“In the first quarter of 2024, we finalized the terms of our acquisition of Alumina Limited, which will bring strategic, operational, and financial flexibility,” said Alcoa President and CEO William F. Oplinger. “Raw material prices and markets are improving, and we are implementing near-term improvements to further strengthen Alcoa for the future.”
First Quarter 2024 Results
- Production: Alumina production decreased 4 percent sequentially to 2.67 million metric tons on lower production from the Australia refineries. In Aluminum, Alcoa produced 542,000 metric tons, consistent with the fourth quarter’s strong output.
- Shipments: In the Alumina segment, third-party shipments of alumina increased 6 percent sequentially primarily due to increased trading. In Aluminum, total shipments decreased 1 percent sequentially.
- Revenue: The Company’s total third-party revenue of $2.6 billion was consistent with the prior quarter. In the Alumina segment, third-party revenue increased 6 percent due to the higher average realized third-party price for alumina and higher shipments. In the Aluminum segment, third-party revenue decreased 3 percent due to the lower average realized third-party price for aluminum, driven by the unfavorable sequential impact of the Alumar smelter restart hedge program which ended in December 2023 and timing of shipments.
- Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation was $252 million, or $1.41 per share. Sequentially, the results reflect lower average realized third-party prices for aluminum and higher production costs, partially offset by lower energy and raw material costs. Additionally, the results include a charge of $197 million related to the curtailment of the Kwinana refinery, and reflect the non-recurrence of a charge to tax expense of $152 million to record a valuation allowance on Alcoa World Alumina Brasil Ltda. (AWAB) deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter 2023.
- Adjusted net loss was $145 million, or $0.81 per share, excluding the impact from net special items of $107 million. Notable special items include $197 million related to the curtailment of the Kwinana refinery discussed above, partially offset by tax and noncontrolling interest impacts of $117 million.
-
Adjusted EBITDA excluding special items was $132 million, a sequential increase of $43 million primarily due to lower energy and raw material costs, partially offset by lower average realized third-party price for aluminum and higher production costs.
Production costs increased primarily due to the non-recurrence of the full year benefit of $36 million for the credit related to Section 45X of the Inflation Reduction Act recorded in the fourth quarter 2023.
- Cash: Alcoa ended the quarter with a cash balance of $1.4 billion. Cash used for operations was $223 million. Cash provided from financing activities was $754 million primarily related to the net proceeds from the debt issuance of $737 million. Cash used for investing activities was $117 million primarily related to capital expenditures of $101 million.
- Working capital: For the first quarter, Receivables from customers of $0.9 billion, Inventories of $2.0 billion and Accounts payable, trade of $1.6 billion comprised DWC working capital. Alcoa reported 47 days working capital, a sequential increase of eight days. The increase is primarily due to typical first quarter increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accounts payable.
Key Actions
Strategic
- Alumina Limited: On March 11, 2024, Alcoa announced that it entered into a binding Scheme Implementation Deed with Alumina Limited (ASX: AWC), under which Alcoa will acquire Alumina Limited in an all-scrip, or all-stock, transaction. The acquisition of Alumina Limited will enhance Alcoa’s position as a leading pure play, upstream aluminum company globally, while simplifying the Company’s corporate structure and governance, resulting in greater operational flexibility and strategic optionality.
Operational
- San Ciprián complex: During the first quarter of 2024, Alcoa completed the restart of approximately 6 percent of pots at the smelter in compliance with the February 2023 updated viability agreement. Although both energy and API prices improved during the quarter, the improvements are insufficient for the long-term viability of the complex for Alcoa. Additionally, near-term government support remains unlikely. While continuing to optimize the smelter and refinery operations and preserve cash, and as part of Alcoa's efforts to find a long-term solution for the complex, Alcoa initiated a process for the potential sale of the complex during the first quarter of 2024 and anticipates completing the bid process by June 2024.
- Warrick Operations: During the first quarter 2024, the Company completed the restart of one potline (54,000 mtpy) that was curtailed in July 2022.
- Kwinana refinery: On January 8, 2024, the Company announced the decision to curtail the Kwinana refinery in Australia to be completed in the second quarter of 2024.
