Cracking The Code: Understanding Analyst Reviews For Sociedad Quimica Y Minera

JP Morgan analyst Lucas Ferreira downgrades Sociedad Quimica Y Minera (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SQM#NYSE">SQM</a>) from Overweight to Neutral and lowers the price target from $55 to $44.

Price Target

JP Morgan Downgrades Sociedad Quimica Y Minera to Neutral, Lowers Price Target to $44

On Monday, Rio Tinto (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>) confirmed that it is in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.riotinto.com/en/news/releases/2024/rio-tinto-confirms-approach-to-arcadium-lithium" rel="noreferrer noopener">non-binding talks to acquire</a> Arcadium Lithium (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALTM#NYSE">ALTM</a>), a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/lithium" rel="noreferrer noopener">major lithium miner</a> formed from the merger of Livent and Allkem. Both companies clarified that the discussions are preliminary, and there is no certainty that a transaction will proceed.
If the acquisition goes through, Rio Tinto would become one of the largest lithium producers globally, behind industry leaders like Albemarle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALB#NYSE">ALB</a>) and SQM (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SQM#NYSE">SQM</a>).
However, the company would have to pay a significant premium, as industry insiders value Arcadium between $4 billion and $6 billion—representing a potential 60% premium over the company's market value.
Still, even that premium would be far off Arcadium's $10.6 billion valuation in January when a merger between Alkem and Livent <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/23/12/36309873/livent-secures-allkem-merger-following-piper-sandler-downgrade" rel="noreferrer noopener">created the enterprise</a>.
Since then, a prolonged slump in the lithium market has sent the shares down by more than 50%, making it an acquisition target. The company is also a diverse producer, with an operational footprint in nine countries and high-profile customers such as Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), BMW, and General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>).
Michael Teran, deputy portfolio manager at Blackwattle Investment Partners, classified this move as an "opportunistic bid to take advantage of low lithium prices."
Most investors in the stock have already had a lot of pain or are there for the longer term, so they are looking through the cycle to see where this could end up," he said <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ft.com/content/a2f3f634-28fb-46cf-933e-9cc44b476a31" rel="noreferrer noopener">to</a> the Financial Times.
Rio Tinto already has significant lithium projects in development, including the Rincon project in Argentina and the Jadar project in Serbia. The company has committed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/03/37855851/argentinas-lithium-mining-sector-gets-350m-boost-with-rio-tinto-investment" rel="noreferrer noopener">significant capital to developing Rincon</a>, with plans to invest $2 billion in building a lithium carbonate production plant to ramp up production in 2025.
However, the Jadar project has faced <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/06/39357247/rio-tinto-to-initiate-largest-european-lithium-project-by-2028" rel="noreferrer noopener">considerable opposition</a> from local communities in Serbia. They are concerned about environmental impacts and slowing progress on one of Rio's critical European ventures.
Owing to the mineral nature of the lithium there, the project could not even use Arcadium's advanced direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology, which the company has been refining. Still, it would be a valuable advancement for brine-based projects in South America.
The Australian listing of Arcadium Lithium rose 45.7% on the news, closing at A$6.09 ($4.13). The US premarket listing was up 30%, trading at $3.98&nbsp; as of 6 AM ET.

