Insights

Routine dividends: $0.90 cash plus 0.0085-share stock payout.

Southern Copper declared a mixed distribution: a cash dividend of $0.90 per share and a stock dividend of 0.0085 shares per share. This pairs immediate cash return with a small share issuance to holders of record on November 12, 2025, payable on November 28, 2025.

Cash in lieu of fractional stock will use a reference price of $129.74 set from the average of the high and low on October 23, 2025. The earnings release was furnished under Item 2.02, which generally signals informational disclosure without being incorporated by reference.

Key near-term event is the November 28, 2025 payment date. Actual investor impact depends on share count and individual tax treatment; the filing does not provide additional financial metrics in this excerpt.
