Investor presentation summary
21 Jan, 2026Business model and strategy
Focuses on buying and holding natural uranium (U3O8) for long-term value appreciation, providing pure exposure to uranium prices without exploration or operational risks.
Can purchase up to $100 million of U3O8 annually from Kazatomprom through 2027, with inventory stored in Canada and France.
Operates with a low-cost, outsourced model targeting annual operating costs below 1% of NAV.
Market environment and uranium trends
Uranium spot price ended 2025 at $81.40/lb, up 13% year-over-year, with spot market volume rebounding after years of decline.
Long-term uranium demand is driven by new reactor builds, life extensions, and small modular reactor (SMR) developments, especially in China, India, and the Middle East.
Global nuclear energy demand is projected to rise significantly towards 2050, with China expected to become the largest consumer of natural uranium.
Secondary uranium supply is declining by 7% annually, and mine supply remains concentrated in Kazakhstan, which will account for over 30% of global production.
Utilities face escalating geopolitical risks and declining domestic production, especially in the US, increasing reliance on overseas supply.
Financial position and performance
As of 8 January 2026, holds 23.0 million lbs of U3O8 valued at $82.00/lb, with a net asset value (NAV) of $1,966.4 million (£1,462.9 million) and NAV per share of £6.10.
Share price reached a 52-week high of £6.09, closely tracking NAV, with a market cap of £1,459.4 million.
Supported by a blue-chip shareholder base and positive analyst ratings from major financial institutions.
