Cameco Reports Third Quarter Earnings

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, November 2, 2009

Cameco Corporation (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) today reported third quarter 2009 net earnings of $172 million ($0.44 per share diluted), $37 million higher than net earnings of $135 million ($0.39 per share diluted) recorded in the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, net earnings were $501 million ($1.29 per share diluted), $82 million higher than net earnings of $419 million ($1.21 per share diluted) recorded in the first nine months of 2008.

Third quarter 2009 adjusted net earnings¹ of $104 million ($0.26 per share adjusted and diluted) were 18% lower than in the third quarter of 2008. Adjusted net earnings¹ for the first nine months of 2009 were $334 million ($0.86 per share adjusted and diluted), 19% lower than in 2008 due to lower earnings in the uranium and gold businesses, partially offset by higher results in the fuel services and electricity businesses.

“Cameco remains on target for another strong year in revenue and cash flow,” said Cameco president and CEO Jerry Grandey. “Our focus on performance has given Cameco the capacity to respond to the positive long-term fundamentals we see in our business — supplying uranium fuel to an energy-hungry world where nuclear is increasingly seen as the leading, credible option for clean energy generation.”

In our uranium business, third quarter profits were in line with our quarterly delivery expectations communicated in last quarter’s MD&A. Profits for both the third quarter and the first nine months of 2009 continue to be adversely affected by the higher unit cost of product and services sold. Consistent with prior disclosure, our unit cost of product and services sold is still expected to be 20% to 25% higher when compared to 2008. The expected cost of produced material remains unchanged from the last two quarterly reports. The increase in the unit cost of product and services sold is largely attributable to uranium purchases at prices substantially higher than our costs of production to support our sales activities, including higher trading volumes.

Our gold business was impacted by lower gold production and higher operating costs during the quarter and for the first nine months of the year.


¹		Net earnings for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009 have been adjusted to exclude a number of items. Adjusted net earnings is a non-GAAP measure. For a description see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 9.

In our electricity business, an increase in the realized price led to stronger results in the quarter and for the first nine months of the year. The increase was due largely to revenue recognized by BPLP under its agreement with the Ontario Power Authority (OPA). In addition, an increase in generation contributed to the improved results for the first nine months.

Results in our fuel services business were positively impacted by lower operating costs during the quarter and for the first nine months of the year. In addition, higher revenues in the first nine months of the year as a result of an increase in the average realized price for fuel services products contributed to the stronger yearly results.

Uranium Results

For the third quarter of 2009, revenue from our uranium business was lower by $67 million at $329 million due to a 15% decrease in reported sales volumes and a 2% decrease in the realized selling price (in Canadian dollars). The decrease in the average realized price was related to lower realized prices under market-related and fixed-price contracts. A more favourable foreign exchange rate partially mitigated the Canadian dollar decline.

The timing of deliveries of uranium products within a calendar year is at the discretion of customers. Therefore, our quarterly delivery patterns can vary significantly.

Our total cost of products and services sold, including depreciation, depletion and reclamation (DD&R), decreased to $260 million in the third quarter of 2009 from $275 million in the third quarter of 2008 due to the 15% decrease in sales volume, partially offset by a 12% increase in the unit cost of product and services sold. The unit cost of product and services sold for the third quarter continued to be negatively impacted by recent purchases at near market prices.

For the first nine months of 2009, revenue from our uranium business increased by $46 million to $1,108 million due to a 3% increase in the realized selling price (in Canadian dollars) and a 1% increase in reported sales volumes.

Our total cost of products and services sold, including DD&R, increased to $752 million in the first nine months of 2009 from $589 million in 2008 due primarily to a 26% increase in the unit cost of product and services sold. The unit cost of product and services sold was negatively impacted by the carryover effect of lower production in 2008, recent purchases at near market prices, higher royalties and increased input costs.

Fuel Services Results

In the third quarter of 2009, revenue from our fuel services business was $50 million, $19 million lower compared to the same period in 2008 due to a 24% decrease in reported sales volumes and a 3% decline in the average realized price for fuel services products.

Total cost of products and services sold, including DD&R, decreased to $46 million in the third quarter from $72 million for the same period in 2008. The cost of products sold in 2008 was impacted by the curtailment of production from the Port Hope UF₆conversion plant. In the third quarter of 2008, the plant was shutdown to allow for the clean up of contaminated soil and all operating costs associated with the UF₆conversion plant were expensed as incurred ($15 million). In 2009, the plant was operational throughout the third quarter and operating costs were allocated to inventory.

