These forward-looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and represent management’s current views and assumptions with respect to future events and operational, economic and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, events or results and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may be beyond our control.
The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements made by us include those factors discussed herein, including those factors discussed in (a) Part I, Item 1.

CENTRUS ENERGY CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Centrus (the “Company”), which include the accounts of the Company, its principal subsidiary, Enrichment Corp., and its other subsidiaries, as of June 30, 2023, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022, was derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial results for the interim period. Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s components of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, are insignificant.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies of the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There has not been a material change to the Company’s accounting policies since that report.
2. REVENUE AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table presents revenue from SWU and uranium sales disaggregated by geographical region based on the billing addresses of customers (in millions):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
United States | $ | 72.8 |  |  | $ | 7.3 |  |  | $ | 131.5 |  |  | $ | 19.9 |
Foreign | 14.8 |  |  | 78.2 |  |  | 14.9 |  |  | 83.3
Revenue - SWU and uranium | $ | 87.6 |  |  | $ | 85.5 |  |  | $ | 146.4 |  |  | $ | 103.2 |

Refer to Note 12, Segment Information, for disaggregation of revenue by segment. SWU sales are made primarily to electric utility customers and uranium sales are made primarily to other nuclear fuel related companies. Technical Solutions revenue resulted primarily from services provided to the U.S. government and its contractors. SWU and uranium revenue is recognized at a point in time and Technical Solutions revenue is generally recognized over time based on direct costs incurred or the right to invoice method (in situations where the value transferred matches the Company’s billing rights) as the customer receives and consumes the benefits.

Accounts Receivable

|  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
|  | ($ millions)
Accounts receivable: |  |  |  |
Billed |  | $ | 2.5 |  |  | $ | 29.0 |
Unbilled * |  | 6.5 |  |  | 9.1 |
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 9.0 |  |  | $ | 38.1 |
* Billings under certain contracts in the Technical Solutions segment are invoiced based on approved provisional billing rates. Unbilled revenue represents the difference between actual costs incurred and invoiced amounts. The Company expects to invoice and collect the unbilled amounts after actual rates are submitted to the customer and approved. Unbilled revenue also includes unconditional rights to payment that are not yet billable under applicable contracts pending the compilation of supporting documentation.

Contract Liabilities
The following table presents changes in contract liability balances (in millions):

|  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022 |  | Year-To-Date Change
Accrued loss on HALEU Operation Contract: |  |  |  |  |  |
Current - Accounts payable and accrued liabilities |  | $ | 8.7 |  |  | $ | 20.0 |  |  | $ | (11.3) |
Deferred revenue - current |  | $ | 265.1 |  |  | $ | 258.4 |  |  | $ | 6.7 |
Advances from customers - current |  | $ | 30.2 |  |  | $ | 14.8 |  |  | $ | 15.4 |
Advances from customers - noncurrent |  | $ | 32.8 |  |  | $ | 46.2 |  |  | $ | (13.4) |

Previously deferred sales recognized in revenue totaled $14.8 million and $59.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
LEU Segment
The SWU component of LEU typically is bought and sold under contracts with deliveries over several years. The Company’s agreements for natural uranium hexafluoride and uranium concentrate sales generally are shorter-term, fixed-commitment contracts. The Company’s sales under contract in the Order Book extend to 2030. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Order Book was approximately $1.0 billion. The Order Book represents the estimated aggregate dollar amount of revenue for future SWU and uranium deliveries under contract and includes approximately $328 million and $319 million of Deferred Revenue and Advances from Customers at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Most of the Company’s customer contracts provide for fixed purchases of SWU during a given year. T he Company’s Order Book is partially based on customers’ estimates of the timing and size of their fuel requirements and other assumptions that are subject to change. For example, depending on the terms of specific contracts, the customer may be able to increase or decrease the quantity delivered within an agreed range. T he Company’s Order Book estimate also is based on the Company’s estimates of selling prices, which may be subject to change. For example, depending on the terms of specific contracts, prices may be adjusted based on escalation using a general inflation index, published SWU price indicators prevailing at the time of delivery, and other factors, all of which are variable. T he Company uses external composite forecasts of future market prices and inflation rates in its pricing estimates.
14

Technical Solutions Segment
Revenue for the Technical Solutions segment, representing the Company’s technical, manufacturing, engineering, procurement, construction, and operations services offered to public and private sector customers, is recognized over the contractual period as services are rendered.
In 2019, the Company entered into a cost-share contract with the DOE, the HALEU Demonstration Contract, to deploy a cascade of centrifuges to demonstrate production of HALEU for advanced reactors. The DOE agreed to reimburse the Company for 80% of its costs incurred in performing the contract. The DOE modified the contract several times to increase the total contract funding to $173.0 million and to extend the period of performance to November 30, 2022. The impact to Cost of Sales in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, is $0 and $0.5 million, respectively, for previously accrued contract losses attributable to work performed in the periods. As of June 30, 2023, a total of $19.6 million of previously accrued contract losses have been realized and the accrued contract loss balance included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is $0. The Company has received aggregate cash payments under the HALEU Demonstration Contract of $171.1 million through June 30, 2023.
In 2022, DOE elected to move the operational portion of the demonstration to a subsequent, competitively-awarded contract that will allow for a much longer period of operation than would have been possible under the original contract. On November 10, 2022, after a competitive solicitation, the DOE awarded the HALEU Operation Contract to the Company with work beginning December 1, 2022. The base contract value is approximately $150 million in two phases through 2024. Phase 1 includes an approximately $30 million cost share contribution from Centrus matched by approximately $30 million from the DOE to complete construction of the cascade, begin operations and produce the initial 20 kilograms of HALEU UF 6 by December 31, 2023.
Phase 2 of the contract includes continued operations and maintenance, and production for a full year at an annual production rate of 900 kilograms of HALEU UF 6, by no later than December 31, 2024. The DOE will own the HALEU produced from the demonstration cascade and Centrus will be compensated on a cost-plus-incentive-fee basis, with an expected Phase 2 contract value of approximately $90 million, subject to Congressional appropriations. The HALEU Operation Contract also gives DOE options to pay for up to nine additional years of production from the cascade beyond the base contract; those options are at the DOE’s sole discretion and subject to the availability of Congressional appropriations.
The impact to Cost of Sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 is $5.8 million and $11.3 million, respectively, for previously accrued contract losses attributable to work performed in the period. As of June 30, 2023, a total of $12.6 million of previously accrued contract losses has been realized. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the remaining accrued contract loss balance of $8.7 million and $20.0 million, respectively, is included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities. The HALEU Operation Contract is funded incrementally and the DOE currently is obligated for costs up to approximately $33.0 million of the $120.1 million estimated transaction price for Phases 1 and 2. The Company has received aggregate cash payments under the HALEU Operation Contract of $13.2 million through June 30, 2023.
The Company currently does not have a contractual obligation to perform work in excess of the funding provided by the DOE. If the DOE does not commit to additional costs above the existing funding, the Company may incur material additional costs or losses in future periods that could have an adverse impact on its financial condition and liquidity.

3. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH
The following table reconciles the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets to amounts on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 212.5 |  |  | $ | 179.9 |
Deposits for financial assurance - current (a) | 0.2 |  |  | 0.2 |
Deposits for financial assurance - noncurrent | 32.3 |  |  | 32.3 |
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 245.0 |  |  | $ | 212.4 |

(a) Deposits for financial assurance - current is included within Other Current Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table provides additional detail regarding the Company’s deposits for financial assurance (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| Current |  | Long-Term |  | Current |  | Long-Term
Collateral for Inventory Loans | $ | — |  |  | $ | 29.8 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 29.8 |
Workers Compensation | — |  |  | 2.4 |  |  | — |  |  | 2.4 |
Other | 0.2 |  |  | 0.1 |  |  | 0.2 |  |  | 0.1 |
Total deposits for financial assurance | $ | 0.2 |  |  | $ | 32.3 |  |  | $ | 0.2 |  |  | $ | 32.3 |

The Company has provided financial assurance to states in which it was previously self-insured for workers’ compensation in accordance with each state’s requirements in the form of a surety bond or deposit that is fully cash collateralized by Centrus. Each surety bond or deposit is subject to reduction and/or cancellation, as each state determines the likely reduction of workers’ compensation obligations pertaining to the period of self-insurance. In March, May, and October 2022, the Company entered into three inventory loans that required a cash deposit into an escrow fund. See Note 4, Inventories.
4. INVENTORIES
Centrus holds uranium at licensed locations (e.g., fabricators) in the form of natural uranium hexafluoride and as the uranium component of LEU in transit to meet book transfer requests by customers and suppliers. Centrus also holds SWU as the SWU component of LEU at licensed locations or in transit to meet book transfer requests by customers and suppliers. Fabricators process LEU into fuel for use in nuclear reactors. Components of inventories are as follows (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| Current Assets |  | Current Liabilities (a) |  | Inventories, Net |  | Current Assets |  | Current Liabilities (a) |  | Inventories, Net
Separative work units | $ | 19.9 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 19.9 |  |  | $ | 24.1 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 24.1 |
Uranium | 268.7 |  |  | 72.8 |  |  | 195.9 |  |  | 185.1 |  |  | 60.8 |  |  | 124.3 |
Total | $ | 288.6 |  |  | $ | 72.8 |  |  | $ | 215.8 |  |  | $ | 209.2 |  |  | $ | 60.8 |  |  | $ | 148.4 |

(a)This includes inventories owed to suppliers for advances of uranium.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
16

The Company also may borrow SWU or uranium from customers or suppliers, in which case the Company will record the SWU and/or uranium and the related liability for the borrowing using a projected and forecasted purchase price over the borrowing period. In March 2023, the Company borrowed UF 6 which was recorded to inventory at a value of $22.5 million. The inventory value was recorded based on the estimated fair market value of the inventory on the date of borrowing. In June 2023 and 2022, the Company performed a revaluation of the Long-Term Inventory Loans reflecting an updated projection of the timing and sources of inventory to be used for repayment. These revaluations were recorded to Cost of Sales and resulted in an increase to the related liability of $0.8 million and $2.9 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2023, the total liability of borrowed inventory was $84.0 million, of which $74.1 million was recorded in Long-Term Inventory Loans and $9.9 million was recorded in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities. At December 31, 2022, the total liability of borrowed inventory was $58.6 million, of which $48.7 million was recorded in Long-Term Inventory Loans and $9.9 million was recorded in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities.
5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets originated from the Company’s reorganization and application of fresh start accounting as of the date the Company emerged from bankruptcy, September 30, 2014, and reflect the conditions at that time. The intangible asset related to the Company’s sales Order Book is amortized as the Order Book, existing at emergence, is reduced, principally as a result of deliveries to customers. The intangible asset related to customer relationships is amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated average useful life of 15 years. Amortization expense is presented below gross profit on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Intangible asset balances are as follows (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| Gross Carrying Amount |  | Accumulated Amortization |  | Net Amount |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  | Accumulated Amortization |  | Net Amount
Sales order book | $ | 54.6 |  |  | $ | 40.4 |  |  | $ | 14.2 |  |  | $ | 54.6 |  |  | $ | 39.9 |  |  | $ | 14.7 |
Customer relationships | 68.9 |  |  | 40.2 |  |  | 28.7 |  |  | 68.9 |  |  | 37.9 |  |  | 31.0 |
Total | $ | 123.5 |  |  | $ | 80.6 |  |  | $ | 42.9 |  |  | $ | 123.5 |  |  | $ | 77.8 |  |  | $ | 45.7 |

6. DEBT
A summary of debt is as follows (in millions):

|  |  | June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
| Maturity |  | Current |  | Long-Term |  | Current |  | Long-Term
8.25% Notes: | Feb. 2027 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Total |  |  | $ | 6.1 |  |  | $ | 92.6 |  |  | $ | 6.1 |  |  | $ | 95.7 |

Interest on the Company’s 8.25% Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears as of February 28 and August 31 based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The 8.25% Notes were issued in connection with a troubled debt restructuring; therefore, all future interest payment obligations on the 8.25% Notes are included in the carrying value of the 8.25% Notes. As a result, interest payments are reported as a reduction in the carrying value of the 8.25% Notes and not as interest expense. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $6.1 million of interest was recorded as current and classified as Current Debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additional terms and conditions of the 8.25% Notes are described in Note 8, Debt, of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
7. FAIR VALUE
Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, the following hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:
•Level 1 assets include investments with quoted prices in active markets that the Company has the ability to liquidate as of the reporting date.
•Level 2 assets include investments in U.S. government agency securities, corporate and municipal debt whose estimates are valued based on observable inputs, other than quoted prices.
•Level 3 assets include investments with unobservable inputs, such as third-party valuations, due to little or no market activity.

9. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In calculating diluted net income per share, the number of shares is increased by the weighted average number of potential common shares related to stock compensation awards including restricted stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights and notional stock units, and the warrant. No dilutive effect is recognized in a period in which a net loss has occurred.
The weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted income per share are as follows:

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to the Rights Agreement, which amends the Rights Agreement, dated as of April 6, 2016, by and among the Company, and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc., as rights agent, as amended by (i) the First Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of February 14, 2017, (ii) the Second Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of April 3, 2019, (iii) the Third Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of April 13, 2020, and (iv) the Fourth Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of June 16, 2021.
The Fifth Amendment to the Rights Agreement (i) increases the purchase price for each one one-thousandth (1/1000th) of a share of the Company’s Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, from $18.00 to $160.38; and (ii) extends the Final Expiration Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) from June 30, 2023 to June 30, 2026.
The Fifth Amendment was not adopted as a result of, or in response to, any effort to acquire control of the Company. The Fifth Amendment has been adopted in order to preserve for the Company’s stockholders the long-term value of the Company’s net operating loss carry-forwards for United States federal income tax purposes and other tax benefits.
Awards under Executive Incentive Plan
Notional stock units are a component of the 2019 Executive Incentive Plan for participating executives for the three-year period ending December 31, 2021. The plan payouts were settled in Class A Common Stock in April 2021 and March 2022. In April 2020, notional stock units and SARs were granted to participating executives with a vesting period ending in April 2023.
These awards were initially determined to be likely settled in cash, and compensation cost for the notional stock units and SARs were re-measured each reporting period based on the trading price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and the cumulative vested costs were accrued in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities or Other Long-Term Liabilities. In February 2022, the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board determined that remaining notional stock units granted in 2019 and 2020 would be paid in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The related obligation of $10.6 million was reclassified from Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities to Excess of Capital over Par Value in the first quarter of 2022 based on the market share price at the time of the Board’s decision. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company withheld $1.9 million of shares that vested during the period for the purpose of funding the grantees’ tax withholding obligations under the terms of the stock-based compensation plan.
21

In March 2022, restricted stock was granted to participating executives with a vesting period ending in March 2025. In March 2023, restricted stock was granted to participating executives with a vesting period ending in March 2026. The March 2022 and 2023 awards are payable in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock subject to achieving a threshold level of cumulative net income over the vesting period. The grant-date fair value is included in Excess of Capital Over Par Value as the value is amortized over the vesting period.
The plan payouts for the 2020-2022 performance period were settled in Class A Common Stock in March and April 2023. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company withheld $1.9 million of shares that vested during the period for the purpose of funding the grantees’ tax withholding obligations under the terms of the stock-based compensation plan.
11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments under SWU Purchase Agreements
TENEX
The Russian government-owned entity TENEX is a major supplier of SWU to the Company. Under the 2011 TENEX Supply Contract, the Company purchases SWU contained in LEU received from TENEX, and the Company delivers natural uranium hexafluoride to TENEX for the LEU’s uranium component. The LEU that the Company obtains from TENEX is subject to quotas under the RSA and U.S. legislation adopted in 2020 and to other restrictions applicable to commercial Russian LEU. Further, the ability of the Company or TENEX to perform under the TENEX Supply Contract is vulnerable to (i) sanctions or restrictions that might be imposed by Russia, the United States, or other countries as a result of the war in Ukraine, or otherwise, (ii) customers and other parties who may object to receiving or handling Russian LEU or SWU, or (iii) suppliers and service providers seeking to limit their involvement with business related to Russia.
The TENEX Supply Contract originally was signed with commitments through 2022, but was modified in 2015 to give the Company the right to reschedule certain quantities of SWU of the original commitments into the period 2023 and beyond, in return for the purchase of additional SWU in those years. The Company has exercised this right to reschedule in each year through December 31, 2022. As a result of exercising this right to reschedule, the Company has purchase commitments that could extend through 2028.
The TENEX Supply Contract provides that the Company must pay for all SWU in its minimum purchase obligation each year, even if it fails to submit orders for such SWU. In such a case, the Company would pay for the SWU, but have to take the unordered SWU in the following year.
Pricing terms for SWU under the TENEX Supply Contract are based on a combination of market-related price points and other factors. This formula was subject to an adjustment at the end of 2018 that reduced the unit costs of SWU under this contract in 2019 and for the duration of the contract.
22

Orano
In 2018, the Company entered into the Orano Supply Agreement with a French company, Orano Cycle, for the long-term supply of SWU contained in LEU. The Orano Supply Agreement subsequently was assigned by Orano Cycle to its affiliate, Orano CE. Under the amended Orano Supply Agreement, the supply of SWU runs through 2030. The Orano Supply Agreement provides significant flexibility to adjust purchase volumes, subject to annual minimums and maximums in fixed amounts that vary year by year. The pricing for the SWU purchased by the Company is determined by a formula that uses a combination of market-related price points and other factors and is subject to certain floors and ceilings.
Russian Suspension Agreement
Beginning in September 2022, the DOC and the ITC, respectively, initiated two “sunset” reviews of the RSA that will determine if the RSA should be maintained. These “sunset” reviews are required to be conducted every five years. This is the fifth round of “sunset” reviews of the RSA. In April 2023, the DOC published a notice that this round of reviews concluded with determinations to keep the RSA in effect.
Milestones Under the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement
The Company’s predecessor, USEC Inc., and DOE signed the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement dated June 17, 2002, pursuant to which the parties made long-term commitments directed at resolving issues related to the stability and security of the domestic uranium enrichment industry. The 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement requires Centrus to develop, demonstrate and deploy advanced enrichment technology in accordance with milestones, including the deployment of a commercial American Centrifuge Plant, and provides for remedies in the event of a failure to meet a milestone under certain circumstances, including terminating the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement, revoking Centrus’ access to DOE’s centrifuge technology that is required for the success of the Company’s ongoing work with the American Centrifuge technology, requiring Centrus to transfer certain rights in the American Centrifuge technology and facilities to DOE, and requiring Centrus to reimburse DOE for certain costs associated with the American Centrifuge technology. The 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement provides that if a delaying event beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of Centrus occurs that could affect Centrus’ ability to meet the American Centrifuge Plant milestones under the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement, DOE and the Company will jointly meet to discuss in good faith possible adjustments to the milestones as appropriate to accommodate the delaying event. In 2014, the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement and other agreements between the Company and DOE were assumed by Centrus subject to an express reservation of all rights, remedies and defenses by DOE and the Company under those agreements. DOE and the Company have agreed that all rights, remedies and defenses of the parties with respect to any missed milestones and all other matters under the 2002 DOE-USEC Agreement continue to be preserved, and that the time limits for each party to respond to any missed milestones continue to be tolled.
23

Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings, including the pending legal proceedings described below.
In 1993, USEC-Government entered into a lease for the Paducah and Portsmouth GDPs with the DOE. As part of that lease, DOE and USEC-Government also entered into a Power MOU regarding power purchase agreements between DOE and the providers of power to the GDPs. Under the Power MOU, DOE and USEC-Government agreed upon the allocation of rights and liabilities under the power purchase agreements. In 1998, USEC-Government was privatized and became Enrichment Corp., now a principal subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to legislation authorizing the privatization, the lease for the GDPs, which included the Power MOU as an Appendix, was transferred to Enrichment Corp., and Enrichment Corp. was given the right to purchase power from DOE. The Paducah GDP was shut down in 2013 and deleased by Enrichment Corp. in 2014. On August 4, 2021, DOE informally informed Enrichment Corp. that the Joppa power plant, which had supplied power to the Paducah GDP, was planned to undergo D&D. According to DOE, the power purchase agreement with Electric Energy Inc. requires DOE to pay for a portion of the D&D costs of the Joppa power plant, and DOE has asserted that a portion of the DOE liability is the responsibility of Enrichment Corp. under the Power MOU in the amount of approximately $9.6 million. The Company is assessing DOE’s assertions including whether all or a portion of any such potential liability had been previously settled. The Company has not formed an opinion on the merits of DOE’s claim nor is it able to estimate its potential liability, if any, for such claim and no expense or liability has been accrued.
On May 26, 2019, the Company, Enrichment Corp., and six other DOE contractors who have operated facilities at the Portsmouth GDP in Piketon, Ohio (including, in the case of the Company, the American Centrifuge Plant site located on premises currently leased from DOE) were named as defendants in a class action complaint filed by Ursula McGlone, Jason McGlone, Julia Dunham, and K.D. and C.D., minor children by and through their parent and natural guardian Julia Dunham (collectively, the “McGlone Plaintiffs”) in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division. The complaint seeks damages for alleged off-site contamination allegedly resulting from activities on the Portsmouth GDP site. The McGlone Plaintiffs are seeking to represent a class of (i) all current or former residents within a seven-mile radius of the Portsmouth GDP site and (ii) all students and their parents at the Zahn’s Corner Middle School from 1993-present. Since its initial filing, the complaint has been amended four times, the latest of which was filed on March 18, 2021. Likewise, based on motions brought by the Company, Enrichment Corp. and the other DOE contractors, the court has dismissed ten of the fifteen claims and dismissed claims brought on behalf of the minor children. As such, the case continues in the discovery stage of litigation. The Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that its operations at the Portsmouth GDP site were fully in compliance with the NRC’s regulations. Further, the Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that any such liability should be indemnified by DOE under the Price-Anderson Act. The Company and Enrichment Corp. have provided notifications to DOE required to invoke indemnification under the Price-Anderson Act and other contractual provisions.
On June 8, 2022, the Company, Enrichment Corp., and six other DOE contractors who operated facilities at the Portsmouth GDP were named as defendants in a complaint filed by Brad Allen Lykins, as administrator of the estate of Braden Aaron Lee Lykins in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division (“Lykins Complaint”). In March 2021, Brayden Lykins, who was thirteen years old, passed away from leukemia. The complaint alleges that the defendants released radiation into the environment in violation of the Price-Anderson Act causing Lykins’ death and seeks monetary damages. On August 30, 2022, the Company, Enrichment Corp., and the other defendants filed their answer to the Lykins Compliant. The Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that their operations at the Portsmouth GDP site were fully in compliance with the NRC’s regulations. Further, the Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that any such liability should be indemnified by DOE under the Price-Anderson Act. The Company and Enrichment Corp. have provided notifications to DOE required to invoke indemnification under the Price-Anderson Act and other contractual provisions.
24

On March 8, 2023, the Company, Enrichment Corp., and six other DOE contractors who operated facilities at the Portsmouth GDP were named as defendants in a complaint filed by Christian C. Rose in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division (“Rose Complaint”). The Rose Complaint alleges that the defendants released radiation into the environment in violation of the Price-Anderson Act causing injuries and death and seeks monetary damages. On May 15, 2023, the Company, Enrichment Corp. and the other defendants filed their answers to the Rose Complaint. The Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that their operations at the Portsmouth GDP site were fully in compliance with the NRC’s regulations. Further, the Company and Enrichment Corp. believe that any such liability should be indemnified by DOE under the Price-Anderson Act. The Company and Enrichment Corp. have provided notifications to the DOE required to invoke indemnification under the Price-Anderson Act and other contractual provisions.
Centrus is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, other than the above, Centrus does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters, individually and in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its cash flows, results of operations, or consolidated financial condition.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.
This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements particularly in light of the economic, social, and market uncertainty created by, among other things, the war in Ukraine. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
Centrus, a Delaware corporation (“Centrus,” the “Company”, “we” or “us”), is a trusted supplier of nuclear fuel components and services for the nuclear power industry, which provides a reliable source of carbon free energy. References to “Centrus”, the “Company”, “our”, or “we” include Centrus Energy Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries as well as the predecessor to Centrus, unless the context indicates otherwise.
Centrus operates two business segments: (a) LEU, which supplies various components of nuclear fuel to commercial customers from our global network of suppliers, and (b) Technical Solutions, which provides advanced engineering, design, and manufacturing services to government and private sector customers and is deploying uranium enrichment and other capabilities necessary for production of advanced nuclear fuel to power existing and next-generation reactors around the world.
Our LEU segment provides most of the Company’s revenue and involves the sale of enriched uranium, the fissile component of nuclear fuel to customers, which are primarily utilities that operate commercial nuclear power plants. The majority of these sales are for the enrichment component of LEU, which is measured in SWU. Centrus also sells natural uranium (the raw material needed to produce LEU) and occasionally sells uranium concentrates, uranium conversion or LEU with the natural uranium hexafluoride and SWU components combined into one sale.
LEU is a critical component in the production of nuclear fuel for reactors that produce electricity. We supply LEU and its components to both domestic and international utilities for use in nuclear reactors worldwide. We provide LEU from multiple sources, including our inventory, medium and long-term supply contracts, and spot purchases. As a long-term supplier of LEU to our customers, our objective is to provide value through the reliability and diversity of our supply sources.
Published spot price indicators for SWU reached historic highs in April 2009 at $163 per SWU. In the years following the 2011 Fukushima accident in Japan, spot prices declined more than 75%, bottoming out in August 2018 at $34 per SWU. This was followed by a slow and steady rise, reaching $56 per SWU by December 31, 2021. In 2022, spot prices increased substantially, reaching $110 per SWU by December 31, 2022. In 2023, spot prices continue to increase, reaching $136 on June 30, 2023. This represents an increase of 24% since the beginning of the year and 300% over the 2018 historic low. This surge in the SWU spot price beginning in 2022 has been driven by uncertainty created as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, coupled with growing interest in nuclear power as a source of reliable carbon-free energy.
When Russian supply is included, the uranium enrichment segment of the global nuclear fuel market is oversupplied. But without Russian supply, the global market for uranium enrichment would be undersupplied. Changes in the supply-demand balance and in the competitive landscape arising from the war in Ukraine may continue to affect pricing trends, change customer spending patterns, and create uncertainty in the uranium market. At the same time, there remains uncertainty about future demand for nuclear power generation. To address these changes and uncertainties, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to grow our business organically or through acquisitions and other strategic transactions.
27

