Lucid Group (LCID) aksjer utvidet gevinstene tirsdag etter at samkjøringsgiganten Uber Technologies (UBER) mer enn doblet sin andel i elbilprodusenten (EV) til 11,5 %.
Kunngjøringen kommer bare dager etter at UBER signerte en avtale om å kjøpe 35 000 Lucid-kjøretøy og økte sin samlede kapitalforpliktelse til selskapet til 500 millioner dollar.

Lucid-aksjen er fortsatt ikke verdt å kjøpe i 2026
Til tross for overskriftenes begeistring, sliter Lucid fortsatt med betydelige økonomiske utfordringer som tilsier at man bør spille EV-aksjen med forsiktighet på dagens nivåer.
Selskapets kostnader for inntekter fortsetter å overstige den faktiske inntekten, og det i stor grad. I Q4 var kostnadene for salg for eksempel 945 millioner dollar mot en total inntekt på omtrent 523 millioner dollar.
Lucid har også kunngjort sin første kvartalsinntekt, som var 35 % lavere enn forventningene.
Selv fra et teknisk perspektiv er LCID-aksjer like lite attraktive. Per skrivende er de fortsatt tydelig under sine store glidende gjennomsnitt (MAs), noe som forsterker at bjørnene har full kontroll over flere tidsrammer.
Utvanningrisikoer fortsetter å plage LCID-aksjer
Aksjeutvanning er fortsatt en sentral bekymring for LCID-investorer.
Selskapets aksjer utestående har vokst omtrent dobbelt så raskt som rivalen Rivian Automotive (RIVN) de siste tre årene.
Og i motsetning til RIVN, som oppnådde sitt første hele år med positiv bruttofortjeneste i 2025, har Lucid ennå ikke oppnådd milepælen om lønnsomhet.
Merk at Lucid-aksjer har en historikk med å avslutte april nesten 12 % i rødt og kun oppnå en gevinst på 0,61 % i mai – et sesongmessig mønster som gjør dem enda mindre attraktive å eie på kort sikt.
Viktigere er det at prediksjonsmarkeder har priset sannsynligheten for at LCID erklærer konkurs før 2027 til et bekymringsfullt 44,5 %.
Hvordan Wall Street anbefaler å spille Lucid Group
Til tross for de nevnte risikoene, ser Wall Street fortsatt på Lucid Group som undervurdert på dagens nivåer.
Ifølge Barchart er konsensusvurderingen for LCID-aksjen kun en "Hold", men gjennomsnittskursmålet på rundt 13 dollar signaliserer et potensielt oppsving på hele 85 % fra her.

"Lucid's negative gross margins and reliance on continuous equity dilution make the current valuation a value trap despite the Uber partnership."
The Uber-Lucid partnership is a tactical lifeline, not a fundamental pivot. While the $500 million capital injection and 35,000-vehicle order provide a necessary liquidity bridge, they don't solve the core issue: Lucid's unit economics are fundamentally broken. A gross margin that remains deeply negative—where it costs more to build a car than the revenue it generates—is unsustainable regardless of order volume. With dilution accelerating and a 44.5% bankruptcy probability in prediction markets, the stock is effectively a distressed asset. The 85% upside target mentioned is a relic of analyst models that likely fail to account for the sheer scale of future equity raises required to keep the lights on.

If the Uber partnership serves as a proof-of-concept for fleet-scale adoption, Lucid could achieve the manufacturing efficiencies needed to flip gross margins positive sooner than the current burn rate suggests.

"Uber's deal provides a cash lifeline but fails to resolve Lucid's crippling negative gross margins and execution risks, with 44.5% bankruptcy probability underscoring existential threats."
Uber's doubled stake to 11.5%, 35,000-vehicle order, and $500M capital commitment inject vital cash into Lucid (LCID), easing immediate dilution fears after shares outstanding grew 2x faster than Rivian (RIVN) over 3 years. Yet Q4 cost of sales ($945M) crushed revenue ($523M), yielding -80% gross margins; Q1 revenue missed estimates by 35%, confirming production woes. Shares languish below major MAs, bears dominate technically. Prediction markets peg 44.5% bankruptcy odds pre-2027—far higher than peers. Wall Street's $13 PT (85% upside) ignores no profitability path versus RIVN's 2025 gross profit milestone.

