"General Motors CEO Mary Barra spoke with RBC analyst Joseph Spak at an investor conference Monday. The conversation eventually turned to the deal just struck with Nikola —and her comments might have helped Nikola stock regain some ground lost in the aftermath of a short seller’s report.
Nikola (ticker: NKLA) is a big issue for General Motors (GM) investors these days after the pair announced a broad collaboration this past week. GM is taking an equity stake in the alternative fuel trucking pioneer as well as providing manufacturing and engineering support for Nikola. GM will also supply battery and fuel cell components for Nikola products.
Since the deal, Nikola (ticker: NKLA) shares have gyrated, rising 41% Tuesday, after the deal was announced. The stock then fell 24% Thursday and Friday after a short seller called Hindenburg Research published a report questioning some of Nikola’s technological claims among other issues.
Nikola released a six-page document Monday refuting Hindenburg’s claims. Nikola shares traded down early Tuesday, but were up almost 12% as of 1:30 p.m.
Barra’s conference comments might have helped Nikola stock rebound.
“So our company has worked with a lot of different partners and we’re [a] very, very capable team that has done the appropriate diligence,” said Barra when asked about the terms of the Nikola deal. “On the strength of the deal we put together, it validates our technology, it allows us to have more people using the technology, which gives us the advantage of scale and which will help us drive costs down. And then from a fuel cell perspective, using the Hydrotec fuel cell technology, and entering a new segment for us, a growth segment, again validating our fuel cell technology.”
On the question of why manufacture a competitor’s truck Barra responded: “We find it’s another opportunity for General Motors. I mean I think the industry has been....accused in the past of not being as efficient as it could be with technology and with leveraging engineering and capital. So the partnership that we have with Nikola, and Honda for that matter, is doing exactly that. It’s leveraging that technology. Instead of everyone doing a slightly different version of it, that will include the royalty or licensing or revenue in many different forms coming to General Motors as well as taking the costs down as the whole industry transforms and transfers to EV models.” Barra says GM is committed to an all EV future.
GM partners with Honda on autonomous driving and fuel cell technologies.
GM referred Barron’s to the public statements made after the Nikola deal was signed when we asked for comment on the short-selling report this past week. GM referred Barron’s to Nikola when asked about the rebuttal.
Since announcing plans to become a publicly traded company by merging with a SPAC, Nikola, shares are up almost 180%, better than comparable returns of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average over the same span.
Year to date, GM stock is down about 14%.
Spak covers both Nikola and GM shares. He rates GM shares the Buy and has a $44 price target for the stock. He rates Nikola shares Hold and has a $49 price target for the stock."
