H.C. Wainwright 27th Annual Global Investment Conference summary
31 Dec, 2025Operational highlights
Lost Creek has produced 3 million lb since 2013, with over 12 million lb measured and indicated resources and 13 years of mine life remaining.
2025 YTD production at Lost Creek is just over 200,000 lb U3O8; full production capacity is 1.2 million lb per year.
Shirley Basin project is well advanced, targeting production startup in early 2026, with 8.8 million lb measured and indicated resources and 1 million lb annual capacity.
Exploration focus in 2025 is on Lost Soldier, North Hadsell, and Lost Creek South, with hydrology data collection underway to assess ISR mining applicability.
Centralized plant capacity is 2.2 million lb per year, with all current and future production routed through this facility.
Financial and contract strategy
Q2 operating costs were $42.83/lb, with 2025 average contract price at $61.56/lb and projected 2025 sales of 440,000 lb.
Contracts signed in 2022–2023 were largely fixed price in the high $40s to low $50s, with escalators; current contracts are hybrid, blending fixed and market-related pricing with floors and ceilings.
Spot and term uranium prices have risen, with current spot in the high $70s and new fixed contracts in the low $70s plus escalators.
45% of production through 2023 is already contracted, with evolving contract terms to reflect market conditions.
July cash balance was $49.1 million, supporting ramp-up and staffing at both Lost Creek and Shirley Basin.
Industry and market context
U.S. nuclear power supplies 20% of domestic electricity; globally, 440 reactors operate with 66 under construction, indicating rising demand.
Geopolitical risks impact supply: Russia provides 20% of enriched uranium, Kazakhstan 46% of global U3O8.
U.S. government support includes $2.7 billion for the Nuclear Fuel Security Act and four executive orders to boost domestic nuclear fuel supply.
Growing support for U.S. uranium production may lead to a future premium for domestic supply.
In-situ recovery (ISR) mining is used, recycling 99.3% of water and minimizing environmental impact.
