Hillwood Invests in Dallas-Based Hexivon to Destroy “Forever Chemicals” in Water

Strategic investment will speed the rollout of Hexivon’s technology designed to eliminate PFAS in water for good

DALLAS, July 14, 2026Strategic investment will speed the rollout of Hexivon’s technology designed to eliminate PFAS in water for good

Hexivon, a Dallas-based water technology company, today announced a new investment from Hillwood, a Perot company. Hexivon eliminates polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as “forever chemicals,” from water rather than just filtering them out. The investment expands Hillwood’s infrastructure portfolio into advanced water technologies as utilities, industry and government agencies seek long-term solutions to the PFAS problem.

“We invested in Hexivon because we believe the company has developed a disruptive approach to addressing one of the most pressing environmental challenges facing communities today. We believe this collaboration can help accelerate adoption of meaningful PFAS treatment solutions across the country.”

— Ross Perot, Jr., Chairman of Hillwood

The only proven system that pulls PFAS from flowing water and destroys it for good

Most methods move PFAS around. Carbon filters, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis pull PFAS out of water, but leave waste that must be hauled off and stored. Hexivon works differently. It works at any ambient temperature and destroys PFAS at the molecular level on site. It breaks the chemicals apart and leaves nothing harmful behind.

In a 2025 pilot in Cary, North Carolina, drinking water tested at 40 parts per trillion of PFAS. After Hexivon treatment, the level was non-detectable. The system cleaned 150,000 gallons per day and made zero waste. Independent, EPA-certified labs checked the results.

Collaboration built to bring the technology to market and meet growing demand

“Hillwood brings far more than capital to this relationship. Their experience developing complex infrastructure projects, working with public-sector stakeholders and deploying long-term investment capital makes them an ideal strategic partner as we accelerate commercialisation of our PFAS destruction technology.”

— Kevin Boscamp, Chairman of Hexivon

Demand for PFAS treatment is growing fast. It is driven by new federal regulations and increased investment in water projects. In Texas, House Bill 500 (HB500) sent more than $1 billion to the Texas Water Development Board for water projects, including PFAS cleanup. Across Dallas-Fort Worth, 29 public water systems have exceeded EPA standards for PFAS, underscoring the need for treatment solutions and funding.

Together, Hillwood and Hexivon plan to accelerate deployment of PFAS destruction systems. The goal is simple: cleaner water for municipal, industrial and government customers across the United States.

Funding is available for Dallas-Fort Worth Water Systems

Texas HB500 funding can help pay for PFAS treatment in your community, and Hexivon is ready to help your system apply. The deadline is July 30, so time is short. Hexivon connects qualifying DFW water systems with engineering partners to guide the HB500 application, at no charge.

About Corgi

Founded in 2025, Corgi is an AI Financial Infrastructure Company seeking to create innovative products in insurance and finance. We are seeking to build the foundation for a new generation of financial services, with AI and technology at the core from day one. To learn more about Corgi, follow us on LinkedIn, on X, or at www.corgifunds.com.

Important Information

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the Fund and should be read carefully before investing. A copy of the prospectus is available at www.corgifunds.com.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. The Fund does not invest directly in the securities of SK hynix Inc.

Leveraged ETFs seek to provide a multiple of the daily performance of an underlying security or index, before fees and expenses. Due to daily compounding, returns over periods longer than one day may differ significantly from the stated multiple.

The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to two times (2x) the daily performance of its underlying security for a single day. This is measured from one net asset value calculation to the next. The Fund does not seek to achieve its stated investment objective over periods longer than one trading day. Due to the effects of compounding, the Fund’s performance over periods longer than one day may differ significantly from two times (2x) the performance of the underlying security over the same period, particularly during periods of increased market volatility.

