ROCKVILLE, Md., November 12, 2026 — X-Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: XE) (“X-energy” or the “Company”), a leading developer of advanced nuclear reactors and fuel technology, today announced third quarter 2026 financial results and operational highlights.

“Our third quarter results and recent project developments reflect meaningful progress in executing our strategy and advancing our technology toward commercial deployment. We are building momentum as we deepen relationships with leading energy and industrial companies and advance opportunities across our pipeline,” said J. Clay Sell, CEO of X-energy. “The NRC recently issued the construction permit for Dow’s Long Mott project in Texas and it was received over a month ahead of schedule. This marks the first construction permit issued by the NRC in the United States for an advanced nuclear project site designed to provide industrial process heat.”

“Furthermore, we are excited to collaborate with AEP, a major investor-owned utility with extensive experience and expertise developing and operating critical energy infrastructure. This project in Indiana represents our second announced commercial deployment opportunity supported by Amazon and gives us greater visibility into our path toward deployment. During the quarter, we also completed the vertical construction of our TX-1 fuel fabrication facility, and the next phase includes interior buildout and equipment installation. In addition, the acceptance of our Xe-100 reactor into the United Kingdom’s Generic Design Assessment process represents an important step toward advancing our opportunity in the U.K. with Centrica.”

“We are in a differentiated position of strength, supported by our strong balance sheet and significant funding. Our regulatory progress marks a major milestone for our technology, while our growing commercial momentum bolsters our pipeline of reactors and demand for TRISO-X fuel,” concluded Sell.

Operational Highlights

NRC Issues Construction Permit for Dow’s Long Mott Project: Dow and X-energy announced that the NRC has approved the Construction Permit Application (“CPA”) for the proposed Long Mott Generating Station in Seadrift, Texas ahead of schedule. The permit marks an important milestone in the regulatory review process for

the proposed advanced nuclear project, which is being developed under the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (“ARDP”). The project is intended to provide zero-carbon emissions electricity and high-temperature steam to Dow's Seadrift Operations site, replacing existing energy and steam assets near their end-of-life. The NRC's approval follows a comprehensive review of the proposed facility, site characteristics, construction plans, environmental considerations and safety-related information submitted as part of the CPA process. Issuance marks the first NRC CPA approval of a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (“HTGR”) in nearly 60 years, the first-ever pebble-bed HTGR approval and the first-ever for an advanced nuclear industrial deployment.

Selects Fluor for Design and Engineering Services: For Energy Northwest’s Cascade Advanced Energy Facility near Richland, Washington, Fluor will provide engineering, design development, supply chain, estimating and project controls services for the areas of the plant containing the Xe-100 reactors and the systems that support them (the "nuclear island"). The agreement between X-energy and Fluor represents their second commercial contract for nuclear island engineering and design, building on Fluor's ongoing work for the Company’s first proposed Xe-100 project in Texas under the ARDP. This enables X-energy and Fluor to incorporate learnings from one project into the next, with the aim of targeting long-term cost and schedule reductions through standardization and highly repeatable project execution.

Executes First Order for Steam Generator Components: Announced the first procurement order of steam generator tubing from Alleima and Doosan Enerbility for the Company’s Xe-100 advanced SMR. This follows the signing of a strategic framework by the three companies earlier this year as the Company scales its supply chain to meet its growing commercial pipeline. Execution advances a safety-significant, long-lead component for the first deployment of the Xe-100. Alleima will leverage its expertise in high-temperature alloys to manufacture specialized steel tubing, which Doosan will bend into helical coils using its proprietary fabrication processes. These coils are a central component of the Xe-100 steam generator, safely removing heat to produce high-temperature steam at up to 565°C, and allowing a single Xe-100 to deliver both electricity and high-temperature process heat for industrial applications.

Partners with AEP and Amazon: Announced a JDA with AEP to advance feasibility work for a proposed 960 MW Xe-100 SMR project in Indiana. Amazon will provide certain project development funding for the effort, marking the second commercial deployment opportunity under X-energy and Amazon’s collaboration aimed to bring more than 5 GW of new nuclear capacity to the U.S. grid by 2039. X-energy and AEP will evaluate the development of a 12-unit Xe-100 plant in Sullivan County, Indiana. The proposed project would redevelop the AEP-owned brownfield site for advanced nuclear power, adding clean baseload capacity to help meet growing demand for safe, reliable energy.

