Small blurb about SLI and possibly exciting news regarding Arkansas in general.

Where does it talk about SLI?

It also says it anticipates Arkansas to be a hub for “flying cars” which they anticipate to be a $1.5T market by 2040. That’s uh…. That’s something.

Schedule is more important that cost. The schedule can also be pulled in by a design build strategy. As in, as soon as the civil design of the plant is finished, construction can start while the piping and other parts are still being designed.

Upscaling quad drones is possible especially with self-flying capability. Not going to hold my breath on that just yet.

There are a few on the market now and many more on the way. I bet they'll need a lot of lithium for them!

So what's the upside for SLI given this?

quote:

In case of a successful completion of the FEED study, Standard Lithium could build a plant for the production of battery grade lithium carbonate at one of the three LANXESS plants in El Dorado at their own expense. LANXESS does not bear any investment risk but has the option to acquire resulting battery grade lithium carbonate from Standard Lithium at advantageous pricing, i.e. at a discount of up to 20 percent to market, the final discount to be determined together with the conclusion of other project-related supply and services agreements between LANXESS and Standard Lithium.

Was that included as part of the access to brine agreement? Or did SLi already have that secured?

Lanxess owns the feed stock and you have to give them a monetary incentive to provide said feed stock. Speculation is Lanxess was slowing the entire project down and this could, in theory, get it back on the rails and moving forward, but that's TBD.

I believe SLI retains 100% ownership if Lanxess gets the 20% discount. So would the 20% discount be similar to a royalty?

If Lanxess invests in the project company, SLI’s ownership % goes down but Lanxess must pay full market price less a handling fee for the lithium they take.

Is this the way others are reading the agreement? Please reply if I am off base here.

Are we thinking jv is priced in at this point?

I’ll be honest, I think this eliminated the JV. Certainly it guarantees there isn’t going to be a JV announced this year (prior to the FEED).

Agree, it seems to have eliminated the 60/40 and 70/30 scenarios altogether.

I also think this took the JV price hike out of the picture, but still feel it will trade up for awhile. If it wasn't for Koch my sentiments would be 180 from where they are.

Yeah it seems like this either falls out to does the tech work or not, if it does then $20+ long term is still in the cards once they are in production, if not it's $0. At least Lanxess is out of the decision making process now, which I think is a good thing long term. The question is did they get themselves out of the decision making process because they have some insight that the tech isn't gonna pan out. Seems like if they thought that way that they would be selling their SLI shares as well.

Makes sense. If Lanxess thought that they were in a chronically leaking boat less energy would be devoted to moving on by selling shares as opposed to patching leaks.
