Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that are not historical facts and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements regarding our financial position and business strategy and the expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “will,” “would,” “estimate,” “seek” and variations and similar words and expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report may include, for example, statements about:
our financial and business performance, including financial projections and business metrics;
the ability to obtain regulatory approvals to deploy our SMRs in the United States and abroad;
forecasts regarding end-customer adoption rates and demand for our products in markets that are new and rapidly evolving;
macroeconomic conditions;
developments and projections relating to our competitors and industry;
our anticipated growth rates and market opportunities;
the period over which we anticipate our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements;
litigation contingencies;
financial arrangements with CFPP LLC;
the potential for our business development efforts to maximize the potential value of our portfolio; and
our estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing.

Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance, but reflect management’s current beliefs, based on information currently available. Many factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those we have anticipated.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, are described in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in our 2022 10-K. If one or more of those risks or uncertainties materialize, or if any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in those forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that we currently consider immaterial, or which are unknown. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. Except as expressly required by applicable securities law, we disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. No person should take any statement regarding past trends or activities as a representation that the trends or activities will continue in the future.

The Company is majority owned by Fluor.

In December 2021, NuScale LLC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (“Spring Valley”) and Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Spring Valley. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into NuScale LLC (the “Company”“Merger”) is a blank check company incorporated, with NuScale LLC surviving the Merger (the “Surviving Company”), Spring Valley being renamed NuScale Corp, and NuScale LLC continuing to be held as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 20, 2020. wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in an “Up-C” structure.

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through September 30, 2020 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 23, 2020. On November 27, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,900,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement toreverse recapitalization under GAAP.

In addition, at November 27, 2020 cash of $2,722,982 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, an amount of $232,300,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earliest of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Proposed Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting commission and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the public shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Business Combination, either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, for an amount equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (initially $10.10 per Public Share), including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to certain limitations as described in the prospectus. The per-share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote ofacquirer. This determination reflects Legacy NuScale Equityholders holding a majority of the shareholders who attendvoting power of NuScale Corp, NuScale LLC’s pre-merger operations being the majority post-merger operations of NuScale Corp, and voteNuScale LLC’s management team retaining similar roles at NuScale Corp. Accordingly, although Spring Valley is the legal parent company, GAAP dictates that the financial statements of NuScale Corp will represent a general meetingcontinuation of NuScale LLC’s operations, with the Transaction being treated as though NuScale LLC issued ownership interests for Spring Valley, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of NuScale LLC are stated at historical cost, with no incremental goodwill or other intangible assets recorded for the effects of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and ArticlesTransaction with Spring Valley.

2.Summary of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest and other income earned on the Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.

The Company will initially have until May 27, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by May 27, 2022, it may, by resolution of the board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination one time, by an additional 6 months, subject to the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees purchasing additional Private Placement Warrants. The shareholders will not be entitled to vote or redeem their Public Shares in connection with any such extension. In order to extend the initial period of time to consummate a Business Combination for such six-month period, the Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees, must purchase an additional 2,300,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant and deposit the $2,300,000 in proceeds into the Trust Account on or prior to May 27, 2022. The Sponsor, its affiliates or permitted designees are not obligated to purchase additional Private Placement Warrants to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination.

The Company will have until May 27, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination, which is extendable at the Sponsor’s option up to six months, as described above (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the per share value deposited into the Trust Account ($10.10).

(Unaudited)

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of  (1) $10.10 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.10 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Proposed Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanyingCompany’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, theyrelated notes do not include allnotes and certain financial information normally presented annually under GAAP, and therefore should be read in conjunction with our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accounting measures at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. Although such estimates are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position,available, our reported results of operations or cash flows. Inmay not necessarily be indicative of results that we expect for the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensedfull year.
These financial statements includeare unaudited. In management’s opinion, they contain all adjustments consisting of a normal recurring nature which are necessary to present fairly our financial position and our operating results as of and for a fair presentationthe interim periods presented.

