High Voltage: Lithium prices beaten up but analysts eye strong, long game

Yes, we know, Goldman Sachs – ‘spot’ lithium prices are in the toilet. But let’s zoom out
RFC Ambrian has done just that with its latest analysis. And there are positive takeaways
Weekly ASX battery metal gainers led by: RGL, VHM, EMN

Our High Voltage column wraps the news driving ASX stocks with exposure to lithium, graphite, cobalt, nickel, rare earths, manganese, magnesium, and vanadium

At the risk of sounding like a broken record here, the broad update on the most news-hogging of battery metals (that’d be lithium) is as follows:

‘Spot prices’ are still tanking amid a supply glut and slowed demand this year… and yet, a strong long-term future for lithium and other battery metals still appears to be the consensus.

There’s no denying how ugly these two charts look right now, though…

Led by Goldman Sachs, bearish outlooks for lithium prices have been dominating the battery metal’s headlines just lately.

Lithium carbonate and spodumene pricing has been on a continuous slide for about a month, with further gloomy forecasting ahead in the near term for the limelight-hogging electric vehicle battery metal.

Per Josh’s Ground Breakers column from the other day:

In a note on Monday, Chinese industry monitor MySteel moved in lockstep with lithium persona non grata Goldman Sachs, predicting [spodumene] prices would head below US$1400/t in 2024.

Ouch.

And yet, as this column is wont to tell you, it’s the opposite of doom and gloom on a zoomed-out lens according to leading analysts. As a bloke called Axl once said, “all we need, is just a little patience…”

The crystal ball reckons… hang in there

One such group of leading analysts is RFC Ambrian – a global investment advisor – and it’s just put out a detailed report on how it views, through a worldwide mining-sector lens, the lithium market now and into the future.

The group based their analysis and benchmarking on 69 global projects, including eight new mines to come onstream this year.

Some key takeaways…

• “We expect the consolidation of the lithium industry to continue as the larger producers look to acquire the better-quality projects, oil and gas companies seek energy transition opportunities, and junior companies merge to attain critical mass and potential synergies.”

• The report predicts that there will eventually be a supply deficit to demand longer term – by 2030, for example – and that it’s a positive for the mining industry.

• But… that supply deficit “may not be as large as currently indicated by consensus because the pace of new supply is picking up. Nevertheless, the mine supply pipeline beyond 2030 still has plenty of scope for longer-term capacity but will require further encouragement and financing of early-stage exploration projects.”

• “Demand growth is expected to continue with strong forecasts for the next two decades” amid the expected pick-up in electric vehicle uptake globally.

• “The strong long-term demand outlook, recent higher prices, and government support for the lithium supply chain is also driving strong interest and activity in mergers, acquisitions, and consolidation of the lithium industry.”

LTR’s Kathleen Valley gets a top 5 project nod

The top five ranked projects in RFC Ambrian’s analysis were:

Grota do Cirilo (Brazil) – Sigma Lithium

Bonnie Claire (USA) – Nevada Lithium

Kathleen Valley (Australia, WA) – Liontown Resources (ASX:LTR)

Zeus (USA) – Noram Lithium

TLC (USA) – American Lithium

Here’s the full list of the analyst’s “high profile” lithium projects category, ranked on the following factors…

The report is seriously table and graph-tastic, but here’s another that caught our eyes and is worth a look from an ASX-stock-focused bent…

It’s 15 of the companies it classifies as high profile, ranked by Enterprise Value (EV) – not to be confused with the other EV central to this whole narrative, of course!

“The table shows the market capitalisation and Enterprise Value (EV) of these companies and a crude comparative valuation based on EV/t LCE resources, and EV/NPV of the projects.”
