Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts are forward-looking and usually identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “will,” “will likely result,” “would” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements may relate to the development of the Company's technology, the anticipated demand for the Company's technology and the markets in which the Company operates, the timing of the deployment of plant deliveries, and the Company's business strategies, capital requirements, potential growth opportunities and expectations for future performance (financial or otherwise). Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, projections, targets, opinions and/or beliefs of the Company, and such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors.
The risks and uncertainties that could cause those actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to the Company and risks related to the Company's ability to meet its projections; (ii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably and the ability of the Company retain its management and key employees; (iii) the Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards effectively; (iv) the capital-intensive nature of the Company's business model, which will likely require the Company to raise additional capital in the future; (v) barriers the Company may face in its attempts to deploy and commercialize its technology; (vi) the complexity of the machinery the Company relies on for its operations and development; (vii) potential changes and/or delays in site selection and construction that result from regulatory, logistical, and financing challenges; (viii) the Company's ability to establish and maintain supply relationships; (ix) risks related to the Company's arrangements with third parties for the development, commercialization and deployment of technology associated with the Company's technology; (x) risks related to the Company's other strategic investors and partners; (xi) the Company's ability to successfully commercialize its operations; (xii) the availability and cost of raw materials; (xiii) the ability of the Company's supply base to scale to meet the Company's anticipated growth; (xiv) the Company's ability to expand internationally; (xv) the Company's ability to update the design, construction and operations of its technology; (xvi) the impact of potential delays in discovering manufacturing and construction issues; (xvii) the possibility of damage to the Company's Texas facilities as a result of natural disasters; (xviii) the ability of commercial plants using the Company's technology to efficiently provide net power output; (xix) the Company's ability to obtain and retain licenses; (xx) the Company's ability to establish an initial commercial scale plant; (xxi) the Company's ability to license to large customers; (xxii) the Company's ability to accurately estimate future commercial demand; (xxiii) the Company's ability to adapt to the rapidly evolving and competitive natural and renewable power industry; (xxiv) the Company's ability to comply with all applicable laws and regulations; (xxv) the impact of public perception of fossil fuel-derived energy on the Company's business; (xxvi) any political or other disruptions in gas producing nations; (xxvii) the Company's ability to protect its intellectual property and the intellectual property it licenses; (xxviii) risks relating to data privacy and cybersecurity, including the potential for cyberattacks or security incidents that could disrupt our or our service providers' operations; (xxix) potential litigation that may be instituted against the Company; and (xxx)
other risks and uncertainties indicated in Part I, Item 1A of the Annual Report and other documents subsequently filed with the SEC by the Company
.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions made by our management prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements in deciding whether to invest in our securities.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, we undertake no obligation to update the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The Company gives no assurance that it will achieve its expectations.

