The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments the Company considers necessary for the fair presentation of its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods covered, and of the financial position of the Company at the date of the interim condensed consolidated balance sheet. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s prospectus dated April 23, 2026, filed with the SEC on April 27, 2026.
Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and short and long-term investments. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of nonperformance by counterparties. The Company generally does not require collateral to support the obligations of the counterparties and cash levels held at banks may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by maintaining its cash and cash equivalents and investments at highly rated financial institutions and investing in U.S. Government securities and high credit quality issuers. Further, the Company’s revenue and credit relationships are primarily concentrated within the United States Government which represents a concentration risk but a low credit risk.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, two customers, the U.S. Government and the DOW Chemical Company (“Dow”) accounted for 92% and 4%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenue and grant income. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the United States Government and Dow accounted for 82% and 10%, respectively, of the Company’s total revenue and grant income. Refer to Note 3 —Revenue Recognition for further disaggregation of revenue and grant income by customer for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
The Company’s receivable balances related to services revenue and government grants with the United States Department of Energy (“DOE”) and United States Department of War are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 3 — REVENUE AND GRANT INCOME RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue under contracts with customers to provide nuclear reactor and fuel design engineering services in the areas of research and development, systems engineering, and technology development. The Company’s revenues are generally derived from contract services predominantly performed for the U.S. Government and commercial entities. All revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were recognized over time.
There are three main types of contracts: cost-based contracts, cost-plus fixed fee contracts, and time and materials. Under cost-based and cost-plus fixed fee contracts, the total consideration in the Company’s contracts is paid in the form of incremental incurred cost reimbursements over time upon submission of invoices. Under time-and-materials contracts, the total consideration is based on contractually agreed upon labor rates for hours worked, plus reimbursement of materials and other costs incurred.
The allowability of certain costs under government contracts is subject to audit by the government. Certain indirect costs are charged to contracts using provisional or estimated indirect rates, which are subject to later revision based on actual costs incurred and subject to government audits of those costs. Refer to Note 15 —Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion of these cost audits.
Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (“ARDP”)
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company was named an awardee under the Department of Energy’s ARDP.

Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (amounts billable where the right to consideration is unconditional), contract assets (for which certain conditions must be satisfied before the right to bill is obtained), and contract liabilities (customer advances and deposits) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., biweekly or monthly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones. Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in unbilled receivables. However, the Company sometimes receives advances or deposits from its customers, or bills customers where it has an unconditional right to consideration before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.
Contract liabilities as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025 include deferred revenue. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has deferred revenue of$21.9 million, of which$18.0 million is recorded in Long-term deferred revenue and$3.9 million is recorded within Accrued liabilities.$2.3 million of the Long-term deferred revenue is attributable to related parties.

The C-2 Notes provided holders with conversion rights into equity securities under certain conditions, including upon an IPO or at the holder’s election after August 4, 2023.
The Series C-2 Convertible Notes contained embedded derivatives which, absent the election of the fair value option, would have been bifurcated and accounted for at fair value.

Refer to Note 18 —Subsequent Events for additional information regarding the IPO and related changes to the Company’s capital structure and Unit holder rights.
Common Units
The holders of Class A Common Units are entitled to one vote for each unit of Class A Common Units held at all meetings of stockholders. The voting, dividend, and liquidation rights of the holders of Class A Common Units are subject to and qualified by the rights, powers, and privileges of the holders of Preferred Units set forth in the original or amended Certificate of Incorporation. The Class A Common Units have been classified as mezzanine equity as they are redeemable for cash upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside of the Company’s control.
The Class B Common Units have the same rights and preferences as the Class A Common Units; provided, however, that the Class B Common Units shall not have voting rights and are subject to a profits interest threshold as may be set forth in grant agreements under the Company’s unit-based compensation plan discussed in Note 12 —Unit-Based Compensation Expense.
The Class B Common Units are classified as Mezzanine equity as they are redeemable for cash upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside of the Company’s control.