Our Technical Solutions segment is dedicated to the restoration of America’s domestic uranium enrichment capability to play a critical role in meeting U.S. national security and energy security requirements and advancing America’s nonproliferation, energy, and climate objectives. Our Technical Solutions segment also is focused on repairing broken and vulnerable supply chains, providing clean energy jobs, and supporting the communities in which we operate. Our goal is to deliver major components of the next-generation nuclear fuels that will power the future of nuclear energy as it provides reliable carbon-free power around the world.
Under the HALEU Demonstration Contract, Centrus substantially completed a cascade of sixteen AC100M centrifuges in Piketon, Ohio, for the DOE to demonstrate HALEU production. The HALEU Demonstration Contract was originally set to expire on June 1, 2022. However, the DOE extended the Contract to November 30, 2022 with closeout activities to be completed later this year. Due to challenges DOE experienced in providing withdrawal cylinders as government furnished equipment, the DOE elected to change the scope of the HALEU Demonstration Contract and moved the operational portion of the demonstration to a new, competitively-awarded contract that would provide for operations beyond the term of the HALEU Demonstration Contract. DOE incrementally funded the HALEU Demonstration Contract with total funding to date of $173.0 million.
On November 10, 2022, after a competitive solicitation, the DOE awarded the HALEU Operation Contract to the Company with work beginning December 1, 2022. The base contract value is approximately $150 million in two phases through 2024. Phase 1 includes an approximately $30 million cost share contribution from Centrus matched by approximately $30 million from the DOE to complete construction of the cascade, begin operations and produce the initial 20 kilograms of HALEU UF 6 by December 31, 2023.
Phase 2 of the contract includes continued operations and maintenance, and production for a full year at an annual production rate of 900 kilograms of HALEU UF 6, by no later than December 31, 2024. The DOE will own the HALEU produced from the demonstration cascade and Centrus will be compensated on a cost-plus-incentive-fee basis, with an expected Phase 2 contract value of approximately $90 million, subject to Congressional appropriations. The HALEU Operation Contract also gives DOE options to pay for up to nine additional years of production from the cascade beyond the base contract; those options are at the DOE’s sole discretion and subject to the availability of Congressional appropriations. Concurrently, pursuant to an amendment to our lease for the Piketon facility, the DOE assumed all D&D liabilities arising out of the HALEU Operation Contract. At this time, work is progressing on-schedule and on-budget for production of the initial 20 kilograms of HALEU UF 6. DOE is funding the contract incrementally with total funding to date of $33.0 million. The Company’s goal is to ultimately scale up production of HALEU, to meet the needs of new and existing reactors as well as national security and other U.S. government requirements for enriched uranium.
On February 9, 2023, the Company announced that construction and initial testing of the cascade and most of the support systems were complete. Before HALEU production can begin, the Company needs to finish construction of the remaining support systems, including a fissile materials storage area, to allow HALEU produced for the DOE to be stored onsite. On June 12, 2023, following the completion of its operational readiness reviews, the NRC issued a letter authorizing the Company to introduce uranium hexafluoride into the HALEU cascade of centrifuges. This is a critical milestone in advancing toward the production of HALEU and the final NRC approval required before starting enrichment operations.
The DOE is contemplating additional contracts to ensure availability of HALEU for the ARDP and for the advanced reactor market, in general, and received a $700 million appropriation from the Inflation Reduction Act as a first step in establishing a domestic supply chain for HALEU. On June 5, 2023, the DOE issued two draft RFPs seeking public comment, the first focusing on production of HALEU and the second focusing on deconversion of HALEU into different forms used to fabricate fuels needed by various advanced reactor developers. Centrus submitted comments in response to the draft RFPs and expects to submit a bid once a final RFP is issued, with the goal of expanding HALEU production capability at the Piketon site.
28

The war in Ukraine has contributed to a significant increase in market prices for enrichment and (along with proposals to limit imports of LEU from Russia) prompted calls for public and private investment in new, domestic uranium enrichment capacity not only for HALEU production but also for LEU production to support the existing fleet of reactors. As a result, Centrus is exploring the opportunity to deploy LEU enrichment alongside HALEU enrichment to meet a range of commercial and U.S. government requirements, which would bring cost synergies while increasing revenue opportunities. Our ability to deploy LEU and/or HALEU enrichment, and the timing, sequencing, and scale of those capabilities, is subject to the availability of funding, government subsidies, and/or off-take commitments.
The Energy Act of 2020, which was signed into law in December 2020, requires the DOE to establish a program to support the availability of HALEU for civilian domestic research, development, demonstration and commercial use. The Energy Act also reauthorizes DOE nuclear energy research, development demonstration and commercial application activities, including advanced fuel, research and development for advanced reactors, used fuel technologies, and integration of nuclear energy systems for both existing plants and advanced nuclear concepts. It also authorizes the funding of an ARDP which was launched by the DOE in May 2020. There are a number of advanced reactors under development that would use HALEU. Nine of the ten advanced reactor designs selected by the DOE for its ARDP will require HALEU. Various agencies of the U.S. government, including the U.S. Department of Defense, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the DOE are building microreactors which demonstrates the focus on both the development of microreactors and HALEU. We believe our investments in our enrichment technology and the HALEU demonstration will position the Company to meet the needs of government and commercial customers in the future as they deploy advanced reactors and next generation fuels, and also offers potential cost synergies for a return to LEU production.
We are also actively considering and expect to consider potential strategic transactions from time to time, which could involve, without limitation, acquisitions and/or dispositions of businesses or assets, joint ventures or investments in businesses, products or technologies or changes to our capital structure. For further discussion, refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Market Conditions and Outlook
The global nuclear industry outlook has begun to improve after many years of decline or stagnation. The development of advanced small and large-scale reactors, innovative advanced fuel types, and the commitment of nations to begin deploying nuclear power or to increase the share of nuclear power in their nations has created optimism in the market. Part of the momentum has resulted from efforts to lower greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change and improve health and safety.
According to the WNA, as of June 2023, there were over 50 reactors under construction worldwide, about a third of which are in China. The United States, with over 90 operating reactors, remains the world’s largest market for nuclear fuel. The nuclear industry in the United States, Japan, and Europe faces headwinds as well as opportunities. In the United States, the industry has been under pressure from the expansion of subsidized renewable energy as well as relatively low cost natural gas resources in recent years, although natural gas prices in the U.S. electricity sector tripled between 2020 and 2022 according to data from US EIA. Twelve U.S. reactors have prematurely shut down in the past ten years and others could shut down in the next few years. At the same time, one large reactor is currently under construction, and the DOE recently released a report outlining a pathway to deployment of approximately 200 gigawatts of additional capacity by 2050 which would triple the nuclear energy capacity in the United States.
29

