Jed Dorsheimer has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Centrus Energy’s strategic position in the nuclear energy sector. The company’s transition from an importer of foreign nuclear fuel to a domestic uranium enricher positions it uniquely as the only U.S.-owned supplier of enriched uranium. This shift is critical given the current national security concerns over the U.S.’s reliance on foreign uranium, particularly from Russia, and the need to significantly increase domestic production to meet future energy goals.
Additionally, Centrus Energy stands to benefit from the growing demand for nuclear energy, particularly with the expansion of the small modular reactor market. The company’s focus on increasing its HALEU capacity aligns with this trend. Furthermore, there is potential for significant investment from hyperscalers, who have shown interest in securing nuclear energy, to extend their investments upstream into the enrichment process. These factors collectively underscore the company’s promising outlook and justify the Buy rating.
