Uranium Energy Corp's stock price increased by 19.21% between January 7 and January 14, 2026. The company was among the energy stocks that gained the most during that week.
The US-based uranium production and exploration company operates North America's newest uranium mine.
The stock jump followed Uranium Energy Corp's participation as a key investor in a dual-track financing round recently closed by Anfield Energy. Anfield Energy raised a total of $10 million in the offering.
Uranium Energy Corp invested $4 million as part of the concurrent offering. The company now holds approximately 28.8% of Anfield's outstanding common shares on an undiluted basis, and about 36.8% on a partially diluted basis.
Anfield Energy plans to direct the funds into pivotal US uranium assets. These assets include the West Slope Project, Velvet-Wood Project, the Slick Rock Project, and Shootaring Canyon Mill.
Uranium Energy Corp also benefited from recent increases in uranium prices. Uranium futures are currently at their highest level since mid 2024. Fresh buying from physical funds and signs of stronger demand from datacenters have driven the price increase.