The IEA projects that global nuclear energy generation will grow substantially in the next three decades. In the IEA’s 2022 World Energy Outlook, nuclear generation is forecasted to grow by 25 percent by 2030 and 46 percent by 2040 under the “Stated Policies” scenario. In the “Net Zero Emissions by 2050” scenario, nuclear generation would grow by 46 percent by 2030 and more than double by 2040. Notably, these estimates of the global growth of nuclear generation represent a significant increase from the IEA’s 2021 World Energy Outlook, reflecting improving expectations for the future prospects of nuclear energy.
As a consequence of the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, over 60 reactors in Japan and Germany were taken offline, and other countries curtailed or slowed their construction of new reactors or accelerated the retirement of existing plants. Ten reactors in Japan have restarted, an additional seven are expected to restart in 2023, and more of Japan’s reactors are expected to restart in subsequent years. Due to the war in Ukraine, the EU is encouraging its member countries to reconsider the planned early retirement of existing plants in order to reduce reliance on Russian gas imports.
In October 2020, the DOC reached an agreement with the Russian Federation on an extension of the RSA, a trade agreement that allows for Russian-origin nuclear fuel to be exported to the United States in limited quantities. The two parties agreed to extend the agreement through 2040 and to set aside a significant portion of the quota for Centrus’ shipments to the United States through 2028 to perform under our TENEX Supply Contract. This outcome allowed for sufficient quota for Centrus to continue serving its utility customers and support its investments in building new capacity.
30

On July 13, 2023, the Company and TerraPower, LLC (“TerraPower”) entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) to expand their collaboration aimed at establishing commercial-scale, domestic production capabilities for HALEU to fuel the Natrium TM reactor that TerraPower is building in Wyoming. Under this MOU, the Company and TerraPower will collaborate to ensure the Natrium demonstration reactor has access to HALEU at the milestones necessary to meet the project's 2030 operation date. Subject to a definitive agreement to be negotiated, Centrus will work toward scaling up production capacity with additional centrifuge cascades to meet TerraPower's fuel requirements.
The war in Ukraine has escalated tensions between Russia and the international community. As a result, the United States and other countries have imposed, and may continue imposing, additional sanctions and export controls against certain Russian products, services, organizations and/or individuals. While sanctions imposed to date do not preclude the import of Russian uranium products into the United States, it is possible that additional restrictions could be added in the future that would affect our ability to purchase and re-sell Russian uranium enrichment, or implement the TENEX Supply Contract, which could have a negative material impact on our business. Further, sanctions by the United States, Russia or other countries may impact our ability and cost to transport, export, import, take delivery, or make payments related to the LEU we purchase and may require us to increase purchases from non-Russian sources to the extent available. For example, due to restrictions imposed by Canada on the ability of Canadian Persons to provide ocean transportation services to Russia, a permit is required for our shipper, a Canadian company, to transport to the United States, the LEU that we procure under the TENEX Supply Contract. A Canadian permit issued to our shipper was recently extended to July 2024, but for so long as the sanctions remain in place, the shipper will require further extensions for us to continue to use the shipper for imports of this LEU beyond 2024.
In response to the war in Ukraine, there have been proposals in the U.S. Congress and elsewhere to ban imports of uranium products that could affect our ability to import LEU in one or more years under the TENEX Supply Contract, but none of these have been adopted as of the date of this filing.
The proposals represent a significant risk to our business because the TENEX Supply Contract is the major source of supply that the Company relies upon today to meet its delivery obligations and to earn the revenues needed to fund our advanced technology work. We are following these proposals closely and taking steps where possible to request changes that would improve prospects of securing a waiver. However, given that our ability to secure a timely waiver is not assured under any circumstances, we believe these proposals could pose a risk of significant harm to our business if enacted.
The expanding sanctions imposed by the United States and foreign governments on the mechanisms used to make payments to Russia and to obtain services including transportation have increased the risk that implementation of the TENEX Supply Contract may be disrupted in the future. Accordingly, we continue to monitor the situation closely and assess the potential impact of any new sanctions and how the impact on the Company might be mitigated.
For further discussion of these risks and uncertainties, refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Operating Results
Our revenues, operating results, and cash flows can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. Our Order Book in the LEU segment consists primarily of long-term, fixed commitment contracts, and we have visibility on a significant portion of our revenue for 2023-2027.
Given the current uncertainty and disruption in the market, due to among other things, the war in Ukraine, we are no longer providing guidance on our results of operations for 2023. Please see Forward Looking Statements at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
31

Our Order Book in the LEU segment extends to 2030. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our Order Book was approximately $1.0 billion. The Order Book is the estimated aggregate dollar amount of revenue for future SWU and uranium deliveries, and includes approximately $0.3 billion of deferred revenue and advances from customers as of June 30, 2023, whereby customers have made advance payments to be applied against future deliveries. No orders in our Order Book are considered at risk related to customer operations. However, these medium and long-term contracts are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including existing import laws and restrictions such as the RSA, which limits imports of Russian uranium products into the United States and applies to our sales using material procured under the TENEX Supply Contract, as well as the potential for additional sanctions and other restrictions in response to the evolving situation regarding the war in Ukraine.
Our future operating results are subject to uncertainties that could affect results either positively or negatively. Among the factors that could affect our results are the following:
•Armed conflicts, including the war in Ukraine, government actions and other events or third-party actions that disrupt supply chains, production, transportation, payments, and importation of nuclear materials or other critical supplies or services;
•The potential for sanctions and other measures affecting the importation, sales or purchases of SWU or uranium or goods or services required for the sale, purchase, or delivery of such SWU or uranium;
•The availability and terms of additional purchases or sales of SWU and uranium;
•Conditions in the LEU and energy markets, including pricing, demand, operations, government restrictions on imports, exports or investments, and regulations of our business and activities and those of our customers, suppliers, contractors, and subcontractors;
•Timing of customer orders, related deliveries, and purchases of LEU or LEU components;
•Costs of and future funding and demand for HALEU;
•Financial market conditions and other factors that may affect pension and benefit liabilities and the value of related assets;
•The outcome of legal proceedings and other contingencies;
•Potential use of cash for strategic or financial initiatives;
•Actions taken by customers and suppliers, including actions that might affect existing contracts;
•The government’s inability to satisfy its obligations under its agreements with the Company; and
•Market, international trade, and other conditions impacting Centrus’ customers and the industry.
For further discussion of these uncertainties, refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Revenue
We have two reportable segments: the LEU segment and the Technical Solutions segment.
Revenue from our LEU segment is derived primarily from the following:
•sales of the SWU component of LEU,
•sales of natural uranium hexafluoride, uranium concentrates or uranium conversion, and
•sales of enriched uranium product that include both the natural uranium hexafluoride and SWU components of LEU.
32

