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 need for and ability to obtain additional equity financing or other sources of funding;

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;

litigation contingencies;

the estimated amounts to be reimbursed to CFPP LLC and costs related to termination of the DCRA and LLM Agreement;

our estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing; and

the potential for our business development efforts to maximize the potential value of our portfolio.

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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Form 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.