Series A Preferred Units
The Series A Preferred Units were issued to a related party in 2023 in conjunction with the Series A Preferred financing. The units were recognized at fair market value on the issuance date.
Series A-1 Preferred Units
The Series A-1 Preferred Units were issued in 2023 together with the Series C Preferred Units and certain Series B Common Units in exchange for a cash investment of $50.0 million. The Series A-1 Preferred Units were initially recognized at their relative fair market value.
Series B Preferred Units
The Series B Preferred Units were issued prior to 2023. The Series B Preferred Units were initially recognized at fair market value.
Series C Preferred Units
During 2023, the Company issued 16.3 million Series C Preferred Units through a financing transaction, a related-party investment (resulting in a loss on issuance), and the conversion of C-1 outstanding notes.
During 2024,20.8 million Series C Preferred Units were issued in connection with the conversion of the C-1 notes, the C-2 Note Conversion, and the exercise of the October 2022 warrants. The Series C Preferred Units issued as a result of these transactions were recognized at fair market value.
On September 30, 2025, the Company’s C-2 Note was converted into 2.9 million Series C Preferred Units. The Series C Preferred Units issued as a result of this transaction were recognized at fair market value.
Series C-1 Preferred Units
During 2024, the Company completed a financing round of Series C-1 Preferred Units which resulted in the receipt of gross cash proceeds of approximately $626.5 million from various investors. As a result of this financing round, the Company issued 99.7 million Series C-1 Preferred Units. The Series C-1 Preferred Units issued through these transactions were recorded at fair value.
In connection with the issuance of the Series C-1 Preferred Units, one investor and potential future customer was issued a warrant on Series C-1 Preferred Units (the “2024 Warrant”) for no additional consideration. The 2024 Warrant was required to be classified as a liability and measured at fair value on an ongoing basis pursuant to ASC 480 since the underlying Series C-1 Preferred Units are redeemable for cash upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside of the Company’s control. The 2024 Warrant could be exercised by the holder at any time from the issuance date until the 18-month anniversary of the issuance date and entitled the holder to purchase up to 40.2 million Series C-1 Preferred Units at an exercise price of approximately $7.46 per unit. As the 2024 Warrant was issued for no additional consideration and did not meet the criteria for capitalization of a contract asset, the issuance date fair value of the 2024 Warrant of $55.3 million was expensed upon its issuance. Additionally, in March 2026, the Company amended the 2024 Warrant to permit the holder to elect a cashless exercise of the 2024 Warrant at an earlier date than provided by the 2024 Warrant’s original terms. The warrant holder exercised the warrant on March 18, 2026 and received 19.6 million Series C-1 Preferred Units, which were recorded at fair value. The Company recognized a mark-to-market loss of $101.8 million in Other income (expense), net during thethree months ended March 31, 2026, as a result of remeasuring the warrant liability to fair value prior to exercise.
On January 24, 2025, the Company completed additional financing rounds of Series C-1 Preferred Units, issuing 8.2 million Series C-1 Preferred Units and receiving gross cash proceeds of approximately $53.4 million from various investors. On October 3, 2025, the Company issued a warrant to a related party customer to purchase up to 14.1 million Series C-1 Preferred Units at an exercise price of $6.4870 per unit (the “2025 Warrant”). See Note 14—Related Party Transactions for details of the 2025 Warrant.
The Series C-1 Preferred Units issued through these transactions were recorded at fair value.
Series D Preferred Units
On November 21, 2025, the Company completed a financing round of Series D Preferred Units, issuing 48.2 million Series D Preferred Units and receiving gross cash proceeds of approximately $700.0 million. The Series D Preferred Units issued through these transactions were recorded at fair market value.