Rio Tinto Confirms Interest In Arcadium Lithium, Shares Surge

Source: <a href="https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2024/09/25/co-s-q3-24-notable-for-tech-innovation-validation.html?utm_medium=feed">Streetwise Reports 09/25/2024</a>
These achievements pertain to the company&#39;s proprietary methods for sustainable lithium mining. Learn why one analyst rates the stock Immediate Strong Buy.
Lithos Group Ltd. (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/litsf#OTC">LITSF</a>) provided a Q3/24 corporate and operational update highlighting the company&#39;s innovation and progress with its proprietary technologies, noted a news release.
&quot;Our achievements this quarter are just the beginning of a transformative period for Lithos&quot; Chief Executive Officer Scott Taylor said in the release. &quot;As demand for lithium continues to grow with the global push towards electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, we are confident that our innovative technologies position us to become a key player in meeting that demand sustainably.&quot;
<h2>AcQUA&trade; Technology Validated by Industry Giant</h2>
A highlight of the quarter was the successful testing of Lithos&#39; testing of its AcQUA&trade; technology, conducted in collaboration with Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sqm#NYSE">SQM</a>), one of the world&#39;s largest lithium producers. The technology demonstrated its ability to remove impurities like magnesium, boric acid, calcium, and sulfates from the brine, resulting in high-purity, battery-grade lithium.
&quot;This validation from an industry leader that has tested nearly every direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology available solidifies our competitive edge&quot; Taylor said.
The AcQUA&trade; process is a patent-pending, hybrid, electro-pressure membrane method that enhances lithium concentration without requiring freshwater or harmful chemicals. Lithos has taken steps to protect its intellectual property by petitioning the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to expedite the issuance of this vital patent.
<h2>Introducing TiERRA&trade; Technology: A Game-Changer for Sustainability</h2>
In addition to AcQUA&trade;, Lithos has introduced a second breakthrough technology: TiERRA&trade;, which is designed to address one of the most pressing challenges in the lithium industry &mdash; responsible re-injection of spent brine without depleting freshwater resources. TiERRA&trade; offers a post-DLE solution that allows brine to be re-injected at scale, reducing environmental impact and enhancing the economic viability of lithium extraction.
&quot;TiERRA&trade; acts like a turbocharger for DLE processes, recycling and conditioning brine to close the loop in lithium extraction&quot; Taylor explained.
Lithos is already working with two multinational corporations in the specialty chemicals and mining sectors that are testing AcQUA&trade; and considering TiERRA&trade; for large-scale re-injection projects.
<h2>Securing Funding for Commercial Expansion</h2>
Lithos secured Phase 2 funding through the U.S. Department of Energy&#39;s FASTRACK program to further validate AcQUA&trade; and TiERRA&trade;.
Now the company is pursuing a multimillion-dollar Phase 3 commercialization grant it would use to accelerate deployment of its two solutions at its customers&#39; lithium projects.
<h2>An Eye To Sustainable Production</h2>
Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Lithos Group aims to &quot;become the global standard in economically efficient, sustainable lithium production&quot; the company said. Its patented-pending AcQUA&trade; technology spans the whole value chain from the conditioning and pretreatment of raw brines, the primary bottleneck, through the DLE phase to the polishing and purification of battery-grade lithium feedstock. About 70% of global lithium resources are hosted in brine.
Lithos has two fully operational facilities, a 4,000-square-foot laboratory in Denver, Colo., and a 55,000-square-foot complex, permitted to produce pilot-scale lithium hydroxide, in Bessemer, Ala.
<h2>Batteries To Drive Sector Growth</h2>
The global lithium market is forecasted to more than triple in value by 2033, reaching US$28.45 billion (US$28.45B) from US$9.86B this year, Precedence Research wrote on Sept. 10. This reflects a compound annual growth rate of 12.5% during the forecast period.
Global demand for the critical metal is projected to continue climbing steadily until at least 2035, Statista data show, to 3,829,000 metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent from 917,000 metric tons in 2023.
<blockquote class="callOut left">Technical Analyst Clive Maund explained that what is happening with the stock is unusual in that the price keeps dropping slowly yet the accumulation line keeps plowing ahead, &quot;creating a positive divergence that promises a reversal into a major bull market.&quot; Thus, he recommended investors add to their positions and stay long in Lithos.</blockquote>
Precedence Research attributed the projected growth to increasing demand for lithium batteries in various industries. Marin Katusa of Katusa Research pinpointed electric vehicles (EVs) and battery storage as the primary key drivers.
All major electric vehicle batteries require lithium, about 1.55 pounds per kilowatt hour of battery capacity, on average, he noted. Global battery cell manufacturing capacity is expected to hit 7.2 terawatt hours in 2030, more than triple its capacity in 2023.
&quot;I think the data speaks for itself that there&#39;s more growth and opportunity on the horizon&quot; Katusa wrote.
Another major catalyst, noted Katusa, &quot;for the U.S.-friendly lithium sector&quot; is the country&#39;s policy regarding foreign entities of concern (FEOCs), entities owned or controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction of, certain countries, which today are China, North Korea, Russia, and Iran. This mandates that EVs will not qualify for the EV tax credit if any of the vehicle&#39;s battery components came from an FEOC (as of 2024) or if any of the applicable critical minerals came from an FEOC (starting in 2025).
Despite increasing demand and all stages of new lithium projects coming online, the global lithium market is headed toward a supply deficit, which could happen as soon as 2025, Jacob White with Sprott Asset Management told Stockhead on Aug. 9. Meanwhile, lithium prices may have hit their bottom. This is good news for investors, noted White, not just in lithium miners but also in companies throughout the supply chain.
<h2>The Catalysts</h2>
The key ongoing catalysts for Lithos are additional contracts for its technologies and further validation of the same from industry leaders, Taylor noted in the release.
&quot;We are moving closer to our goal of becoming a commercial services company that not only extracts lithium but does so in a way that safeguards the environment for future generations&quot; the CEO added.
<h2>Snapback Rally Predicted</h2>
Technical Analyst Clive Maund has an Immediate Strong Buy on Lithos stock because its charts show it is on the precipice of a snapback rally during which the price jumped initially to the CA$0.45&minus;0.50 range, he wrote in an Aug. 21 report. This reflects a 275&minus;317% upside from the company&#39;s share price at the time of the report, lower now than it was then.
Maund explained that what is happening with the stock is unusual in that the price keeps dropping slowly yet the accumulation line keeps plowing ahead, &quot;creating a positive divergence that promises a reversal into a major bull market.&quot; Thus, he recommended investors add to their positions and stay long in Lithos.
<h2>Ownership and Share Structure</h2>
The company said that about 60% of Lithos is held by insiders and management. According to Reuters, this includes CEO Scott Taylor, who has 14.19%, Independent Director Michael Westlake, who has 0.71%, and Independent Director Kevin McKenna, who has 0.05%.
About 27% of the company is held by strategic entities. The rest is retail.
Lithos has a market cap of CA$20.7 million and about 84.62 million shares outstanding. Its 52-week range is CA$0.98 to CA$0.20.
