive Officer at Heliogen. “This agreement underscores the incredible potential to rapidly develop and commercialize green hydrogen as a key pathway for a decarbonized economy. I am proud of the Heliogen team for its work to demonstrate the value of our patented breakthrough technology to produce cost-effective green hydrogen, which will accelerate adoption of this critical, multi-use form of clean fuel all over the world.”
“As America’s first hydrogen city, Lancaster is proud to pioneer innovative solutions to drive change and decarbonize our economy,” said R. Rex Parris, Mayor, City of Lancaster. “Heliogen’s unique ability to create carbon-free hydrogen holds immense promise to fuel our municipal fleet at the lowest carbon intensity. Hydrogen is the future and we invite other cities to join us on the path to decarbonization as a way to tackle climate change.”
Heliogen has completed preliminary configuration designs and secured a site for Proxima.
