证券研究报告 海外 行业定期报告 请务必仔细阅读正文之后的评级说明和重要声明 海外 AI:本周 KAP 公布 2026 年生产战略,将主动减产。公司计划 2026 年在名义产量 32777 吨 U3O8(约 8500 万磅 U3O8)的基础上削减约 10%,产量将降至 29697 吨(约 7700 万磅)U3O8。这一调整主要来自 JV Budenovskoye 项目的产能下调。管理层明确表示,当前市场供需尚未充分匹配,公司选择通过减产来维持价格 稳定和市场平衡,同时确保履行长期合同下的交付义务。公司保持稳健的库存状况和严谨的销售策略,确保所有 交付义务均能全额履行,同时保持灵活性,以快速响应市场发展。我们认为铀板块在近期因美俄关系变化带来短 期回调,但中长期逻辑依旧坚实:全球核能扩张趋势明确,Kazatomprom 等龙头的减产举措有助于巩固供需格 局并托底铀价。值得关注的是,即将召开的世界核能大会或将成为行业重要催化剂,市场可能借此契机重新聚焦 于核能在能源转型中的战略地位,以及铀资源在未来十年供给缺口中的稀缺价值。 板块行情回顾:本周(2025/8/18 至 2025/8/22)港美科技股先跌后涨。本周 ...
