Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• On May 20, 2026, Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. (NNE) announced via press release (filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K) that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has formally accepted the Company’s previously submitted Construction Permit Application for deployment of the KRONOS MMR™ at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The filing confirms acceptance for NRC review; it is not a construction permit approval.

Key Details

• Date of filing/announcement: May 20, 2026.
• Project: Construction Permit Application for the KRONOS MMR™ reactor.
• Deployment site named: University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
• Disclosure made via press release included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K.

Why It Matters

• NRC acceptance is a formal regulatory milestone: it means the application is sufficiently complete to begin NRC’s review process, an important step before any potential permit issuance.
• For investors, this updates the company’s progress on permitting and project development risk; subsequent NRC actions (requests for additional information, review milestones, or permit decisions) will be important follow-ups to monitor.
