Key Fund Facts1

Ordinary Share and NAV Performance2

Commentary3

After the previous month's price jump, the spot U3O8 price made a modest further gain in

October, closing the month up 1.9% at $74.5/lb. While the uranium market price continued to

rise, the Fund NAV slipped marginally, consolidating 1% in October versus a sterling decline of 2.4% registered by the Solactive Uranium Pure Play Index. The funds NAV discount widened slightly over the month, close to the highest in 7 years, despite the strong performance and positive sector fundamentals. The fund bought back shares which was accretive to the NAV per share.

Strong performance contributions were made by US in-situ project developers, UEC and Ur-Energy which rose 22% and 14% respectively in sterling terms. The pull-back by Paladin and Iso Energy largely offset these gains with both stocks retracing 15% in sterling terms, giving back nearly half their prior month increases. Explorer Iso Energy's decline followed an all-share acquisition of Uranium Consolidated, which owns a portfolio of development assets, at the end of September and the subsequent equity issue to raise proceeds to pursue a larger exploration programme on its expanded portfolio. The Fund participated in the placing by Iso Energy, alongside the group's other largest shareholders NexGen, Energy Fuels and Mega Uranium.

Cameco's Q3 results showed that the group achieved a sales price of US$52.57/lb during the period, versus spot prices which remained above $55/lb. Following the rise in spot uranium prices, which exceeded US$70/lb at the end of the quarter, the group updated its expectations for its full year realised price of C$63.50/lb, or approximately US$47/lb when translated using the exchange rate at end-September. This is indicative of the drag effect of prior forward sales contract terms on its uranium mining revenues. Cameco's guidance for full year uranium deliveries was maintained at between 31-33Mlbs U3O8, of which around 29Mlbs per annum is already contracted for the five years.

Elsewhere, French state-owned uranium fuel supplier Orano announced plans to expand

capacity at its Tricastin processing facility. An investment of $1.8bn is being made to increase capacity at the Georges Besse II enrichment plant by more than 30% in recognition of western government's desire to reduce the risk of fuel disruption given Russia's dominant global position in this area. In addition, the European Council reached a tentative agreement to reform an EU electricity price mechanism. This may remove the requirement for France's state-owned utility EDF to sell over a third of its nuclear energy production at below market prices, which should now increase the company's motivation to expedite repairs and reconnect the remaining offline reactors to the grid.
