Albemarle Corporation faces significant business risks due to its relationships with local communities and stakeholders, particularly in regions like Chile and Western Australia. Conflicts may arise as these groups, including indigenous peoples, may have interests that conflict with Albemarle’s objectives, especially regarding land and waterway usage. The increasing public concern over environmental impacts of mining activities further complicates these relationships, potentially leading to disputes and financial burdens such as settlement agreements or operational restrictions. Despite Albemarle’s commitment to social responsibility, these challenges could materially affect its operations, financial condition, and reputation.
The average ALB stock price target is $102.50, implying 29.34% upside potential.
