Existing underground workings at Nechí are expected to accelerate ramp-up once the permit is approved, with management targeting approval before the end of 2026. The mine is projected to add about 250 tonnes per day of feed to El Bagre, translating into roughly 25,000 additional gold equivalent ounces annually and positioning Nechí as a significant contributor to Soma’s growth strategy in Colombia.

Spark’s Take on SOMA Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, SOMA is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by mixed financial performance: strong operating margins and solid cash conversion are offset by declining revenue, falling free cash flow, and high leverage. Technicals are supportive due to a clear uptrend, but overbought momentum indicators raise near-term pullback risk. Valuation is only fair given the P/E and lack of dividend yield data.
