The table below reflects expected outcomes for the total company based on recently observed lithium market price scenarios, and are unchanged from the prior quarter.

All three scenarios assume flat market pricing flowing through Energy Storage’s current contract book. Scenarios 2 also assume spodumene pricing averages 10% of the lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) price, while other costs are assumed to be constant.