In the first nine months of 2009, revenue from our fuel services business was $186 million, an increase of $4 million compared to the same period in 2008 due to an 18% increase in the average realized price for fuel services products, primarily UF₆conversion, partially offset by a 13% decline in sales volumes. The timing of deliveries of fuel services within a calendar year is at the discretion of customers. Therefore, our quarterly delivery patterns can vary significantly.

Total cost of products and services sold, including DD&R, decreased to $149 million in the first nine months of 2009 from $188 million for the same period in 2008. The cost of products sold in both 2009 and 2008 was impacted by the curtailment of production from the Port Hope UF₆conversion plant. In the first half of 2009, the plant was shutdown due to the unavailability of hydrofluoric acid (HF), while in 2008 operations were suspended to allow for the clean up of contaminated soil. All operating costs associated with the UF₆conversion plant were expensed as incurred in the first half of 2009 ($18 million) and the first nine months of 2008 ($43 million).

Our Port Hope conversion services, fuel manufacturing production and SFL supply totalled 4.1 million kgU in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 1.8 million kgU in the third quarter of 2008. Port Hope conversion services, fuel manufacturing production and SFL supply was 8.4 million kgU for the first nine months of 2009 compared to 5.7 million kgU for the same period in 2008.

At our Blind River refinery, we produced 1.9 million kgU in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 1.1 million kgU for the third quarter of 2008. Total UO₃ production for the first nine months of 2009 was 9.0 million kgU compared to 7.2 million kgU in the first nine months of 2008.

NUCLEAR ELECTRICITY GENERATION

Cameco owns 31.6% of the Bruce Power Limited Partnership (BPLP).

During the third quarter, our pre-tax earnings from BPLP amounted to $78 million compared to $61 million for the same period in 2008. This increase in 2009 was due to the increased revenue, partially offset by higher operating costs.

BPLP achieved an adjusted capacity factor of 97% in the third quarter, which includes actual generation and deemed generation of 0.8 TWh. The deemed generation resulted from the B units having their power output reduced in response to dispatch orders from the market operator driven by periods of excess baseload generation in Ontario. Excluding deemed generation, the capacity factor was 86% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 94% in the same period of 2008. During the third quarter of 2009, BPLP’s units generated 6.2 TWh of electricity compared to 6.8 TWh for the same period in 2008.

The realized price, which reflects spot sales, revenue recognized under BPLP’s agreement with the OPA and financial contract revenue, averaged $66 per MWh in the quarter, 12% higher than the realized price for the third quarter of 2008. The increase is largely the result of recognizing revenue of $205 million (our share, $65 million) under the agreement with the OPA during the quarter. During the quarter, the Ontario electricity spot price averaged $22 per MWh compared to $51 per MWh in the third quarter of 2008. Electricity prices in the Ontario market have been trending lower due primarily to reduced industrial demand, increased generation and low fossil fuel prices.

Our pre-tax earnings from BPLP for the first nine months of 2009 amounted to $162 million compared to $86 million in the same period of 2008. The increase is attributable to higher revenues.

For the first nine months of the year, BPLP’s units achieved an adjusted capacity factor of 90%, which includes actual generation and deemed generation of 0.8 TWh. Excluding deemed generation, the capacity factor was 86% compared with 82% in the same period last year. These units produced 18.2 TWh during the first nine months of 2009, an increase of 0.5 TWh over the same period last year. The increase is due primarily to fewer outage days in 2009 compared to 2008.

The realized price, which reflects spot sales, revenue recognized under BPLP’s agreement with the OPA and financial contract revenue, averaged $64 per MWh for the first nine months of the year, 12% higher than the realized price in the same period last year. The increase is largely the result of recognizing revenue of $377 million under the agreement with the OPA for the first nine months of the year. During the first nine months of 2009, the Ontario electricity spot price averaged $29 per MWh, significantly lower than the average of $49 per MWh from the same period of 2008.

GOLD

Cameco owns approximately 49% of and has voting control over approximately 53% of Centerra’s shares. Centerra owns and operates two gold mines.

¹		Represents 100% of production from the Kumtor and Boroo gold mines.

