Friday, 31 March 2023PLS - PILBARA MINERALS LIMITED
Morgans rates PLS as Add (1) - In the wake of Albemarle's rejected takeover bid for Liontown Resources ((LTR)), Morgans sees potential for Pilbara Minerals to also become a takeover target due to its exposure to high quality hard rock.
Pilbara Minerals remains one of the few independent lithium producers with a globally significant resource, points out the analyst, allowing an acquirer immediate exposure to spodumene and hydroxide.
While the broker sees value in the Lithium sector, it cautions shorter-term traders that lithium price weakness continues, particularly in Chinese carbonate prices.
The $5.30 target and Add rating are retained and the stock becomes the broker’s key pick of the pure plays in the sector.
Target price is $5.30 Current Price is $3.99 Difference: $1.31 If PLS meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 33% (excluding dividends, fees and charges). Current consensus price target is $5.58, suggesting upside of 39.7%(ex-dividends)The company's fiscal year ends in June.
