[424B5] NuScale Power Corporation Prospectus Supplement (Debt Securities)
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
NuScale Power Corporation has entered a Sales Agreement with UBS Securities LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC, B. Riley Securities, Canaccord Genuity LLC and Tuohy Brothers to offer up to $500,000,000 of Class A common stock on an "at the market" or negotiated basis. The company terminated its prior at-the-market program and may sell shares from time to time at prevailing market prices or in block transactions; sales agents are not required to sell any specific amount and may receive up to 3.0% of gross proceeds.
An illustrative scenario assumes sale of 12,706,480 shares at $39.35 per share for gross proceeds of $500,000,000, increasing NuScale's as-adjusted net tangible book value from $1.66 to $3.23 per share and producing an immediate dilution of $36.12 per share to new investors. Net proceeds are intended for general corporate purposes and the offering involves customary underwriting indemnities and fees; risks and dilution factors are described in the "Risk Factors" section.
Positive
- Up to $500,000,000 financing capacity provides balance sheet flexibility for general corporate purposes
- Example issuance increases existing shareholders' net tangible book value by $1.57 per share in the illustrative scenario
- Sales may be executed in negotiated block trades or at-the-market transactions, giving execution flexibility
Negative
- Illustrative issuance would cause immediate dilution of $36.12 per share to new investors
- Potential further dilution from 5,199,984 options, 4,493,419 RSUs and 16,037,111 shares available under the LTIP
- Sales agents are not required to sell any specific amount and sales at varying times/prices could pressure the share price
- Aggregate commissions up to 3.0% of gross proceeds plus estimated offering expenses (~$1,000,000) reduce net proceeds
Insights
TL;DR: NuScale secures an up-to-$500M ATM facility, giving financing flexibility but creating material dilution risk for new investors.
The Sales Agreement creates an available financing capacity of $500,000,000 via at-the-market and negotiated sales through five sales agents. Commissions are capped at 3.0%, and the firm terminated its prior ATM program to adopt this agreement. Management's example—selling 12,706,480 shares at $39.35—illustrates a substantial immediate dilution of $36.12 per share to purchasers, while increasing existing net tangible book value per share by $1.57. For investors, this is a trade-off between balance sheet flexibility and potential downward pressure on the share price from incremental supply and dilution.
TL;DR: The ATM is a standard capital markets tool providing execution flexibility; timing and volumes will determine market impact.
The agreement with UBS, TD Cowen, B. Riley, Canaccord and Tuohy Brothers allows staggered sales at market or negotiated prices, settlement typically T+1, and reporting each quarter of shares sold and net proceeds. Estimated offering expenses (excluding commissions) are ~$1,000,000. The arrangement includes indemnities for the agents and customary counsel fee-sharing. Market impact will depend on how aggressively NuScale instructs agents to sell versus market liquidity; the filing itself is material but not an operational development.
