Description: CCJ Cameco September 29, 2025
Cameco Corp (NYSE:CCJ) is a vertically integrated uranium producer that generates revenue across three business lines: (1) Uranium – exploration, mining, milling, and the sale of uranium concentrate; (2) Fuel Services – conversion, enrichment, and fabrication of nuclear fuel; and (3) Westinghouse – design, construction, and aftermarket support for commercial nuclear reactors.
The company’s customer base spans nuclear utilities in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, positioning it as a primary supplier in a market where long-term contracts dominate pricing and demand is driven by the global push for low-carbon electricity generation.
Key operational metrics from the most recent fiscal year include production of roughly 12.5 million pounds of U₃O₈, cash flow from operations of about $2.1 billion, and a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.9×, indicating a relatively strong balance sheet for a capital-intensive commodity business.
Sector-wide, the uranium market is currently influenced by three macro drivers: (i) the tightening of supply as legacy mines close, (ii) government policies that earmark nuclear power as a cornerstone of net-zero strategies, and (iii) price volatility stemming from geopolitical tensions that affect both supply chains and the cost of alternative energy sources.
