Centrus Energy reported quarterly earnings of $1.41 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a $0.42 per-share loss. Earnings were $0.19 per share in the year-ago quarter.
Why it matters — The earnings beat and year-over-year increase are relevant to investors tracking Centrus Energy’s quarterly results.
Zacks Investment Research says Centrus Energy’s Q3 headline figures offer insight into its performance for the quarter ended September 2026, and frames a comparison of key metrics with Wall Street estimates and year-ago actuals.
Why it matters — The comparison provides LEU watchers context for assessing quarterly performance against estimates and the prior-year period.
Centrus reported Q3 2026 revenue of $55.5 million, versus $74.9 million a year earlier, and GAAP net income of $31.6 million, compared with $3.9 million. Non-GAAP adjusted results shifted to a $9.4 million loss from $5.2 million in adjusted net income; the company also reported a $5.4 billion contingent LEU and HALEU backlog and progress on centrifuge manufacturing, shipments, supply-chain contracts, and construction documentation.
Why it matters — The results highlight contrasting GAAP and adjusted earnings alongside an expanded contingent enrichment backlog and progress on operational milestones.
Centrus acquired Westerman for $116 million, bringing critical nuclear manufacturing capabilities in-house. The move is framed as supporting its position as a U.S. nuclear fuel supplier amid restrictions on Russian uranium imports.
Why it matters — LEU watchers may note the acquisition is intended to reduce supply-chain risks and production costs.
Zacks Investment Research says five stocks, including Centrus Energy (LEU), are worth watching for their growth potential despite a weak near-term outlook for the non-ferrous metals mining industry.

The 20 Wall Street analysts covering Centrus Energy Corp. have a median 12-month price target of $188, with estimates ranging from $115 to $337. These are third-party analyst estimates, not Ticker Nerd forecasts, and they are frequently wrong.
Of the 20 analysts covering Centrus Energy Corp., 12 rate it a Buy, 8 a Hold and 0 a Sell. Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model ranks Centrus Energy Corp. 9 out of 100 across roughly 4,600 US stocks as at 4 Nov 2026. None of this is personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances.
As at 4 Nov 2026, Centrus Energy Corp. ranks 9 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Revisions (71 of 100).

What the data says: the median 12-month target from 20 analysts implies +102.8% from the last close, and Ticker Nerd's factor model ranks Centrus Energy Corp. 9 out of 100 as at 4 Nov 2026. Analyst targets are third-party estimates and frequently wrong; none of this is personal advice.
No analyst covering Centrus Energy Corp. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for LEU are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $115 to $337 over the next 12 months.
