ENERGY FUELS INC represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
ENERGY FUELS INC receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 45.8/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2669 out of 7,333 stocks. UUUU's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
UUUU's quality score of 30/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -10.9% (sector avg: 4.3%), gross margins of 22.0% (sector avg: 45.8%), net margins of -267.1% (sector avg: 5.8%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
With a value score of 33/100, UUUU appears somewhat expensive relative to its fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/B ratio of 7.27x. Investors paying a premium here are likely betting on above-average growth or margin expansion to justify current prices.
ENERGY FUELS INC's investment score of 19/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 103.1% vs. a sector average of 0.1% and a return on assets of -10.2% (sector: 3.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
UUUU shows strong momentum characteristics with a score of 87/100. The stock has been trending above key moving averages, indicating solid demand from institutional buyers. Revenue growth stands at 103.1% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.02 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. This level of momentum typically signals sustained investor confidence and favorable near-term price action.
ENERGY FUELS INC registers a low stability score of 23/100, indicating high volatility and potentially stressed financial conditions. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.02 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 7.00x (sector avg: 0.3x). Stocks at this level carry elevated capital loss risk and may be unsuitable for conservative portfolios without careful risk management.
UUUU carries a short interest score of 64/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 7.00x). At $3.5B market cap (mid-cap), ENERGY FUELS INC offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
ENERGY FUELS INC is a mid-cap company in the Mining sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2669 of 7,333 overall (64th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -10.9% trailing the 4.3% sector median and operating margins of -305.3% below the 7.6% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Mining peers.
While UUUU currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the MINING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., February 24, 2026--Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) ("Clean Energy" or the "Company") today announced its operating results for the fourth quarter of 2025 and year ended December 31, 2025.
Energy Fuels (UUUU) stock fell 7% on January 26, 2026, despite positive uranium market conditions. Uranium prices hit their highest level since May 2024 at $88.40/lb, and South Korea announced plans to build two new nuclear plants. However, the stock decline appears disconnected from fundamentals, with analysts projecting the company will trade at 55x forward 2028 earnings despite expected revenue growth and profitability improvements.
MP heads into Q4 earnings with record NdPr output and a DoW deal, but halted China shipments and rising costs may cloud results.

Meta Platforms announced over 6 gigawatts of nuclear power agreements, including a 20-year deal with Vistra for 2.6 gigawatts and a partnership with Oklo for 1.2 gigawatts of advanced nuclear capacity. The announcement triggered a sector-wide rally as investors view Big Tech's nuclear commitments as proof of concept for next-generation deployments and a critical infrastructure component for AI energy demands.

While Energy Fuels Inc. outperformed Cameco in 2025 with 183% returns, Cameco is the stronger long-term uranium investment. Cameco has delivered 600% returns over five years versus Energy Fuels' 350%, produces significantly more uranium (27 million vs. 158,400 pounds in 2024), and maintains a stronger balance sheet with $2.28 billion in revenue versus Energy Fuels' $38.82 million. Cameco's ownership stake in Westinghouse and focus on advanced nuclear reactors positions it better for the growing nuclear energy sector.
