How Southern Copper Stock Gained 60%
Published: October 31, 2025 by: Forbes
Sentiment: Positive
Southern Copper (SCCO)'s stock skyrocketed by 57%, year-to-date, propelled not only by increased revenue and margin improvements but also by a rising P/E multiple that indicates renewed investor confidence. The reasons behind this surge include soaring copper prices, milestones achieved at Tia Maria, impressive earnings, and strategic cost and by-product initiatives—all hinting at a more complex narrative.

                    Southern Copper: The Tia Maria Greenlight Changes Everything (Rating Upgrade)
Published: October 30, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
Southern Copper Corporation delivered another quarter of strong execution, maintaining EBITDA margins near 60% and one of the lowest cash costs in the industry, supported by higher by-product output and disciplined spending. The long-awaited approval of the $1.8B Tía María project in Peru reduces political risk, strengthens SCCO's growth pipeline, and positions the company to add over 500,000 tons of copper capacity by 2030. SCCO stock valuation remains demanding, with EV/EBITDA around 15x and P/E near 27x, but record profitability (ROE ≈ 39%, net margin ≈ 30%) makes the premium more defensible than in previous quarters.

Published: June 13, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative
Southern Copper's financials are strong, with record revenue and cash flow, but the stock trades at very high multiples for a commodity company. Copper's long-term demand outlook is positive, yet current high prices and cyclical risks make buying at these levels unattractive. Grupo México's dominant ownership of SCCO poses governance risks for minority shareholders, including limited influence and potential for privatization at lower prices.
