Centrus Energy and Antares Nuclear have signed a multi-year contract for Centrus to supply High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) to Antares, with deliveries starting before 2030. This deal supports Antares' advanced reactor projects for defense and space missions, backed by prepayments to expand Centrus' domestic HALEU production capacity. Centrus operates the only licensed HALEU enrichment facility in the Western world and is expanding its commercial-scale production. The contract ensures a reliable U.S.-origin fuel source for national security applications, highlighting growing demand for HALEU in advanced nuclear technologies.
As of Sep 17, 2026 18:12 WIB, Centrus Energy Corp's LEU shares are trading at USD 140.03 on Pluang, showing a modest 0.73% increase over the past day. Despite strong sell interest with 99% of order activity on the platform being sell orders, the market cap stands at $2.84 billion. This price movement occurs as Centrus expands its HALEU production capacity under the new multi-year contract with Antares Nuclear.
