Standard Nuclear, Inc.Backlog jumped to $576.9M after the Antares agreement, with funded backlog rising to $119.3M and $240M pro forma cash after the IPO.

Standard Nuclear reported second-quarter revenue of $4.7 million, up from $0.6 million a year earlier, driven by its first commercial deliveries of TRISO nuclear fuel, and its total backlog reached $576.9 million after an August agreement with Antares Nuclear. The company, which began trading on the New York Stock Exchange in July, shipped a 50-kilogram batch of HALEU TRISO fuel to Radiant Industries and later delivered the remaining fuel for a full commercial reactor core, marking the first complete core from an independent U.S. manufacturer. Backlog at June 30 stood at $241.5 million, with funded backlog of $61.9 million, but after the Antares deal, funded backlog rose to $119.3 million and total backlog to $576.9 million. The company posted a net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.12 per share, despite a 67% gross margin, as public-company and growth expenses increased. Standard Nuclear ended the quarter with $102.2 million in cash and no debt, and its July IPO generated approximately $137.7 million in net proceeds, bringing pro forma cash to about $240 million. Capacity expansion is advancing, with Tennessee and Idaho facilities targeting operating authorization in the fourth quarter of 2026, and a Framatome joint venture in Richland, Washington, expected to begin TRISO production in 2027.