NET Power Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In thousands, except share, per share and unit amounts, unless otherwise noted)
NOTE 1 — Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Business
NET Power Inc. (“Net Power” or the “Company”) is a clean energy technology company that has developed a proprietary process for producing electricity using a predominantly carbon dioxide working fluid that involves the capture and reuse, sale and sequestration of carbon dioxide (the “Net Power Cycle”). The Net Power Cycle is the subject of U.S. and foreign patents, as well as additional applications and provisional applications on file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and international patent authorities.
Business Combination
On December 13, 2022, NET Power, LLC entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Rice Acquisition Corp. II (“RONI”), Rice Acquisition Holdings II LLC (“RONI OpCo”), Topo Buyer Co, LLC (“Buyer”) and Topo Merger Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”). On June 8, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into NET Power, LLC, with NET Power, LLC continuing as the surviving entity, resulting in it becoming a majority-owned, direct subsidiary of Buyer. RONI OpCo, a subsidiary of RONI, renamed itself NET Power Operations LLC (“OpCo”) and RONI renamed itself NET Power Inc. upon completion of the merger (the “Business Combination”). The Business Combination resulted in an umbrella partnership, C corporation or “Up-C” structure.
OpCo is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810,
Consolidation
(“ASC 810”); therefore, RONI represented the accounting acquirer within the Business Combination structure. The Company elected push-down accounting for the Business Combination and recorded the push-down entries at OpCo. ASC 810 requires that a reporting entity that possesses a controlling financial interest in a VIE consolidate that VIE. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb the VIE's losses and the right to receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. The Company determined that OpCo continued to meet the definition of a VIE after the Business Combination and that the Company became the primary beneficiary of OpCo beginning on the Closing Date of the Business Combination; therefore, the Company has consolidated OpCo from the date of the Business Combination.
As a result of the Business Combination, the Company's financial statement presentation distinguishes NET Power, LLC as the “Predecessor” through June 7, 2023 (the “Predecessor Period”) and Net Power as the “Successor” for periods beginning on or after the Closing Date (the “Successor Period”). Revenue and earnings after the date of the Business Combination are shown in the Successor Period on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting in the Successor Period, the consolidated financial statements for the Successor Period are presented on a full step-up basis; therefore, the Successor Period consolidated financial statements are not comparable to the consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor Period, which are not presented on the same full step-up basis.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of subsidiaries that Net Power consolidates according to the rules set forth in ASC 810. The Company consolidates all wholly-owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries in which it owns a 50% or greater ownership interest and all VIE's to which it is deemed to represent the primary beneficiary, as described above. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIE's. Intercompany balances have been eliminated through the consolidation process.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information; however, certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in complete financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In management's opinion, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and include all adjustments, which consist of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for fair statement.
11
Table of
Contents
The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2024.
Reclassification of Prior Period Amounts
Certain prior period financial information has been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
NOTE 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Company’s significant accounting policies used for the period from April 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 (Successor) and the period from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 (Successor), unless otherwise noted below are consistent with those used for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Accordingly, reference Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”) for the Company’s significant accounting policies.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. The estimates, judgments and assumptions made by the Company when accounting for items and matters such as, but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, asset valuations and share-based compensation were based on information available at the time they were made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as amounts reported on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes cash held to secure a letter of credit.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had restricted cash of $
2,415
included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had
no
restricted cash.
Investment Securities
We hold investment securities that are classified as available-for-sale securities and are available to be sold in the future as needed.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
During December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2023-09,
Income Taxes (Topic 740)
—
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
(“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires public business entities to provide annually a tabular reconciliation of the reported income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations to the product of the income (or loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and the applicable statutory federal income tax rate using specified categories and to disclose separately reconciling items within certain categories with absolute values equal to or greater than five percent of the product of the income (or loss) from continuing operations before tax and the applicable statutory tax rate. Additionally, ASU 2023-09 requires a public business entity to disclose the year-to-date amount of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, to federal, state and foreign jurisdictions. If a payment to a single federal, state or foreign jurisdiction equals or exceeds five percent of total income taxes paid, ASU 2023-09 requires separate disclosure of that payment. Finally, ASU 2023-09 requires a public business entity to disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign jurisdictions and to disclose income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated between federal, state and foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 removes the requirement to disclose the nature and estimate of the range of reasonably possible increases or decreases in the unrecognized tax benefits balance in the next 12 months, or to make a statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for calendar years beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Master Services Agreements
A significant shareholder has provided the Company with marketing services, patent administration services and technology maintenance services related to the development of the Net Power Cycle. These totals are included in General and administrative – related party on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Another shareholder supports the Company with regard to general business oversight and with the operation of the Demonstration Plant. These totals are reflected in Research and development – related party on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company had $
230
and $
142
in current liabilities payable to related parties as of June 30, 2024 (Successor) and December 31, 2023 (Successor), respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to these services. These related party payables are unsecured and are due on demand.
Engineering Support Provided by Former Board Member
A shareholder, who is also a former board member, supported the Company with regard to general business oversight and with the operation of the Demonstration Plant. These expenses are reflected in Research and development – related party on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss prior to the Business Combination. The counterparty ceased being a related party on June 8, 2023 upon completion of the Business Combination.
BHES JDA
On February 3, 2022, the Company entered into a Joint Development Agreement with affiliates of BHES, which is a shareholder (the “Original JDA”). The Original JDA's counterparties subsequently amended the agreement's terms on June 30, 2022 and December 13, 2022 (the “Amended and Restated JDA”, and collectively with the Original JDA, the “BHES JDA”). The Amended and Restated JDA represents a contract that engages BHES to invest in, develop and deploy the NET Power Cycle in collaboration with the Company. The Amended and Restated JDA entitles BHES to payments of cash and equity in exchange for services related to the development and commercialization of the technology. Subsequent to the Business Combination, the Company records the measurement of services provided by BHES within Research and development on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Prior to June 8, 2023 (Successor), the Company recorded costs incurred under the BHES within Research and development – related party on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss due to the size of their ownership of the Company and because an employee of BHES served on the Company's Board of Directors. Subsequent to the Business Combination, neither BHES nor its affiliates occupy seats on the Company's Board of Directors and its percentage of ownership fell below 5%; therefore, BHES no longer qualifies as a related party after June 7, 2023 (Predecessor).

