Santacruz Silver Mining ( (TSE:SCZ) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Santacruz Silver Mining reported 2025 revenue of $326.4 million, up 15% year over year, with gross profit nearly doubling and adjusted EBITDA almost doubling as well, driven by higher silver-equivalent prices and operational efficiencies that widened realized margins despite higher all-in sustaining costs. Net income fell 74% due to the absence of a large non-recurring gain booked in 2024, but cash, liquid securities and working capital all rose sharply, supported by full repayment of debt to Glencore, a stronger balance sheet and continued cash generation from its Bolivian and Mexican operations, even as total production declined 11% after flooding at the Bolivar mine, which management expects to fully recover by late 2026 while advancing new projects and plant optimizations.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:SCZ) stock is a Hold with a C$18.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Santacruz Silver Mining stock, see the TSE:SCZ Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on SCZ Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, SCZ is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by strong financial performance (rapid revenue growth, high profitability, solid cash conversion, and low leverage). Technicals support an uptrend, but overbought momentum signals raise near-term risk. Valuation is moderate (P/E ~18) with no dividend data to enhance the profile.
