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 may 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) the Company’s ability to establish and maintain supply relationships; (viii) risks related to the Company’s arrangements with third parties for the development, commercialization and deployment of technology associated with the Company’s technology; (ix) risks related to the Company’s other strategic investors and partners; (x) the Company’s ability to successfully commercialize its operations; (xi) the availability and cost of raw materials; (xii) the ability of the Company’s supply base to scale to meet the Company’s anticipated growth; (xiii) the Company’s ability to expand internationally; (xiv) the Company’s ability to update the design, construction and operations of its technology; (xv) the impact of potential delays in discovering manufacturing and construction issues; (xvi) the possibility of damage to the Company’s Texas facilities as a result of natural disasters; (xvii) the ability of commercial plants using the Company’s technology to efficiently provide net power output; (xviii) the Company’s ability to obtain and retain licenses; (xix) the Company’s ability to establish an initial commercial scale plant; (xx) the Company’s ability to license to large customers; (xxi) the Company’s ability to accurately estimate future commercial demand; (xxii) the Company’s ability to adapt to the rapidly evolving and competitive natural and renewable power industry; (xxiii) the Company’s ability to comply with all applicable laws and regulations; (xxiv) the impact of public perception of fossil fuel-derived energy on the Company’s business; (xxv) any political or other disruptions in gas producing nations; (xxvi) the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property and the intellectual property it licenses; (xxvii) the Company’s ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the Business Combination; (xxviii) potential litigation that may be instituted against the Company; and (xxix) other risks and uncertainties indicated in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-273183), originally filed by the Company with the SEC on July 7, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”), including those under “Risk Factors” therein, 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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Dollars in thousands, except share and unit amounts, unless otherwise noted)

NOTE A — Organization and Nature of the Business

NET Power Inc. (the "Company") 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 Process” 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. The Company’s technology is designed to generate electricity from natural gas that is cost-competitive with conventional technologies, while eliminating nearly all air emissions.

The Company commissioned a 50 MWth natural gas-fired demonstration power plant (“Demonstration Plant”) to allow sufficient demonstration and testing of the NET Power Process and its components. The Company achieved first-fire at the Demonstration Plant in May 2018, after two years of development. Additional testing occurred periodically thereafter, including a three-month test campaign in 2021 which resulted in a grid synchronization. The successful first-fire and 2021 testing campaign of the Demonstration Plant represent critical milestones as they supported validation of the technical foundation of the NET Power Process. 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 with targeted completion in 2026.

The Company’s current activities are subject to significant risks, including cost over-runs in the testing and operation of the Demonstration Plant, technical problems with the NET Power Process, and development of competing clean-energy technology sooner or at a lesser cost than the NET Power Process.

The Company consummated the Business Combination (Note C) on June 8, 2023.

NOTE B — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and include some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments. In the Company's opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments consist solely of normal, recurring adjustments.

Principles of Consolidation – The Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss include the accounts of subsidiaries that NET Power Inc. consolidates according to the rules set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 – Consolidation (“ASC 810”). The Company consolidates all subsidiaries in which it owns a 50.0% or greater ownership interest and all variable interest entities ("VIE's") to which it is deemed to represent the primary beneficiary, as described below. The Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss include the accounts of the following wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated VIE's: NET Power Europe LTD (“NP Europe”); NET Power Friendship 7, LLC; NET Power Technology, LLC; NET Power Atlas, LLC; NET Power Canaveral, LLC; NET Power Services, LLC, NET Power Management Holdings Inc.; NET Power Management LLC; NET Power Operations LLC ("OpCo"); NET Power Intermediate LLC and NET Power, LLC (collectively with NET Power Inc., the “Company”). Intercompany balances have been eliminated through the consolidation process.

ASC 810 requires that a reporting entity that possesses a controlling financial interest in a VIE should 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 NET Power Operations LLC meets the definition of a VIE and that the Company became the primary beneficiary of it beginning on the date of the Business Combination (Note C); therefore, the Company must consolidate NET Power Operations LLC from the date of the Business Combination.

Business Combination – The Company applies the guidance within ASC Topic 805 – Business Combinations to all merger and acquisition transactions, including the Business Combination (Note C), through which the Company obtains control over one or more other businesses.

