NuScale Power Corp (SMR) is not a strong buy for a beginner investor with a long-term horizon at this time. While the company has potential in the small modular reactor space, significant financial risks, insider selling, and bearish technical indicators suggest caution. The lack of strong trading signals and mixed analyst ratings further support a hold recommendation.
The stock's technical indicators are bearish. The MACD is below 0 and negatively contracting, RSI is neutral at 63.821, and moving averages are bearish (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5). Key resistance levels are at 11.733 and 12.469, while support levels are at 9.349 and 8.613. The stock has a 40% chance of declining in the short term, with a potential -5.9% drop in the next week.
NuScale Power is the only small modular reactor company with U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval. SpaceX's interest in small modular reactors for AI and data center infrastructure could create future opportunities.
The company faces significant financial risks, including a net loss of $355.8 million in 2025 and ongoing legal challenges. Insider selling has increased by 17,090.48% over the last month. Analysts have lowered price targets, citing financial and execution risks.
NuScale reported $31.5 million in revenue for 2025 but incurred a significant net loss of $355.8 million, raising concerns about its financial stability. No valuation data or detailed quarterly financials are available.
Analyst sentiment is mixed to negative. Northland and B. Riley maintain positive ratings but have lowered price targets to $19, citing slower-than-expected progress. Citi and Goldman Sachs have reduced price targets to $7 and $9, respectively, with Citi maintaining a Sell rating. HSBC initiated coverage with a Hold rating and a $13 price target, highlighting significant execution and financial risks.