Preferred Units
Together, the Series A Preferred Units, the Series A-1 Preferred Units, the Series B Preferred Units, the Series C Preferred Units, the Series C-1 Preferred Units, and the Series D Preferred Units shall be referred to as the “Preferred Units” for the purpose of this Note. Preferred Units have been issued in one or more series, each of such series consisting of such number of units and to have such terms, rights, powers and preferences, and the qualifications and limitation with respect thereto, as stated or expressed in the original or amended Certificate of Incorporation. Specifics regarding the conversion features and voting rights associated with, and the balance sheet classification of, the Preferred Units outstanding are as follows:
Optional Conversion Feature
Each Preferred Unit is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into an equal number of Class A Common Units as is determined by dividing the Original Issue Price, for the series of preferred units by the conversion price, initially equal to the applicable original issue price per unit, of such series of Preferred Units in effect at the time of conversion. Conversion may be effected at any time at the sole discretion of the holder. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding Preferred Units are therefore convertible into the following quantities of Class A Common Units (in thousands, except prices):
| Original Issue Price | March 31, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Series A Preferred Units | $0.5754 | 90,626 | 90,626 |
| Series A-1 Preferred Units | 7.6348 | 8,808 | 8,808 |
| Series B Preferred Units | 9.1162 | 11,643 | 11,643 |
| Series C Preferred Units | 7.6348 | 39,964 | 39,964 |
| Series C-1 Preferred Units | 6.4870 | 127,484 | 107,908 |
| Series D Preferred Units | 14.5364 | 48,155 | 48,155 |
Automatic Conversion Feature
In the event of (i) a Qualified IPO, with the exception of the Series D Preferred Units as discussed below, or (ii) the approval of the requisite holders, the Preferred Units will automatically be converted into an equal number of Class A Common Units at the applicable conversion ratio.
For Series D Preferred Units specifically, if the Company undertakes a Qualified IPO, the conversion price of the Series D Preferred Units will be adjusted, if necessary, to be equal to the lesser of: (a) seventy-five percent (75%) of the price per Class A Common Unit, or the price per the equivalent common share of (i) the Company’s corporate successor following a conversion of the Company to a C corporation or (ii) the Company’s newly formed corporation member, in either scenario offered to the public in such Qualified IPO; or (b) the then-current conversion price of the Series D Preferred Units prior to such adjustment.
Voting Rights
Each of the holders of Class A Common Units, Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units, Series C Preferred Units, Series C-1 Preferred Units, and Series D Preferred Units are entitled to vote for members of the Board of Directors in whatever manner necessary to ensure that the size of the Board of Directors of the Company is set and remains at nine directors who serve as the managers of the Company. The Series A-1 Preferred Units and Class B Common Units do not vote on the Board of Directors.
Cumulative Preferred Return
The Preferred Units have an annual 3% cumulative preferred return on the original issuance price, beginning on the date such Preferred Units were issued. As of March 31, 2026, the accumulated preferred return not reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for Series A, A-1, B, C, C-1, and D Preferred Units was$7.3 million,$4.7 million,$14.9 million,$16.4 million,$29.7 million, and$7.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the accumulated preferred return not reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for Series A, A-1, B, C, C-1, and D Preferred Units was$7.0 million,$4.2 million,$14.1 million,$14.2 million,$24.4 million, and$2.3 million, respectively. In the event of a deemed liquidation, the cumulative preferred return is payable solely for the Series B Preferred Units and therefore has been incorporated into the Series B Preferred Units liquidation preference amount presented on the balance sheet. The cumulative preferred return on the remaining units is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Liquidation Preference
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, or a deemed liquidation event, including a merger or consolidation, or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, the holders shall receive distributions in an amount up to their liquidation preference. See the condensed consolidated balance sheet for the liquidation preference amounts. The preference of distributions is first to both Series D Preferred Unit and Series C-1 Preferred Unit holders pari passu, second to Series C Preferred Unit holders, third to Series B Preferred Units holders, fourth to Series A and Series A-1 Preferred Units holders, and fifth to Class B-1 Profits Interest Units, until members have received cumulative distributions equal to approximately $9.5 million. After the payment of the full liquidation preference of the redeemable convertible preferred stock and profits interests, the Company’s remaining assets legally available for distribution, if any, would be distributed ratably to the holders of Class A and Class B Common Units.