The Company may elect the acquisition method for all transactions and other events through which the Company obtains control over one or more other businesses, including the Business Combination (Note C). Under the acquisition method, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. Liabilities related to contingent

Table of Contents

consideration are recognized on the acquisition date and re-measured at fair value in each subsequent reporting period, if the contingent consideration is liability classified. Goodwill is recognized as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.

Segment Reporting - In accordance with ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting, the Company has one operating segment and one reportable segment. The Company has one line of business.

Revenue Recognition, Trade Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – The Company follows the guidance within ASC Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers to determine how and when it recognizes revenues. The Company accounts for a customer contract when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective contractual obligations, each party’s rights can be identified, payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance and it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it is entitled.

When billed in advance, the payment is deferred and recognized upon delivery of the service. Collectability is assessed based on a number of factors including collection history and customer creditworthiness. If collectability of substantially all consideration to which the Company is entitled under the contract is determined to be not probable, revenue is not recorded until collectability becomes probable. Revenue is recorded based on the transaction price excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes collected and remitted to governmental authorities.

Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company calculates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a risk assessment performed when trade receivables are recognized. Write-offs are recorded at the time when trade receivables are deemed uncollectible.

The Company has historically recognized revenue from two primary sources, feasibility studies and government grants. Feasibility studies represent reviews of customer business operations to determine the viability of the NET Power Process to the customer’s specific use-case. Government grants represent U.S. federal programs that incentivize the development of novel energy solutions. Feasibility studies generally contain one performance obligation, the customer’s acceptance of the feasibility study report at the end of the review period. Government grants generally contain multiple performance obligations related to the incursion of costs associated with the development of in-scope activities that entitle the Company to reimbursement from the sponsoring federal agency.

Fair Value - Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar, but not identical, assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and

•Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available and requires the Company to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s estimates of fair values are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are uncertain and involve significant managerial judgments made by considering factors specific to the asset or liability. The determination of fair value requires more judgment to the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining the fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3.

The Company’s recurring fair value measurements comprise the Private Placement Warrants, the Public Warrants and the Earnout Shares (as defined below) (Note I).

Cash - Cash consists of liquid deposits at banking institutions that are members of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (“FSCS”), the UK’s statutory compensation system for customers of authorized financial services firms. FDIC guidelines guarantee $250 per depositor, per insured bank and FSCS guidelines guarantee £85 per depositor per insured bank. As of June 30, 2023 (Successor) and

Table of Contents

December 31, 2022 (Predecessor), the Company possessed funds in excess of FDIC limits equal to $648,124 and $7,925 respectively. The carrying value of cash equals its fair value.

Warrants - The Company issued public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants” and collectively with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (Note C). The Company accounts for both the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Warrants’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance outlined in ASC Topic 480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480"), ASC Topic 815 - Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815") and relevant SEC reporting rules. The guidance considers whether the Warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether the Warrants meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, whether the Warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815 and whether class of equity into which the Warrants settle possess substantive voting rights. This assessment is conducted at the time of the instruments’ issuance and at each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants remain outstanding. In compliance with ASC 815, the Company accounts for the outstanding Warrants as a liability at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Warrants are subject to remeasurement at each Balance Sheets date with any change in the Warrants’ fair value recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Tax Receivable Agreement - As part of the Business Combinations (Note C), the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with certain shareholders that will represent approximately 75% of the calculated tax savings based on the portion of basis adjustments on future exchanges of Company units and other carryforward attributes assumed that are anticipated to be able to utilize in future years. There was no exchange of Company units as part of the Business Combination and there has been no exchange since the Closing Date therefore, we have not recorded a TRA liability as of June 30, 2023 (Successor).

Intangible Assets - The Company accounts for intangible assets, which consist of developed technology related to the NET Power Process, in accordance with ASC Topic 350 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“ASC 350”). The following table summarizes the estimated useful lives used to amortize definite lived intangible assets:


Intangible Asset Classification						Useful Life
Developed Technology						20

The weighted average amortization period for all intangible assets is 20 years.

Goodwill - The Company recognizes goodwill in accordance with ASC 350. Goodwill represents the excess costs of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment. During the June 8 through June 30, 2023 Successor Period, the Company determined that no impairment charges for goodwill were required to be recognized.

