Buxton Helmsley Issues Letter to U.S. Senators Warren and Whitehouse Related to Apparent EchoStar Accounting and Securities Fraud, Including Failure to Correct $15B Equity Value Overstatement

The Buxton Helmsley Group, Inc. (together with certain of its affiliates, “BHG” or “we”), the New York City-based investment fund manager with financial interests in EchoStar Corporation (“EchoStar” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SATS), today issued an open letter (the “Letter”) to U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Sheldon Whitehouse (members of the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance), after EchoStar’s filing of a Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 29, 2024 (the “February 29 Form 10-K”), which failed to disclose $15B in implicitly admitted equity value overstatement, among other issues.

BHG has issued multiple letters to EchoStar’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) setting forth the apparent ongoing accounting and securities fraud at the Company, and EchoStar has never denied the allegations; instead, EchoStar resorted to stripping assets from DISH Network Corporation shortly after BHG had privately brought DISH’s evidenced net asset insolvency to the attention of the EchoStar Board.

Simultaneous to the Letter issued to U.S. Senators Warren and Whitehouse, BHG also today issued a separate letter to EchoStar’s Board of Directors, discussing the Company’s continued accounting and securities law failures as part of its February 29 Form 10-K. BHG also addressed verbal statements made by the Company’s leadership on its March 1, 2024, earnings call, which further support BHG’s allegations of apparent accounting and securities fraud occurring at the Company.

As part of the Letter to U.S. Senators Warren and Whitehouse, BHG also mentions its whistleblowing involvement at Mallinckrodt plc. (formerly, NYSE: MNK).

This Letter is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any investment product. BHG is also not proposing any particular investment proposal, nor a particular investment decision, nor recommending or suggesting an investment strategy, explicitly or implicitly, concerning EchoStar Corporation or DISH Network Corporation (each, an “Issuer”, and together, the “Issuers”), and therefore the Letter is not information recommending or suggesting an investment strategy or investment recommendation.

Our research expresses our opinions, which we have based on publicly available information, research, inferences, and deductions through our due diligence and analytical processes.

Our research and this Letter include forward-looking statements, estimates, projections, and opinions prepared with respect to, among other things, certain accounting, legal, and regulatory issues each Issuer faces and the potential impact of those issues on its future business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as more generally, the Issuer’s anticipated operating performance, access to capital markets, market conditions, assets, and liabilities. Such statements, estimates, projections and opinions may prove to be substantially inaccurate and are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties beyond BHG’s (and its affiliates and related parties) control. No representation is made (or warranty given) as to the accuracy, completeness, achievability, or reasonableness of such statements of opinion.

BHG believes all information contained within the Letter is accurate and reliable, and has been obtained from public sources it believes to be accurate and reliable. However, such information is presented “as is,” without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. BHG and its affiliates make no representation, express or implied, as to the accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of any such information or regarding the results to be obtained from its use.

Readers of the Letter also represent to BHG that they possess sufficient investment sophistication to critically assess the information, analysis, and opinions in the Letter.

Readers of the Letter agree to release BHG and its affiliates and related parties from any and all liability for any direct or indirect trading losses caused by acting on any information in the Letter. Affiliated and related parties of BHG include, but are not limited to, partners, principals, officers, directors, employees, members, clients, investors, advisors, consultants, and agents.
