Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSE MKT: UEC) is a U.S.-based miner that explores, extracts, and processes uranium and titanium concentrates across assets in the United States, Canada, and Paraguay. The firm, originally incorporated as Carlin Gold Inc. in 2003, rebranded to its current name in 2005 and is headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas.
As of the latest quarter (Q4 2025), UEC reported a net cash position of $115 million and produced 2,300 pounds of U₃O₈, reflecting a 12% increase YoY driven by higher throughput at its Palangana and Goliad projects. The company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) rose to $8.4 million, supported by a sustained uranium spot price averaging $55 per pound and renewed U.S. Department of Energy funding for domestic fuel supply security. A key sector driver remains the global push for clean-energy baseload power, with nuclear capacity additions projected to grow 7% annually through 2030, bolstering long-term demand for uranium.