Classification
A redeemable equity security is to be classified as temporary or mezzanine equity if it is conditionally redeemable upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer.
The Preferred Units and Common Units are redeemable for cash upon the occurrence of a deemed liquidation event. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, a deemed liquidation event is not considered probable, and the occurrence of such an event is considered to be outside of the Company’s control. Accordingly, the Preferred Units and Common Units are considered conditionally redeemable upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer and, therefore, the Company has classified the Preferred Units and Common Units as mezzanine equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The mezzanine equity amount related to Common Units issued as unit-based compensation is the grant date redemption value, or the modification date redemption value, as applicable. The difference between the grant date fair value and the redemption value for vested awards is presented in permanent equity. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025,$75.1 million and$74.9 million, respectively, has been presented within mezzanine equity, and the excess of grant date redemption value over grant date fair value for vested awards has been recorded within Additional paid in capital and Accumulated deficit for those periods, respectively.
NOTE 12 — UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, unit-based compensation expense related to Class B-1 and Class B-2 Profits Interest Units (“PIUs”) of$2.8 million was classified as Selling, general, and administrative expense,$1.4 million was classified as Direct costs, and$0.3 million was capitalized into Property and equipment as part of the Company’s construction projects. The total fair value of units that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was$4.5 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had$27.8 million of unrecognized unit-based compensation that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, unit-based compensation expense and the total fair value of PIUs that vested were both immaterial. See Note 18 —Subsequent Events for information regarding equity awards granted in connection with the IPO in April 2026.
NOTE 13 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The liabilities recorded at fair value and measured on a recurring basis are all Level 3 measurements as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Rollforward of Level 3 Measurements
A roll forward of the Level 3 measurements is as follows (in thousands):
| June 2022 Warrants | 2024 Warrants | |
|---|---|---|
| Beginning balance as of January 1, 2026 | $10,776 | $263,390 |
| Exercises/Settlements | — | (365,166) |
| Change in fair value recognized in Other income (expense), net | 7,123 | 101,776 |
| Ending balance as of March 31, 2026 | $17,899 | $— |
| June 2022 Warrants | December 2022 Warrants | C-2 Notes | 2024 Warrants | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beginning balance as of January 1, 2025 | $3,636 | $1,394 | $18,537 | $45,604 |
| Change in fair value recognized in Other income (expense), net | (543) | (62) | 387 | (10,363) |

| Ending balance as of March 31, 2025 | $3,093 | $1,332 | $18,771 | $35,241 |
(1)
As the fair value option was elected for the C-2 Notes, the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk associated with each instrument is recorded within Other comprehensive income (loss), and the remaining change in fair value is recorded within Other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The change in instrument specific credit risk is estimated based on the option adjusted spread of comparable companies and the option adjusted spread of the U.S. high yield index for companies with similar credit ratings.
Valuation Techniques and Significant Unobservable Inputs
A significant increase or decrease in any of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the warrant liabilities or C-2 Notes could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The quantitative inputs and assumptions used for items categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized below:
2024 Warrants
The fair value of the 2024 Warrants is based on an option pricing method of allocation. The 2024 Warrants were exercised on March 18, 2026. The significant inputs, including significant unobservable inputs, used in the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of the 2024 Warrants are as follows:
| Significant Inputs | March 18, 2026 | March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Expected term (years) | N/A | 1.0 |
| Equity volatility | 90.0% | 57.0% |
| Risk-free rate | 3.7% | 4.0% |
June 2022 Warrants
In conjunction with a guarantee to the Bank of New York Credit Facility, the Company issued $10.0 million of warrants (the “June 2022 Warrants”) to Ghaffarian Enterprises, a related party, on June 30, 2022. The fair value of the June 2022 Warrants is based on an option pricing method of allocation. The significant inputs, including significant unobservable inputs, used in the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of the June 2022 Warrants are as follows:
| Significant Inputs | March 31, 2026 | March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Expected term (years) | 1.9 | 2.9 |
| Equity volatility | 90.0% | 57.0% |
| Risk-free rate | 3.8% | 3.8% |
December 2022 Warrants
On December 5, 2022, the Company issued 444,444 warrants (the “December 2022 Warrants”) to purchase common units of the Company. The December 2022 Warrants had an exercise price of $0.01 per unit, were not exercisable until 36 months following the issuance of the C-2 Notes, subject to the achievement of certain business requirements, and were liability classified. As of December 31, 2025, the December 2022 Warrants expired as business requirements of the holder were not met.