Our Technical Solutions segment reflects our technical, manufacturing, engineering, and operations services offered to public and private sector customers, including engineering and testing activities as well as technical and resource support currently being performed by the Company. This includes the HALEU Operation Contract and other contracts with public and private sector customers.
SWU and Uranium Sales
Revenue from our LEU segment accounted for approximately 89% of our total revenue for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The majority of our customers are domestic and international utilities that operate nuclear power plants, with international sales constituting approximately 41% of revenue from our LEU segment since 2021. Our agreements with electric utilities are primarily medium and long-term fixed-commitment contracts under which our customers are obligated to purchase a specified quantity of the SWU component of LEU from us. Contracts where we sell both the SWU and natural uranium hexafluoride component of LEU to utilities or where we sell natural uranium hexafluoride to utilities and other nuclear fuel related companies are generally shorter-term, fixed-commitment contracts. Individual customer orders for the SWU component of LEU fulfilled in the six months ended June 30, 2023 averaged approximately $5.6 million per order. As a result, a relatively small shift in the timing of customer orders for LEU may cause significant variability in our operating results year over year.
Utility customers, in general, have the option to make payment but defer receipt of SWU and uranium products purchased from Centrus beyond the contractual sale period, resulting in the deferral of costs and revenue recognition. Refer to Note 2, Revenue and Contracts with Customers, in the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.
Our financial performance over time can be affected significantly by changes in prices for SWU and natural uranium hexafluoride. Market prices for SWU and uranium significantly declined from 2011 until mid-2018, when they began to trend upward. More recently, market uncertainty in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine has driven SWU and uranium prices sharply higher. Since our sales Order Book includes contracts awarded to us in previous years, the average SWU price billed to customers typically lags published price indicators by several years. While some sales reflect the low prices prevalent in recent years, certain older contracts included in our sales Order Book have prices that are significantly above current market prices.
Recent proposals to severely limit or cut off supply of LEU from Russia have drawn attention to the potential for significant tightening of supplies in the market. Russian enrichment plants represent 46% of the world’s capacity, and Russian capacity significantly exceeds its domestic needs. According to data from the WNA, the annual enrichment requirements of reactors worldwide outside of Russia vastly exceeds the available supply of non-Russian enrichment, which potentially threatens the viability of some reactors, including those in the United States. While inventories and increased production at non-Russian plants may mitigate the shortfall, these options would not fully replace Russian supply. Deployment of new capacity ultimately could replace Russian enrichment but this capacity will take a number of years and significant funding from private and/or government sources to come on line.

Our contracts with customers are denominated primarily in U.S. dollars, and, although revenue has not been materially affected by changes in the foreign exchange rate of the U.S. dollar, we may have a competitive price advantage or disadvantage obtaining new contracts in a competitive bidding process depending upon the weakness or strength of the U.S. dollar. Under a customer contract that commenced deliveries in 2023, payments are denominated in euros and may be subject to exchange rate risk. Costs of our primary competitors are denominated in other currencies. Our contracts with suppliers are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. We have a SWU supply agreement, nominally commencing in 2023, with prices payable in a combination of U.S. dollars and euros, but with a contract-defined exchange rate.
On occasion, we will accept payment for SWU in the form of natural uranium hexafluoride. Revenue from the sale of SWU under such contracts is recognized at the time LEU is delivered and is based on the fair value of the natural uranium hexafluoride at contract inception, or as the quantity of natural uranium hexafluoride is finalized, if variable.
34

Cost of sales for SWU and uranium is based on the amount of SWU and uraniu m sold and delivered during the period and unit inventory costs. Unit inventory costs are determined using the average cost method. Changes in purchase costs have an effect on inventory costs and cost of sales. Cost of sales includes costs for inventory management at off-site licensed locations and also includes certain legacy costs related to former employees of the Portsmouth GDP and Paducah GD P.
Technical Solutions
Our Technical Solutions segment reflects our technical, manufacturing, engineering, and operations services offered to public and private sector customers, including the American Centrifuge engineering, procurement, construction, manufacturing, and operations services being performed under the HALEU Operation Contract. With our government and private sector customers, we seek to leverage our domestic enrichment technology and experience, engineering know-how, and precision manufacturing facility to assist customers with a range of engineering, design, and advanced manufacturing projects, including the production of fuel for next-generation nuclear reactors and the development of related facilities. We continue to invest in advanced technology because of the potential for future growth into new areas of business for the Company, while also preserving our unique workforce at our Technology and Manufacturing Center in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and our production facility near Piketon, Ohio.

Revenue
Revenue from the LEU segment was $87.6 million and $85.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of $2.1 million (or 2%). The increase was primarily due to the $39.5 million increase in uranium revenue for three months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by a $37.4 million decrease in SWU revenue. The decrease in SWU revenue was due to a 54% decrease in the average price of SWU sold, partially offset by a 21% increase in the volume of SWU sold.
Revenue from the Technical Solutions segment was $10.8 million and $13.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a decrease of $2.8 million (or 21%). The decrease was primarily related to the transition from the HALEU Demonstration Contract to the HALEU Operation Contract in late 2022. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, the HALEU Operation Contract generated $10.4 million in revenue, whereas the HALEU Demonstration Contract generated $12.1 million in revenue for the same period in 2022.
36

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the LEU segment was $60.8 million and $26.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of $34.7 million (or 133%). The increase was primarily due to a $34.6 million increase in uranium costs. SWU costs remained constant at $26.2 million, reflecting a 17% decrease in the average unit cost of SWU sold, offset by a 21% increase in the volume of SWU sold. Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 included $0.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for the revaluation of inventory loans.
Cost of sales for the Technical Solutions segment was $9.6 million and $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a decrease of $2.5 million (or 21%). The decrease was related to a reduction in costs of approximately $10.0 million associated with the HALEU Demonstration Contract and $1.7 million associated with other contracts, partially offset by $9.1 million of costs incurred for the HALEU Operation Contract. For details on HALEU Demonstration Contract and HALEU Operation Contract accounting, refer to “Technical Solutions Segment” above.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the LEU segment was $26.8 million and $59.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a decrease of $32.6 million (or 55%). The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was due primarily to the specific contract and pricing mix of SWU contracts and the timing of their deliveries quarter over quarter. This was reflected by a decrease in the average profit margin per SWU, partially offset by an increase in the volume of SWU sold and an increase in uranium gross profit.
Gross profit for the Technical Solutions segment was $1.2 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a decrease of $0.3 million (or 20%).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had a consolidated cash and cash equivalents balance of $212.5 million. In addition, there was $29.8 million of restricted cash related to three inventory loans, which required a cash deposit into an escrow fund. See Note 3, Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company anticipates having adequate liquidity to support our business operations for at least the next 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report. Our view of liquidity is dependent on, among other things, conditions affecting our operations, including market, international trade restrictions, sanctions and other conditions, the level of expenditures and government funding for our services contracts and the timing of customer payments. Liquidity requirements for our existing operations are affected primarily by the timing and amount of customer sales and our inventory purchases.
The Company believes its Order Book in our LEU segment is a source of stability for our liquidity position. Subject to market conditions, we see the potential for growing uncommitted demand for LEU during the next few years with accelerated open demand in 2025 and beyond.
Cash resources and net sales proceeds from our LEU segment fund technology costs that are outside of our customer contracts in the Technical Solutions segment and general corporate expenses, including cash interest payments on our debt. We believe our investment in advanced U.S. uranium enrichment technology will position the Company to meet the needs of our customers as they deploy advanced reactors and next generation fuels. We signed the three-year HALEU Demonstration Contract with DOE in October 2019. Under the HALEU Demonstration Contract, the Company contributed its required contribution through November 30, 2021. The program began May 31, 2019, when Centrus and DOE signed a preliminary letter agreement that allowed work to begin while the full contract was being finalized. Our cost-share HALEU Demonstration Contract period of performance ended in November 2022.
On November 10, 2022, the Company was awarded the HALEU Operation Contract. The HALEU Operation Contract provides for a 50/50 cost share contract for Phase 1 of the base contract to complete the cascade, begin operations and complete the initial, small quantity demonstration HALEU. Phase 2 includes continued operations and maintenance on a cost-plus-incentive-fee basis. Finally, the HALEU Operation Contract includes options for the government to unilaterally extend performance for up to an additional nine years comprised of three options of three years each, also on a cost-plus-incentive-fee basis. The Company’s goal is to modularly scale up the facility as demand for HALEU grows in the commercial and government sectors, subject to the availability of funding and/or contracts to purchase the output of the plant.
Although the Company believes demand for HALEU will emerge over the next several years, there are no guarantees about whether or when government or commercial demand for HALEU will materialize, and there are a number of technical, regulatory, and economic hurdles that must be overcome for these fuels and reactors that will use these fuels to come to the market. For further discussion, refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
If funding by the U.S. Government of gas centrifuge technology is reduced or discontinued, or we are not awarded a future DOE contract to continue to operate the cascade, such actions may have a material adverse impact on our ability to deploy the American Centrifuge technology and on our liquidity.
Capital expenditures of approximately $1.0 million are anticipated over the next 12 months.