Uber's fleet validation could unlock enterprise orders from other ride-hailers, scaling Lucid's Gravity SUV production to finally achieve positive gross margins and outpace RIVN's trajectory.

"Uber's capital infusion buys time but doesn't fix Lucid's core problem: negative gross margins and persistent cash burn. In Q4, cost of revenue ($945m) exceeded revenue ($523m), and Q1 revenue missed estimates by about 35%, confirming production woes. Shares languish below major MAs, bears dominate technically. Prediction markets peg 44.5% bankruptcy odds pre-2027—far higher than peers. Wall Street's $13 price target (85% upside) is noise without a path to unit economics improvement."
The article conflates headline noise with fundamental improvement. Uber's $500M commitment and 35k vehicle order are real, but they're contingent on Lucid hitting production and delivery targets—which it hasn't. The Q1 revenue miss of 35% below consensus is damning; it suggests guidance itself is unreliable. More critically: Uber's stake dilutes existing shareholders and may be structured with preferential terms (warrants, board seats) that aren't disclosed here. The 44.5% bankruptcy probability priced by prediction markets isn't fringe—it's material. Wall Street's $13 price target (85% upside) ignores no profitability path versus RIVN's 2025 gross profit milestone. Seasonal April-May weakness looms.

Uber's $500M vote of confidence plus 35k pre-orders represent genuine demand signal and a lifeline that materially extends runway; if Lucid executes even 50% of deliveries, gross margin compression narrows sharply and the bankruptcy risk reprices lower.

"Without a credible path to sustained gross margins and a clear production ramp, the Uber deal is liquidity + validation, not a cure, and the downside risk for LCID remains high."
Uber's move to 11.5% of Lucid and a $500 million commitment is a liquidity and validation signal, but it doesn't solve Lucid's core problems: negative gross margins and a 35% revenue miss suggest execution risk is existential, not cyclical.
Người phản biện
The strongest counter is that Uber's investment could actually de-risk Lucid's financing and secure a credible ramp with a meaningful margin lift if production scales on schedule. If Lucid misses ramp or margin targets, the relief rally from Uber fades quickly.

"The market is ignoring the potential for predatory warrant structures in the Uber deal that could worsen long-term dilution."
Claude, you’re right to highlight the missing disclosure on warrant structures. Everyone is treating this $500M as a standard equity infusion, but if these are structured as convertible debt or warrants with deep-in-the-money strikes, the effective dilution is being massively understated by current models. We are ignoring the 'hidden' cost of capital here; if Lucid is paying a premium in equity to secure this order, the unit economics are actually getting worse, not better, despite the volume.

"Saudi PIF dominance and Uber alignment materially lower bankruptcy risk beyond what's discussed, though execution remains pivotal."
Gemini, warrants may hide dilution, but all panelists miss Lucid's $7.5B cash pile (post-deal runway to 2026) backed by PIF's 60% stake—Saudi sovereign wealth won't let it fail lightly. Uber's 11.5% adds aligned U.S. partner for fleet scaling. Bankruptcy odds (44.5%) priced this in pre-announcement; repricing already underway. Key risk unmentioned: Gravity SUV certification delays could still torpedo deliveries.

"PIF's backing extends runway but doesn't guarantee profitability; Gravity certification delays could force another capital raise before margins improve, collapsing the thesis."
Grok's $7.5B runway claim needs scrutiny. PIF's 60% stake and 'won't let it fail' logic is circular—sovereign wealth funds have walked away before (see Softbank's WeWork). More critically: runway-to-2026 assumes zero acceleration in burn. Q4 cash burn was ~$400M/quarter; if production ramps, capex spikes before margins flip. Gravity certification delays aren't just a risk—they're the linchpin. Without them, Uber's 35k order sits in backlog while cash drains. That's the real bankruptcy trigger, not equity structure.

"Gravity certification delays threaten Lucid's production ramp and could nullify the Uber liquidity relief if timing slips and capex rise."
Grok’s optimism hinges on Gravity certification and a clean cash runway to 2026; but certification delays are the single biggest derailment Lucid faces and they’re unpriced in your calc. If Gravity slips to 2027 or requires another $2–3B of capex, Uber’s cash may only postpone, not solve, the burn. PIF backing helps, but sovereigns don’t guarantee execution risk, and a delayed ramp keeps negative margins and dilution pressures intact.
