Rivian Stock Puts Pedal To Floor As Analyst Compares EV Brand Power To Tesla
Guggenheim initiated coverage on Rivian Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:RIVN) with a Buy rating Tuesday as the firm expects the electric vehicle company to emerge from the EV winter as a market leader.
周二，古根海姆公司发布报告，对瑞麒汽车股票（NASDAQ：RIVN）进行了覆盖并给出买入评级，因为该公司预计这家电动汽车公司将在电动汽车的冬季中崛起并成为市场领导者。
What To Know: Guggenheim analyst Ronald Jewsikow slapped a Buy rating on Rivian shares and set a price target of $18, as he saw an opportunity ahead for the company to grow its market share by appealing to younger, digitally oriented consumers.
值得关注的是，古根海姆分析师罗纳德·奥夫洛夫斯基（Ronald Jewsikow）给瑞麒股票打出买入的评级，并设定了18美元的目标价，因为他认为该公司有机会通过吸引年轻人和数字化消费者来增长市场份额。
The Guggenheim analyst highlighted a compelling catalyst path around a few main theses that support his optimism about the manufacturer.
古根海姆分析师强调了几个主要的论点，支持他对瑞麒汽车公司的乐观情绪，认为它们将成为引人注目的催化剂。
First, Jewsikow sees an inflection point ahead in terms of financials. The analyst believes now is the time to put some money to work in Rivian stock, citing historical alpha generation related to buying before a company reaches breakeven EBITDA. Jewsikow anticipates a positive inflection point in EBITDA in mid-2026 and expects Rivian to reach breakeven gross margin in the fourth quarter of this year.
首先，奥夫洛夫斯基认为财务方面的拐点即将到来。分析师认为，现在是在瑞麒股票中投入一些资金的时候了，称与企业达到盈亏平衡EBITDA前购买股票有关的历史Alpha产生将是现在的最佳时机。奥夫洛夫斯基预计，EBITDA将在2026年中期出现积极的拐点，并期望瑞麒股票在今年第四季度达到盈亏平衡的毛利率。
"R1 breakeven is important because it should help investors gain confidence in the cost bridge required to R2/R3 profit," Jewsikow said in a new note to clients.
“R1盈亏平衡是很重要的，因为它应该有助于投资者对达到R2/R3利润所需的成本桥梁产生信恳智能，”奥夫洛夫斯基在致客户的新备忘录中写道。
The analyst believes a recent reduction in cash burn will help to alleviate some investor concerns related to the ramp to the R2 and R3 platforms. He also noted that he sees upside to some of the company's guidance, which could help drive further upside in the stock.
另外，分析师认为，最近现金流的减少将有助于缓解一些投资者对R2和R3平台的担忧。他还指出，他看到了公司一些指导方针的上涨空间，这可能有助于推动股票进一步上涨。
It's really all about the R2 and R3 EV models for Jewsikow. The Guggenheim analyst highlighted the upcoming platforms as the largest source of value in the firm's sum of the parts valuation model.
对于奥夫洛夫斯基而言，R2和R3 EV车型才是重点。古根海姆分析师在公司的资产净值估值模型中强调了即将推出的平台作为价值的最大来源。
"We look at the economics of the R2/R3 at scale and believe a high-teens gross margin is the base case. Our analysis of small and mid-size SUVs by brand suggests the market is 7-10x larger than the R1, but could be even larger using the Tesla Model Y (vs. Model X) as an example," Jewsikow said.
“我们查看了各个品牌中小型和中型SUV的经济情况，认为高青少年毛利率是基本情况。例如，我们对特斯拉Model Y（而不是Model X）的研究表明，市场规模是R1的7-10倍，但实际上可能更大，”奥夫洛夫斯基说。
The analyst noted that Rivian owners consistently expressed high levels of customer satisfaction and suggested the Rivian brand is resonating in a way with consumers that no other brand has since Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA).
分析师指出，瑞麒汽车车主始终表达出高度的客户满意度，并暗示瑞麒品牌以一种特有的方式得到了消费者的认可，而这种方式是自特斯拉公司（NASDAQ：TSLA）以来没有其他品牌做到的。
"While EV sentiment remains negative, we believe RIVN is uniquely positioned to demonstrate to a growing share of younger, digitally oriented consumers that EVs are not only cleaner and greener, but can deliver a superior product compared to ICE vehicles enabled by software, technology and thoughtful design elements," Jewsikow said.
“尽管电动汽车的情绪仍然是消极的，我们相信RIVN在向越来越多的年轻、数字化的消费者展示，电动汽车不仅更清洁、更环保，而且在软件、技术和其他设计元素的支持下，可以提供优于传统燃油汽车的产品，”奥夫洛夫斯基说。
RIVN Price Action: Rivian shares were up 6.68% at $11.75 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to Benzinga Pro.
根据Benzinga Pro的数据，周二发行的时候，瑞麒股票上涨了6.68％，价格为11.75美元。
