Oklo (NYSE: OKLO) sets up $1.5B ATM equity program to fund advanced nuclear growth
Oklo Inc. is launching an at-the-market equity program to offer up to $1.5 billion of Class A common stock through multiple sales agents under a Form S-3 shelf. Shares may be sold from time to time on the NYSE or through other permitted methods, with the company paying up to a 1.5% sales commission.
Oklo plans to use any net proceeds for general corporate purposes, working capital, capital expenditures, and potential investments as it develops its Aurora fast fission powerhouses and related fuel-recycling facilities. The company highlights extensive regulatory and deployment progress, including milestones with the U.S. Department of Energy and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, as it pursues a power-purchase-agreement model for small advanced reactors.
The filing emphasizes that investors in this program could experience immediate and future dilution, illustrated by an example that assumes sales at $91.84 per share and shows a significant gap between the assumed price and adjusted net tangible book value. Oklo also details substantial business and policy risks, including reliance on favorable government incentives and tax credits, access to advanced nuclear fuels such as HALEU, potential cost inflation, and the early-stage nature of its commercial projects.

FAQ
What is Oklo (OKLO) offering in this 424B5 prospectus supplement?
Oklo is establishing an at-the-market equity program to sell up to $1.5 billion of its Class A common stock from time to time under a previously filed $3.5 billion shelf registration statement. Sales will be made through designated sales agents on the NYSE or other permitted venues.
How will Oklo (OKLO) use the proceeds from the $1.5 billion ATM program?
Oklo states it currently intends to use net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, working capital, capital expenditures, and potential future investments, supporting development and deployment of its Aurora powerhouses and fuel-recycling infrastructure.
What dilution impact does Oklo describe for investors in this offering?
Using an assumed public offering price of $91.84 per share, Oklo illustrates that new investors would face immediate dilution of $76.50 per share, based on an adjusted net tangible book value of $15.34 per share compared with the assumed purchase price.
How many shares of Oklo common stock were outstanding before this ATM example?
Oklo reports that as of September 30, 2025, its historical net tangible book value was $1.2 billion, or $7.49 per share, based on 156,186,456 shares of common stock outstanding at that date. This figure is provided as context for the dilution analysis.
What is Oklo’s core business model as described in the filing?
Oklo is developing Aurora fast fission powerhouses, small advanced nuclear plants designed to run on fresh, recycled, or down-blended fuel. Rather than selling reactors, Oklo plans to sell electricity and heat under power purchase agreements, targeting recurring revenue and leveraging its own fuel-recycling capabilities.
What key regulatory and deployment milestones does Oklo highlight?
Oklo cites a site use permit and fuel award from the U.S. Department of Energy for Idaho National Laboratory, an MOA with DOE Idaho Operations, completion of a Phase I pre-application readiness assessment with the NRC for a Combined License, selection for multiple DOE Reactor Pilot Program projects, and NRC acceptance of its Principal Design Criteria topical report.
What major risks does Oklo identify related to this offering and its capital strategy?
Oklo notes that investors may experience immediate and future dilution from this and potential future equity or convertible debt offerings. It also warns that its business plan depends partly on government policies and incentives such as tax credits, and that changes to these programs or limitations on eligibility could adversely affect its financial condition and project economics.
