How to read these numbers
Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right. See how we grade analysts on earnings-call questions.
Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.
No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.
Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.
Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.
Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

BEBloom Energy Corporation7 questions · 5 reporting periods · 1 of 7 challenging
Calendar 2025 Q4
would you expect them to take delivery of the fuel cells regardless given the existing power demand environment?
Show response
Sridhar gave an unequivocal answer on unconditional sale and noted servers are not perishable and can be redeployed to other AEP locations.
how do you think about doing similar transactions with other hyperscalers if that's something they're interested in?
Show response
Sridhar could not discuss details of an unexecuted agreement and would commit only to case-by-case evaluation, noting these were not penny warrants.
Calendar 2025 Q3
any capital commitments for Bloom under those joint ventures or other costs related to that
Show response
Kurzymski gave a clean answer confirming no capital commitments beyond small project-level equity, which closed the related-party question thread.
Calendar 2025 Q2
So does that give you -- does that level of visibility put you in a position to push pricing?
Show response
Sridhar corrected the premise, conceding customer subsidies go down a little bit, but argued high electricity prices plus cost reduction protect margins.
Calendar 2025 Q1
Can you remind us how long energy servers typically last and to the extent that you can?
Show response
Sridhar explained hotbox replacement economics on a roughly five-year cycle and how service pricing covers two replacements over a 15-year contract.
is there a new gas grid infrastructure that needs to be put in place? And if you can characterize the timing
Show response
Sridhar gave a concrete timing range and argued gas extension should not be the long pole against data center construction schedules.
Calendar 2024 Q4
Would any of the energy servers in these markets be covered on the agreement with SK
Show response
Sridhar confirmed both paths are open and that Bloom would accept SK-sourced deals under the existing contract.

Calendar 2026 Q2
curious why that isn't a long-term answer to reactor power given that's fuel that's available today.
Show response
CEO explained plutonium is a limited inventory best used as a bridge fuel for up to a couple of gigawatts, with the terminal state being fast reactors and recycling using transuranic fuel for near-limitless low-cost supply.
Calendar 2026 Q1
For the PJM interconnection request, do you have a sense for the turnaround time on that?
Show response
The CEO lacked the interconnection timeline; the CFO estimated months to over a year and said it is largely disconnected from the nuclear regulatory process.
Calendar 2025 Q4
can you speak to why they saw Aurora powerhouses as an attractive use for the land?
Show response
CEO said the state wanted nuclear and economic growth to backfill decommissioning job losses, and Oklo sees similar repurposed-federal-land opportunities in other states.
Calendar 2025 Q3
Just a 2-parter on the fuel line pilot at INL. Do you have a target online date?
Show response
Jake described the DOE-first build/operate then NRC-conversion path and flagged possible sales into the government, but gave no firm online date. Partially answered.
Calendar 2025 Q2
could Oklo start recognizing revenues sooner, say, when those projects are seeing gas -- generating power from gas?
Show response
Craig said it is early days on commercial terms but confirmed that participating in early power sales could potentially lead to revenue recognition.
Calendar 2025 Q1
when we talk about the timeline for subsequent COLAs, I think in the past, you said six to 18 months
Show response
Jake described a staggered-parallel path and said additional COLAs will likely be under NRC review within a year of the INL application.
can you tell us when you might start taking delivery of that fuel?
Show response
Jake clarified that first-plant fuel is government-awarded material already at Idaho; commercial procurement with Centrus applies to the second plant onward.
SMRNuScale Power Corporation6 questions · 4 reporting periods · 0 of 6 challenging
Calendar 2026 Q1
Is there a need for the SMR space to maintain a certain level of domestic content for tax credit eligibility?
Show response
CCO confirmed there are U.S.-content requirements but said alternatives exist where domestic supply falls short, such as large-scale forgings.
I'm curious if new licensing pathways could accelerate the regulatory process for TVA
Show response
COO said the company is exploring how to take credit for Part 53 enhancements while remaining far down the Part 52 path, in ongoing dialogue with the NRC.
Calendar 2025 Q4
I'm wondering if that's the sort of pricing that applies for Romania and the TVA.
Show response
CEO did not confirm the Oak Ridge study's per-kilowatt pricing for Romania or TVA, pivoting to NuScale's target markets.
Calendar 2025 Q2
What would it take for you to order long lead items for another 6 modules this year?
Show response
Management said Doosan can make up to 20 modules per year and cited a recent customer visit to Doosan, but did not specify what would trigger ordering long-lead items for another 6 modules.
Calendar 2025 Q1
How quickly after booking an order could NuScale turn around and deliver modules if it was a U.S. power plant?
Show response
Hopkins said 2030 COD is achievable if a deal closes soon, otherwise it slips to 2031; Doosan has begun long-lead vessel fabrication.
when we talk about extension of Phase 2 for RoPower for the first quarter of next year, what does that entail?
Show response
Hamady explained RoPower's FEED Phase 2 envisages a two-step FID and is being funded to complete engineering studies toward a final investment decision.
