Arcadium Lithium's (ASX:LTM) adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for the September quarter was $43 million, below Mizuho Securities' $98 million estimate, amid weaker demand and falling prices of lithium products, the investment firm said in a note Thursday.
Lithium hydroxide and carbonate sales fell 24% to $142 million quarter on quarter, while spodumene sales fell 7% to $22 million quarter on quarter.
Commenting on the company's acquisition by Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO), the investment firm said there should be no "significant" antitrust issues as Rio Tinto is still in development mode on its lithium ambitions.
Mizuho Securities kept its neutral rating and $5.85 price target on Arcadium Lithium.
