Rhea-AI Filing Summary

NuScale Power Corporation reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Revenue for the quarter was $75 thousand, a decrease of $8.0 million from the prior-year period, mainly because Fluor FEED Phase 2 work for the RoPower project was completed in late 2025.

Net loss attributable to Class A common stockholders was $47.5 million, or $0.13 per share, compared with $17.6 million, or $0.13 per share, a year earlier, driven by higher R&D, G&A and other expenses, partially offset by increased investment income. Net cash used in operating activities for the first half of 2026 was $372.9 million.

NuScale ended the quarter with a stated $1.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments, supporting near-term commercial readiness. Strategic highlights included ENTRA1’s ongoing TVA discussions toward a potential power purchase agreement, progress on the RoPower SMR project in Romania, and a Paragon contract to complete HIPS design for the NuScale Power Module.

Positive

  • NuScale reported a $1.9 billion liquidity position in cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments at June 30, 2026, which the company states will support its near-term commercial readiness and deployment efforts.

Negative

  • Quarterly revenue declined by $8.0 million year-over-year to $75 thousand, while net cash used in operating activities reached $372.9 million in the first half of 2026, highlighting substantial cash burn ahead of commercial deployments.

Filing Explained

By June 30, 2026, Class A shares outstanding had risen to 410.4 million from 318.5 million, reducing existing holders’ percentage ownership absent offsetting changes.

NuScale Power filed an Item 2.02 Form 8-K on August 5, 2026 reporting second-quarter results; by June 30, 2026, Class A shares outstanding were 410,367,790 versus 318,480,601 at December 31, 2025, and the company reported $984,475 thousand of net proceeds from common-stock issuance.

Issuing additional shares increases the total share count and reduces an existing holder’s percentage ownership absent offsetting changes, so the disclosed issuance changes the ownership structure for existing common holders.

At June 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were $766.460 million, equal to 1185.6 days of the last reported quarterly operating cash use.

Cash and investments liquidity $1.9 billion Cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments as of June 30, 2026
small modular reactor technical
"advanced small modular reactor (SMR) nuclear technology, with a mission"
A small modular reactor is a compact nuclear power plant designed to generate electricity in smaller amounts compared to traditional reactors. It can be built in factories, then transported and assembled on-site, making it quicker and often cheaper to deploy. For investors, these reactors represent a potential source of clean energy with lower upfront costs and flexible scaling, which could influence future energy markets and infrastructure investments.
design certification regulatory
"the only U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission design certification in the SMR industry"
long-lead material technical
"Long-lead material work in process 68,553 63,767"
Noncontrolling interests financial
"Noncontrolling interests (47,652) (55,290)"
The portion of a subsidiary’s equity and profits that belongs to outside owners rather than the parent company; when a parent reports consolidated results it includes the whole subsidiary but shows the noncontrolling slice separately. Think of a company’s subsidiary as a pie where the parent owns most slices but some are held by other investors — noncontrolling interests tell you how much of the pie and its future earnings don’t belong to the parent, which affects how much profit and net assets are truly attributable to the parent’s shareholders.
Deferred revenue financial
"Deferred revenue 240 613"
Cash a company has already received for goods or services it has promised but not yet delivered; it's recorded as a liability because the company still owes that product, service, or future revenue recognition. For investors, deferred revenue signals upcoming work or deliveries that will convert into reported sales over time and affects short-term obligations, cash flow quality, and how quickly a firm can grow recognized revenue—think of it like prepaid subscriptions or gift cards a business must honor later.
large accelerated filer regulatory
"now that the initial costs associated with becoming a large accelerated filer have passed"
A large accelerated filer is a publicly traded company that meets the U.S. securities regulator’s size and reporting history thresholds, qualifying it as one of the largest issuers. For investors, that label matters because such companies face faster filing deadlines, more rigorous audit and internal-control disclosure requirements, and generally more transparent and timely financial reporting—like a big, well-regulated store required to post its inventory and receipts promptly for customers to see.

NuScale Power Reports Second Quarter 2026 Results Second Quarter 2026 Highlights • NuScale’s exclusive global strategic partner, ENTRA1 Energy (“ENTRA1”), continues to advance discussions with the Tennessee Valley Authority (“TVA”) toward a definitive power purchase agreement for potentially the largest nuclear power deployment program in U.S. history • NuScale is working with S.N. Nuclearelectrica S.A. (“Nuclearelectrica”) and RoPower Nuclear (“RoPower”) to satisfy conditions attached to Nuclearelectrica shareholders' vote to advance the RoPower project in Doicești, Romania, which would deploy six NuScale Power ModulesTM (“NPMs”) at a former coal plant site and represents the most advanced SMR effort in Europe • NuScale awarded Paragon, a leading supplier of safety-related products, a contract to complete final design development of the Highly Integrated Protection System (“HIPS”) for the NuScale Power Module – a critical milestone in the Company's supply chain readiness • NuScale ended the second quarter with a strong liquidity position of $1.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments to support near- term commercial readiness CORVALLIS, Ore. – August 5, 2026 – NuScale Power Corporation (NYSE: SMR) (“NuScale”, “NuScale Power” or the “Company”), the industry-leading provider of proprietary and innovative advanced SMR nuclear technology, today announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. “As demand for clean, reliable power grows more urgent by the day, the question for off- takers is no longer whether to go with nuclear — it is which technology can actually deliver, and when,” said John Hopkins, NuScale President and Chief Executive Officer. “At NuScale, we have spent years doing the work that makes near-term deployment possible, and that work is now substantially complete. We hold the only U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission design certification in the SMR industry, our technology runs on fuel that is proven and available today, and we have built a supply chain of more than 60 specialized partners with over 30 agreements already executed. No one is better positioned to deliver carbon-free, 24/7 power on the shortest possible timeline.”


 

Liquidity & Capital Resources • Ended the second quarter of 2026 with cash, cash equivalents, and short- and long- term investments of $1.9 billion. Financial Update • Revenue and cost of sales decreased by $8.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the revenue recognized from the work associated with the Fluor Front-End Engineering and Design (“FEED”) Phase 2 engineering services in support of the RoPower project, which was completed in late 2025, with no comparable activity in 2026. • Research and development (“R&D”) expenses increased $6.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of $7.1 million higher costs associated with the Company’s increased activities to advance the technological readiness and design maturity of our NPM components, partially offset by $0.6 million in lower regulatory costs as we received SDA approval in May 2025. • General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) increased $4.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to $1.2 million of higher personnel and equity-based compensation costs due to increased headcount and $3.9 million of higher organizational costs, partially offset by $1.0 million of lower legal fees now that the initial costs associated with becoming a large accelerated filer have passed. • Other expenses increased $8.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to (a) the Company’s engineers and project personnel working on fewer commercial projects than in the prior year, resulting in the lower allocation to cost of sales described above and (b) higher other compensation costs incurred as we have ramped up the resources supporting supply chain readiness and the delivery of future commercial projects. • Investment income increased $8.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of the Company’s stronger cash position and higher investments in cash equivalents, short- term investments and long-term investments.
