Powell’s speech, Nvidia’s chips, Meta deal - what’s moving markets
Investing.com - Cantor Fitzgerald has reiterated its Neutral rating on Lucid Group Inc . (NASDAQ:LCID) with a price target of $3.00, according to a research note released Thursday. The stock currently trades at $2.05, near its 52-week low, with a market capitalization of $6.25 billion. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company has shown strong revenue growth of 40.67% over the last twelve months.
The investment firm is maintaining its current position on the electric vehicle manufacturer pending a model update. Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Andres Sheppard derived the $3 price target using a bottom-up 10-year discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis.
The DCF model incorporates an 11% weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and calculates terminal value using a 2% long-term growth rate. These financial metrics form the foundation of the firm’s current valuation of the luxury EV maker.
Cantor Fitzgerald identified several key risk factors affecting Lucid’s outlook, including the company’s high negative gross margins and challenges related to production scaling. Additional concerns center on Lucid’s capital requirements, potential impacts from tariffs, and possible removal of EV tax credits.
The firm also noted that a broader slowdown in electric vehicle demand represents another significant risk factor for Lucid Group as it attempts to gain market share in the competitive EV landscape.