U.K. Regulators Begin Design Review for Xe-100: The U.K. Government has directed regulators to accept the Xe-100 reactor for design review and advance X-energy’s and Centrica’s efforts to deploy up to 6 GW of new nuclear in the U.K. GDA acceptance formally triggers the process of assessing the design's acceptability for deployment and operation ahead of the technical and environmental evaluations required for site-specific licensing and permitting. The assessment is expected to take approximately three years and will be administered by the U.K. Office for Nuclear Regulation, the Environment Agency, and Natural Resources Wales. The submission builds on the Xe-100's U.S. licensing progress and is expected to benefit from expanded collaboration between the U.K. regulators and the U.S. NRC, enabling transfer of NRC-reviewed design documentation and safety analyses into U.K. design reviews.

TX-1 Vertical Construction Complete, Advances to Next Phase: Vertical construction for the shell of the Company's TX-1 fuel facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee was completed on schedule in the third quarter. The project has advanced into its next phase of construction, which will include interior buildout, installation of fuel fabrication equipment and continued construction of supporting facilities. Once operational, TX-1 is expected to produce approximately 700,000 TRISO-X fuel pebbles annually, equivalent to 5 metric tons of uranium (“MTU”), with capacity to provide fuel for up to 11 Xe-100 reactors. The U.S. NRC granted TRISO-X a 40-year Special Nuclear Material License covering the facility earlier this year, the first-ever NRC Category 2 fuel fabrication license issued for the processing of high-assay low-enriched uranium. TX-1 is expected to be the first new commercial-scale advanced U.S. nuclear fuel fabrication facility built in more than 50 years.

Total revenues and grant income in the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $66.3 million, including $51.5 million of services revenue and $14.8 million of grant income. Total revenues and grant income in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $164.4 million, including $141.6 million of services revenue and $22.8 million of grant income. Total revenues and grant income increased 118% and 126% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the comparable prior-year period. This was primarily due to increases of $29.3 million and $85.0 million in revenue and grant income from the ARDP Agreement with the DOE for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. This was driven by an increase in project execution activities under the ARDP Agreement as the Company continued to advance the development and finalization of the Xe-100 reactor design. The increase reflected higher spending on materials, subcontractor services, and compensation costs to support the expanded scope of work.

Total operating expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $169.9 million, including $93.6 million of Direct costs. Total operating expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $444.1 million, including $245.6 million of Direct costs. Total operating expenses increased 139% and 143% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the comparable prior-year periods. This was primarily due to increases of $54.7 million and $141.9 million in Direct costs and increases of $43.9 million and $120.4 million in Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, compared to the comparable prior-year periods.

The increase in Direct costs was primarily driven by expanded activity under the ARDP Agreement. Subcontracting costs increased by $23.5 million and $52.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. Direct materials costs increased $15.6 million and $33.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. Additionally, compensation costs increased by $15.3 million and $53.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, including $10.9 million and $42.0 million from higher employee headcount to support the expanded activity under the ARDP Agreement, and $4.4 million and $11.0 million from increased non-cash equity-based and unit-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 due to equity grants to certain former holders of Profits Interest Units (“PIUs”) in connection with the Company’s IPO in April.

The increase in Selling, general, and administrative expenses was driven by an increase in non-cash equity-based and unit-based compensation expense of $18.4 million and $49.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, due to the equity grant to certain PIU holders discussed above. Compensation costs increased a further $9.0 million and $29.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, primarily due to higher employee headcount. Additionally, infrastructure and professional service costs increased by $8.0 million and $23.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased a further $8.5 million and $12.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, from contractor costs related to corporate projects, including design costs for TX-2.

