Cameco said that as of June 30, its long-term commitments require an average annual delivery of 28 million pounds of uranium over the next five years as opposed to the 26 million pounds reported at the end of March. The company also said it hopes to deliver between 31 million and 33 million pounds of uranium this year, a boost from previous expectations of 29 to 31 million.
“The significant momentum seen in the nuclear energy industry and the heightened supply risk caused by geopolitical developments are translating into increased opportunities for Cameco,” Tim Gitzel, the company’s chief executive, said in a statement. Cameco’s positive outlook is a welcome change for the uranium sector, which has endured a tough decade following the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan in 2011 that put a chill on nuclear energy demand globally.as countries across the globe race to meet climate goals. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government, for instance, expects nuclear energy to play a critical role in lowering Canada’s emissions.
Gross profit increased by 18 per cent to $110 million from $93 million in the same quarter last year, due to a higher market price for uranium.
