The latest update is out from International Lithium ( (TSE:ILC) ).

International Lithium Corp. reported that an arbitration at the Singapore International Arbitration Centre over a legacy dispute between Lepidico Chemicals Namibia and Jiangxi Jinhui Lithium in China resulted in an unfavourable ruling against Lepidico, whose Namibian subsidiary controls the Karibib lithium, rubidium and cesium project. Having deliberately structured its September 2025 deal for Lepidico Mauritius as an option pending this outcome, International Lithium remains a secured creditor and option holder on the Karibib project and is now assessing its strategic options, a process that could influence its expansion into Southern Africa and its broader positioning as a supplier of critical minerals amid rising global demand and geopolitical efforts to secure diversified, non-Chinese sources of lithium and related metals.

Spark’s Take on TSE:ILC Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:ILC is a Underperform.

International Lithium’s overall score is low due to severe financial challenges, including no revenue and consistent losses. Technical indicators provide mixed signals, with a generally bearish trend and valuation concerns due to negative profitability. The lack of dividend yield and significant corporate developments further dampen the stock’s attractiveness.
