Cautious Outlook for NuScale Power Amidst Monetization Challenges and Uncertain TimelinesWe maintain our Neutral rating and reduce our PT to $20 from $38. We revise our 2025/26/27/28E cash EBITDA to $(130)/40/216/412mn from $(112)/40/216/412mn to reflect 3Q25 results and milestone payments under the ENTRA1 milestones agreement. Our adj. EBITDA revisions translate to changes in our adj. EPS estimates. We remain cautiously optimistic on the outlook for U.S. nuclear development broadly with concerns over capital needs for project development and potential delays and cost overruns.

NuScale Power's Uncertain Financial Outlook and Reliance on Public Equity Prompt Sell RatingWe believe another customer contract or a firm deal with TVA by year-end are unlikely. Maintain Sell. TVA/ENTRA1 Details — In August, NuScale entered into a Partnership Milestones Agreement (PMA) with ENTRA1. Under the terms, the non-binding agreement between ENTRA1 and TVA triggered a ~$495mm payment (~15% of the total ~$3.3B anticipated contribution). Of the total, SMR paid $148.5mm in 3Q25 with $99mm due by YE25 and ~$248 due by YE26. Recall, the partnership contribution ranges from $35mm-$55mm per NPM, implying an average of ~$45mm per NPM. Milestone payments will be made as project stages advance. The next two tranches are 1) 35% upon signing of a binding PPA and 2) 50% upon execution of an OEM manufacturing agreement for NPMs. Following a PPA between the timing and scope still unknown, NuScale expects to sign an OEM agreement with ENTRA1 (see note).