The fair value was determined based on an option pricing method of allocation using the contractual strike price per the warrant agreement, and an estimate of the per unit value of the warrants. The significant inputs, including significant unobservable inputs, used in the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of the December 2022 Warrants were as follows:
| Significant Inputs | March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|
| Expected term (years) | 2.9 |
| Equity volatility | 57.0% |
| Discount for lack of marketability | 27.0% |
| Risk-free rate | 3.8% |
C-2 Notes
As of December 31, 2025, all C-2 Notes had converted into Series C Preferred Units. Refer to Note 7—Debt for further information.
The fair value of the C-2 Notes was based on the binomial lattice model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The significant inputs, including significant unobservable inputs, used in the recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of the C-2 Notes were as follows:
| Significant Inputs | March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|
| Discount rate | 13.2% |
| Credit spread | 9.0% |
| Equity volatility | 57.0% |
| Risk-free rate | 4.2% |

NOTE 14 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into transactions with various related parties.
Related Party Warrants
On October 3, 2025, agreements with a related party customer were modified through the issuance of the 2025 Warrant and the Company accounted for such modification in accordance with ASC 606. The 2025 Warrant may be exercised by the holder when all of the Xe-100 units associated with the customer agreements are considered fully operational (the “Vesting Event”) and entitles the holderto purchase up to 14.1 million Series C-1 Preferred Units at an exercise price of $6.4870 per unit. The exercise period ends at the earlier of (i)one year from the Vesting Event, (ii) event of non-compliance and (iii) a consummation of a change of control or a listing event of the Company, to the extent it occurs after vesting. The Vesting Event is considered a performance condition in accordance with ASC 718, as the Vesting Event is a performance target defined solely by reference to the Company’s own operations. As the 2025 Warrant was issued to a customer and not in exchange for a distinct good or service that the customer transfers to the Company, the Company accounts for the 2025 Warrant as consideration payable to a customer under ASC 606, and will recognize the Warrant as a decrease to the transaction price, measured based on the grant date fair value when the performance condition is deemed probable. The grant date fair value was determined to be $162.7 million.
Moreover, the Company determined that the 2025 Warrant will be classified as an equity award based on the criteria of ASC 480 and ASC 718. When the performance condition is deemed probable, the Company will recognize the 2025 Warrant as a temporary equity classified instrument on the condensed consolidated balance sheet measured based on its grant date redemption value. Upon the performance condition becoming probable of occurring, any difference between the 2025 Warrant’s grant date fair value and its grant date redemption value shall be presented in permanent equity.
As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the 2025 Warrant was not deemed probable of vesting, and thus, the Company did not recognize any amount related to the 2025 Warrant. The Company will assess whether it is probable that the 2025 Warrant will vest at the end of every reporting period.
In connection with the issuance of the Series C-1 Preferred Units, one investor and potential future customer was issued the 2024 Warrant for no additional consideration. The 2024 Warrant was required to be classified as a liability and measured at fair value on an ongoing basis pursuant to ASC 480 since the underlying Series C-1 Preferred Units are redeemable for cash upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside of the Company’s control. The 2024 Warrant could be exercised by the holder at any time from the issuance date until the 18-month anniversary of the issuance date and entitled the holder to purchase up to 40.2 million Series C-1 Preferred Units at an exercise price of approximately $7.46 per unit. As the 2024 Warrant was issued for no additional consideration, and did not meet the criteria for capitalization of a contract asset, the issuance date fair value of the 2024 Warrant of $55.3 million was expensed upon its issuance. Additionally, in March 2026, the Company amended the 2024 Warrant to permit the holder to elect a cashless exercise of the 2024 Warrant at an earlier date than provided by the 2024 Warrant’s original terms. The warrant holder exercised the 2024 Warrant on March 18, 2026 and received 19.6 million Series C-1 Preferred Units.