The use of leverage magnifies both gains and losses and may result in significant losses. A relatively small movement in the underlying security can result in a substantially larger movement in the value of the Fund’s shares. The underlying ADR may experience heightened volatility, particularly in the initial period following its U.S. listing. The Fund uses derivatives, including swap agreements, to obtain leveraged exposure, which may expose the Fund to additional risks, including counterparty risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk, and tracking error. The Fund is non-diversified and concentrates its exposure in a single issuer, so the Fund’s performance depends heavily on the performance of that one security and will be more volatile than a diversified fund. The Fund is intended for sophisticated investors who understand the risks associated with leveraged investment strategies and who intend to monitor and manage their investments actively. The Fund is not intended for buy-and-hold investors.

Depositary Receipts Risk. The Fund obtains exposure through instruments referencing sponsored depositary receipts. A depositary receipt’s market value may diverge from the underlying common stock because the two trade in different markets, hours, and currencies. Depositary receipts carry the credit, custody, and operational risk of the depositary bank, and currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the South Korean won will affect their value.

SK hynix Inc. is not affiliated with Corgi Strategies, LLC, Corgi, or Paralel Distributors, LLC, and has not sponsored, endorsed, sold, or promoted the Fund and makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in the Fund.

The Fund is newly organized and has limited or no operating history. ETF shares trade at market price (not NAV), are not individually redeemable, and may trade at a premium or discount to NAV. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

This release is informational only and not an offer or solicitation; offers are made only by prospectus.

*Expense ratio comparison among U.S.-listed 2x long ETFs on the ADR of SK hynix Inc., based on net expense ratios obtained from each fund’s prospectus, fact sheet, and fund page as of July 14, 2026: Corgi SK Hynix 2x Daily ETF (SK) 0.50%; Leverage Shares 2x Long SK Hynix Daily ETF (SKHX) 0.75%; ProShares Ultra SK Hynix ETF (SKHU) 0.95%; GraniteShares 2x Long SK Hynix Daily ETF (SKUU) 1.50%; T-REX 2X Long SK Hynix Daily Target ETF (HYNX) 1.25%. Expense ratios are subject to change and new funds may launch, which could affect these comparisons.

Linker Finance is the growth engine for community banks, providing a unified platform that helps institutions grow deposits, launch digital account opening and digital banking experiences, streamline business onboarding, expand business banking capabilities and deliver fully branded mobile and online experiences for retail and commercial customers.

“Community banks’ growth has historically been limited by fragmentation, legacy infrastructure and access to specialized digital growth know-how, resulting in subpar customer experiences, complex operations and multi-year timelines,” said Jorge Garcia, CEO and Co-Founder of Linker Finance. “Over the last two years, we have proven that with the right product, technology and playbooks, community banks can consistently and predictably grow their balance sheet using Linker. This round gives us additional fuel to keep building the growth engine community banks need. We are grateful for the continued support of our existing investors and especially excited to welcome 22nd State Banking Company as a strategic bank investor. Their participation validates the value we are bringing to the community banking ecosystem.”

“Community banks carry an outsized share of the country’s most important lending, built through real relationships. Linker Finance gives them technology that matches that trust. Jorge and his team have continued to impress us with their execution since we originally invested. In addition, having a bank like 22nd State Banking Company join this round is the clearest validation there is. The people closest to the problem are betting on the solution” said Samara Mejia Hernandez, Founding Partner at Chingona Ventures.

The new funding will support Linker Finance’s continued product development across retail banking, business onboarding and business banking, while accelerating investment in its proprietary Agentic AI Customer Intelligence layer and expanding its multi-rail payments infrastructure, including cross-border and stablecoin-enabled capabilities.

Linker Finance is also introducing Grandir, an emerging Agentic AI layer built for the workflows and guardrails that community banks require.

“Delivering modern digital experiences while preserving trust and relationship-driven service is one of the biggest challenges we face as community bankers,” said Steve Smith, Vice Chairman, President and CEO of 22nd State Banking Company. “Always.bank, a division of 22nd State Banking Company, was built on the belief that customers should not have to choose between digital access and real human support. Linker Finance gives community banks the growth engine they need to compete at scale, expand beyond geography, and deliver modern relationship banking without losing what makes them trusted.” 

