Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. Weighted-average prices are not adjusted for inflation. UF₆ is uranium hexafluoride. The natural UF₆ and enriched UF₆ quantity represents only the U₃O₈ equivalent uranium-component quantity specified in the contract for each delivery of natural UF₆ and enriched UF₆. The natural UF₆ and enriched UF₆ weighted-average price represent only the U₃O₈ equivalent uranium-component price specified in the contract for each delivery of natural UF₆ and enriched UF₆, and does not include the conversion service and enrichment service components.