NOTE 17 — SEGMENTS
Under the guidelines of ASC 280, which require companies to present financial information about their operating segments, products and services, geographic regions, and significant customers, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM evaluates financial performance, allocates resources, and makes strategic decisions based on the consolidated results of the Company, rather than evaluating discrete lines of business. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company comprises a single reportable segment.
In making resource allocation decisions and assessing operational outcomes, the CODM relies on overall net income (loss) as the primary metric both, during the annual planning process and for evaluating results on a quarterly basis. The primary expenses presented to the CODM and incorporated in segment performance are related to operating expenses and non-operating expenses. Operating expenses consist of Direct costs; Selling, general and administrative costs; and Research and development costs. Non-operating expenses consist of Interest expense, Interest income, and Other income (expense). The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 present these significant segment expenses for the Company’s single operating segment. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 likewise display the assets and liabilities attributable to this single segment.
NOTE 18 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has evaluated subsequent events to determine if any require recognition or disclosure.
IPO and Reorganization Transactions
On April 27, 2026, X-Energy, Inc., the holding company and sole manager of the Company, successfully closed an IPO in which X-Energy, Inc. issued and sold 50,892,857 shares of its Class A common stock for net proceeds aggregating approximately $1.1 billion, net of underwriting discounts of $67.3 million that were incurred by the Company.
In connection with such IPO, the Company and X-Energy Inc. completed a series of organizational transactions (collectively, the “Reorganization Transactions”), which are described below:
XERC amended and restated its existing limited liability company agreement to, among other things, (i) effect a recapitalization in which all existing ownership interests in XERC were converted into one class of Common Units and (ii) appoint X-Energy, Inc. as the sole managing member of XERC.
X-Energy, Inc. amended and restated its certificate of formation to, among other things, authorize Class A and Class B common stock, with each share of either class entitling its holder to one vote per share on all matters presented to stockholders.
X-Energy, Inc. acquired Common Units of XERC held by the Blocker Companies (as defined below) pursuant to the Blocker Mergers (as defined below), in which the Blocker Companies merged with and into X-Energy, Inc., with X-Energy, Inc. as the surviving entity. Pursuant to such mergers, shareholders of the Blocker Companies received shares of Class A common stock as consideration. Blocker Companies are entities that were owners of Common Units in XERC prior to the Reorganization Transactions and are taxable as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Meanwhile, the Blocker Mergers represents the merger of each of the Blocker Companies with X-Energy, Inc. as part of the Reorganization Transactions, pursuant to which the shareholders of the Blocker Companies, which represents the owners of the Blocker Companies prior to the Reorganization Transactions, who exchanged their interests in the Blocker Companies for shares of our Class A common stock in connection with the consummation of the Blocker Mergers, receive shares of Class A common stock as consideration for the applicable Blocker Merger.
X-Energy, Inc. acquired (i) all of the Common Units of XERC held by the former equity owners (“Former Equity Owners”), which refers to those Original Equity Owners other than the Blocker Companies and the Continuing Equity Owners except for X-Energy Management LLC (“Management LLC”), who is addressed below, and (ii) a portion of the Common Units held by the Continuing Equity Owners, in each case in exchange for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock. Continuing Equity Owners collectively refer to those Original Equity Owners (which refers to the direct and certain indirect owners of XERC, including ACIP Investments Pooling LLC — Series 31, Ares X-Energy Co-Invest LP, Ares X-Energy Holdings LP, GM Enterprises, LLC, IBX Opportunity GP, Inc, X-Energy Holdings, LLC, Jane Street Global Trading, LLC and certain of their affiliates, but excluding Management LLC) that will own Common Units in XERC and our Class B common stock after the Reorganization Transactions and who may, following the consummation of our initial public offering, redeem their Common Units for shares of X-Energy, Inc.’s Class A common stock or cash, at X-Energy, Inc.’s election.
Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, amended and restated its limited liability company agreement to, among other things, effect a recapitalization in which all existing ownership interests in Management LLC were converted into one class of Common Units. Subsequently, Management LLC contributed all of its Common Units of XERC to X-Energy, Inc. in exchange for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, which shares remain subject to the same vesting conditions applicable to the corresponding Common Units immediately prior to such contribution.
X-Energy, Inc. issued to the Continuing Equity Owners shares of Class B common stock equal to the number of Common Units of XERC held by the Continuing Equity Owners in exchange for nominal consideration from the Continuing Equity Owners, resulting in a combined company organized in an umbrella partnership-C corporation (“Up-C”) structure, in which substantially all of the assets and the business of the company are held by XERC.
Following the Reorganization Transactions and IPO, X-Energy, Inc. is a public holding company and its principal asset is a controlling equity interest in XERC. As the sole managing member of XERC, X-Energy, Inc. will operate and control all of the business and affairs of XERC and its subsidiaries. As a result, X-Energy, Inc. will consolidate XERC’s financial results and report a non-controlling interest related to the Common Units of XERC not owned by X-Energy, Inc.
The Reorganization Transactions are considered transactions between entities under common control. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the IPO and the Reorganization Transactions are the condensed consolidated financial statements of XERC as the predecessor to X-Energy, Inc. for accounting and reporting purposes.
Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”)
In connection with the IPO and related transactions, X-Energy, Inc. entered into a TRA with XERC and certain equity owners of XERC prior to the IPO (“TRA Holders”) that will provide for the payment by X-Energy, Inc. to the TRA Holders of 85% of the amount of cash tax savings, if any, that X-Energy, Inc. is deemed to realize (calculated using certain assumptions) as a result of certain tax basis adjustments.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the IPO, X-Energy, Inc. entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with certain holders of Common Units of XERC who received shares of Class A common stock or who hold rights to exchange Common Units for Class A common stock. The agreement provides these holders and certain of their affiliates with demand and piggyback registration rights, allowing them to require X-Energy, Inc. to register their shares for public sale under certain circumstances. X-Energy, Inc. will bear the registration expenses associated with these registrations.
IPO Equity Awards
In connection with the X-Energy, Inc. initial public offering, X-Energy, Inc. adopted the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan (“2026 Plan”), in order to facilitate the grant of cash and equity incentives to directors, employees (including our named executive officers) and consultants of the Company and employees and consultants or certain of our affiliates and to enable X-Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries and certain of its affiliates to obtain and retain services of these individuals, which is essential to its long-term success.
X-Energy, Inc.’s board of directors approved the conversion of existing PIUs that ultimately entitled them to restricted stock awards subject to the same provisions with respect to vesting, forfeiture, and transfer restrictions as the existing PIUs and the additional grant of stock options pursuant to the 2026 Plan to certain employees, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Chief of Global Operations, and non-employee directors, which grants became effective in connection with the consummation of the offering (“IPO Equity Awards”). The IPO Equity Awards were granted only to current employees and non-employee directors who previously held PIUs.
The IPO Equity Awards granted to the named executive officers were comprised of stock options that cover approximately 3.5 million shares of X-Energy, Inc.’s Common Stock, respectively based on the initial public offering price of $23.00 per share of Class A common stock. In addition, certain of X-Energy, Inc.’s directors who previously held PIUs received stock options, which cover an aggregate of approximately 0.1 million shares of Common Stock based on the initial public offering price of $23.00 per share of Class A common stock.
Each stock option granted to named executive officers and directors will vest and become exercisable in substantially equal annual installments pursuant to the same vesting schedule as the grantee’s PIUs.
The IPO Equity Awards granted to non-employee directors were composed of restricted stock awards with an aggregate grant date value of $0.9 million.