Prepaid Expenses - Prepaid expenses consist of costs paid in advance for software and other subscriptions, patent renewal fees, general liability insurance and employee health insurance.

Property, Plant and Equipment - Property, plant and equipment are recorded at the historical cost to acquire the assets. The costs bases of property, plant and equipment to which the Company held title prior to the Business Combination completion (Note C) were stepped-up to their respective fair values on June 8, 2023 in accordance with the closure of the Business Combination. The Demonstration Plant's depreciable value consists of costs associated with the engineering, procurement, and construction of the facility.

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amounts capitalized to construction in progress are not capitalized until the underlying asset is placed into service. The following table summarizes the estimated useful lives used to depreciate property, plant and equipment and assets:


Asset Classification						Useful Life
Furniture and Equipment						4 – 7
Demonstration Plant						7
Construction in Progress						—

Impairment of Definite-Lived Assets - In accordance with ASC Topic 360 - Property, Plant and Equipment, tangible and intangible assets with finite useful lives are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate

Table of Contents

that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets placed in service is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If such assets are considered to be impaired, impairment equals the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. There were no impairment charges for the period ended June 30, 2023 (Successor) or for the year ended December 31, 2022 (Predecessor).

Lease Agreements – Lease agreements may fall within two categories according to ASC Topic 842 – Leases, operating leases or financing leases. Both operating and finance leases result in the recognition of lease liabilities and associated right-of-use assets that are valued at the net present value of the lease payments and recognized. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception and therefore only recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term greater than one year. The lease term includes the committed lease term identified in the contract, taking into account renewal and termination options that management is reasonably certain to exercise. The discount rate used in the measurement of a right-to-use asset and lease liability is the rate implicit in the lease whenever that rate is readily determinable. If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as a proxy for the discount rate based on the term of the lease unless the implicit rate is available.

Asset Retirement Obligation – The Company recognizes liabilities and the corresponding assets for future obligations associated with the retirement of assets. The fair values of legal obligations to retire and remove long-lived assets are recorded in the period in which the obligation is incurred. Prior to the Business Combination (Note C), asset retirement obligations were reflected in property, plant and equipment. In conjunction with the Business Combination, the Company re-measured its property, plant and equipment assets at their respective June 8, 2023 fair values, which resulted in the asset retirement obligation being removed from property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. When an asset retirement obligation arises, the liabilities and corresponding assets are recorded at their present values using a discounted cash flow approach and the liabilities are accreted using the interest method. The asset retirement costs and corresponding liabilities that have been recorded to-date relate to the obligations of the land lease for the property underneath the Demonstration Plant at the end of the Demonstration Plant's estimated useful life.

The Company’s valuation of the asset retirement obligation related to the Demonstration Plant encompasses an estimate for the cost to restore the site as required by lease terms. The accretion expense generated by the Company’s asset retirement obligation liability is recognized ratably over the Demonstration Plant’s expected seven year useful life.

Net Loss per Unit - During the Predecessor Period (as defined below), the Company computed basic net loss per unit by dividing the total net loss applicable to membership interest holders by the weighted average number of membership interests outstanding during the period. The Company computed diluted net loss per unit by dividing the net loss applicable to membership interest holders by the sum of the weighted-average number of membership interests outstanding during the period and the potentially dilutive effects of distribution units, Profits Interests and options to purchase membership interests. Such items were excluded if their effect was anti-dilutive. Since the impact of the distribution units, Profits Interests, and options to purchase membership interests were anti-dilutive during periods of net loss, there was no difference between the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per unit for the period from April 1 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor), January 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor) or the year ended December 31, 2022 (Predecessor).

Net Loss per Share - During the Successor Period (as defined below), basic net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, increased by the number of any additional shares that would have been outstanding had any potentially dilutive common shares been issued. For the purposes of the diluted earnings per share calculation, Warrants, Earnout Shares and conversion of OpCo Units are excluded from the calculation for the period from June 8 through June 30, 2023 (Successor), as the inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the losses reported in the year.

