Production Suspension
Cameco has reported that their joint venture, JV Inkai, has suspended production as of January 1, 2025. This decision was directed by National Atomic Company Kazatomprom, the controlling partner, to avoid potential violations of Kazakhstan legislation. The halt in operations may create significant supply implications in the uranium market.

Regulatory Impact
On December 31, 2024, JV Inkai informed Cameco that it had not received an extension for submitting updated Project for Uranium Deposit Development documentation. This regulatory hurdle suggests possible future delays or complications in resuming production, potentially impacting Cameco's revenue and stock valuation.