For the three months ended September 30, 2009, revenue from our gold business increased by $33 million to $176 million compared to the third quarter of 2008 due to a 12% increase in the US dollar selling price and a 3% increase in sales volume.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, revenue from our gold business increased by $28 million to $427 million compared to the first nine months of 2008 due to a 5% increase in the US dollar selling price, partially offset by a 13% decline in sales volumes. Revenues were also influenced by an improved Cdn/US exchange rate that averaged $1.17 in the first nine months of 2009 compared to $1.02 in 2008.

Centerra’s cost of product sold increased for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 2008 as a result of higher labour costs and an increase in the cost of supplies. In addition, the cost of products and services sold was impacted by recognition of revenue-based taxes in 2009.

OUTLOOK

For the convenience of the reader, we have summarized Cameco’s 2009 consolidated outlook and 2009 outlook for each business segment in a table called “2009 Financial Outlook” provided in our third quarter MD&A.

Below we discuss the material changes made to the 2009 outlook contained in our annual MD&A, as updated by our first and second quarter MD&A. There have been no material changes to our 2009 uranium outlook.

Fuel Services Outlook for 2009

In 2009, fuel services production at Port Hope and SFL is now expected to total between 11 and 13 million kgU compared to our previous estimate of between 8 and 12 million kgU. The increase in our estimate is related to the increased production expected at the Port Hope UF₆ plant as a result of increased confidence in the supply of HF. HF is a primary feed material for the production of UF₆. Productionhad been suspended due to the lack of availability of HF on acceptable terms from December 2008 to mid June 2009. However, we have broadened our sources of supply and are receiving adequate HF.

BPLP’s Outlook for 2009

Electricity revenue in 2009 is expected to increase 15% to 20% over 2008 compared to the 10% to 15% increase previously reported. This change in outlook is largely the result of a continued deterioration in the Ontario electricity market in the third quarter and BPLP recognizing revenue under its agreement with OPA.

In addition, BPLP has in place financial contracts that correspond to about 45% of planned generation over the remainder of the year. Revenue recognized under the agreement with the OPA plus benefits under the financial contracts will contribute to higher realized electricity revenue for 2009.

Gold Outlook for 2009

Centerra expects its 2009 gold production to total between 620,000 and 630,000 ounces compared to its second quarter estimate of 680,000 to 730,000 ounces. The reduction is due to lower than expected production at Kumtor resulting from deferred access to the high grade component of the SB zone in the central pit to the fourth quarter of 2009. Gold production at Kumtor is expected by Centerra to be approximately 500,000 ounces compared to the second quarter estimate of 560,000 to 600,000 ounces.

Uranium Production Outlook (2009 to 2013)

COMPANY UPDATES

Cigar Lake

We continue to make progress in remediating the inflow that occurred August 12, 2008 during the dewatering of the underground workings.

On October 23, 2009, we announced that dewatering of the underground development at Cigar Lake had resumed. Dewatering is progressing as planned.

We will provide new estimates of the planned production date and capital cost after the mine has been dewatered, the condition of the underground has been evaluated and the mine plan has been updated to reflect any resulting information.

McArthur River/Key Lake

At McArthur River, the initial raisebore chamber tunnel for zone 2, panel 5 was completed within the protection of freezewalls. This marks the first time development has been accomplished through the unconformity into the Athabasca sandstone. Production from this chamber is expected to start in the fourth quarter. Zone 2, panel 5 is planned to account for approximately two-thirds of McArthur River mine production in 2010. We expect approximately 85 million pounds U₃O₈ to be mined from this area. Portions of the new production raises will intersect the original freezewall developed for mining in zone 2, panels 1, 2 and 3. The original freezewall is redundant now that the freezewall for zone 2, panel 5 is in place. The steel freezepipes contained in the original freezewall pose a mining challenge. We have developed a method to remove the pipes in advance of production and are progressing with this work. Timely removal of the steel freezepipes now represents the largest remaining schedule risk that could impact 2010 production rates in this area. Over the past year, we have successfully addressed the risks associated with freeze drilling, ground freezing and development of the first raisebore chamber for this new production area.

In lower zone 4, freezehole drilling is progressing well and is on track to be completed by year end. Freezing of this new ore source is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2010 with initial production planned in the latter part of 2010.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted net earnings, a non-GAAP measure, should be considered as supplemental in nature and not a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Consolidated net earnings are adjusted in order to provide a more meaningful basis for period-to-period comparisons of the financial results. The following table outlines the adjustments to net earnings.

Adjusted Net Earnings
