An announcement from UR-Energy ( (URG) ) is now available.

Ur-Energy reported strong operational momentum in 2025, with uranium production at its Lost Creek project climbing 65% to 410,440 pounds and improving plant performance cutting cash costs per pound. The company also expanded its workforce by 55% to 157 employees to support ramp-up at Lost Creek, commissioning at Shirley Basin and new exploration work in 2026.

Development at Shirley Basin advanced toward commissioning, with wellfield construction largely in place and the project fully staffed pending remaining regulatory approvals. Ur-Energy strengthened its balance sheet with higher cash reserves, a $120 million convertible notes issue, and nearly all outstanding warrants exercised, while updated technical work increased its combined uranium resource base and extended Lost Creek’s estimated mine life, supporting longer-term growth potential.

The most recent analyst rating on (URG) stock is a Hold with a $2.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on UR-Energy stock, see the URG Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on URG Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, URG is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak fundamentals—declining TTM revenue, widening losses, and continued negative operating/free cash flow—despite a low-leverage balance sheet. Technicals are supportive of an uptrend but appear overextended, adding pullback risk. Valuation is difficult to support given negative earnings and no dividend yield data.
