[SMM Analysis] LCO Production in January 2025 Down 7% MoM, Demand Expected to Recover After Chinese New Year

  • Feb 06, 2025, at 7:29 am
LCO production in January 2025 continued to decline, down 7% MoM from December. The main reason was the impact of the Chinese New Year holiday, which led to production line shutdowns at material manufacturers, resulting in an overall decrease in the production schedule. Demand side, the stockpiling pace of battery cell manufacturers also slowed down due to the year-end, leading to a reduction in LCO orders. Demand is expected to recover after the Chinese New Year.

In January 2025, LCO production continued to decline, down 7% MoM from December. The main reason was the impact of the Chinese New Year holiday, which led to production line shutdowns at material manufacturers, causing an overall drop in the production schedule. Demand side, the stockpiling pace of battery cell manufacturers also slowed down due to the year-end, resulting in reduced LCO orders. It is expected that production in February will continue to show a slight downward trend, decreasing by 5% MoM. However, stimulated by the consumer electronics subsidy policy, terminal digital market demand is expected to surge after the holiday, driving a recovery in LCO market demand and an increase in procurement volume.
