Key facts: Q3 beats estimates; Idaho Aurora 2028–29; Ohio complex 2030+

What happened

Oklo reported third-quarter revenue of $1.86 million and a net loss of $41.75 million, or $0.22 per share; both results beat estimates. It moved its Idaho Aurora facility’s initial operations target to 2028–2029, citing possible testing and commissioning challenges, while its Ohio complex is not expected to operate before 2030.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

The delayed Idaho target means potential power sales from that facility are further off, while unresolved approvals, costs and financing leave its path uncertain. Oklo’s Ohio project also has a long timeline, so near-term results remain important to funding construction and development.

Analyst inference

The article reports that shares rose about 23% to $23.55 on November 6 after results, despite the project delays. Analyst price targets were mixed: Canaccord and Craig-Hallum cut theirs, while two other firms kept ratings and targets unchanged.

Confirmed

What to watch

1. Watch for updates on Idaho testing, commissioning and approvals; these could clarify whether the 2028–2029 initial operations target is achievable and when the facility might begin producing power. Analyst inference
2. Track whether Oklo provides clearer estimates of project costs and financing, since unresolved funding needs could affect how quickly it can build the Idaho and Ohio facilities. Analyst inference
3. Watch progress on the Ohio complex and its first phase, which the article says is not expected to operate before 2030 and is intended to power Meta data centers. Confirmed