247,655
NET Power, LLC membership interests with a value of approximately $
79,054
in exchange for retiring the purchase option. The membership interests converted into
7,905,279
Class A OpCo Units and a corresponding quantity of shares of Class B Common Stock in conjunction with the Business Combination. The loss generated from the settlement of the share purchase option is recorded as Option settlement – related party expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Earnout Shares
The fair values for the Class A OpCo Units and corresponding shares of Class B Common Stock that, pursuant to an agreement with Sponsor and certain of its affiliates, are or were subject to forfeiture, with vesting occurring in three tranches based on the trading share price of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE (the “Earnout Shares”) are estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo simulation considers daily simulated stock prices as a proxy for the Company's daily volume-weighted average share price. The key inputs into the valuation of the Earnout Shares are an expected
remaining term of
1.94
years, a risk-free rate of
4.6
% and estimated equity volatility of
39.9
%. The estimated equity volatility assumption is based on a blended average of asset and equity volatility measurements of publicly traded companies within t
he Company's peer group.
Warrants
The Public Warrants are valued using their quoted and publicly available market prices. Since their fair value is predicated on quoted prices in an active market for identical instruments, the Public Warrants are considered to be level 1 fair value instruments.
The Company uses a Black-Scholes Merton Model to value the Private Placement Warrants. Key inputs into the Black-Scholes Merton Model include the last Class A Com
mon Stock closing price of $
9.83
as of June 30, 2024 (Successor), a risk-free rate of
4.3
%, volatility of
41.5
%, a term of
3.94
ye
ars and a strike pric
e of $
11.50
p
er share.
The volatility assumption is based on a blended average of operating and equity volatility of publicly traded companies within the Company's peer group, the Company's own historical volatility and the implied volatility of the Public Warrants.
The Private Placement Warrants are considered to be level 3 fair value instruments.
18
Table of
Contents
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term investments are considered level 2 fair value instruments because cost basis is not observable in a public market.
Investment Securities
Available-for-sale investments are classified as Level 1 because they are valued using using the most recent quoted prices for identical assets in active markets.
Option Liability
The Company's option liability was issued in conjunction with member loans on October 15, 2021. The loans were fully repaid on February 3, 2022; however, the members had
one year
to exercise their options subsequent to the repayment of the loans. The interest expense related to these loan options was $
30
during the period from January 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor). These measurements were reported in Interest income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In early 2023,
two
option holders exercised their options to purchase an aggregate of
34,588
membership units in NET Power, LLC for total proceeds of $
5,836
. There were no loan options outstanding at the time of the Business Combination.

Restricted Stock Units (Successor)
During
the period from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 (Successor)
, there were
520,605
restricted stock units (“RSU”) awarded under the terms of the NET Power Inc. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan. As of June 30, 2024 (Successor), there was
$
9,050
of unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested RSUs, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of
three
years
. Generally, RSUs granted to employees and the majority of executives either cliff-vest on the
three-year
anniversary date of the grant or vest ratably on each anniversary of the date of grant over a
three-year
period. Annual awards granted to independent directors cliff-vest on the first anniversary of each award's grant date.
Additionally, there were
1,257,467
RSUs awarded to certain legacy employees as permitted by the business combination agreement (the “Make-Whole Awards”). These RSUs vest upon occurrence of the following events, which we classify as performance conditions: (i) commercial operations achieved by the Company’s first utility-scale power plant, and (ii) a fully-executed license agreement and final investment decision achieved for another utility-scale power plant. The Make Whole Awards expire
ten years
from the grant date. The Company will record compensation expense related to the Make-Whole Awards from the date the performance conditions are considered probable through the expected vesting dates. As of
June 30, 2024 (Successor), the performance conditions are not considered probable, therefore, no compensation cost has been recognized related to the Make-Whole Awards.

