Lucid could EXPLODE on *this* News.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey everyone me kevin here so a lot of
you might remember that i have been
extremely bullish on lucid from the spac
merger on i expressed my frustrations of
lucid having its momentum swing way up
and then falling away down and
potentially way over selling back to
like 17 a share and for probably four to
five months i was asked kevin when is
this stock ever going to go up am i just
holding bags here thanks a lot kevin
what do i do and i kept saying folks
just wait until deliveries start because
once deliveries start hype and momentum
comes back and folks that's what we have
right now deliveries have started we
have hype momentum and the stock has
literally gone to the moon it's up over
450 percent this year it is way way way
way up over 55 dollars per share and
right now it feels like there's nothing
holding it back because we're in the
midst of an eevee super cycle but in
this video i want to talk about
something that a lot of us have
forgotten because we last talked about
this on march
2nd well the ev market turned to crap
in march
in april
in may
and barely started recovering in july
and so revisiting this piece of
information here i think is especially
critical because of an announcement this
week by
some big silicon valley tech company and
this is bullish for lucid now i'm going
to talk about my price trajectory for
lucid in just a moment but first
let's hit this clip here because this is
really really important
right after i mentioned that you should
check out the program on building your

is a black friday coupon and of course

that linked down below check those out
okay let's jump in over here so this is
going to look a little funny because
you're gonna have two kevin's here uh
but that's just the way it is you got
old kevin and uh whatever this is right
here and uh let's go ahead and listen to
about 15 seconds of this listen closely
here to what peter rollinson says
always connected with an ethernet
gigabit ring
super connected car two terabytes of
data on board storage super cloud
connectivity this is the perfect
platform for any um
um silicon valley
big company
to prove out its ad software i think
okay what is ad software autonomous
driving
software what is a potential big silicon
valley along with peter rollinson's
nudge nudge wink wink that he did there
just replay it if you missed that nudge
nudge wink wink
how about apple
folks literally this week apple said hey
we don't plan to have a full
self-driving vehicle until 2025
but we might partner with another
vehicle manufacturer beforehand we might
partner with another manufacturer
between 2022 and 2023
now they didn't exactly say why
but peter rollinson might have the
answer here hey we've got the perfect
stack where you might be able to test
out your ad autonomous driving software
if you're a big silicon valley company
come on folks it's either google it's
apple
uh maybe maybe it's um
qualcomm but actually i don't or or
nvidia but let me see where's qualcomm
uh headquarters let's see that oh
they're headquartered in san diego
that's interesting did not know that
so but anyway that's in my opinion
pretty bullish doesn't really matter
what company it is it's very very
bullish for lucid by the way
nvidia is also headquartered above santa
clara so uh or above san jose in santa
clara so i don't know that it really
matters which of these it is
maybe it's not even one of these but
you've got some pretty big options there
and that was a pretty clear nudge-nudge
wink wink in my opinion so to me
that's pretty bullish on lucid imagine
if lucid announced a partnership with
with apple
this stock would just go haywire it
would absolutely go
bonkers no guarantees total speculation
obviously just putting pieces of the
puzzle together here but what do we know
about price action here recently and is
this a stock that we want to potentially
fomo in now because the upside is way
higher well look lucid right now is a 90
billion dollar valuation it's somewhere
around 111 the size of tesla
and we've got in my opinion a few
negative catalysts coming up that could
potentially hurt the stock now that does
not mean i'm anti the stock while there
have been some frustrations with with
how deliveries are being processed at
the company
i've been a big fan of the stock now i
traded a lot of my investment in the
stock i traded a lot with call options
and i traded a lot with sold puts but
more importantly what we want to look at
here is what do we actually think is
going to happen upon negative catalysts
let's talk about that by looking at the
chart so right now we're sitting at a
55-21
this is a company that projected to
deliver around 520 vehicles here in 2021
uh and then potentially take off in 2022
in fact what i'll do is i'll pull up my
spreadsheet where i compare uh lucid uh
actually i don't even know that i've
revealed my lucid spreadsheet before so
here's a treat for you uh and i also
talk about how i built do my fundamental
analysis and all that in stocks and
psychology money seriously use that
black friday coupon because the price is
just going to go up from there so
initially we were expecting to deliver a
thousand vehicles in 2021 we think that
ramp's probably going to be closer to
520. so i i think it's there's a big
risk here uh downside miss risk so i'm
putting this here because this would be
reported in january of 2022 right if
we're expecting a potential
uh
partnership announcement by a company
like apple or some other silicon valley
tech company sometime in 2022 then
there's a good chance you're going to
have a really big negative catalyst for
lucid stock potentially in january now
they might kill it but i don't think
they will i think that they're going to
substantially miss on deliveries
it's very very important that they
started delivering because nobody
actually thought they would begin
delivering vehicles i had faith that
they would deliver vehicles i also had
faith the stock would go up once they
started delivering vehicles i did not
think it was going to momentum move as
much as it did i will tell you that and
when it ran from like 22 to 30 i thought
okay cool this is the beginning of the
move of of deliver vehicles being
delivered and that's it no it ended up
almost doubling from there right like 55
it's incredible but anyway
i do believe that that means right now
we're really built not on fundamentals
we're built on fundamentals plus a lot
of hype and that hype can get hurt on a
deliveries miss so if we end up with a
deliveries miss and let's say what if we
only deliver 420 vehicles right and
that's less than even the revised 520
expected for this year that's not going
to be as ideal because what people are
