BETHESDA, Md. – Centrus Energy (NYSE American: LEU) announced today that its subsidiary, American Centrifuge Operating, LLC (“ACO”), has won an award from the U.S. Department of Energy aimed at expanding domestic commercial production of Low-Enriched Uranium (“LEU”) to meet the needs of existing and future nuclear reactors.

“Our core nuclear fuel segment showed positive results this quarter as our purchase costs continued to decline,” said Daniel B. Poneman, president and chief executive officer. “Despite a difficult market, we continue to make new sales to bolster our long-term order book, and we are well positioned with a diverse supply base to compete for the new business we anticipate will emerge in the early 2020s.