Performance Stock Units (Successor)
On April 2, 2024, there were

PSUs awarded to certain executives in which the vesting occurs upon the achievement of specific market-based conditions related to the Company's financial performance over a
three-year
period, modified based on the Company's Relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) and subject to final vesting based on the participant’s continued employment through the end of the requisite service period. The amount of awards that will ultimately vest for the PSU can range from
0
% to
200
% based on the TSR calculated over a
three year
period. The fair value of the PSUs was determined using the Monte Carlo Simulation model and is being expensed over the

The stock options vest and become exercisable upon satisfaction of the following performance and market conditions: (i) commercial operations achieved by the Company’s first utility-scale power plant, (ii) a fully-executed license agreement and final investment decision achieved for another utility-scale power plant, and (iii) a closing share price above $
30
per share for
60
consecutive trading days (or the equivalent when adjusted for any stock splits, reverse stock splits, and cumulative dividends paid per share until the vesting date). The Company will recognize compensation expense from the date the performance conditions become probable through the expected vesting date. As of June 30, 2024 (Successor), the performance conditions are not considered probable; therefore, no expense has been recognized related to these stock options.

BHES may earn additional shares under the terms of the Amended and Restated JDA (“BHES Bonus Shares”) if it meets certain contractually stipulated project milestones related to the development of our technology. The Company determined that BHES’s achievement of each of these milestones is probable in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718; therefore, the Company recognizes the compensation cost associated with milestone share-based payments ratably over the expected service period.

Office Leases
On June 6, 2022, the Company entered into an office space lease agreement for commercial office space in Durham, North Carolina (the “Measurement Building Lease”), which became effective on November 1, 2022 and had an original lease term of
60
months from the signing date. The lease was classified as an operating lease and the lease liability was calculated using an incremental borrowing rate of
8.0
%. On August 11, 2023, the Company agreed to terminate the Measurement Building Lease effective October 6, 2023 and entered into a new office lease agreement (the “Roney St. Lease”). The Roney St. Lease commenced on October 6, 2023 and has an original lease term of
62
months from the commencement date. The simultaneous termination of the Measurement Building Lease and execution of the Roney St. Lease represents a single transaction accounted for as a modification of the Measurement Building Lease. As such, the Company remeasured the lease liabilities and right-of-use asset associated with the Measurement Building Lease and recognized those balances over the amended, remaining lease term.
On February 28, 2024, the Company entered into an office space lease agreement for commercial office space in Houston, Texas (the “Atlas Tower Lease”), which became effective in July of 2024 and has an original lease term of
68
months from the commencement date. The Company will measure the lease liabilities and right-of-use asset associated with the Atlas Tower Lease upon commencement of the lease and will recognize those balances over the lease term.
The Roney St. Lease includes an early termination option that enables the Company to end the lease on or after its
50
th month. The Atlas Tower Lease includes an early termination option that enables the Company to end the lease at the end of its
44
th month. As of June 30, 2024 (Successor), the Company determined that it is unlikely to exercise either termination option; therefore, the above minimum lease payments, as well as the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities associated with
the Roney St. Lease, do not consider the effects of this termination option on the lease term.
As of June 30, 2024 (Successor), the Company had $
1,987
in lease liabilities and $
1,886
in right-of-use assets attributable to the Roney St. Lease o
n its condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Land Leases
On March 8, 2024, the Company entered into a land lease with a subsidiary of Occidental Petroleum, a related party, which becomes effective no later than December 31, 2024. The lease has an initial term of
60
months from the commencement date. Additionally, the term may be extended for up to
three
consecutive periods of
ten years
. The Company will measure

the lease liabilities and right-of-use asset upon commencement of the lease and will recognize those balances over the lease term.
The Company leases the land under the Demonstration Plant. During the second quarter of 2024, we entered into a lease amendment extending the lease term. The amended lease expires on the earlier of (i) January 1, 2031 or (ii) the termination of the Company's oxygen supply agreement with the lessor. Lease payments for the land equal
one
dollar per year. As of June 30, 2024 (Successor), the value of the right-of-use asset attributable to the Demonstration Plant land lease was $