We are also actively considering and expect to consider potential strategic transactions from time to time, which at any given time may be in various stages of discussion diligence, or negotiation. These could involve, without limitation, acquisitions and/or dispositions of businesses or assets, joint ventures or investments in businesses, products or technologies or changes to our capital structure. In connection with any such transaction, we would seek to satisfy these needs through a combination of working capital, cash generated from operations or additional debt or equity financing.
The change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash from our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are as follows on a summarized basis (in millions):

| Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | 15.2 |  |  | $ | (56.2) |
Cash used in investing activities | (0.7) |  |  | (0.5) |
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities | 18.1 |  |  | (3.2) |
Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 32.6 |  |  | $ | (59.9) |

Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $15.2 million. The net increase was primarily due to approximately $197.0 million in cash collected from customers, investment income, and reimbursements for postretirement health and life benefits paid by the Company. These cash inflows were partially offset by approximately $182.0 million of disbursements for operations, of which $144.0 million relates to payments for LEU inventory deliveries and cash outflows for the Technical Solutions segment, with the remaining disbursements including corporate administration, benefits claims, and advance technology costs.
In the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $56.2 million. The net decrease was due to an increase in payments made to suppliers, as reflected by the decrease in payables under inventory purchase agreements of $37.9 million and an increase in inventories of $10.7 million. Cash used in operations was also impacted by a decrease in cash collected from customers, which resulted from the timing of customer shipments and related contract terms, partially reflected in the net decrease in deferred revenue and advances from customers, net of deferred costs, of $30.6 million.
Investing Activities
Capital expenditures were $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Financing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash of $23.2 million was provided from the net proceeds related to the issuance of 722,568 shares of Class A Common Stock under an ATM offering. For both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, payments of $3.1 million of interest classified as debt are classified as a financing activity. Refer to Note 6, Debt, of the Consolidated Financial Statements regarding the accounting for the 8.25% Notes maturing in February 2027.

Working Capital
The following table summarizes the Company’s working capital (in millions):

| June 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 212.5 |  |  | $ | 179.9 |
Accounts receivable | 9.0 |  |  | 38.1 |
Inventories, net | 215.8 |  |  | 148.4 |
Current debt | (6.1) |  |  | (6.1) |
Deferred revenue and advances from customers, net of deferred costs | (158.3) |  |  | (137.5) |
Other current assets and liabilities, net | (75.7) |  |  | (84.9) |
Working capital | $ | 197.2 |  |  | $ | 137.9 |

We are managing our working capital to seek to improve the long-term value of our LEU and Technical Solutions businesses and are planning to continue funding the Company’s qualified pension plans because we believe these uses of working capital are in the best interest of all stakeholders. We expect that any other uses of working capital will be undertaken in light of these strategic priorities and will be based on the Company’s determination as to the relative strength of its operating performance and prospects, financial position, and expected liquidity requirements. In addition, we expect that any such other uses of working capital will be subject to compliance with contractual restrictions to which the Company and its subsidiaries are subject, including the terms and conditions of our 8.25% Notes. We continually evaluate alternatives to manage our capital structure, and may opportunistically repurchase, exchange, or redeem Company securities.
Common Stock Issuance
The Company sold an aggregate of 722,568 shares of its Class A Common Stock at the market price for a total of $24.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023. After expenses and commissions paid to the agents, the Company’s proceeds totaled $23.4 million. Additionally, the Company recorded direct costs of $0.2 million related to the issuance. The shares of Class A Common Stock were issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-239242), which became effective on August 5, 2020, and two prospectus supplements dated December 31, 2020 and December 5, 2022, respectively. The Company has used and/or intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, capital expenditures, investment in technology development and deployment, repayment of indebtedness, potential acquisitions and other business opportunities. There were no sales of Class A Common Stock through the ATM offering in the three months ended June 30, 2023 or the six months ended June 30, 2022.
2023 Shelf Registration
The Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-272984) with the SEC on June 28, 2023, which became effective on July 10, 2023. Pursuant to this shelf registration statement, the Company may offer and sell up to $200 million in securities, in aggregate. The Company retains broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered. Unless otherwise specified in any prospectus supplement, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of our securities offered under this prospectus for working capital and general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, capital expenditures, working capital, repayment of indebtedness, potential acquisitions and other business opportunities. Pending any specific application, we may initially invest funds in short-term marketable securities or apply them to the reduction of indebtedness.

Rights Agreement
On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to the Rights Agreement, which amends the Rights Agreement, dated as of April 6, 2016 , by and among the Company, and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc., as rights agent, as amended by (i) the First Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of February 14, 2017, (ii) the Second Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of April 3, 2019, (iii) the Third Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of April 13, 2020, and (iv) the Fourth Amendment to the Rights Agreement dated as of June 16, 2021.
The Fifth Amendment to the Rights Agreement (i) increases the purchase price for each one one-thousandth (1/1000th) of a share of the Company’s Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, from $18.00 to $160.38; and (ii) extends the Final Expiration Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) from June 30, 2023 to June 30, 2026.
The Fifth Amendment was not adopted as a result of, or in response to, any effort to acquire control of the Company.

There is currently no commercial enrichment facility producing LEU using DOE centrifuge technology. We are continuing to advance our U.S. centrifuge technology that has evolved from DOE inventions at specialized facilities in Oak Ridge with a view to deploying a commercial enrichment facility over the long term once market conditions recover.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than our SWU purchase commitments and the license agreement with DOE relating to the American Centrifuge technology, there were no material off-balance sheet arrangements at June 30, 2023.
