**Item 8.01 Other Events**

On August 25, 2025, Centrus Energy Corp. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that it had signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power ("KHNP") and POSCO International to explore potential investment to support expansion of the Company's uranium enrichment plant in Piketon, Ohio. The MOU also calls for the companies to explore additional opportunities for cooperation, such as additional supply agreements for low enriched uranium ("LEU") and high-assay, low-enriched uranium for next generation reactors. The signing was attended by U.S. and Republic of Korea government officials.

The press release also noted that KHNP and the Company separately agreed to a higher supply volume of LEU under an existing supply contract. The entire supply commitment, including the expanded volume, is contingent upon the Company receiving the necessary federal funding to build new LEU production capacity.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

## Exhibit 99.1

![](ex991_centruskhnppicrele001.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: August 25, 2025 Centrus Signs Agreement with KHNP and POSCO International for Potential Investment in American Uranium Enrichment Provides Further Validation of and Market Demand for Centrus' Technology Provides a Framework for Future Private Investments to Support Enrichment Expansion BETHESDA, MD – Centrus Energy (NYSE American: LEU) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) and POSCO International to explore potential investment to support expansion of Centrus' uranium enrichment plant in Piketon, Ohio. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and Korea's Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Kim Jung-kwan attended the signing of the agreement, which is aimed at deepening U.S.-Korea cooperation on civilian nuclear energy. Centrus and KHNP also agreed to an increase in the supply volume of enriched uranium under the contract they signed in February 2025. "We are proud to be strengthening our relationship with our partners in Korea in support of our work to restore America's ability to enrich uranium at a large scale," said Centrus President and CEO Amir Vexler. "This agreement reflects strong demand for a U.S.-owned uranium enrichment capability and another potential avenue for private investment capital to bring added supply diversity and competition to the marketplace – and meet Korea's need for affordable, reliable fuel supplies for both new and existing reactors." Centrus and KHNP finalized a supply contract in February 2025 to support construction of new uranium enrichment capacity at Centrus' American Centrifuge Plant in Ohio. The two companies today agreed to a higher supply volume of Low-Enriched Uranium (LEU) under that contract. The entire supply commitment, including the expanded volumes, is contingent upon Centrus receiving the necessary federal funding to build the new LEU production capacity. Centrus is competing for funding from the U.S. Department of Energy to expand U.S. enrichment capacity. This federal investment is crucial to achieving economies of scale
