Interested in Lithium Americas (Argentina) Corp.? Here are five stocks we like better. Caucharí-Olaroz ran near nameplate capacity in Q1, producing about 9,700 tonnes of lithium carbonate and delivering adjusted EBITDA of $106 million, up sharply from $30 million in the prior quarter. The operation’s cash generation improved as realized prices rose to nearly $17,000 per tonne and operating cash costs fell to just under $5,400 per tonne, with management saying more than 90% of EBITDA should convert to free cash flow this year. Management remains focused on growth, including Stage 2 expansion and the longer-term PPG project, while also considering a secondary ASX listing to broaden the investor base without raising capital. 3 lithium stocks at rock bottom prices for EV believers Lithium Americas (Argentina) (NYSE:LAAC) reported a stronger first quarter for 2026, with Chief Executive Officer Sam Pigott saying the company’s Caucharí-Olaroz lithium operation continued to run near design capacity while beginning to generate “meaningful cash flow.” On the earnings call, Pigott said Caucharí-Olaroz produced about 9,700 tonnes of lithium carbonate during the quarter, averaging approximately 97% of nameplate capacity. He said the operation has been able to sustain that level for the past two quarters. → Rocket Lab Just Hit a New All-Time High—Time to Buy or Let It Breathe? Operating cash costs declined to just under $5,400 per tonne in the quarter, a level Pigott said makes Caucharí-Olaroz “one of the lowest cost lithium operations globally.” Realized prices rose to just under $17,000 per tonne in the first quarter from just over $9,000 per tonne in the fourth quarter of 2025. The combination of higher realized prices, stable production and lower costs drove adjusted EBITDA to $106 million in the quarter, compared with $30 million in the prior quarter. The adjusted figure primarily excludes non-cash foreign exchange fluctuations, according to Pigott. → MercadoLibre Boldly Invests in Growth: Discount Deepens Pigott said the project has distributed about $100 million in cash since the beginning of the year, including $48 million attributable to Lithium Argentina’s share. He said those distributions strengthen the balance sheet and demonstrate the operation’s cash-generating capacity.

The Mosaic Company MOS is set to release first-quarter 2026 results before the opening bell on May 11. Mosaic beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in two of the trailing four quarters, and missed it twice. It delivered a trailing four-quarter negative earnings surprise of around 11.6%, on average. The company is expected to have benefited from favorable demand for phosphate and potash, higher fertilizer prices and actions to improve its cost structure in the first quarter amid headwinds from input cost inflation. MOS's shares are down 26.3% in the past year compared with the Zacks Fertilizers industry’s 19.4% rise. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter consolidated revenues for MOS is currently pegged at $2,749.3 million, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 4.9%. Strong demand for fertilizers is expected to have aided Mosaic’s volumes in the first quarter. Attractive farm economics continue to drive demand for fertilizers globally. Farmer economics remain favorable in most global growing regions due to strong crop demand and affordable inputs. The phosphate market is benefiting from higher global demand and low producer and channel inventories. Demand for grains and oilseeds remains high globally. Improved farmer affordability is also driving demand for fertilizers. Our estimate for consolidated sales volumes for the first quarter is 6.1 million tons, suggesting a 5% year over year rise. MOS’s actions to improve its operating cost structure through transformation plans are also expected to have aided its profitability. Mosaic remains on track with its cost-reduction plan, which is expected to drive $250 million in run-rate cost reductions by the end of 2026, having already achieved $150 million in cost reduction targets in 2025, mostly in Fertilizantes. The additional cost reductions are expected to be realized through optimization of the supply chain, automation of administrative functions, absorption of fixed costs and operational cost cuts. Higher fertilizer prices are also expected to have supported the company’s first-quarter performance. Strong demand and supply tightness have led to an uptick in fertilizer prices, with phosphate prices seeing a notable increase. Prices were driven by solid agricultural demand in major markets, Chin...

