Helsing's July 2026 $1.8B Series E superseded May reports of a proposed $1.2B round; those are not two completed financings. Its €450M Series C and €600M Series D releases expressly stated government-approval conditions, with no separate completion notice inspected. Their EUR amounts are not converted into an invented exact USD total. Series B and the retrospective Series A amount are issuer-disclosed, but their exact close days and complete legal register remain unavailable.
