Caution about forward-looking information
Article content
This news release includes statements and information about our expectations for the future, which we refer to as forward-looking information. Forward-looking information is based on our current views, which can change significantly, and actual results and events may be significantly different from what we currently expect. The forward-looking information in this news release relates to our 2026 production outlook for Cigar Lake. Material risks that could lead to different results include the possibility that our 2026 production outlook could be impacted if there is a further suspension of operations at Cigar Lake, or if production is adversely impacted for other reasons. In presenting this forward-looking information, we have made assumptions which may prove incorrect, including assumptions regarding the ability of Cigar Lake to continue its operations without further suspension, and otherwise to meet our production expectations. Please also see our most recent annual information form, and our most recent annual and quarterly management’s discussion and analysis, for a discussion of other risks that could impact our Cigar Lake 2026 production outlook. Forward-looking information is designed to help you understand management’s current views of our near-term and longer-term prospects, and it may not be appropriate for other purposes. We will not necessarily update this information unless we are required to by securities laws.
