24/7 Wall St. Price Target Summary
A Brutal Year Meets a Genuine Milestone
Oklo shares are down 63.8% over the past year and 47.05% year to date, falling from a 52-week high of $193.84 to $34.38. The one-month move is down 11.5%, though shares have ticked up 4.91% in the past week.
The operational story runs the other direction. On the Q2 2026 call, management said Groves “reached first criticality in early August 2026,” going from greenfield to criticality in “a little over 11 months from groundbreaking.” Oklo ended the quarter with $3 billion in cash and marketable securities, a war chest few pre-revenue peers can match.

Why Bulls See a Breakout Ahead
The bull case rests on demand scale and execution speed. Oklo’s pipeline sits at roughly 14 GW, anchored by a 12 GW master power agreement with Switch, a 500 MW LOI with Equinix carrying a $25M prepayment, and Aurora Ohio’s planned 1.2 gigawatt campus with Kiewit.
