Core business and product

• Primary product: SOLO Micro-Modular Nuclear Reactor (MMR).
• Power and thermal output: 1 MWe electrical per SOLO module; thermal output 4 MWt (55°C heat) or 5 MWt (450°C steam).
• Fuel and materials: Uses Low Enriched Uranium (LEU) with 4.95% U-235 enrichment. Moderator is a solid Be/Graphite matrix; fuel rods use Zircaloy cladding.
• Cooling and safety: Gas-cooled reactor using helium; designed with redundant shutdown mechanisms and multiple independent safety systems.
• Containment: Encased in a 2.5-meter-thick concrete shield (“Monolith”) for biological shielding; designed so the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) is limited to the Operations Boundary.
• Physical characteristics and transport: Approximately 6.5 meters in height, ~2.4 meters cross-section, ~60 metric tons. Designed for factory assembly and transport on standard highways.
• Lifespan and fuel cycle: Designed to operate 15 years without refueling per unit; potential total lifespan up to 45 years with core/reactor swaps. HALEU compatibility and accident-tolerant fuel (ATF) are potential future adaptations. Capable of co-generation of heat and electricity.
• Modularity and scalability: Scales from 1 MWe (one SOLO) to roughly 1 GWe with ~1,000 SOLOs. Fleet redundancy supports high availability during maintenance.
• Regulatory engagement: NRC regulatory engagement plan submitted January 2025; targeting licensing and deployment of a First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) reactor by 2028.
• Manufacturing and deployment model: Fabless contracting model relying on third-party nuclear-grade suppliers and established manufacturing facilities; direct sale of SOLO reactors with complementary service and maintenance packages for diverse end-user sites.

Markets and applications

• Target sectors: Industrial operations, logistics and transportation, data centers, energy storage, civil and commercial facilities, and underserved communities.
• Use cases: Point-of-use power for electricity and process heat, modular replication to meet customer needs, district heating, process heat, and cogeneration.
• Siting: Designed to allow operations near or within populated areas due to compact size and EPZ considerations.

Intellectual property

• Strategy: Patents, trademarks, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements, and licensing arrangements.
• Patent activity: Multiple U.S. patent applications with stated expiration terms (e.g., 2045–2046 for several applications).
• Filings: PCT filings for two provisional patents submitted April 20, 2026; anticipated protection terms around 21 years from filing dates.
• Risks: Patent validity, third-party challenges, geographic limitations, and freedom-to-operate considerations.

Manufacturing, supply chain, and facilities

• Manufacturing model: Fabless, contract manufacturing with reliance on third-party suppliers and nuclear-quality assurance standards, including references to 10 CFR 50 Appendix B.
• Key materials and components: Certain materials, such as moderator graphite, are produced by a limited number of suppliers; some components require international sourcing and nuclear-specific qualifications.
• Supply chain risks: Long lead times, cost volatility, inflation, geopolitical factors, export/import controls, and local-content requirements in some markets.
• Facilities: Headquarters in Lucca, Italy. Subleased office space from a related party (Nine Nuclear and Industrial Engineering S.R.L.) for 24 months starting April 1, 2025; annual rent €11,400 (approx. $12,320) plus utilities (€50/month). Rent adjusts annually at 75% of CPI beginning April 1, 2026.
• Employment: 5 employees as of December 31, 2025; four executive directors provide services; contractors engaged as needed.

Financial position

• Revenue: The company has not generated revenue since inception.
• Profitability and cash flow: Net losses and negative operating cash flow in 2024 and 2025.
• Accumulated deficit: Approximately $607.3 million as of December 31, 2025.
• Capital and liquidity: Capital-intensive business model dependent on external funding; ongoing discussions of equity financing and potential dilution.
• Dividend policy: No dividends expected in the foreseeable future; any dividends would depend on available equity and reserves and compliance with Dutch law.

Public company and governance

• Corporate status: Dutch public company, with operational dependence on Terra OpCo for funds.
• Compliance and controls: Subject to U.S. securities laws and Dutch law. Material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting have been identified and are being remediated.
• Reporting status: The company qualifies as an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company, with certain disclosure exemptions until it transitions to full public-company reporting requirements.

Key risks and forward-looking intentions

• Regulatory: Nuclear design requires regulatory approvals (NRC and international equivalents); FOAK licensing by 2028 is a target, not a guarantee.
• Market and commercial: No binding customer contracts; memoranda of understanding with potential purchasers are non-binding.
• Execution and cost: High capital requirements, potential deployment delays, and reliance on third-party manufacturing.
• Operational: Cybersecurity, safety, and environmental compliance considerations.
• Tax and cross-border matters: Tax residency and cross-border tax considerations between Italy and the Netherlands; PFIC considerations for U.S. holders.
• Public perception and geopolitical: Public opinion on nuclear energy, regulatory scrutiny, and supply chain geopolitical risks.
• Forward-looking intentions: Commercial deployment of SOLO targeted by 2028; LEU fuel now with HALEU compatibility planned for future longer lifespans; market approach focused on direct reactor sales with ancillary services and modular scaling.

Quantitative highlights

• SOLO unit specifications: 1 MWe electrical, 4 MWt thermal (55°C) or 5 MWt (450°C steam); ~6.5 m tall; ~2.4 m cross-section; ~60 metric tons; LEU fuel (4.95% U-235).
• Lifespan: 15 years refueling-free per unit; potential 45-year total life with core/reactor swaps (HALEU path may enable similar extension).
• Corporate and financial: 5 employees (12/31/2025); no revenue; accumulated deficit ≈ $607.3 million; negative operating cash flow in 2024 and 2025.
