First Hydrogen (FHYDF) Stock News

First Hydrogen (OTC:FHYDF) completed design and IP protection for major performance and efficiency upgrades, including new amphibious capabilities, to its unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) platform.

The UGV uses a patented folding chassis with eight semi-robotic leg-wheel assemblies, modular mission payloads, and targets industrial, security, defense and last-mile delivery markets.

First Hydrogen (OTC: FHYDF) amended and expanded a binding LOI with Exodus Actuation Solutions to obtain exclusive worldwide rights to develop a patented mobile AI-driven unmanned ground vehicle (UGV).

The hybrid UGV uses solar, battery and hydrogen fuel cell power, features an eight-legged leg-wheel chassis, and targets DaaS, defense, logistics and industrial markets. First Hydrogen will fund development, own resulting IP, and must meet a two-year development milestone; a 1% royalty applies on gross sales incorporating the patent.

First Hydrogen (OTC: FHYDF) entered a binding Letter of Intent to acquire a 60% interest in Exodus Actuation Solutions, a robotics IP company.

The transaction contemplates issuing 2,000,000 common shares in stages and funding US$2,000,000, subject to due diligence, definitive agreements, and TSXV approval. Exodus holds 25 issued and 11 pending patents for actuators and motors used in robotics, EVs, drones, and renewable-energy applications.

First Hydrogen (OTC: FHYDF) provided a corporate update on December 16, 2025, describing R&D and strategic initiatives across hydrogen and small modular reactor (SMR) integration.

The company launched a technical research program with the University of Alberta (led by Professor Muhammad Taha Manzoor) to identify non-radioactive surrogate molten salt fuel mixtures for lab-scale experimentation, enabling reactor fuel materials and design optimization without using radioactive materials. Next steps include lab setup, experimental planning and supplier collaboration. The long-term plan pairs SMR power with electrolysis to produce green hydrogen for data centres, AI infrastructure and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles.

First Hydrogen (OTC: FHYDF) announced on November 25, 2025 the start of technical research with the University of Alberta to select non‑radioactive surrogate molten‑salt fuel mixtures for future lab‑scale SMR prototypes. The initial phase covers design, optimization, materials selection, procurement assessment, and regulatory considerations for surrogate salts that mimic uranium‑bearing fuel salts without using uranium.

The work, led by Prof. Muhammad Taha Manzoor, will guide First Hydrogen's next R&D steps including lab setup, test planning, and supplier engagement and aims to de‑risk future prototype testing for SMR applications such as data centre power and green hydrogen production.

First Hydrogen (OTC: FHYDF) welcomed the European Commission's November 13, 2025 launch of the Hydrogen Mechanism and new H2 Matchmaking Platform, a supply-and-demand tool inside the EU Energy and Raw Materials Platform. The platform connects hydrogen producers and buyers to speed project finance, secure offtake commitments, and advance renewable and low-carbon hydrogen deployment across the EU.

Key features: streamlined partner matching, aggregated voluntary supply/demand data, access for domestic and international suppliers, and company registration to submit offers and review requests. First Hydrogen cited use cases for its hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles and green energy projects in the UK, EU, and North America.

First Hydrogen (OTC:FHYDF) has expressed support for Canada's fast-tracking of the Darlington Small Modular Reactor (SMR) project, which aligns with the company's green energy strategy. The project, announced by Prime Minister Mark Carney, positions Canada to become the first G7 nation with an operational SMR.

The company is advancing its SMR technology through a strategic collaboration with the University of Alberta, focusing on design optimization and reactor fuel materials. First Hydrogen launched First Nuclear Corp. in March 2025 to integrate SMR power with electrolysis for green-hydrogen production, targeting off-grid and industrial sites. The initiative comes as Goldman Sachs forecasts data center power demand to increase by 50% by 2027 and up to 165% by 2030, requiring an estimated US$720 billion in grid spending.