going to do in my opinion potentially in
the q1 report the earnings report is
they might take and extrapolate their
production rate here depending on what
kind of guide loose it gives and if the
guide or which almost certainly will be
the production rate are less than that
20 000 vehicle target for 2022
which 20 000 vehicles
that's a little less than 2 000 per
month
1666 vehicles if they're on a slower
pace than doing 1600 vehicles per month
which we substantially expect them to be
i mean think about it if they're trying
to get 500 out the rest of the year
starting in september when they first
made that projection that means
september october november december in
four months they got about a hundred
vehicles out a month they've got to
somehow 16x their production
realistically by q2 at the latest of
2022 otherwise the stock market's gonna
look and go whoa whoa wait a minute you
guys are ramping way
way too slowly this is not good
i think that is a potential
massive downside risk for lucid now
don't get me wrong i think there are a
lot of really cool upsides for lucid in
the long term uh a lot of lucid though
valuation wise is going to come down to
that value per vehicle we know lucid is
rushing to try to get to an under 80 000
a dollar vehicle let's say that they get
to a 79 000 vehicle they're selling
their 130s they're 140 000 vehicles 150
169 000 whatever they're selling
vehicles in the spectrum let's just go
ahead and say the average by 2025 is 80
000. i still think this is very very
bullish here that they would get to an
80 000 dollar average sale per vehicle
but let's say they do end up delivering
200 000 vehicles by then
if if they pull that off
throw in a little bit just a little less
than three percent for leases here that
would get us to about 16.4 billion
dollars of revenue if they had a 25
expense margin which is
not as
good as as tesla but this would still be
very very good in fact i'm going to
adjust honestly i'm going to adjust this
down and say that they have 80 in cost
which puts them a little bit closer to
where neo even sits today
uh so so that means they're spending 80
percent of every dollar in the vehicle
i'm actually producing the vehicle
uh and we throw some other things in
here like interest taxes whatever
now we divide by the amount of shares
outstanding the company has which the
company has uh
like twice as many shares outstanding as
rivie and it's worth noting that and the
price today is eighty dollars let's say
then at a hundred times multiple in 2025
with these figures
lucid would be worth 32 dollars a share
at 100 times multiple in 2025 well wait
a minute it's like twice that right now
exactly so let's let's now adjust this a
little bit so we don't sound like a big
old bear let's go back to that 75
expense ratio which means 25 percent
gross profit margin let's now assume
they bump their average vehicle
revenue to 90 000
and they still deliver 200 000 vehicles
by 2025. at 100 times future earnings
that puts them at about an 81 dollar
stock so you could see how quickly the
valuation can change based on that value
per vehicle and their ramp rate
everything about lucid's valuation comes
down to that ramp rate if that ramp rate
beats
lucid stock will do very well if that
ramp rate misses it will do very poorly
during those misses until it catches
back up to pace so with that said i
personally believe the biggest and most
challenging times for an automaker are
your first
years of ramping and then when you start
expanding to new factories which we know
there'll be a saudi arabia factory at
some point here as well once we get this
arizona facility to scale so i don't
want to sound like a lucid bear by
saying that i think right now at 55 57
whatever
it's it's kind of gone a little nuts
which is fine the stock market does that
but as an investor and lucid you know if
you're an investor and lucid i would
just think to myself is it is it
potentially okay to take some profits to
sell some calls for q1 or whatever and
uh and if i get called out oh well if i
end up selling a well if it runs to 80
you're gonna have to not feel bad about
that in somo right
but if we end up pulling back down to
some of the support levels we have which
these are long-term support levels not
necessarily recent support levels
a lot of these levels were drawn way
back on our candlesticks
but if we end up drawing back down to
say 37 or we draw back down to where we
have multiple different supports between
29 and 30 or worst case scenario we go
back to levels like the channel that we
used to have that 24 to 23 channel
if we go to any of these levels here
it's going to be a lot more attractive
of a company to invest in because at 36
dollars worst case scenario if they only
do three uh 200 000 vehicles hopefully
they do at least that at 80 000 with an
80 expense ratio by 2025 at least your
break even you're not losing in 2025
right and there's still that opium that
hopefully propels it if you can get it
down here i feel like you you start
getting a margin of safety realistically
the real margin of safety is when you're
around 23 24 a share because this is
where you could really go dirty if you
go with 80 000 per vehicle you go with
an 80 expense
and we go with a just a miss here we go
with 150 000 vehicles uh er we're gonna
get a little bit closer see look at that
now you're at 21 per share now you're at
much closer to that lower level and
you're really assuming some in my
opinion worst case scenarios i mean if
they can't in uh one two three
four full years
get to 150 000 vehicles which is
somewhere around 12 000 vehicles a month
12 to 13 000 vehicles a month that's bad
and there should be plenty of writing on
the wall before then that the company is
just totally not on track but i i don't
know that loose it's not going to be
able to pull that off i'm optimistic
and i also think you're going to want to
be around for that potential apple
catalyst it doesn't necessarily have to
be apple it could also be nvidia or
something else
i think it's interesting and and i think
it's a reasonably bullish i would not
buy the stock at these values though
because of this excitement
because even that excitement will wane
once the announcement is made but anyway
these are just some thoughts to think
about if you like the way i think about
stocks do consider checking out the
programs on building your wealth link
down below make sure you use that black
friday coupon that does expire on the
price goes up at 11 59 pm on friday so
do it before you forget i always know
that feeling like oh yeah i'll do it
before then but then you forget and it's
like why didn't i just do it earlier now
i missed it
anyway thank you so much for watching
and we'll see in the next one bye
