NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NNE) has successfully closed an $18 million underwritten public offering, selling 900,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 517,500 shares at $20 per share and associated warrant. This follows their May 2024 IPO, which raised $10.25 million at $4.00 per share. As the first publicly listed portable nuclear microreactor company in the U.S., NANO Nuclear plans to use the net proceeds of approximately $16.1 million to advance their proprietary microreactor designs, 'ZEUS' and 'ODIN', develop HALEU fuel transportation and fabrication capabilities, and fund business development activities.

The offering included immediately exercisable five-year warrants with a $20.00 exercise price. The Benchmark Company, acted as the sole book-running representative for the offering. NANO Nuclear aims to accelerate the demonstration of their advanced portable microreactors and potentially generate initial revenues by the end of 2024 through their nuclear consulting services division.

NANO Nuclear Energy announced the pricing of an upsized $18 million underwritten public offering comprising 900,000 shares of common stock and 450,000 warrants at $20.00 per unit. The offer grants the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase an additional 135,000 shares and 67,500 warrants. The funds will support the development of micro nuclear reactors ‘ZEUS’ and ‘ODIN’, HALEU fuel transport, and business development.

The warrants are immediately exercisable, have a five-year term, and an exercise price of $20.00 per share. However, they will not trade on any market. The Benchmark Company is the sole book-running manager, and the offering is expected to close around July 15, 2024.

NANO Nuclear Energy has announced the pricing of an upsized $18 million underwritten public offering.

Gross proceeds are expected to be around $18 million, before underwriting discounts and offering expenses. The offering also includes a 30-day option for the underwriter to purchase an additional 135,000 shares and/or associated warrants. The warrants are exercisable immediately, have a five-year term, and an exercise price of $20.00 per share. The net proceeds will fund the development of proprietary micro nuclear reactors 'ZEUS' and 'ODIN', HALEU fuel transportation technology, a domestic HALEU fuel fabrication source, and general corporate purposes. The offering is planned to close around July 15, 2024, subject to customary conditions.

NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) and Curio Solutions have signed an MOU to enhance nuclear fuel recycling for NANO's portable microreactors using Curio's NuCycle technology. This collaboration aims to optimize the fuel designs of NANO Nuclear's 'ZEUS' and 'ODIN' microreactors over the next year, incorporating advanced recycling methods to create a sustainable nuclear fuel cycle. Curio's NuCycle process, funded by the U.S. government, promises to significantly reduce nuclear waste. NANO Nuclear’s 'ZEUS' microreactor generates 1-2 megawatts of clean electricity, while the 'ODIN' benefits from the recently acquired ALIP technology for improved safety. The partnership could lead to more formal agreements if successful. Both companies are committed to advancing nuclear energy technology and sustainability.

The ADVANCE Act of 2023, aimed at accelerating advanced nuclear technology deployment, has been passed by the U.S. Senate and House and awaits President Biden's approval. NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) praises this bipartisan effort, highlighting its alignment with their mission to develop portable micro nuclear reactors. The Act provides funding, reduces regulatory costs, and supports domestic uranium enrichment, important for advanced reactors. CEO Jay Yu and Head of Reactor Development James Walker emphasized the Act's importance for innovation and U.S. energy independence.

NANO Nuclear Energy has announced the acquisition of the Annular Linear Induction Pump (ALIP) technology, which will significantly improve the cooling and heat transfer capabilities of its 'ODIN' microreactor. Developed by physicist Dr. Carlos O. Maidana, this technology uses electromagnetic pumps instead of mechanical ones, enhancing efficiency and reliability.

Funded by $1.37 million in DOE grants through the SBIR program, this innovation is slated for Phase III development, with NANO Nuclear investing approximately $350,000. Dr. Maidana will continue to collaborate as a consultant, aiming for commercialization within a year.

This technology offers potential benefits for various advanced nuclear reactor designs and industries, including space exploration and marine propulsion. It promises to streamline reactor designs, reduce maintenance, and improve passive decay heat removal.

The project aligns with NANO Nuclear’s goals of sustainable, efficient energy solutions and could generate near-term revenue while enhancing the company's market position.

Prof. Massimiliano Fratoni, Senior Director and Head of Reactor Design at NANO Nuclear Energy, has been honored with the Untermyer & Cisler Reactor Technology Metals by the American Nuclear Society for his groundbreaking work in advanced reactor development. Fratoni’s achievements include significant contributions to fluoride-cooled pebble-bed reactors and the development of the 'ZEUS' microreactor technology. NANO Nuclear Energy, trading under NASDAQ: NNE, is filing multiple patents for its proprietary microreactor design aimed at various industries, including data centers, crypto mining, and space exploration. The 'ZEUS' reactor, noted for its enhanced safety and transportability, generates 1-2 MW of electricity and operates without fluid coolants, relying on passive safety mechanisms.

NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) has appointed Prof. Massimiliano Fratoni as Senior Director and Head of Reactor Design.

Prof. Fratoni, Chair of UC Berkeley Nuclear Engineering, will lead the development of the 'ZEUS' portable microreactor, designed for diverse applications including data centers, AI, crypto mining, military, disaster relief, and space exploration.

'ZEUS' aims to generate 1-2 megawatts of electric output and be commercially available by 2030.

Prof. Fratoni's expertise in sustainable nuclear energy through advanced reactors and fuel cycles positions NANO Nuclear at the forefront of the industry.
