    Centrus Energy Holds $4.5B Backlog as Sole US Commercial HALEU Producer

    Question

    Centrus Energy Holds $4.5B Backlog as Sole US Commercial HALEU Producer

    Direct answer

    Centrus Energy shares have retreated 69% from their October 2025 record high of $464.25 to trade at $143.00, reflecting revenue delivery timing challenges. However, the company retains a $4.5 billion long-term order backlog across its nuclear fuel supply commitments. Centrus remains uniquely positioned as the sole publicly traded domestic producer of High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU), a critical fuel input for next-generation small modular reactors backing industrial and data center power demand.
