Segmented information
Cameco has three reportable segments: uranium, fuel services and Westinghouse. Cameco's reportable segments are
strategic business units with different products, processes and marketing strategies.
 
The uranium segment involves the
exploration for, mining, milling, purchase and sale of uranium concentrate. The fuel services segment involves the refining,
conversion and fabrication of uranium concentrate and the purchase and sale of conversion services. The Westinghouse
segment reflects our earnings from this equity-accounted investment (see note 12). Westinghouse is a nuclear reactor
technology original equipment manufacturer and a global provider of products and services to commercial utilities and
government agencies. It provides outage and maintenance services, engineering support, instrumentation and controls
equipment, plant modification, and components and parts to nuclear reactors.
Cost of sales in the uranium segment includes care and maintenance costs for our operations that have had production
suspensions. Cameco expensed $
51,626,000
 
of care and maintenance costs during the year (2023 - $
50,615,000
).
Accounting policies used in each segment are consistent with the policies outlined in the summary of material accounting
policies.

Major customers
Cameco relies on a small number of customers to purchase a significant portion of its uranium concentrates and uranium
conversion services. During 2024, revenues from three customers of Cameco’s uranium and fuel services segments
represented approximately $
1,062,733,000
 
(2023 - $
254,786,000
), approximately
34
% (2023 -
10
%) of Cameco’s total
revenues from these segments.
As customers are relatively few in number, accounts receivable from any individual customer
may periodically exceed 10% of accounts receivable depending on delivery schedule.