Principles of Consolidation

As part of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the period presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s prospectus for its Initial Public Offering as filed with the SEC on November 25, 2020, as well as the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on November 30, 2020 and December 3, 2020. The interim results for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the resultsTransaction, NuScale Corp has been determined to be expected for the period ending December 31, 2020 or for any future periods.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)primary beneficiary of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”NuScale Power, LLC (“NuScale LLC”), a variable interest entity (“VIE”). As the sole managing member of NuScale LLC, NuScale Corp has both the power to direct the activities, and it may take advantagedirect ownership to share in the revenues and expenses of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply withNuScale LLC. As such, all the auditor attestation requirementsactivity of Section 404 ofNuScale LLC has been consolidated in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revisedaccompanying condensed consolidated financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts ofstatements. All assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could changeincluded in the near term duebalance sheet are that of NuScale LLC, other than the NuScale Corp Warrants and certain prepaid insurance.

Changes in Presentation

Prior year amounts totaling $115, previously identified as Other cost share (interest expense) but currently described as Interest income (expense), have been reclassified to Sponsored other cost share to conform to the current year presentation on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Cash, and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all and Restricted Cash


Cash equivalents represent short-term, highly liquid investments, with an original maturitywhich are readily convertible to cash and have maturities of three months or less when purchasedat time of purchase. Cash equivalents with an initial maturity of between three and twelve months at time of purchase are presented as short-term investments on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Cash equivalents and short-term investments consist of certificates of deposit. These certificates of deposit are classified as held-to-maturity, and the estimated fair value of the investment approximates its amortized cost.

Cash in the amount of $34,182 is restricted as collateral for the letter of credit associated with the Development Cost Reimbursement Agreement (“DCRA”) at March 31, 2023 (See Note 13). The DCRA spans multiple years requiring the amount to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalentsclassified as of September 30, 2020.

Deferred Offering Costs

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounting to $12,467,354 were charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering (see Note 1). As of September 30, 2020, there were $483,163 of deferred offering costs recordeda noncurrent asset, included in Restricted cash in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Income Taxes

The Restricted cash balance plus Cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet equals cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, as reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.


Warrant Liability

The Company accounts for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Public and Private Placement Warrants has been estimated using the Public Warrants’ quoted market price. See note 4 for further discussion of the terms of the Warrants and note 5 for further discussion of the methodology used to determine the value of the Warrants.

Sponsored cost share

As we continue to advance our commercialization activities, we have begun to enter into cost share agreements with various entities, including both governmental and private, whereby NuScale is reimbursed for specific R&D performed. Currently, these entities include the DOE, United State Trade and Development Agency (“USTDA”) and CFPP, among others.

Beginning in 2014, the U.S. DOE has provided critical funding to NuScale through a series of cooperative agreements which support ongoing commercialization activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, DOE cost share totaled $12,354 and $20,462, respectively. Beginning in 2021, NuScale partnered with the USTDA to develop SMRs in foreign markets. Under the USTDA’s technical assistance grant program we receive cost share commitments to support licensing work in these foreign markets. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, USTDA cost share totaled $2,415 and $115, respectively. Finally, we receive cost share from CFPP, LLC as a subrecipient under a contract between the DOE and UAMPS for R&D performed with the goal of developing our first SMR. Under this agreement we received cost share of $2,939 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, with no cost share during the same period in the prior year.

Income Taxes

NuScale Corp accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a recognition thresholdusing the asset and a measurement attributeliability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial

statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated by applying existing tax laws and the rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the year of the enacted rate change.

Prior to the Transaction, the membership structure of NuScale LLC included units that had profit interests. The Company analyzed the calculation of net loss per unit for periods prior to the Transaction and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the readers of these financial statements.

Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On August 21, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering and formation costs of the Company in consideration for 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). In September 2020, the Sponsor transferred 40,000 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s directors. On October 22, 2020, the Sponsor effected a surrender of 1,437,500 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration, resulting in 5,750,000 Founder Shares outstanding. The Sponsor transferred all of the Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor to SV Acquisition Sponsor Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sponsor (“Holdco”), prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares that were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares would equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, a total of 750,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earliest of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Administrative Support Agreement

Commencing on November 23, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor up to $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

Promissory Note — Related Party

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2020, there were no Working Capital Loans outstanding.

