Why Invest in Uranium Now?

  1. Relatively More Reliable, Efficient, Clean, Safe and Uses Less Land
    • Nuclear energy is highly reliable and efficient compared to other forms of electricity generation1
    • Nuclear energy is one of the cleanest energy sources based on CO2 emissions2
    • Nuclear energy is one of the safest energy sources available3
  2. Uranium and Nuclear Energy May Be Critical to the Clean Energy Transition & Achieving Energy Security
    • Nuclear fuel supply security is vital, as national grids depend on stable nuclear power
    • Increased focus on decarbonization and energy security has shifted nuclear energy policies and government support where at COP28, 22 countries pledge to triple global nuclear capacity by 2050
    • The Russia-Ukraine war (started in February 2022) has created an urgent energy crisis
    • Geopolitical implications are constraining supply with the coup in Niger, utilities self-sanctioning regarding Russia, and the Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act passed in the U.S. House and awaits the Senate
    • The G7 has pledged to end reliance on Russian uranium and fuel services. As bottlenecks in conversion and enrichment are worked through, an industry shift to overfeeding may increase near-term demand for uranium
  3. New Uranium Bull Market Remains Intact
    • Unprecedented number of nuclear plant restarts, extensions and new builds is increasing demand for uranium
    • 2023 long-term contracts were 160 million lbs., providing a return to utility replacement rate contracting for the

Mine supply remains well short of world reactor requirements (a supply-demand deficit)

Despite increases in the incentive price, well-established producers have struggled to meet production targets. Kazatomprom announced that 2024 production increases will not occur, and production will largely be flat YoY

Uranium demand isn't price sensitive, as fuel costs minimally impact nuclear plant profitability

We firmly believe the era of destocking is over, and utilities are likely to buy more uranium for supply security

Existing uranium supply may fall short of future needs, inviting non-utility buyers into the market; secondary uranium supplies have diminished in recent years

Nuclear Energy is Reliable…

  • Nuclear energy has the highest capacity factor1 versus both traditional and alternative energy sources, prompting renewed attention to help solve global energy needs
  • Most nuclear power utilities are required to hold at least three years' worth of uranium supply2

  • Capacity factor measures the total amount of energy produced during a period of time divided by the amount of energy the plant would have produced at full capacity.

Efficient…

  • Uranium's high energy density reduces the impact of extraction and transport, facilitating the ability to contain waste
  • One nuclear fuel pellet is roughly 10-13 millimeters long and 8-13.5 millimeters in diameter (approximately the size of a gummy bear) and weighs ~10 grams1