, for the period from April 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 (Successor) and the period from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 (Successor), respectively. The annual effective tax rate varies from the statutory federal income tax rate due to amounts allocated to non-controlling interest, state income taxes and other permanent items. The income tax benefit recorded through June 30, 2024 (Successor) includes a cumulative adjustment of $
1,647
related to finalizing deferred taxes as of the Closing Date of the Business Combination. Reference

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Dollars in thousands, except share and unit amounts, unless otherwise noted)
The following management's discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our condensed consolidated results of operations and financial condition and includes forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included in the forepart of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (our “Quarterly Report”) and included in Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”), as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2024.
The following MD&A should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Part 1, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report.
Overview
We are a clean energy technology company that has developed a unique power generation system (the “Net Power Cycle”) that can produce clean, reliable, and low-cost electricity from natural gas while capturing virtually all atmospheric emissions. The Net Power Cycle is designed to inherently capture CO
2
and eliminate air pollutants such as SO
X
, NO
X
, and particulates.
The Business Combination
On December 13, 2022, NET Power, LLC entered into the Business Combination Agreement with RONI, RONI OpCo, Buyer and Merger Sub. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into NET Power, LLC with NET Power, LLC surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination on June 8, 2023, RONI was renamed NET Power Inc. (
“
Net Power” or the
“
Company”).
As discussed in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company's financial statement presentation distinguishes NET Power, LLC as the “Predecessor” through June 7, 2023 (the
“
Predecessor Period”) and Net Power as the
“
Successor” for periods after the Closing Date (the “Successor Period”). Revenue and earnings after the date of the Business Combination are shown in the Successor Period on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting in the Successor Period, the consolidated financial statements for the Successor Period are presented on a full step-up basis; therefore, Successor Period consolidated financial statements are not comparable to the consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor Period, which are not presented on the same full step-up basis.
Key Factors Affecting Our Prospects and Future Results
As a result of the Business Combination, Net Power became a publicly traded company with Class A Common Stock and Public Warrants trading on the NYSE, which has necessitated the hiring of additional personnel and the implementation of procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, material additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal, and administrative resources, including increased personnel costs, audit and other professional service fees.
We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including, but not limited to, cost over-runs in the testing and operation of the Demonstration Plant, technical problems with the Net Power Cycle, potential supply chain issues, and development of competing clean-energy technology sooner or at a lesser cost than the Net Power Cycle. Supply chain issues related to the manufacturing and transportation of key equipment may lead to a delay in our commercialization efforts, which could impact our results of operations.
Commencing Commercial Operations
Over the next several years, the Company plans to conduct additional research and testing campaigns at its Demonstration Plant and construct its first utility-scale plant. Net Power began purchasing and expects to make additional purchases of initial long-lead materials for the first utility-scale plant in 2024 and targets initial power generation between the second half of 2027 and the first half of 2028. We expect that the 300 MWe class plant will be a Net Power-led consortium project located at an OXY-hosted site in the Permian Basin of West Texas. We also continue to evaluate other sites in North
26
Table of
Contents
America for Net Power plants. We expect that the project will fully integrate power production with transportation and underground storage of carbon dioxide. We are focused on delivering a project that will catalyze future adoption for utility-scale customers.
Major remaining development activities relating to completing construction of our first utility-scale plant are similar to the activities we previously undertook to design, build, and commission the Demonstration Plant. These activities include but are not limited to: finalizing a siting study, initiating all permitting required, conducting a front-end engineering design (
“
FEED”) study, originating all required supply and off-take contracts, structuring the project to attract any required third party equity and debt financing and achieving final investment decision, initiating the engineering, procurement and construction (
“
EPC”) process, and constructing and commissioning the facility.
Key Components of Results of Operations
We are a development stage company and our historical results may not be indicative of our future results. Accordingly, the drivers of our future financial results, as well as the components of such results, may not be comparable to our historical or future results of operations.

