Santacruz Silver Mining

Santacruz Silver posted revenue of $113.46 million in the second quarter (+55% year‑on‑year) and adjusted EBITDA growth of 74%. Silver production rose 17% quarter‑on‑quarter while all‑in sustaining costs fell to $21.87/oz (-24% q/q). Cash on hand exceeded $100 million after receipts, but reported net income declined to about $2 million due to non‑cash fair‑value losses and one‑off tax charges. Management expects continued production improvements, plans a TSX uplisting and a share buyback, and anticipates first production at Soracaya toward the end of Q4 2026. » Altro su de.investing.com

Santacruz Silver’s share rose about 7% after the silver price topped $110 per ounce and the company reported strong Q4 2025 production numbers. In the fourth quarter it produced 3.74 million ounces silver equivalent (+9% quarter-on-quarter), including 1.34 million ounces of silver (+8%); zinc and lead production also increased markedly. The recovery at the Bolívar mine (+34% q/q) was the main driver despite ongoing remediation after a flood; the company expects full restoration by Q4 2026. Full-year 2025 production was 14.4 million ounces silver equivalent, an 11% decline from 2024, mainly due to the Bolívar disruption. » Altro su de.investing.com
