Yellow Cake plc (LSE:YCA) has reported a post-tax loss of USD 469.2 million for the financial year ending 31 March 2025, largely attributed to a 26% decline in the uranium spot price. This downturn significantly impacted the fair value of the company’s uranium holdings, which form the core of its investment strategy. Despite the challenging year, Yellow Cake maintains a positive long-term outlook, supported by rising global demand for nuclear energy and renewed momentum behind reactor restarts and new builds in multiple countries.
The company currently holds 21.68 million pounds of U₃O₈, equivalent to roughly 14% of global uranium production in 2024. With uranium markets expected to tighten further, Yellow Cake is strategically positioned to benefit from potential supply constraints, though geopolitical risks and ongoing supply chain pressures remain key concerns.
About Yellow Cake plc
Headquartered in Jersey and listed on the London Stock Exchange, Yellow Cake plc provides investors with direct exposure to movements in the uranium spot price through its strategy of purchasing and storing physical triuranium octoxide (U₃O₈). The company’s goal is to deliver shareholder value through the appreciation of its uranium assets and other uranium-focused opportunities. A key competitive advantage is its long-term Framework Agreement with Kazatomprom, the world’s largest uranium producer, securing access to reliable supply for up to ten years.
