NET Power Inc. (NYSE: NPWR) is currently facing a securities class action lawsuit, with a lead plaintiff application deadline of June 17, 2025, for investors who purchased securities between June 9, 2023, and March 7, 2025. The lawsuit alleges that NET Power and certain executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose material information. This legal action was precipitated by the company's March 10, 2025, announcement concerning its financial results for Q4 and full fiscal year 2024. Crucially, NET Power disclosed a substantial escalation in the estimated total installed cost for Project Permian, now projected to be between $1.7 billion and $2.0 billion, a significant increase from the prior estimate of $1.1 billion. Furthermore, the company announced a considerable delay in Project Permian's operational timeline, with the project now expected to come online no earlier than 2029, compared to the previous target of between the second half of 2027 and the first half of 2028. The market reacted severely to this news, with NET Power's share price plummeting by $2.18, or 31.46%, to close at $4.75 per share on March 10, 2025. This development has significantly impacted investor sentiment, as reflected by a per-ticker sentiment score of -0.9 for NPWR, and underscores concerns regarding the company's project execution capabilities and financial forecasting accuracy.