amounts for the combined periods from
April 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor) and June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor). Revenue during these periods was not significant. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we generated revenue for test data sales at our Demonstration Plant. We have historically generated revenue through various contracts with potential future license customers for access to testing results, other data and feasibility studies.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses associated with our general and administrative organization and professional fees for legal, accounting, and other consulting services. Our general and administrative expenses
decreased by $23,810, or 75%,
for the three months ended June 30, 2024 (Successor), as compared to
amounts for the combined periods from
April 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor) and June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor). This
decrease
was primarily
attributable t
o $16,644 in costs related to the Business Combination and $1,958 in costs incurred as a result of becoming a public company during 2023. This
decrease
was also due to decreased amounts paid for professional services partially offset by an increase in corporate headcount.

a one-time cost for settlement of an option agreement in connection with the close of the Business Combination.
Depreciation, amortization and accretion
Our depreciation, amortization and accretion expenses consist primarily of depreciation on our Demonstration Plant and amortization of intangible assets. Depreciation, amortization and accretion expens

April 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor) and June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor). As a result of the Business Combination, we adjusted the value of acquired assets to fair value, which resulted in a significant increase in intangible assets for internally developed technology and the fair value of our Demonstration Plant.
These increases resulted in an increase in related amortization and depreciation expense in the Successor Period.
Interest income (expense)
Our interest income (expense)

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash, short-term investments and investments in highly liquid available-for-sale securities. Historically, our sources of liquidity have also included raising additional capital through the sale of equity. We may issue additional equity securities in the future. We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our R&D activities and our near-term business operations, including our contractual obligations and other commitments. Our current liquidity needs primarily involve R&D activities for the ongoing development of our technology, general and administrative costs, and expenditures to purchase long-lead items related to our first commercial scale facility.
The following table summarizes our liquidity position as of the dates indicated:

As of June 30, 2024, we had short-term investments totali
ng $100,000, which was comprised of a single six-month certificate of deposit custodied by a domestic banking institution and available-for-sale securities comprised of investment grade, fixed income securities totaling $101,653. Additionally, our current liabilities were $14,557 and $12,021
at June 30, 2024 (Successor) and December 31, 2023 (Successor), respectively.
We believe we have the ability to manage our operating costs, including R&D expenditures, such that our existing liquidity will be sufficient to fund our obligations for the next 12 months following the filing of this Quarterly Report. We believe that our current sources of liquidity on hand should be sufficient to fund our general corporate operating expenses as we work to commercialize our technology, but certain costs are not reasonably estimable at this time and we may require additional funding. More specifically, we may require additional funding in order to successfully construct our first utility-scale plant and to originate additional Net Power plant opportunities.

Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities
was
$10,837 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $46,115 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our net cash used in operating activities to date have been primarily comprised
of payroll, material and supplies, facilities expense, and professional services related to R&D, including the BHES JDA, and general and administrative activities. This change was primarily due to costs associated with the completion of the Business Combination and our corresponding transition to operating as a public company during the
six months ended June 30, 2023,
As we continue to increase hiring and build out the Company, we exp
ect our cash used in operating activities to increase significantly before we start to generate any material cash inflows from our operations.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations
Asset Retirement Obligation
We hold a lease for the approximately 218,900 square feet of land under the Demonstration Plant. In addition, we have an oxygen supply agreement with the lessor to supply oxygen to the Demonstration Plant. The lease expires on the earlier of (i) January 1, 2031 and (ii) the termination of our oxygen supply agreement with the lessor. The term of the oxygen supply agreement expires on January 1, 2030 with automatic 12-month renewal terms. The oxygen supply agreement may be terminated by us or by the lessor upon 24 months written notice prior to the expiration date of its current term. The underlying lease requires the removal of all equipment and the obligation to restore the land to post-clearing grade level, which has resulted in the recognition of an asset retirement obligation liability of $2,146 and $2,060 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Leases

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

“
EGC's”) from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-EGC's, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. We expect to be an EGC at least through the end of 2024 and will have the benefit of the extended transition period. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.
