National Bank Financial on Thursday reiterated its outperform rating Lithium Americas (LAC.TO, LAC) while raising its price target to C$7.50 from C$7.25 after the company released a new resource estimate for its Thacker Pass project.
"We have now updated our model with the new estimates provided. A summary of our revised assumptions can be found in Figure 1. Our overall NAV increased from largely unchanged from C$7.55/sh to C$8.11/sh driven by a 66% increase in the Thacker Pass NPV10% offset by our reduction of the exploration upside given the longer mine life of 85 years now modelled. As a result, we increase our price target from $7.25 to $7.50 and reiterate our Outperform rating. The focus for LAC remains the completion of the final funding requirement per our model of $170 mln, the final investment decision expected in the coming months and the smooth advancement of major construction," analyst Mohamed Sidibe wrote.
