What the Analysts think about Southern Copper
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Southern Copper stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
By-product production is set to rise sharply in 2025, with zinc output expected to increase by 33% to 173,400 tonnes driven by the fully operational Buenavista Zinc concentrator, enhancing Southern Copper’s revenue diversification beyond copper (SEC Q2 2025 10-Q).
Southern Copper’s cash and cash equivalents increased to $4.1 billion as of March 31, 2025, up from $3.3 billion at year-end 2024, bolstering its liquidity to fund capital projects and dividends without additional debt (SEC Q1 2025 10-Q).
SCCO holds the largest proven copper reserves in the industry, with over 67 million tonnes, underpinning decades of low-cost production and supporting its long-term growth pipeline, including the Michiquillay and Tía María projects (Nasdaq via Zacks).
Copper production guidance for 2025 was cut to 965,300 tonnes, a 0.9% decline from 2024, reflecting operational headwinds and lower ore grades at key mines such as Toquepala and Cuajone (SEC Q2 2025 10-Q).
Moody’s recently shifted Southern Copper’s credit outlook to negative, warning that sovereign risks in Peru and Mexico and high capital expenditure requirements could strain its balance sheet and credit metrics if cash flows weaken (Moody’s report).
Morgan Stanley downgraded SCCO from Hold to Sell, highlighting concerns over its elevated P/E ratio of 22 and potential demand slowdown amid economic headwinds, even as the stock’s valuation remains stretched (Barron’s).
