Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Construction MilestonesAnalyst highlights steady construction progress with first steel columns installed, processing facility work commenced and detailed engineering largely complete, supporting on-schedule delivery.
Project FinancingAnalyst notes receipt of an initial DOE loan drawdown and significant ATM proceeds, leaving the company fully funded and able to shift focus to project execution.
Workforce And LogisticsAnalyst points to a growing site workforce and ready storage infrastructure for long-lead equipment shipments, enabling sustained ramp-up of onsite activity.
Bears Say
Share DilutionAnalyst flags notable dilution from multiple ATM equity programs and the loan drawdown, which could weigh on per-share metrics and investor returns.
Tariff-driven Capex PressureAnalyst warns that tariffs are likely to affect roughly a quarter of the project's capital base, creating upward pressure on overall capital expenditures beyond planned inflation assumptions.
Valuation And Execution RiskAnalyst is neutral given lithium price volatility, uncertainty around the final capital budget and potential staffing and timeline challenges that could undermine expected returns.
