CLQ Focused on Québec Lithium Project
|
ERIC ZAUNSCHERB, Canaccord Genuity

Event Canada Lithium has relinquished its interest in its secondary Nevada lithium brine project and notched up the scale and confidence level of the Québec Lithium project with a target or conceptual resource of 29 million tonnes grading 1.1% Li2O. Impact – Positive The focus on the higher-value Québec lithium project is welcome and the resource target update increases clarity but impacts valuation only marginally to the positive. Valuation and Action We have removed the nominal C$3 million value of the Nevada brine project and incorporated the new Québec Lithium target or conceptual resource of 29 million tonnes grading 1.1% Li2O. We had valued Québec Lithium on the basis of the historical resource multiplied by the peer EV mean (less outlier) of C$0.08/lb multiplied by a factor of 1.5x to reflect a new NI 43-101 compliant resource expected by year-end. We have reduced this factor to 1.3x to reflect the fact that increased confidence and scale have now been captured to some extent. Our total project NAV estimate rises to of C$80 million, or C$0.55, up from C$0.46 per share. Canada Lithium is trading at price multiples of 0.6x project NAV and 0.9x corporate NAV. We apply a 0.7x target project multiple to generate a price target of C$0.50 per share. The 14% projected return continues to justify a SPECULATIVE BUY rating. |