Equity Based Compensation – The Company applies ASC Topic 718 – Share-Based Payments (“ASC 718”) to account for its equity awards. Equity awards granted to employees include Profits Interests that settled to OpCo Class A units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock. Generally, each award is subject to a service condition that requires a specific period of continued employment or service to the Company to elapse before the award fully vests. Certain awards also include performance conditions to vest fully. The Company’s Compensation Committee establishes these service and performance conditions.

The estimated fair value of NET Power LLC membership units was determined by an independent, external valuation service provider at each equity grant date until the Company became publicly traded. On the Closing Date, the Company fair valued the OpCo Units used to satisfy outstanding share-based awards at the fair value of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

Table of Contents

In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recognizes expense related to equity awards for which vesting is considered probable. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. For service-based awards, compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and expensed ratably over the vesting term. For performance-based grants, the fair value is measured on the grant date and recognized as non-cash compensation expense, considering the probability of the targets being achieved.

Earnout Shares and Restricted Shares - As part of the Business Combination (Note C), 128,908,518 OpCo Class A Units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock, 7,534,900 OpCo Class B Units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock and 54,047,495 shares of Class A Common Stock owned by the Sponsor, the Sponsor's affiliates and private investors were subjected to certain vesting and transfer restrictions. Of the total shares subject to vesting and transfer restrictions, 986,775 OpCo Class B Units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock vest in three tranches contingent upon the share price of the Class A Common Stock (the "Earnout Shares"). The first tranche vest if the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE is greater than or equal to $12.00 for any 20 trading days within a consecutive 30-trading-day period beginning on or after June 23, 2023. The second tranche vests if the closing price of the Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $14.00 for any 20 trading days within a consecutive 30-trading-day period beginning on or after June 23, 2023. The third tranche vests if the closing price of the Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $16.00 for any 20 trading days within a consecutive 30-trading-day period beginning on or after June 23, 2023.

Of the OpCo Units subject to transfer restrictions, 1,575,045 Class B OpCo Units and 42,969,506 Class A OpCo Units (the “Price Based Lockup Shares”) may not be transferred until after the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that if the last sale price of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE, for any 20 trading days within any 30 consecutive trading-day period commencing on or after June 23, 2023, exceeds (i) $12.00 per share, then one-third of the Price-Based Lock-up Shares will no longer be subject to such lock-up restrictions, (ii) $14.00 per share, then an additional one-third of the Price-Based Lock-up Shares will no longer be subject to such lock-up restrictions, and (iii) $16.00 per share, then all of the Price-Based Lock-up Shares will no longer be subject to such lock-up restrictions.

The remaining 5,959,855 Class B OpCo Units and 85,939,012 Class A OpCo Units (the “Time-Based Lockup Shares”) subject to transfer restrictions may not be transferred until after the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that if the last sale price of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE, for any 20 trading days within any 30 consecutive trading-day period commencing on or after December 8, 2023, exceeds $12.00 per share, then the Time-Based Lock-up Shares will no longer be subject to such lock-up restrictions.

The Earnout Shares are reported as liabilities within the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability classification reflects the Company’s evaluation of the Earnout Shares according to ASC 480’s and ASC 815’s standards. The Price Based Lockup Shares and the Time-Based Lockup Shares are included as equity within the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Non-Controlling Interest - Non-controlling interests (“NCI”) represent certain Legacy NET Power Holders partners’ ownership of OpCo and certain directors’ proportionate share of the reporting entity. NCI is comprised of Class B OpCo Units and Class A OpCo Units (Note K). After evaluating each class of equity's redemption rights under ASC 480, the Company determined that both classes of NCI are subject to potential cash redemption that rests outside the Company's control. The Company has classified NCI as a component of mezzanine equity in consideration of this cash redemption feature and in accordance with ASC 810's guidance.

After considering the effects of consolidation, the Company owns 32.0% of OpCo and NCI holders own the residual 68.0%. The Company's comprehensive loss in the 2023 Successor Period is reduced by the portion of comprehensive loss that is attributable to non-controlling interests.

Research and Development Costs - The Company expenses costs related to operations and testing at the Demonstration Plant, as well as engineering and design costs related to development of the NET Power Process as incurred. These costs are included in Research and Development on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Related Parties –The Company applies ASC Topic 850 – Related Parties ("ASC 850") and prevailing SEC Guidance to classify and report transactions with related parties.

