Lucid Stock Gains Momentum as Vehicle Deliveries Soar 90% Year-Over-Year
Lucid Group's Impressive Vehicle Deliveries
On Monday, Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) announced third-quarter vehicle deliveries and production rates. The automaker delivered 2,781 vehicles in Q3, overshadowing analyst estimates of 2,242 and marking an astonishing 90.8% year-over-year increase.
Production Numbers Underwhelming
Conversely, the production rates were less favorable, with only 1,805 vehicles produced, down from 2,110 in the previous quarter and below predictions of 2,267.
- Deliveries in Q3 last year: 1,457 vehicles
- Production in Q3 last year: 1,550 vehicles
Impact on LCID Stock Performance
These mixed results have sent LCID stock performing positively, rallying by 1.65% on Monday to reach $3.40. Despite a significant 18.31% decline year-to-date, the stock has rebounded by 28.11% in the past six months.
Future Prospects and Investor Sentiment
Lucid's partnership with the Saudi Public Investment Fund, which is investing an additional $1.5 billion to advance production, could harbor more growth. However, to meet the yearly goal of 9,000 vehicles, Lucid needs to ramp up production to over 3,000 vehicles in Q4.
- Watch for the upcoming earnings call on November 7.
- A continuous increase in production and deliveries may shift bearish investor sentiment.