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, its results of operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration and Shareholders Rights

Pursuant to a registration and shareholders rights agreement entered into on November 23, 2020, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration and shareholder rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the underwriters reimbursed the Company an aggregate of $750,000 for costs incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering.

Anchor Investments

Certain qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors not affiliated with any member of the Company’s management (the “Anchor Investors”) purchased 1,980,000 Units each in the Initial Public Offering and the Company directed the underwriters to sell to the anchor investors such number of Units. Further, each of the Anchor Investors entered into a separate agreement with the Sponsor pursuant to which each such investor purchased membership interests in Holdco representing an indirect beneficial interest in up to 142,187 Founder Shares upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering for up to $495.

NOTE 7 — SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

Preference Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of  (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Proposed Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private

Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company’s management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one-to-one.

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will becomeare currently exercisable on the later of  (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) one year from the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completiondate of a Business Combinationthe Transaction or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if  (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination

Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will beare exercisable on a cashless basis and beare non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.

NOTE 8 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

5.Fair Value Measurement
The Company evaluated subsequent eventsmeasures certain financial assets and transactionsliabilities at fair value. Fair value is a market-based measurement that occurred aftershould be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy, which prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach).
The levels of hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;
Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3 Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most stringent level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The carrying amount of certain financial instruments, including deposits, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible notes payable approximates fair value due to their short maturities.

Our Warrants are accounted for as liabilities pursuant to ASC 815-40 and are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. Changes in fair value of the Warrants are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations each period. Due to the similarity of the features of the Public and Private Warrants, management has concluded that the
10


NuScale Power Corporation
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except shares and per share amounts)
price of the Public Warrants would be used in the valuation of the Private Placement Warrants. However, since the two types of Warrants are not identical and the Private Warrants are not actively traded, we have classified the Private Placement Warrants as Level 2, while the Public Warrants are classified as Level 1.

The following table represents the Company’s financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2023:

(in thousands)Level 1Level 2Level 3Total
Warrant Liabilities: 
Public Warrants$15,772 $— $— $15,772

Total Warrant Liabilities as of March 31, 2023$15,772 $14,685 $— $30,457 
6.Accounts and Other Receivables
Accounts and other receivables include reimbursement requests outstanding from the DOE awards, interest receivable and commercial accounts receivable associated with other federal projects. The DOE reimbursement requests are recognized as eligible costs are incurred. Reimbursement under the awards is recognized as award funds are obligated, and are included in Department of Energy Cost Share in the consolidated statement of operations. Interest receivable of $329 was outstanding at March 31, 2023.

The majority of our receivables are either due from the U.S. federal government or have to do with a federal project. For these reasons, all receivables are deemed to be fully collectible and no allowance has been recorded.

8.Long-Term Contract Work In Process

During the first quarter, we entered into a long lead material contract with Carbon Free Power Project, LLC (“CFPP LLC”). Related to this contract, the Company has subcontracted for the purchase of certain long-lead materials in the amount of $54,600, that will be used in fabricating of the NPMs as part of the overall contract with CFPP LLC. This first phase of the project will be completed for CFPP, LLC near the end of 2024. The subcontractor is manufacturing the long-lead materials on behalf of NuScale, and we are considered the principal, rather than agent, under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The contract contains one performance obligation that will be satisfied once the materials are verified as received at the fabricator’s facility. As of March 31, 2023, $14,200 has been capitalized in the Long-term contract work in process line item on our consolidated balance sheet daterelated to this contract.

