[CICC: 2022 lithium plate investment focuses on "sustainable growth capacity"] China International Capital Corporation believes that the overall valuation of the lithium industry is on the low side, and lithium plate investment in 2022 focuses on "sustainable growth capacity". After the previous adjustment, we assume that the average price of electric carbon in 2022-2023 is 200000 yuan / ton, and the average PE of the corresponding lithium plate in 2022-2023 is 30x and 22x, respectively, which is significantly lower than the high-growth track where the lithium demand CAGR is as high as 38% in 2021-2025. Given that lithium prices are already high, the sensitivity of sector valuations to price increases has decreased, and the excess earnings of the lithium sector in 2022 will come from sustainable growth capacity to digest the company's short-term valuation and improve its long-term valuation. Companies with the ability of sustainable growth need to meet three major conditions: the first is governance mechanism and entrepreneurship, the second is internalized industrial capacity, and the third is strong investment and financing capacity.
