Low Cost Structure and Strong Financial Position
Lithium Royalty Corp. maintains a low-cost structure with only 10 employees and minimal cash G&A, which declined by 38% year-over-year. The company is debt-free with $7.1 million cash on hand.
Positive Long-term Lithium Demand Outlook
Global EV sales are on track to increase by 20% compared to 2023, and stationary energy storage is forecasted to grow by 100% in 2024. These factors indicate strong long-term demand for lithium.
M&A Activity Enhancing Portfolio
Recent M&A activity, such as Rio Tinto's $6.7 billion acquisition of Arcadium Lithium, is expected to improve LRC's portfolio over time with more robust counterparties.
Upcoming Revenue Sources
Several projects, including Ganfeng's Mariana, Zijin's Tres Quebradas, and Sigma Lithium's Phase 2 expansion, are expected to add incremental revenue in 2025.