NuScale Power Corporation
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except shares and per share amounts)
Subsequent to March 31, 2023, upon meeting certain contract milestones, we have billed CFPP LLC $22,275, which will be classified as a long-term Deferred revenue liability on our consolidated balance sheet.
9.Employee Benefits
NuScale sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) Plan with Company contributions to be made at the sole discretion of management. Under the provisions of the 401(k) Plan, the Company matches the employees’ contributions for the first 3% of compensation and matches 50% of the employees’ contributions for the next 2% of compensation. The expense recorded for the 401(k) Plan was $751 and $672 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
10.Income Taxes
NuScale LLC was historically, and remains a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes with each partner being separately taxed on its share of taxable income or loss. NuScale Corp is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes, with respect to its distributive share of any net taxable income or loss and any related tax credits of NuScale LLC.

The effective tax rate was 0% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 differed significantly from the statutory rates, primarily due to the losses allocated to NCI and the recognition of a valuation allowance as a result of the Company’s new tax structure following the Transaction.

There was no income tax expense recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Company has assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets and in that analysis has considered the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at NuScale Corp as of March 31, 2023, which will be maintained until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.

The Company’s income tax filings will be subject to audit by various taxing jurisdictions. The Company will monitor the status of U.S. federal, state and local income tax returns that may be subject to audit in future periods. No U.S. federal, state and local income tax returns are currently under examination by the respective taxing authorities.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act, or IRA, was enacted which includes the following key summary provisions: (i) a 15% Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, or CAMT, that allows an offset of up to 75% with existing tax credit carryforwards, (ii) excise tax applicable to certain stock repurchases including ordinary buy backs and open market repurchases, (iii) extension and expansion of clean energy credits and incentives, and (iv) indefinite carryover of the CAMT. This legislation also provides transferability opportunities for certain newly generated credits as well as a direct pay option. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the enactment of the IRA did not result in any material adjustment to our income tax provision.

11.Equity-Based Compensation
The total compensation expense recognized for common share options and time-based RSU awards during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $3,637 and $1,021, respectively. This includes G&A expense of $1,493 and other expense of $2,144 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $444 of G&A expense and $577 in other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Effective January 1, 2023, the share pool was automatically increased by 8,972,128, which is the number of shares of Class A common stock equal to four percent (4%) of the aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding on December 31, 2022, excluding any such outstanding shares of Class A common
stock that were granted under the 2022 long-term incentive plan and remain unvested and subject to forfeiture as of December 31, 2022.

Common Unit Appreciation Rights

In April 2013, the Company didgranted its Chief Executive Officer 1,000,000 NuScale LLC common unit appreciation rights (“UARs”). The UARs vested one-third each year on the anniversary of the grant date. Upon exercise of a UAR, the holder would receive common units equal to the excess of the fair value of the common units over the strike price of $0.11 at the grant date multiplied by the number of rights exercised and divided by the fair value of the common unit upon exercise.

In February 2022, the NuScale LLC Board of Managers approved a $1,540 cash payment (paid during the three months ended June 30, 2022) in lieu of equity issuance related to the UARs, which triggered recognition of $1,490 of equity-based compensation expense, included in G&A, during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

12.Related Party Transactions
From time to time, the Company enters into strategic agreements with Fluor, whereby Fluor or NuScale perform services for one another. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, NuScale incurred expenses of $8,726 and $3,601, respectively. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NuScale owes Fluor, as accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, amounts totaling $9,162 and $7,694, respectively. For
13

the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, NuScale earned revenue of $4,014 and $1,561, respectively. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Fluor owes NuScale $6,101 and $1,508, respectively, amounts which are included in accounts and other receivables on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 Fluor accounted for 72.9% of total revenue.
13.Commitments and Contingencies

In the regular course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims incidental to the normal course of business. Additionally, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims relating to the Transaction with Spring Valley. These legal proceedings relate to the level of disclosure of matters prior to the Transaction, which the Company believes were timely addressed well before the Transaction. The Company does not identifybelieve that any subsequent eventsof the claims are material to the Company. Management does not believe that would have required adjustmentresolution of any of these matters will materially affect the Company’s financial position or disclosureresults of operations.

On September 19, 2022, thirteen purported members of NuScale LLC filed suit in the financial statements.

