Centrus IPO Presentation Deck
Domestic Uranium Enrichment Capability Required
• The last of America's Cold War-era enrichment plants shut down in 2013.
•
Longstanding U.S. policy and nonproliferation treaty obligations prohibit the use of foreign
enrichment technologies for national security purposes.
A domestic technology - like the one Centrus has developed - is required.
• April 2020 report from the White House Nuclear Fuel Working Group calls for
"immediate action to support U.S. uranium mining and restore the viability of the entire
front-end of the nuclear fuel cycle."
• Proposes a $150M/yr uranium reserve starting in 2021. By 2023, the initiative could be
expanded to include direct purchases of domestic uranium enrichment.
