    NuScale Power (SMR) is back in focus after a flurry of pro nuclear moves from Washington, including Congressional hearings and executive orders aimed at speeding advanced reactor deployment, along with NRC approval of its 77 megawatt small modular reactor design.

    See our latest analysis for NuScale Power.

    Those policy moves and the NRC green light have coincided with a sharp mood shift in the stock, with a 15.14% 1 day share price return and a 31.24% 7 day share price return contrasting with a 50.84% 90 day share price decline. At the same time, the 3 year total shareholder return of 77.17% and 5 year total shareholder return of 79.54% point to long term investors having already experienced a very large swing in value as sentiment around growth prospects and funding risks has shifted over time.

    If you are watching nuclear’s resurgence and wondering what else is moving, this could be a good moment to scan aerospace and defense stocks for other energy and security linked names.

    With NuScale trading at $18.78, sitting on a very large gap to an average analyst target of $35.50 and carrying both strong policy support and clear funding risks, is this genuine mispricing or is the market already pricing in future growth?

    Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 48.7% Undervalued

    At a last close of $18.78 versus a narrative fair value of roughly $36.58, the most followed view frames NuScale as materially mispriced, hinging on aggressive future growth and margin assumptions.

    With an NRC-approved SMR technology and the commitment of over $2 billion towards its development and licensing, NuScale is uniquely positioned for immediate commercial deployment compared to competitors focused solely on demonstration plans. This potentially accelerates revenue growth once commercial operations commence.

    Read the complete narrative.

    Curious what it would take for that valuation gap to close? The narrative leans on rapid revenue expansion, a sharp margin shift, and a rich future earnings multiple. Want to see how those moving parts fit together?

    Result: Fair Value of $36.58 (UNDERVALUED)

    However, this hinges on NuScale lining up long term customer contracts and securing funding on acceptable terms, with any setbacks in these areas quickly challenging the undervalued case.