U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon against NuScale LLC, Fluor Enterprises, Japan NuScale Innovation, Inc., and Sargent & Lundy Holdings, LLC. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of individuals who held common units or options to purchase common units in NuScale LLC and seek declaratory relief and damages based on breach of contract and other common law claims. The claims are based on amendments to the operating agreement of NuScale LLC in connection with the Merger between NuScale LLC and Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. Plaintiffs claim, among other things, that such amendments breached NuScale LLC’s 5
th Amended and Restated Operating Agreement and required the consent of holders of common units in NuScale LLC voting as a separate class. NuScale LLC filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on November 21, 2022. Plaintiffs filed a response on January 17, 2023, and NuScale LLC filed a reply on February 14, 2023. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, the Company does not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the Company has not recorded any liability as a result of these actions.


In conjunction with DOE Office of Nuclear Energy Award DE-NE0008935 with Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems’ (“UAMPS”) wholly owned subsidiary, CFPP LLC, the Company entered into a DCRA, pursuant to which it is developing the NRC license application and performing other site licensing and development activities. Under the DCRA, the Company may be obligated to refund to UAMPS a percentage of its net development costs up to a specified cap, which varies based on the stage of project development, if certain performance criteria are not met. As of March 7, 2023, when the Company entered into Amendment 3 of the DCRA and the Long Lead Material Reimbursement Agreement with CFPP LLC, the maximum reimbursement based on the current stage of project development was $81,000. As of March 31, 2023 the net development costs incurred by UAMPS totaled $29,805.

Under the DCRA, the Company is required to have credit support to fund the amount of its potential reimbursement of these net development costs. A stipulation of obtaining the letter of credit is for the Company to segregate funds from the operating bank accounts as collateral for the letter of credit. This account is identified as restricted cash in the amount of $34,182, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and acts as collateral for the $33,500 letter of credit outstanding at March 31, 2023. On April 17, 2023, this letter of credit was increased to $44,200.

In December 2022, NuScale and Fluor provided CFPP LLC with the results of an economic competitiveness test (“ECT”) comparing the calculated levelized cost of electricity (“LCOE”) for the Carbon Free Power Project (the “CFPP”) with the price target of $58.00/MWh as provided for under the amended DCRA. The LCOE exceeded the price target, meaning there was an ECT Failure. As a result of the ECT Failure UAMPS Members participating in the CFPP were given the opportunity to exit the Project. CFPP LLC had until March 1, 2023 to deliver notice that it intended to terminate its participation in the Project. If CFPP LLC had issued notice that it intended to terminate its participation in the Project by March 1, 2023, the Company could have been liable to pay CFPP LLC approximately $29,805 and the Company would then have had the option to take over the Project assets and continue to develop the CFPP. However, on March 1, 2023, UAMPS notified NuScale confirming that sufficient Project Participants have opted to continue with CFPP development notwithstanding the ECT failure. The next ECT is scheduled to be run in conjunction with the submission of the Class 2 Project Cost Estimate.

Overview

Our mission is to provide scalable advanced nuclear technology to produce electricity, heat and clean water to improve the quality of life for people around the world. We are changing the power that changes the world by creating an energy source that is smarter, cleaner, safer and cost competitive.
Our small modular reactor (“SMR”), known as NuScale Power Module (“NPM”), provides a blank check company incorporatedscalable power plant solution incorporating enhanced safety, improved affordability and extended flexibility for diverse electrical and process heat applications. Our scalable design provides carbon-free energy at a reduced cost when compared with gigawatt-sized nuclear facilities.
Since our founding in 2007, we have made significant progress towards commercializing the first SMR in the Cayman Islands onUnited States. In 2017, we submitted our Design Certification Application (“DCA”) to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”). On August 20,28, 2020, formedthe NRC issued its Final Safety Evaluation Report, representing the NRC’s completion of its technical review. On September 11, 2020 the NRC issued its Standard Design Approval (“SDA”) of our NPM and scalable plant design. With this phase of NuScale’s DCA now complete, customers may proceed with plans to develop NuScale power plants with the understanding that the NRC has approved the safety aspects of the NPM and plant design. We expect our operating losses and negative operating cash flow to grow until the commercialization of the NPM. On January 19, 2023, the NRC published in the Federal Register a final rule that certifies NuScale’s SMR design for use in the United States, which became effective 30 days after publication.

