Our quantitative model flags Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. with an Avoid rating, assigning a composite score of 25.3/100 and 1 out of 5 stars. Ranked #4760 of 7,333 stocks, NNE falls in the bottom tier across key factors. Historically, stocks with this profile have faced elevated risk of underperformance and capital loss.
Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. registers a weak quality score of just 15/100, indicating significant profitability challenges. The company reports a return on equity of -6.4% (sector avg: 11.9%). Low quality scores are often associated with businesses in turnaround mode, early-stage growth, or structurally challenged industries.
NNE registers a value score of just 15/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. Key valuation metrics include a P/B ratio of 2.08x. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.
With an investment score of 47/100, NNE exhibits moderate growth-oriented spending. Key growth metrics include a return on assets of -6.4% (sector: 3.5%). The company appears to be balancing growth investments with capital returns, though the pace of investment may not be enough to accelerate top-line growth meaningfully.
Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. is experiencing notably weak momentum with a score of just 25/100. The stock has underperformed its peers and is trending below major moving averages. Revenue growth data is not currently available, while a beta of 1.83 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. While deep momentum weakness can occasionally present value opportunities, it often reflects deteriorating fundamentals or structural headwinds that may persist.
Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. registers a low stability score of 13/100, indicating high volatility and potentially stressed financial conditions. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.83 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.00x (sector avg: 1.0x). Stocks at this level carry elevated capital loss risk and may be unsuitable for conservative portfolios without careful risk management.
The short interest score of 41/100 for NNE suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 1.83), small-cap liquidity risk. With a $1.6B market cap (small-cap), Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. is a small-cap company in the Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #4760 of 7,333 overall (35th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -6.4% trailing the 11.9% sector median. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services peers.
While NNE currently exhibits a AVOID profile, superior opportunities exist within the TRANSPORTATION, COMMUNICATIONS, ELECTRIC, GAS, AND SANITARY SERVICES sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

AUDIT DATA AS OF DEC 31, 2025 (Q3 FY2025)
We rate Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. (NNE) as Avoid with a composite score of 25.3/100 at a current price of $25.38. The stock falls in the bottom quintile of our universe across key quantitative factors, and the multi-factor weakness suggests a high probability of continued underperformance.
The rating is primarily driven by strength in investment (47th percentile) and momentum (25th percentile), which together account for the majority of the composite score. Offsetting weakness in stability (13th percentile) and quality (15th percentile) tempers our overall conviction. We assign a No Moat rating (30/100), High uncertainty, and Poor capital allocation.
Key items to watch: momentum to confirm whether the current price trend has legs; valuation compression risk if growth disappoints. Any material change in these dynamics could warrant a reassessment of our rating. The moat trend is stable, which suggests the competitive landscape is stable for now.
Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. holds a top-quartile position (#0 of 50) within the Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services sector, based on our composite quantitative scoring across quality, value, momentum, and stability factors. The composite score of 25.3/100 places it at rank #4760 in our full 7,333-stock universe. At $1.6B in market capitalization, Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. is a small-cap player in the Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services space, which limits certain scale advantages but may allow for more agile strategic execution.
Momentum indicators (25th percentile) suggest caution regarding the near-term price trend. Revenue growth data is unavailable, limiting our ability to confirm whether momentum is fundamentally supported.
Margin data is not available for Nano Nuclear Energy Inc., which limits our assessment of the company's cost structure and operating efficiency. We rely on factor-based signals to infer business quality in the absence of detailed margin data.
At a current price of $25.38, Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. is trading at a premium to fundamental value. Our value factor score of 15/100 reflects a composite assessment across multiple valuation metrics including price-to-earnings, price-to-book, EV/EBITDA, and price-to-sales ratios relative to both sector peers and the broader market. The premium valuation implies the market is pricing in significant future growth or quality improvements that are not yet fully reflected in current fundamentals.
The stock currently trades at P/B of 2.1x. We evaluate these multiples in the context of both absolute levels and sector-relative positioning to form our valuation view.
A conservative balance sheet (1% D/E) provides financial flexibility for acquisitions, buybacks, or weathering economic downturns without dilution.
The Avoid rating (composite 25.3/100) reflects multi-factor weakness, and historically, stocks in this scoring range have underperformed the market by a meaningful margin.
Weak momentum (25th percentile) suggests institutional selling pressure and unfavorable technical dynamics that may persist.
Below-average quality (15th percentile) raises durability concerns about the fundamental profile and increases the risk of negative earnings surprises.
High beta of 1.83 means amplified losses in market selloffs — in a broad market correction, this stock would likely decline more than the index.
We assign a High uncertainty rating to Nano Nuclear Energy Inc.. Key risk factors include elevated market sensitivity (beta of 1.83), below-average price stability (13th percentile), weak quality scores (15th percentile). The wide range of potential outcomes widens our fair value estimate and increases the possibility of permanent capital impairment. Investors considering this name should size positions accordingly and demand a meaningful margin of safety before initiating.
Specific risk factors that inform our assessment include: elevated market sensitivity (beta of 1.83); below-average price stability (13th percentile); weak quality scores (15th percentile). Each of these factors independently widens the distribution of potential outcomes, and in combination they create a risk profile that demands careful position sizing. The stability factor at the 13th percentile and quality factor at the 15th percentile provide a quantitative summary of the overall risk landscape.
Key risk mitigants include: conservative leverage (1% D/E) limits balance sheet risk. These factors partially offset the identified risks and provide downside protection in adverse scenarios. On balance, the risk-reward profile warrants caution and disciplined position management.
We rate Nano Nuclear Energy Inc.'s capital allocation as Poor. Key concerns include low returns on equity (-6.4%), weak asset returns (ROA -6.4%). Exemplary capital allocators generate ROE above 20% and maintain conservative leverage — Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. significantly underperforms these benchmarks, raising questions about management's ability to create shareholder value.
Investors should scrutinize management's reinvestment decisions and balance sheet trajectory before committing capital. Poor capital allocation often compounds over time: overlevered balance sheets limit strategic flexibility, while low returns on capital destroy shareholder value. We would need to see sustained improvement in profitability metrics and balance sheet discipline before considering an upgrade.
In summary, Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. receives a Avoid rating with a composite score of 25.3/100 (rank #4760 of 7,333). Our quantitative framework assigns a No Moat (30/100, trend: stable), High uncertainty, and Poor capital allocation. The average factor score across quality, value, momentum, stability, and investment is 23/100.
Our analysis does not support a constructive view on Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. at this time. The combination of limited competitive advantages, high uncertainty, and poor capital allocation suggests unfavorable risk-reward at current levels. We recommend investors avoid new positions and existing holders consider reducing exposure.

