Source Localisation using sLORETA

You can refer to the pipelines described in this tutorial:
https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Tutorials/Workflows#Statistics:_Group_analysis.2C_between_subjects-1

I am not sure how to retrieve the scores (generated from the ROIs or scouts) so that I can use them in a different statistical software.

Please post screen captures of the files you have (database explorer + display of these files), describe the measure you would like to extract from them.
Please create a different thread, as this is not related to the initial question posted here.

Lastly, is it ok if I use the source files and do the comparison using SPM 12 or should I go with permutation/parametric test of these source files using brainstorm?

This is up to you to decide what kind of analysis you want to perform on your data.
