Lucid Group Inc's stock fell by 3.58% today, hitting a 52-week low amid broader market weakness, with the Nasdaq-100 down 0.65% and the S&P 500 down 0.56%.
Despite achieving record deliveries of over 4,000 vehicles in Q3, Lucid's stock has dropped approximately 52% over the past three months due to cash flow constraints and missed financial estimates, raising concerns among investors regarding the company's long-term capital needs. This decline is further compounded by the ongoing production challenges related to the Gravity model and the overall market sentiment.
The implications of these developments suggest that while Lucid is making strides in vehicle deliveries, the financial pressures and market conditions are causing significant investor apprehension, leading to the stock's current low point.
Wall Street analysts forecast LCID stock price to rise over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for LCID is 16.73 USD with a low forecast of 10.00 USD and a high forecast of 30.00 USD.

Reason
Benchmark lowered the firm's price target on Lucid Group to $30 from $70 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after Lucid priced $875M of senior unsecured convertible notes due November 2031 plus a $100M greenshoe, at a 7.00% coupon and a ~22.5% conversion premium to the $16.99 last sale, noting that the firm's target is adjusted for the company's reverse split. At full conversion, the new notes would add about 42M shares on the base size, or about 47M including the shoe, the analyst estimates.
