Initial SEDENA-linked contract advances toward delivery, positioning the Company for follow-on supply agreements, including broader graphene-enhanced defense applications
MEXICO CITY, May 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Premier Graphene, Inc. (OTC: BIEI), together with its joint venture partners, including HGI Industrial Technologies SAPI, today provided an operational update following its recently announced initial military contract awarded through Mexico’s Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional (SEDENA).
As previously disclosed, the contract—issued by Dirección General de Fábrica de Vestuario y Equipo (FAVE)—followed extensive technical evaluation and represents the Company’s formal entry into Mexico’s military supply chain.
The Company today announced that a portion of the previously disclosed order has already been successfully delivered. The balance of the order remains on track for completion by May 12, reinforcing management’s confidence in both operational capacity and supply chain reliability. This phased delivery schedule underscores the Company’s ability to meet near-term demand while positioning for potential follow-on orders and longer-term supply agreements with various departments of Mexico’s government.
Mexico represents one of the most significant strategic markets in Latin America, with a national economy exceeding $1.4 trillion in GDP and a growing emphasis on domestic defense capabilities and modernization. Mexico’s military and security budget, estimated in the tens of billions annually, continues to expand in response to evolving national security priorities.
By successfully entering this highly selective procurement framework, Premier Graphene and its partners are positioning themselves at the intersection of advanced materials innovation and long-term defense spending within a major global economy.
Management believes the successful execution and validation of this initial contract may serve as a gateway to multiple follow-on supply agreements, including:
Military-grade protective plates and armor solutions (once ITAR certification is complete)
Graphene-enhanced tactical equipment
Advanced materials for vehicle and personnel protection systems
Broader graphene supply contracts across defense and infrastructure sectors
The Company is actively evaluating opportunities to become a premier supplier of graphene and graphene-enhanced products to military and government-linked entities in the U.S., Mexico and potentially across Latin America.
With increasing global demand for high-performance materials, graphene is rapidly emerging as a critical material across defense, infrastructure, and industrial applications. Premier Graphene’s proprietary technologies and vertically integrated approach position the Company to participate in what management believes could represent a multi-billion-dollar addressable market opportunity.
