"The Company is in the process of demonstrating its next-generation American Centrifuge uranium enrichment technology, which is based on U.S. centrifuge technology, a proven, workable technology developed by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) from 1960 through the mid-1980s.

"Despite the disappointing decision, USU moved forward with its American Centrifuge demonstration activities, evaluating how best to configure the project on a go-forward basis, and seeking to reduce technical and financial risk for the project. With DOE's decision, the Company was forced to begin demobilizing the project in August, resulting to 1,000 job losses over the past six weeks."