Merger with Spring Valley

In December 2021, NuScale LLC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. (“Spring Valley”) and Spring Valley Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Spring Valley. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into NuScale LLC (the “Merger”), with NuScale LLC surviving the Merger (the “Surviving Company”), Spring Valley being renamed NuScale Corp, and NuScale LLC continuing to be held as a wholly controlled subsidiary of NuScale Power Corporation in an “Up-C” structure. On May 2, 2022, the Merger Agreement and Merger (collectively the “Transaction”) was completed.

The Transaction is shown as a reverse recapitalization under GAAP. Spring Valley is the acquired company, with NuScale LLC treated as the acquirer. This determination reflects Legacy NuScale Equityholders holding a majority of the voting power of NuScale Corp, NuScale LLC’s pre-merger operations being the majority post-merger operations of NuScale Corp, and NuScale LLC’s management team retaining similar roles at NuScale Corp. Accordingly, although Spring Valley is the legal parent company, GAAP dictates that the financial statements of NuScale Corp will represent a continuation of NuScale LLC’s operations, with the Transaction being treated as though NuScale LLC issued ownership interests for Spring Valley, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of NuScale LLC are stated at historical cost, with no incremental goodwill or other intangible assets recorded for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceedseffects of the Initial Public Offering andTransaction with Spring Valley.

The following table provides the salehistorical cost of the Private Placement Warrants, our shares, debt orassets and liabilities assumed as a combinationresult of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Changes in Presentation

Prior year amounts totaling $115, previously identified as Other cost share (interest expense) but currently described as Interest income (expense), have been reclassified to Sponsored other cost share to conform to the current year presentation on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue

The increase in revenue was attributable to activities in support of the EPCDA for CFPP, as well as nuclear technologies consulting services.

General and Administrative
G&A expenses increased as a result of $1.2 million in accounting, advertising and marketing expenses, $0.8 million of higher insurance costs, $1.1 million in equity-based compensation and $0.8 million in compensation costs.
Other

Other expenses increased by $4.0 million in compensation costs resulting from department restructuring and adding operational supervisory staff to support commercialization, $1.5 million in equity-based compensation and $1.4 million in software and hardware expenses.

Sponsored cost share
The DOE cost share decreased by $8.1 million as a result of decreased funding in the current year combined with a lower cost share percentage during the 2023 fiscal year. This was partially offset be new cost share agreements with various entities.

Interest income (expense)

The increase is due to $3.1 million of interest income earned on certificates of deposit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our R&D activities and our near-term business operations, including our contractual obligations and other commitments. Our current liquidity needs primarily involve R&D activities for the ongoing development of the NPM and associated plant design.
We had $218.2 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023, compared to $217.7 million as of December 31, 2022. We had no debt on either date.
Since NuScale’s inception, we have neither engaged in any operations norincurred significant operating losses; we have had negative operating cash flow during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022; and we have an accumulated deficit of $193.1 million as of March 31, 2023. Management expects that operating losses and negative cash flows may increase because of additional costs and expenses related to the development of technology and the development of market and strategic relationships with other companies.

To date, we have not generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through September 30, 2020 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below.material revenue. We do not expect to generate any operating revenuesmeaningful revenue unless and until afterwe are able to commercialize our NPM and related services. We expect our costs to increase in connection with the advancement of our products and services toward commercialization. In addition, with the completion of our initial Business Combination. Wethe Transaction, we expect to generate non-operatingincur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. While we believe that the proceeds of the Transaction will be sufficient to reach commercialization of our NPM, certain costs are not reasonably estimable at this time, and we may require additional funding and our projections anticipate certain customer-sourced income inthat is not assured and DOE funds that are granted under the formcooperative agreement secured by the Company are subject to Congressional appropriations. Further, the debt ceiling and appropriations discussions currently taking place within Congress could have a material impact on the Company’s cash projections.