Since announcing its initial seed round, Linker Finance has expanded its product footprint and strategic partnerships across the community banking ecosystem. The company is focused on powering the 20x relationship-based community bank by bringing fintech-grade capabilities to community institutions without the cost, complexity or vendor fragmentation that has historically made those tools difficult to access. Linker’s platform supports deposit account opening, commercial onboarding, treasury and payments functionality, Customer Intelligence tools for bankers and back-office teams, and white-label digital banking experiences, while integrating with leading core providers and a broad ecosystem of third-party services for automated KYC/KYB, fraud detection, payments, analytics, and customer engagement.

“This is not just about adding digital tools,” Garcia added. “It is about giving community banks the infrastructure to grow deposits, deepen customer relationships, and launch new products with speed and confidence. Our mission is to help community banks compete in a digital-first world while preserving the trust and relationship-driven service that makes them essential. Our vision is powering the 20x Relationship-based Community Bank using the right combination of Technology, Playbooks, and Human touch.”

GOODFIN UNVEILS QUALIFIED SMALL BUSINESS STOCK (QSBS) FUND FOR VENTURE INVESTING TARGETING 0% FEDERAL CAPITAL GAINS TAX

AI Wealth Platform Now Enables Top Venture and Y Combinator-Backed Startups to Maximize After-Tax Returns For Their Founders, Shareholders and Investors

SAN FRANCISCO, July 14, 2026Goodfin, the agentic wealth platform expanding access to private market investing, today announced the launch of the Goodfin QSBS Venture Fund, designed to help accredited investors access high-growth startups while optimizing for Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS) tax benefits. The fund provides exposure to top venture and Y Combinator-backed companies that have been vetted for IRC Section 1202 / QSBS eligibility, potentially enabling investors to realize significant federal capital gains tax savings, including up to 0% federal tax on qualifying gains. State tax benefits may also apply depending on state of residence.

QSBS is one of the most powerful tax benefits available to startup founders, early employees, and investors. Every company in the fund is analyzed and vetted for Section 1202 eligibility by CapGains Inc., a tax optimization platform, before investing and during the fund’s holding period, covering the applicable corporate and security level QSBS requirements. Eligibility is documented at the time of investment, not retrofitted after the fact. 

“QSBS is one of the most under-used advantages in venture investing, but also one of the most complex to get right,” said Anna Joo Fee, Founder & CEO, Goodfin. “Goodfin built this fund to remove that friction.”

Every company is rigorously vetted for Section 1202 eligibility before investors come in. This allows them to access investments in high-quality venture and Y Combinator-backed startups with confidence that the tax treatment at exit has been targeted from the start of the investment and monitored throughout.

The fund is also well positioned for rollover-eligible investors looking to reinvest QSBS gains under Section 1045, putting their proceeds back to work in the next generation of startups, squarely in line with the legislative intent of keeping the US startup ecosystem thriving.

Highlights of the Goodfin QSBS Venture Fund include: 

  • Access to top VC & YC-backed startups – a curated portfolio of the most promising early-stage startups, typically at Seed through Series C, backed by tier-one venture investors and Y Combinator. Companies are selected for both investment merit and QSBS qualification, so investors are not trading returns for tax efficiency.
  • Certified & monitored eligibility – every company is evaluated and verified for Section 1202 eligibility before investment and monitored throughout the hold. 
  • Exclusion of up to $15M+ in gains per investment or 10X the cost basis- QSBS lets eligible startup equity holders and investors exclude up to $15M (or more) in capital gains from federal taxes. Investors may invest directly through the Goodfin QSBS Fund or roll over existing gains from a prior investment, with built-in tax optimization from day one. 
  • Benefits for participating startups – investors increasingly seek QSBS-eligible companies. Getting certified also makes a startup more attractive to sophisticated capital and talent and may be required for fundraising. 

Goodfin unlocks high-quality private market investing and accelerates wealth for a new generation of investors. The platform leverages agentic AI to deliver personalized portfolios, intelligent analysis, and institutional-grade guidance to a community of sophisticated investors who invest at the cutting edge of innovation shaping the future.
