What the Analysts think about Southern Copper
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Southern Copper stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Southern Copper stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Third-quarter sales reached a record $4.70 billion and net income rose 63% to $1.80 billion; operating cash flow was up 43%. This shows strong cash generation, although higher metal prices were a key driver. (SEC)
Tía María was 49.6% complete at the end of September, and Southern Copper says Tía María and El Pilar could add about 156,000 tonnes of refined copper a year. That offers a route to annual production above one million tonnes as the projects come on stream. (SEC)
Mined copper output fell 2.9% year to date, with lower ore grades weighing on Peruvian operations. Zinc and molybdenum output also declined, pointing to volume pressure across several products. (SEC)
Cash cost before by-product credits rose 10.2% year on year to $2.46 per pound, while El Pilar’s budget increased from $310 million to $551 million. Higher operating and project costs could erode the benefit of strong metal prices. (SEC, BNamericas)
