## Exhibit 99.1

![](exhibit_991x20250625xhal001.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 25, 2025 Centrus Achieves Key Production Milestone with Delivery of 900 Kilograms of HALEU to the Department of Energy BETHESDA, Md. – Centrus Energy (NYSE American: LEU) today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, the American Centrifuge Operating, LLC, has produced and delivered 900 kilograms of High-Assay, Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) to the U.S. Department of Energy, reaching a critical milestone as the company pioneers first-of-a-kind HALEU production. With the successful production and delivery of the 900 kilograms, Centrus has achieved the production target for Phase II of its contract with the Department and to date has produced and delivered over 920 kilograms of HALEU to the Department under our contract with the Department. "Achievement of this milestone further demonstrates the ability of our technology to deliver results for our customers and for the nation," said Centrus Energy President and CEO Amir Vexler. "As the only source of HALEU enrichment in the Western world, our product is urgently needed to power the next generation of reactors. As we embark on the next phase of our HALEU production contract for the Department of Energy, we remain focused on the ultimate goal of expanding our capacity in Ohio so that we can meet the full range of America's commercial and national security requirements for HALEU as well as Low-Enriched Uranium for the existing reactor fleet." Centrus now proceeds to HALEU enrichment production under Phase III of our contract with the Department. On June 20, 2025, Centrus announced that it had secured a contract extension from the Department for an additional year of production through June 30, 2026 as part of Phase III of the contract. Phase III includes options for up to eight years of additional production beyond June 30, 2026; these options are at the Department's sole discretion and subject to the availability of appropriations. Centrus initiated its contract with the Department in 2019 and then continued in 2022 with a competitively-awarded, three-phase contract. Centrus finished Phase I in 2023 when it brought its cascade of advanced centrifuges into production in Piketon, Ohio, delivering an initial 20

kilograms of product to the Department. Phase II of the contract called for Centrus to produce 900 kilograms of HALEU by June 30, 2025. The HALEU produced under this contract belongs to the Department and can be used to advance key national priorities like enabling the demonstration and commercialization of HALEU-fueled advanced reactors. About Centrus Centrus Energy is a trusted American supplier of nuclear fuel and services for the nuclear power industry, helping meet the growing need for clean, affordable, carbon-free energy.
