Value Seen in Australian Lithium Stocks Despite Softer Outlook

Dow Jones06-29

0324 GMT - Weaker near- to medium-term lithium-price forecasts lead UBS to pare its share-price expectations for Australian producers, including PLS and Liontown. Still, UBS says it remains positive on ASX lithium stocks, citing strong valuation support despite softer sentiment. Liontown remains its top pick, while PMET is "a compelling option into the long-term thematic," it says. UBS reiterates buy ratings on Liontown, PMET and IGO. It reaffirms a neutral rating on PLS, which it says still appears expensive versus peers. Its target on PLS drops by 17% to A$5.60/share, while its target on Liontown falls 7.4% to A$2.50. UBS trims its target on IGO by 1.0% to A$9.65, while its target on PMET is unchanged at A$0.90. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