Net cash used in operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $215.8 million of net cash compared to $92.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily driven by increases in activity on the ARDP Agreement, deposits to vendors for long-lead materials, and corporate headcount and corporate contractors during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $289.5 million of net cash compared to $41.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in net cash used in investing

activities was attributable to investments in held-to-maturity securities and capital expenditures. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we purchased investments of $425.3 million, which were offset by proceeds from investment maturities of $233.9 million. There was no investment activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the corresponding prior year period, we had a $98.8 million increase in capital expenditures related to the construction of facilities, which was offset by a $42.5 million increase in reimbursements received for the capital expenditures qualifying under government grant programs.

Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $1.1 billion of net cash compared to $50.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to $1.1 billion of net proceeds from X-energy’s initial public offering. The net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to the January 2025 issuance of Series C-1 preferred units of $53.4 million, offset by $2.5 million of cash paid for associated issuance costs.

X-ENERGY, INC.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

Non-GAAP fully diluted share count is defined as the weighted average of Class A common stock outstanding for the period reported if (i) all of the holders of X-Energy Reactor Company, LLC (“XERC”) Common Units redeemed their XERC Common Units for shares of X-energy’s Class A common stock on a 1:1 basis (and effected the cancellation of their Class B common stock of which they hold an equal number to the number of XERC Common Units they hold), (ii) all of X-energy’s outstanding options (whether or not vested and whether or not in-the-money) that remain outstanding were exercised for shares of Class A common stock and (iii) all of X-energy’s outstanding restricted stock awards and restricted stock units had vested. Adjusted net loss represents Net Loss attributable to X-Energy, Inc. under GAAP adjusted by (i) including net loss attributable to XERC prior to the IPO, (ii) including net loss attributable to non-controlling interests subsequent to the IPO, (iii) excluding equity-based and unit-based compensation, (iv) excluding mark-to-market losses on C-2 Notes, (v) excluding loss on conversion of C-2 Notes and the related reclassification of OCI, and (vi) excluding mark-to-market loss on warrant liabilities. Adjusted Net Loss per Share, diluted is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Loss by the fully diluted share count.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to, among other things, facilitate period-over-period comparability. Management believes they provide investors with useful supplemental information. Non-GAAP fully diluted share count helps investors assess the potential impact on the Company's capital structure of outstanding XERC Common Units redeemable for Class A common stock (with an equal number of Class B common stock cancelled) and equity awards, while Adjusted net loss and Adjusted net loss per share, diluted facilitate period-to-period comparisons by excluding the effects of certain non-cash items that may obscure underlying operating trends. Including net loss attributable to non-controlling interests enables investors to evaluate the operating results of the Company’s consolidated business without regard to its ownership structure.

__________

Holders of shares of Class B common stock hold an equal number of XERC Common Units (as defined in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2026). XERC Common Units can be redeemed for shares of Class A common stock or, at the Company's election in certain circumstances, cash. At the time of redemption of XERC Common Units for shares of Class A common stock, an equivalent number of shares of Class B common stock are cancelled.

The Company currently has a warrant outstanding that is exercisable for 14.1 million shares contingent upon future events or performance conditions. This warrant is not currently included in the fully diluted share count as it was not deemed probable of vesting as of September 30,

2026.

Net loss per share, diluted is calculated by dividing the Net loss attributable to X-Energy, Inc. by the Weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, basic and diluted.

Adjusted net loss per share, diluted is calculated by dividing Adjusted net loss by the fully diluted share count.

Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) adjusts Net loss attributable to X-Energy, Inc. by (i) including net loss attributable to XERC prior to the IPO, (ii) including net loss attributable to non-controlling interests subsequent to the IPO, and then adjusting, when applicable, for (iii) interest expense, (iv) interest income, and (v) depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is used by management to understand underlying operating performance and assist in period over period comparability by excluding the effects of financing decisions, income taxes, and non-cash depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly between companies due to differences in capital structure, tax positions and asset bases. We believe EBITDA allows investors insight into the Company’s core operating performance and facilitates comparisons across reporting periods.

Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA excluding (i) equity-based and unit-based compensation, (ii) mark-to-market loss on C-2 Notes, (iii) loss on conversion of C-2 Notes and the related reclassification of OCI, and (iv) mark-to-market loss on warrant liabilities. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to understand underlying operating performance and assist in period over period comparability. Management believes these adjustments exclude variables unrelated to the Company’s core operations and allow for meaningful comparisons between the Company’s operating results from period to period.