The Company has entered into contractual relationships with several of its current shareholders and former members that qualify as related parties according to the aforementioned criteria. These relationships include loans from members, master service agreements (“MSA”) and joint development agreements (“JDA”) designed to develop and deploy the NET Power Process. The Amended and Restated JDA qualifies as an unconditional purchase obligation under ASC Topic 440 - Commitments ("ASC 440") (Note M).

Table of Contents

Income and Uncertain Taxes – The Company applies the guidance set forth in ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) to evaluate its tax positions. The Company evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more-likely-than-not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset may not be realized. The Company calculates the provision for income taxes during interim periods by applying an estimate of the forecasted annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to ordinary income or loss (pretax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items) for the reporting period.

NET Power Inc. consolidates the financial results of OpCo in its consolidated financial statements. OpCo represents a pass-through entity for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a pass-through entity for tax purposes, OpCo is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by OpCo is passed through to its members, including NET Power Inc., which is taxed as a corporation that pays corporate federal, state and local taxes with respect to income allocated from OpCo based on its economic interest in OpCo.

NP Europe is subject to taxation pursuant to UK tax regulations. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023 (Successor) and the year ended December 31, 2022 (Predecessor), NP Europe incurred taxable losses, which may be used to offset future profits. The Company has established a valuation allowance against possible future tax benefits because the ability to recognize these benefits does not meet ASC 740's more-likely-than-not recognition threshold; therefore, no provision or asset for UK income taxes has been included in the consolidated financial statements.

Management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to comply with the applicable accounting guidance.

NOTE C — Business Combination

Rice Acquisition Corp. II (“RONI”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, was organized as a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On June 18, 2021, RONI executed an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class A ordinary shares, generating gross proceeds of approximately $345,000. The net proceeds from the IPO were subsequently placed in a trust account for the intended purpose of consummating a business combination.

On December 13, 2022, NET Power, LLC entered into a Business Combination Agreement with RONI, Rice Acquisition Holdings II LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“RONI Holdings”), Topo Buyer Co, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of RONI Holdings (the “Buyer”), and Topo Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer (“Merger Sub”). At the time of closing, the 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 the Buyer (the “Business Combination”). RONI Holdings renamed itself NET Power Operations LLC and RONI renamed itself NET Power Inc. upon completion of the Business Combination.

The Business Combination resulted in an umbrella partnership, C corporation or “Up-C” structure. Immediately prior to the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, RONI Holdings represented a VIE in accordance with ASC 810’s guidance; 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 RONI Holdings.

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 "Closing Date"). NET Power Inc. is the "Successor" for periods after the Closing Date. Revenue and earnings from the date of the Business Combination to period-end are shown as the "Successor" period on the 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.

The result of the Business Combination generated the following financial results:

•The Business Combination generated $121,883 of expenses, including $16,021 of acquirer expenses recorded “on-the-line” because they would not have been incurred had the Business Combination not closed.

•In contemplation of the Business Combination, the Company modified certain outstanding Profits Interests awards, a portion of which vested during the pre-combination period. The Company included $325 of previously vested, modified Profits Interests issued to the award recipient as consideration transferred to sellers.

•Certain outstanding Profits Interests, which were not modified in contemplation of the Business Combination, that vested during the pre-combination period and that were issued to recipients as part of the Business Combination were included in consideration transferred to sellers. The total fair value of previously vested, unmodified Profits Interests included in consideration transferred to sellers equaled $651.

•All outstanding NET Power, LLC member interests converted into 136,073,365 vested Class A OpCo Units and a corresponding number of vested shares of Class B Common Stock, 1,119,198 unvested Class A OpCo Units and 1,119,198 unvested shares of Class B Common Stock upon completion of the Business Combination.

•The Company registered and issued 67,352,271 shares of Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange.

•The Company recorded 8,624,974 Public Warrants, which are exercisable into 8,624,974 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The Company may redeem the Public Warrants for $0.01 if the last reported trading price of the Company's Class A Common Stock price equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 days within a 30-trading day period. Additionally, the Public Warrants may be redeemed if the last reported trading price of the Company's Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00 and is below $18.00 by paying a make-whole premium. The Public Warrants expire 5 years after the Closing Date.

