Will Oklo's FY2025 total operating expenses exceed $100M?
Current Prediction
Why This Question Matters
Management guided $65-80M annual burn, but Q3 2025 quarterly expenses were ~$30M (67% above Q1). If FY2025 total exceeds $100M, it signals faster-than-expected cash depletion and potential runway compression.
Prediction Distribution
Individual Predictions(9 runs)
Q1-Q3 opex: ~$18M, ~$25M, ~$30M = $73M through 9 months. If Q4 continues at Q3 rate, total would be ~$103M.
Management guided $65-80M but actual spending has exceeded pace. Some Q3 expenses may be one-time.
Company is scaling operations. Even slight moderation from Q3 still puts total above $100M.
67% increase from Q1 to Q3. Even if Q4 moderates to $27M, total would be exactly $100M.
Nuclear development does not follow seasonal patterns. Q4 may not moderate.
At $73M through Q3, only $27M needed in Q4. Given Q3 was $30M, this is a lower bar.
Trajectory strongly suggests exceeding $100M.
Borderline case. Could go either way.
Acceleration pattern is clear. More likely than not to exceed $100M.
