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 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.
