&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fourth Quarter 2022 Results 2 BUSINESS UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS • Secured Romania's RoPower as NuScale's first international committed customer and commenced the first phase of Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) work for in-depth project and site planning. This success builds on NuScale's continued momentum with its first committed customer, the Carbon Free Power Project (CFPP) in the U.S. • Progressed NuScale's commercial design readiness with completion of Standard Plant Design and submission of second Standard Design Approval application to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission for the VOYGR™-6 SMR power plant. The uprate to a 77 MWe module will support the capacity needs for a wider range of customers. • Advanced manufacturing and supply chain preparedness through new agreements with Framatome to design fuel handling equipment and fuel storage racks for VOYGR SMR power plants and with Doosan Enerbility in placing a long-lead material production order for the upper reactor pressure vessels including heavy forgings, steam generator tubes, and weld material. • Furthered efforts to power the global energy transition through key partnerships. NuScale joined a research collaboration with Shell Global Solutions and others to assess the use of a NuScale VOYGR SMR power plant in supporting clean hydrogen production; also joined the United Nations 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy Compact. • Identified strategic priorities for 2023 that will support the continued growth of NuScale's business and readiness for delivery of the first NuScale Power Module™ in 2028. FINANCIAL UPDATE Strong balance sheet with cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $267.7 million, and no debt. Revenue of $3.4 million and net loss of $47.2 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, compared to revenue of $1.5 million and a net loss of $28 million for the same period in 2021. Revenue of $11.8 million and a net loss of $141.6 million for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022, compared to revenue of $2.9 million and a net loss of $102.5 million for the same period in 2021. Fully diluted share count of 259.2 million shares as of December 31, 2022, is comprised of 69.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, 157.1 million shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exchange of NuScale LLC Class B Units, 30.7 million shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, and 2.1 million time-based awards that vest between one and three years. Expected higher cash usage in 2023 than previously anticipated, with contributing factors including: below anticipated fiscal year 2023 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) cost share appropriations that the company is seeking to recoup in fiscal year 2024, the delay of customer progress payments while maintaining delivery schedule, and an increase in R&D expense driven by inflation and added workscope to mitigate risk and ensure delivery execution. For 2023, this equates to an anticipated negative operating cash flow range of $102 million to $142 million.
