Grupo Simec SA De CV ( (SIM) ) just unveiled an update.
Grupo Simec reported audited results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, showing a 10% drop in net sales to Ps. 30,291 million as shipments of finished steel fell 6% and average prices declined 4% versus 2024, with sales down 14% abroad and 7% in Mexico. Despite lower revenue, cost of sales fell 13% on cheaper scrap, keeping gross profit roughly flat at Ps. 7,634 million and lifting gross margin to 25%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses rose 8% and other net income improved, helping operating income edge up 1% to Ps. 5,365 million and operating margin to 18%. However, a swing from a Ps. 7,240 million comprehensive financial income in 2024 to a Ps. 2,494 million financial cost in 2025, driven mainly by a shift from a Ps. 5,556 million exchange gain to a Ps. 3,602 million exchange loss, caused net income to plunge 85% to Ps. 1,533 million.
EBITDA increased 1% year on year to Ps. 6,446 million, indicating underlying operating resilience despite weaker volumes and pricing and a much less favorable financial environment. As of December 31, 2025, Simec’s consolidated debt remained minimal, limited to legacy medium-term notes, while quarterly trends improved, with fourth-quarter 2025 net sales up 7% from the third quarter on higher tonnage and stronger demand both in Mexico and abroad.
The most recent analyst rating on (SIM) stock is a Buy with a $34.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Grupo Simec SA De CV stock, see the SIM Stock Forecast page.
