Pilbara Minerals, owner of the biggest hard-rock lithium mine in the world, revealed its half-year earnings this morning
\nThe numbers may be lacklustre, but the words were positive
\nPUR, WML, POS, all trading up nicely today amid a mixed day for the leading battery metal<\/p>\n

Our lithium roundup for Thursday, February 22.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

With a 65% decline in revenue to $757 million, a 77% decline in EBITDA to $415 million, and a 78% drop in underlying profit after tax to $273 million, it certainly wasn\u2019t Pilbara Minerals\u2019 greatest ever half yearly results today, and the Aussie titan\u2019s share price today somewhat reflects the earnings slump with a -1.23% intraday loss.<\/p>\n

Attributed by the company, as you might expect, to the tanked lithium prices over the past several months \u2013 with an average realised price down 67% year on year from US$4,993 per tonne to US$1,645 per tonne.<\/p>\n

The PLS figures were below some analysts expectations \u2013 Goldman Sachs, for instance had forecast revenue for the company of $774 million and underlying EBITDA of $469 million.<\/p>\n

Were there silver linings, though? There was certainly plenty of long-lensing, which is pretty much a prerequisite for all lithium players right now \u2013 hopefuls and even major producers like PLS.<\/p>\n

Here were some of the good bits:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Cash flow for PLS is still very good, with a positive cash margin from operations of $536 million for the half and a healthy cash balance of $2.1 billion at the end of December.<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u201cLong-term outlooks [for the lithium market] remain incredibly positive,\u201d said CEO Dale Henderson, noting the growth of electric vehicle sales globally increasing 31% on the prior year.<\/p>\n

Source: PLS half-yearly results webcast.<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u201cMoving to short term observations, over the recent while it [lithium pricing] appears to have levelled,\u201d added Henderson. \u201cAs it relates to new sales inquiries, we have seen more activities, more inbound inquiries. And I think we\u2019ve had more of the past eight weeks than we\u2019ve had in quite some period.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2022 Something that also caught our ears during the PLS webcast this morning \u2013 a question Henderson fielded regarding the speculation going around that Chinese lithium mining giant CATL could be shutting down its Jianxiawo mine, which could have a huge affect on global lithium supply, and a potentially positive one for the Aussie sector.<\/p>\n

While Henderson noted he had no unique insight around it, he did acknowledge that the news, \u201cif true, is very interesting, because it would signal a swing price, potentially, for spodumene \u2013 and a price which would knock out a lot of lepidolite supply\u2026 certainly in some ways it cold be a positive signal.<\/p>\n