We believe that based on our current level of interest income on marketable securities held afteroperating expenses and currently available cash resources, we will have sufficient funds available to cover R&D activities and operating cash needs for the Initial Public Offering. We expectnext twelve months. However, considering that we have not yet completed the development of a commercial product and have no meaningful revenue to date, we may require additional funds in future years. Our ability to raise funds through equity offerings may be limited by the significant number of shares that may be publicly sold, including the shares registered for resale under the registration statement on Form S-1 that was declared effective by the SEC on June 30, 2022. Such sales may negatively affect the market price of our shares of Class A common stock. In particular, a large sale by Fluor, our majority shareholder, could significantly affect our stock price. We believe the likelihood that Warrant holders will incur increased expensesexercise their Warrants, and therefore the amount of cash proceeds that we would receive from such exercises, depends on the trading price of our shares of Class A common stock, which from time to time, has exceeded the $11.50 Warrant exercise price, before the Warrants expire. In certain circumstances, the Warrants can be exercised on a cashless basis. Our ability to fund R&D activities and our operating cash needs for multiple years does not depend on the proceeds we may receive as athe result of beingexercises of Warrants.

Liquidity and three months ended March 31, 2023.


Capital Resources

In conjunction with DOE Office of Nuclear Energy Award DE-NE0008935 with Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems’ (“UAMPS”) wholly owned subsidiary, Carbon Free Power Project, LLC (“CFPP LLC”), we entered into a Development Cost Reimbursement Agreement (“DCRA”), pursuant to which we are developing the NRC license application and performing other site licensing and development activities. Under the DCRA, we may be obligated to refund to UAMPS a percentage of its net development costs up to a specified cap, which varies based on the stage of project development, if certain performance criteria are not met. As of September 30, 2020,March 7, 2023, when we had no cash. Until the consummationentered into Amendment 3 of the Initial Public Offering,DCRA and the Long Lead Material Reimbursement Agreement with CFPP LLC, the maximum reimbursement based on the current stage of project development is $81.0 million. As of March 31, 2023 the net development costs incurred by UAMPS totaled $29.8 million.

Under this agreement, the Company is required to have credit support to fund the amount of our only sourcepotential reimbursement of liquidity wasthese net development costs. This letter of credit is updated quarterly based on an initial purchaseagreed upon forecasted estimate of ordinary shares bynet development costs. A stipulation of attaining the Sponsor and loansletter of credit requires the Company segregate funds from our Sponsor.

Subsequent to the endoperating bank accounts as collateral for said letter of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, on November 27, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which included the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment optioncredit. This account is identified as restricted cash in the amount of 3,000,000 Units,$34.2 million, on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and acts as collateral for the $33.5 million letter of credit outstanding at March 31, 2023.


In December 2022, NuScale and Fluor provided CFPP LLC with a Class 3 Project Cost Estimate (“PCE”). As provided for in the DCRA (as amended), NuScale ran an economic competitiveness test (“ECT”) comparing the PCE with a price target of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing$58.00/MWh for a target COD of the Initial Public Offering, we consummatedProject. The PCE exceeded the sale of 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor atprice target, meaning there was an ECT failure. As a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant generating gross proceeds of $8,900,000.


Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exerciseresult of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $232,300,000 was placedECT failure UAMPS Members participating in the Trust Account, and weCFPP (“Project Participants”) were given the opportunity to exit the Project. CFPP LLC had $2,722,982 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs relateduntil March 1, 2023 (unless extended by mutual agreement), to the Initial Public Offering, and available for working capital purposes. We incurred $12,467,354 in transaction costs, including $3,850,00 of underwriting fees, $8,050,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $567,354 of other offering costs.