•The Company recorded 10,900,000 Private Placement Warrants, which are exercisable for 10,900,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants expire 5 years after the Closing Date. The Private Placement Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and are non-redeemable as long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. The Private Placement Warrants and Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are entitled to registration rights.

•The Company recorded $81,243 of deferred tax liabilities, which represent the difference between NET Power Inc.’s tax basis and its US GAAP basis in OpCo, with an offsetting entry to goodwill. The basis difference is primarily attributable to the Company's developed technology and its Demonstration Plant asset.

•The Company received $661,623 of cash from trust net of certain expenses paid on the Closing Date. During the period from June 8 through June 30, 2023 (Successor) this cash earned $2,125 in interest revenue, which is reported as interest revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Earnout Shares - The fair values for 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 term of 3 years, a risk-free rate of 4.4% and estimated equity volatility of 26.5%. The estimated equity volatility assumption is based on a blended average of asset and equity volatility measurements, respectively, of publicly traded companies within the 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 because their price is observable.

The Company uses a Black-Scholes Merton Model to value the Private Placement Warrants. Key inputs into the Black-Scholes Merton Model include the Class A Common Stock closing price of $13.00, the risk free rate of 4.1%, volatility of 27.0%, a term of 5 years and a strike price of $11.50 per 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 Private Placement Warrants are considered to be Level 3 fair value instruments because they are not traded on public markets; therefore, their price is not observable.

Option Liability - The Company’s option liability was issued in conjunction with member loans authorized on October 15, 2021. The loans were fully repaid on February 3, 2022. The interest expense related to these loans equaled $30 and $0 during the period from January 1, 2023 through June 7, 2023 (Predecessor) and the period from June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor), respectively. These measurements were reported in Interest Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. On January 11, 2023, an option holder exercised its option to purchase membership interests associated with the member loan agreement. On February 3, 2023, another option holder also exercised its option to purchase membership interests associated with the member loan agreement. The Company issued 5,824 and 28,764 membership interests to the two option holders, respectively, and received an aggregate of $5,836 from the exercise of the options. No loan options are currently outstanding.

NOTE J — Net Loss per Share and Net Loss per Unit

Successor Period – Basic net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, increased by the number of any additional shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding had any potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock been issued and reduced by the number of shares of Common Stock the Company could have repurchased from the proceeds from issuance of the potentially dilutive shares.

For the purposes of the diluted earnings per share calculation, Warrants, Earnout Shares, BHES Bonus Shares (Note L), unvested Class A OpCo Units and the potential conversion of OpCo Units are excluded from the net loss per share calculation for the period from June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor) because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the losses reported in the Successor Period. Additionally, Earnout Shares and BHES Bonus Shares are excluded from the net loss calculation because the contingencies that would allow for those Earnout Shares to vest into OpCo Units have not yet been met. Based on the amounts outstanding at June 30, 2023 (Successor), the Company excluded the following financial instruments from the computation of diluted net loss per unit because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the losses reported in the Successor Period:

Table of Contents

Class A OpCo Units						136,392,072
Class B OpCo Units						6,638,125
Total						166,729,560

Only shares of Class A Common Stock participate in the Company’s undistributed earnings. As such, the Company’s undistributed earnings are allocated entirely to the Class A Common Stock based on the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding for the period from June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor).

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share for the period from June 8, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (Successor):

Denominator
Weighted-average number shares outstanding, basic and diluted	67,404,794
Net loss per share attributable to shareholders, basic and diluted	$	(0.52)

Predecessor Period – Basic net loss per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of membership interests outstanding. Diluted net loss per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of membership interests outstanding, increased by the number of any additional units that would have been outstanding had any potentially dilutive membership interests been issued and decreased by the number of membership interests the Company could have repurchased from the proceeds from issuance of the potentially dilutive membership interests.

As of June 30, 2022 (Predecessor), the Company’s potentially dilutive securities were Profits Interests, member loan share options and share options. Based on the amounts outstanding at June 30, 2022 (Predecessor), the Company excluded the following potential membership interests from the computation of diluted net loss per unit because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to the losses reported in the Predecessor Period:


Anti-Dilutive Instrument						June 30, 2022 (Predecessor)
Profits Interests						450,013
Member Loan Share Options						34,588