CLEVELAND, March 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Q4 Highlights: Gross profit of $12.0 million increased 42% from 2024 on 5% lower revenue Operating profit of $7.6 million up 95% over 2024 and 12% over Q3 2025 Net loss of $3.8 million compared with net income of $7.6 million in 2024 2025 net loss includes a $6.0 million after-tax, non-cash pension settlement charge Adjusted EBITDA of $14.3 million improved 59% over 2024 and 14% over Q3 2025 FY Highlights: Net income of $17.6 million, or $2.35/share, versus $33.7 million, or $4.55/share, in 2024 Adjusted EBITDA of $48.9 million compared with $59.4 million in 2024 2024 included $13.6 million of business interruption insurance recoveries NACCO Industries® (NYSE: NC) today announced financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025. Fourth-quarter 2025 operating profit increased over the prior year, reflecting improved results across all three reportable segments, led by Utility Coal Mining. Higher unallocated expenses partly offset these improvements. During the 2025 fourth quarter, the Company recorded a $7.8 million pension settlement charge, $6.0 million after tax, associated with the planned termination of its pension plan. This charge and a significant unfavorable tax effect, primarily due to the true-up of tax expense to the annual effective tax rate, resulted in a net loss for the quarter. "We delivered a strong close to 2025 as our fourth-quarter operating profit built upon the improving profitability and growth we experienced in the third quarter," said J.C. Butler, NACCO President and Chief Executive Officer. "While reported earnings were impacted by the pension settlement charge, our underlying results reflect a business delivering on its potential. We enter 2026 with clear opportunities to build on this momentum as we execute our growth strategy and create long-term value for our shareholders." Liquidity At December 31, 2025, NACCO had outstanding debt of $100.9 million. Total liquidity was $124.2 million, which consisted of $49.7 million of cash and $74.5 million of availability under our revolving credit facility.

(All amounts in US$ unless otherwise indicated) VANCOUVER, British Columbia, November 13, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lithium Americas Corp. (TSX: LAC) (NYSE: LAC) ("Lithium Americas" or the "Company") announced that it has filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which includes the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("Financials") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 ("Q3 2025"), and provided an update on its Thacker Pass lithium project in Humboldt County, Nevada ("Thacker Pass" or the "Project"). Jonathan Evans, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lithium Americas said, "We’re proud to have secured the support of the U.S. Administration, General Motors and our valued partners in advancing Thacker Pass to help onshore large-scale lithium production, strengthen the U.S. supply chain, create high-quality jobs and contribute to America’s long-term energy security and economic resilience." "With the first DOE Loan drawdown from the U.S. Department of Energy now received, we’ve significantly enhanced the Project’s certainty and stability and are full steam ahead on construction. Our workforce continues to grow each week, with approximately 700 workers now on-site and over 80% of detailed engineering complete. We’re making tangible progress across all fronts—from steel and concrete work to site infrastructure and the expansion of our Workforce Hub," added Mr. Evans. Q3 2025 PROJECT AND CONSTRUCTION HIGHLIGHTS During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, $145.9 million of construction capital costs and other project-related costs were capitalized. As of September 30, 2025, a total of $720.0 million of construction capital costs and other project-related costs have been capitalized. The Company continues to progress major construction at Thacker Pass. Mechanical completion of the Phase 1 processing plant is targeted for late 2027. Engineering design surpassed 80% design complete as of September 30, 2025, and is expected to surpass 90% design complete by year end 2025. The higher level of detailed engineering at the early stages of construction helps to de-risk execution in terms of Project schedule and cost. On site at Thacker Pass, the first steel columns have been installed, and permanent plant roads and entrances, as well as laydown yards to store long-lead equipment have been completed. The fabrication yard in Winne...

CLEVELAND, Nov. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Consolidated Q3 2025 Results: Revenues of $76.6 million grew 24%, while gross profit of $10.0 million improved 38% over Q3 2024 Operating profit of $6.8 million up sequentially from Q2 2025 breakeven results; down from prior year $19.7 million, which included $13.6 million of business interruption insurance income Net income of $13.3 million compared with $15.6 million in Q3 2024 NACCO Industries® (NYSE: NC) today announced consolidated results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Third-quarter 2025 earnings improved sequentially due to significant improvements in each of the Company's three operating segments. Compared with the prior-year third quarter, operating profit decreased as 2024 included a $13.6 million benefit for business interruption insurance recoveries. Excluding the insurance recovery income, we had a net improvement in the underlying operating results because substantial year-over-year operating profit improvements in the Contract Mining and Minerals and Royalties segments more than offset lower results in the Utility Coal Mining segment and an increase in unallocated expenses. Significant favorable tax effects in the 2025 third quarter helped minimize the year-over-year decline in net income. "NACCO's third-quarter results demonstrate solid progress in growing our business and improving profitability," said J.C. Butler, NACCO President and Chief Executive Officer. "Although reported operating profit declined year over year due to the insurance recovery, our underlying operational performance was stronger both year over year and sequentially. I expect this momentum to continue to build as we execute our long-term growth strategy." Liquidity At September 30, 2025, the Company had total debt outstanding of $80.2 million. Total liquidity was $152.0 million, which consisted of $52.7 million of cash and $99.3 million of availability under its revolving credit facility. In the 2025 third quarter, the Company paid $1.9 million in dividends. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $7.8 million remaining under its $20 million share repurchase program that expires at the end of 2025.