We intenddeliver notice that it intended to use substantially all of the funds heldterminate its participation in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, which interest shall be net of taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting commissions,Project. If CFPP LLC had issued notice that it intended to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a Business Combination, the remaining proceeds heldterminate its participation in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to financeProject by March 1, 2023, the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2020. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, whichCompany would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreementliable to pay an affiliateCFPP LLC approximately $29.8 million and would have had the option to take over the Project assets and continue to develop CFPP. However, on March 1, 2023, UAMPS notified NuScale that sufficient Project Participants have opted to continue with CFPP development notwithstanding the ECT failure. The next ECT is scheduled to be run in conjunction with the submission of the Sponsor a monthly feeClass 2 PCE. For information regarding the consequences of $10,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial, and administrative support services provided to the Company. We began incurring these fees on November 23, 2020 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination andan ECT failure, see Commercialization Risk Factors associated with the Company’s liquidation.

The underwriter is entitledobligations to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Pursuant to a registration and shareholders rights agreement entered into on November 23, 2020, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that we will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration and shareholder rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering our securities. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting policies.

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

None.

Legal Proceedings

In the regular course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims incidental to the normal course of business. Additionally, we are involved in various legal proceedings and claims relating to the Transaction. These legal proceedings relate to the level of disclosure of matters prior to the Transaction, which the Company believes were timely addressed well before the Transaction. We do not believe that any of the claims are material to the Company. Management does not believe that resolution of any of these matters will materially affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

On September 19, 2022, thirteen purported members of NuScale LLC filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon against NuScale LLC, Fluor Enterprises, Japan NuScale Innovation, Inc., and Sargent & Lundy Holdings, LLC. The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of individuals who held common units or options to purchase common units in NuScale LLC and seek declaratory relief and damages based on breach of contract and other common law claims. The claims are based on amendments to the operating agreement of NuScale LLC in connection with the Merger between NuScale LLC and Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. Plaintiffs claim, among other things, that such amendments breached NuScale LLC’s 5th Amended and Restated Operating Agreement and required the consent of holders of common units in NuScale LLC voting as a separate class. NuScale LLC filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on November 21, 2022. Plaintiffs filed a response January 17, 2023, and NuScale LLC filed a reply on February 14, 2023. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, we do not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred and we have not recorded any liability as a result of these actions.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Except as set forth below, as of the date of this Quarterly Report, thereRisk Factors

There have been no material changes with respect to thosefrom our risk factors previouslyas disclosed in our Registration Statement filed with the SEC. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect2022 Annual Report on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations.

The securities in which we invest the funds held in the Trust Account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the value of the assets held in trust such that the per-share redemption amount received by public shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share.

The proceeds held in the Trust Account are invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. While short-term U.S. government treasury obligations currently yield a positive rate of interest, they have briefly yielded negative interest rates in recent years. Central banks in Europe and Japan pursued interest rates below zero in recent years, and the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve has not ruled out the possibility that it may in the future adopt similar policies in the United States. In the event that we are unable to complete our initial business combination or make certain amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our public shareholders are entitled to receive their pro-rata share of the proceeds held in the Trust Account, plus any interest income not released to us, net of taxes payable. Negative interest rates could impact the per-share redemption amount that may be received by public shareholders.

Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On November 27, 2020, we consummated our Initial Public OfferingUnregistered Sales of 23,000,000 Units, inclusiveEquity Securities and Use of 3,000,000 Units sold to the underwriters upon the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Cowen and Company, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acted as book-running managers. Drexel Hamilton, LLC and Siebert Williams Shank and Co., LLC acted as co-managers. The securities sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on registration statements on Form S-1 (No. 333-249067). The registration statements became effective on November 23, 2020.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the full exercise of the over-allotment option, we consummated a private placement of 8,900,000 Private Placement Warrants to our Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $8,900,000. Such securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Of the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering including the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, $232,300,000 was placed in the Trust Account.

We paid a total of $3,850,000 in underwriting discounts, net of $750,000 reimbursements from the underwriters, and commissions and $567,354 for other offering costs related to the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $8,050,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions.
