Uranium Energy (NYSEAMERICAN:UEC) Issues Earnings Results

Uranium Energy (NYSEAMERICAN:UEC) posted its quarterly earnings results on Tuesday. The basic materials company reported ($0.11) EPS for the quarter, missing analysts’ consensus estimates of ($0.05) by ($0.06), FiscalAI reports.

Here are the key takeaways from Uranium Energy’s conference call:

• Burke Hollow began production on April 8, marking UEC’s largest greenfield ISR uranium project to come online in more than a decade and a key step toward its vertically integrated U.S. fuel-cycle strategy.
• Third-quarter uranium concentrate production was 32,000 pounds at a total cost of $54.61 per pound ($46.69 cash cost), with management saying the higher unit costs were largely temporary due to timing of regulatory approvals and lower volumes.
• Management expects production and unit costs to improve in fiscal Q4 as new header houses at Christensen Ranch and Burke Hollow ramp up, and it said the company is building more of this work in-house to support faster execution.
• The company ended the quarter with $794 million in liquid assets, no debt, and a large uranium inventory, giving it flexibility to remain 100% unhedged and sell opportunistically.
• UEC made progress on its broader growth pipeline, including UR&C moving to a final shortlist of locations for domestic conversion, Roughrider advancing toward a PFS, and the Alto Parana critical minerals project being described as globally significant for titanium and vanadium supply chains.