We do not assign Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. a meaningful economic moat, scoring 30/100 on our composite assessment. Current fundamentals do not demonstrate the kind of durable competitive advantages — such as superior returns on invested capital, margin superiority, or reinvestment efficiency — that would protect the company from competitive erosion over the long term. The highest-scoring pillar, margin superiority, reached only 10/20.
The strongest moat sources are margin superiority (10/20) and financial resilience (9.5/20). GM N/A vs sector 55%, OM N/A vs sector 18%. Interest coverage N/A. These pillars form the core of Nano Nuclear Energy Inc.'s competitive identity and are the primary drivers of excess returns in our framework.
Areas of relative weakness include reinvestment efficiency (0/20) and economic value creation (3/20). Capital turnover N/A. Improvement in these areas could meaningfully widen the moat over time, while deterioration would be an early warning of competitive erosion.
Our moat trend assessment is Stable. Multi-year ROIC and operating margin trajectories show neither meaningful improvement nor deterioration, suggesting the competitive position is steady. We expect Nano Nuclear Energy Inc.'s moat profile to remain largely unchanged absent a material shift in return on capital or industry dynamics.
Key profit drivers are not clearly identifiable from current fundamentals. This may reflect a company in transition, a cyclical downturn, or structural challenges in the business model. We assign a quality factor of 15/100 which further underscores our concern regarding earnings sustainability.
Return metrics include ROE of -6.4% and ROA of -6.4%. Relative to the Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services sector, sector comparison data is limited, and ROE of -6.4% compares to a sector median of 11.9%.
The balance sheet reflects a conservatively managed balance sheet with D/E of 1%. The sector median D/E is 1%, putting Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. in a relatively stronger balance sheet position. Overall balance sheet health is adequate for the current business environment.
NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. Signs a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with EHC Investment L.L.C (EHC) to Support the Advancement of the KRONOS MMR™ Energy System in the UAE and Select Markets within the Gulf region. Ali Al Gebely, Managing Director of EHC Investment and Jay Yu, Founder and Chairman of NANO Nuclear Energy. New York, N.Y., Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NANO Nuclear Energy Inc.

Investing.com -- In an exclusive interview, James Walker, CEO at Nano Nuclear Energy Inc (NASDAQ:NNE), shared with Investing.com why electricity demand growth is causing a near-term cost-of-living and reliability crisis, as electricity prices rise and grid congestion concerns start to materialize. Walker also explains why microreactors provide a viable solution that can meet the demands of AI infrastructure.
Nano Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) stock rose 1.03% to $25.49 in extended trading after reporting Q1 losses of 13 cents per share, beating the consensus estimate of 29 cents per share. The company expects cash expenditures of approximately $65 million over the next 12 months.
NuScale Power stock has plummeted 77% from its October 2025 all-time high of $57.42 to around $13, driven by AI bubble concerns, missed Q3 earnings estimates, share dilution, and major shareholder Fluor's exit. However, the company's first project approval in Romania with Nuclearelectrica offers a potential turnaround, though commercial operation isn't expected until 2033. The stock remains highly speculative for volatile-tolerant investors.
Jay Jiang Yu, President and Chairman of Nano Nuclear Energy Inc., sold 888,000 shares valued at approximately $30 million in late January 2026 through a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The sale reduced his indirect holdings by 9.24%. While the company is advancing its microreactor technology and secured $400 million in funding, it remains early-stage with significant operating losses of $11.6 million in Q1 FY2026.
