Bulls say / Bears say
LAR maintained industry-leading, low cash operating costs of $6,634 per tonne at Cauchari-Olaroz, confirming its position as a low-cost producer.
Operations returned to over 85% capacity after maintenance, and the company reaffirmed its full-year 2025 production guidance of 30,000–35,000 tonnes, demonstrating strong operational resilience.
Argentina's adoption of direct lithium extraction (DLE) technologies, highlighted by YPF's partnership with XtraLit, supports LAR's plan for a DLE demonstration plant, which can lower costs and improve margins in the future.
Cauchari-Olaroz production dropped 15% in Q1 2025 due to planned shutdowns, raising concerns about potential operational disruptions and reliability.
Average realized lithium prices stayed pressured, with Q1 2025 settling at $8,085 per tonne; ongoing weak market conditions are likely to keep squeezing margins.
Argentina’s new RIGI investment regime has shown regulatory uncertainty, with recent government decisions both approving and rejecting lithium projects, frustrating investors and posing risks of delays to LAR’s expansion plans.
