Stephen Gengaro has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors influencing Lucid Group’s current financial position and future prospects. The company delivered solid first-quarter results, primarily due to effective cost optimization and maintaining its production guidance for the year. However, despite these positive developments, there is a significant concern regarding Lucid’s near-term cash burn and the necessity for additional capital, which tempers enthusiasm for a more favorable rating.
Moreover, while there has been some progress in gross margin improvement, potential challenges from tariffs could impact profitability. The anticipated launch of a mid-sized platform in the second half of 2026 is seen as a critical point for future growth, but until then, the company is expected to face substantial cash requirements. These factors combined with the current market conditions and the need for further clarity on margin improvements justify the Hold rating and a target price of $3.
Gengaro covers the Energy sector, focusing on stocks such as Cactus, Baker Hughes Company, and DMC Global. According to TipRanks, Gengaro has an average return of 0.2% and a 37.94% success rate on recommended stocks.
In another report released on May 8, TD Cowen also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $2.30 price target.
