Fluor's decision to convert 15 million of its Class B shares in NuScale into Class A shares, which can be sold on the stock market, has contributed to the stock's decline. Fluor reported poor earnings with sales down 6% year over year and adjusted profit cut nearly in half. The conversion of shares aims to simplify accounting and return value to shareholders by cashing in on NuScale's high-flying stock. However, this move could flood the market with cheap NuScale shares, potentially depressing the share price [2].

NuScale Power reported a quarterly revenue of $13.38 million and a GAAP net loss of $14.01 million in its latest earnings release.