Two factors often determine stock prices in the long run: earnings and interest rates. Investors can't control the latter, but they can focus on a company's earnings results every quarter. Life and the stock market are both about expectations, and rising above what is expected is often rewarded, while falling short can come with negative consequences. Investors might want to try to capture stronger returns by finding positive earnings surprises. The Zacks Expected Surprise Prediction, or ESP, works by locking in on the most up-to-date analyst earnings revisions because they can be more accurate than estimates from weeks or even months before the actual release date. The thinking is pretty straightforward: analysts who provide earnings estimates closer to the report are likely to have more information. With this in mind, the Expected Surprise Prediction compares the Most Accurate Estimate (being the most recent) against the overall Zacks Consensus Estimate. The percentage difference provides the ESP figure. Now that we understand what the ESP is and how beneficial it can be, let's dive into a stock that currently fits the bill. Coeur Mining (CDE) earns a Zacks Rank #1 right now and its Most Accurate Estimate sits at $0.29 a share, just one day from its upcoming earnings release on October 29, 2025. Coeur Mining's Earnings ESP sits at +14%, which, as explained above, is calculated by taking the percentage difference between the $0.29 Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.25. CDE is one of just a large database of Basic Materials stocks with positive ESPs. Another solid-looking stock is Lithium Americas Corp. (LAC). Lithium Americas Corp. is a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock, and is getting ready to report earnings on November 4, 2025. LAC's Most Accurate Estimate sits at -$0.04 a share seven days from its next earnings release. For Lithium Americas Corp., the percentage difference between its Most Accurate Estimate and its Zacks Consensus Estimate of -$0.05 is +28.74%. Because both stocks hold a positive Earnings ESP, CDE and LAC could potentially post earnings beats in their next reports. Use the Zacks Earnings ESP Filter to turn up stocks with the highest probability of positively, or negatively, surprising to buy or sell before they're reported for profitable earnings season trading.

The stock market enters the third week of the government shutdown after a five-day run of market volatility shaped by US-China trade relations. At the closing bell on Friday, the S&P 500 (^GSPC), tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC), and Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) all managed to eke out wins to cap a volatile week that saw swings for the major indexes each day. This week, investors will get some clarity on the economic picture, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics set to publish the Consumer Price Index (CPI), one of most watched measures of inflation, on Friday after a delay from its originally planned release date of Oct. 15. Figures ranging from import prices to retail sales to jobless claims are likely to remain missing from the calendar amid the ongoing government shutdown. With the shutdown still in effect, the Federal Open Market Committee will also enter its blackout period ahead of the committee's October meeting, which is set to take place Oct. 28-29. In the corporate sector, earnings season for the third quarter is properly underway after bank earnings this past week, and a packed roster of companies is set to report in the week ahead. Some of the week's biggest names include Magnificent Seven stock Tesla (TSLA), chipmaker Intel (INTC), streaming giant Netflix (NFLX), and Coca-Cola (KO), always a marker for retail consumption patterns. This week will also see reports from the defense contracting majors in Northrop Grumman (NOC) and Lockheed Martin (LMT), along with several of the major telephone network operators, including T-Mobile (TMUS) and AT&T (T). After Beijing unveiled a sweeping series of new export controls that curtailed shipments of products with even trace amounts of a group of rare metals, President Trump took to Truth Social to threaten 100% tariffs on all Chinese goods before rolling that threat back.