Financial
- Green bond issuance: On March 21, 2024, the Company closed an offering of $750 million aggregate principal amount of 7.125 percent senior notes due in 2031. This was the Company’s first notes issuance under its new Green Finance Framework, which prioritizes climate change mitigation expenditures related to circular or low carbon products, pollution prevention technologies, renewable energy, and water management. Net proceeds from the issuance, which can be allocated to qualifying expenditures on a two year look back and three year look forward, are expected to cover expenses associated with both new and existing decarbonization and water management projects, research and development, renewable energy, and the production of low carbon alumina and aluminum products. The Company does not expect to allocate part of the net proceeds to significant capital investments in breakthrough technologies as those are not expected to occur in the remainder of this decade.
- Productivity and competitiveness program: In January 2024, the Company initiated a productivity and competitiveness program across its global operations and functions. The program is part of the Company’s objective to improve overall competitiveness and profitability and includes a target to save approximately 5 percent of operating costs, exclusive of raw materials, energy and transportation costs, which are already under active management and cost control programs. Total savings are expected to approximate $100 million on a run rate basis and to be achieved by the first quarter of 2025.
2024 Outlook
The following outlook does not include reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income, including transformation, intersegment eliminations and other corporate Adjusted EBITDA; operational tax expense; and other expense; each excluding special items, to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because it is impractical to forecast certain special items, such as restructuring charges and mark-to-market contracts without unreasonable efforts due to the variability and complexity associated with predicting the occurrence and financial impact of such special items. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
Alcoa expects 2024 total Alumina segment production and shipments to remain unchanged from the prior projection, ranging between 9.8 and 10.0 million metric tons, and between 12.7 and 12.9 million metric tons, respectively. The difference between production and shipments reflects trading volumes and externally sourced alumina to fulfill customer contracts due to the curtailment of the Kwinana refinery.
Alcoa expects 2024 total Aluminum segment production and shipments to remain unchanged from the prior projection, ranging between 2.2 and 2.3 million metric tons, and between 2.5 and 2.6 million metric tons, respectively.
Within second quarter 2024 Alumina Segment Adjusted EBITDA, the Company expects sequential unfavorable impacts of $20 million related to higher seasonal maintenance and other mining costs for the Australia operations.
Within second quarter 2024 Aluminum Segment Adjusted EBITDA, the Company expects favorable raw material prices and production costs to be fully offset by higher energy costs. Alumina costs in the Aluminum segment are expected to be unfavorable by $15 million sequentially.
Alcoa expects Interest expense to approximate $145 million for the year, an increase from the prior projection as a result of the green bond issuance.
Other expenses for the first quarter of 2024 included unfavorable impacts of approximately $20 million related to foreign currency losses that may not recur.
Based on current alumina and aluminum market conditions, Alcoa expects second quarter operational tax expense to approximate $40 million to $50 million, which may vary with market conditions and jurisdictional profitability.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains reference to certain financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Alcoa Corporation believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because such measures provide both additional information about the operating performance of Alcoa Corporation and insight on the ability of Alcoa Corporation to meet its financial obligations by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the impact of, among others, “special items” as defined by the Company, non-cash items in nature, and/or nonoperating expense or income items. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Certain definitions, reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and additional details regarding management’s rationale for the use of the non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the schedules to this release.

The difference between segment totals and consolidated amounts is in Corporate. |
|
(1) |
Alcoa Corporation’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus an add-back for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. |
(2) |
Transformation includes, among other items, the Adjusted EBITDA of previously closed operations. |
(3) |
Corporate expenses are composed of general administrative and other expenses of operating the corporate headquarters and other global administrative facilities, as well as research and development expenses of the corporate technical center. |
(4) |
Other includes certain items that are not included in the Adjusted EBITDA of the reportable segments. |

Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted and Diluted EPS – as adjusted are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these measures are meaningful to investors because management reviews the operating results of Alcoa Corporation excluding the impacts of restructuring and other charges, various tax items, and other special items (collectively, “special items”). There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes it is appropriate to consider Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation and Diluted EPS determined under GAAP as well as Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted and Diluted EPS – as adjusted.
|
|
(1) |
Other special items include the following: |
|
|
(2) |
Discrete and other tax items are generally unusual or infrequently occurring items, changes in law, items associated with uncertain tax positions, or the effect of measurement-period adjustments and include the following: |
|
|
(3) |
The tax impact on special items is based on the applicable statutory rates in the jurisdictions where the special items occurred. The noncontrolling interest impact on special items represents Alcoa’s partner’s share of certain special items.
|
(4) |
In any period with a Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation (GAAP or as adjusted), the average number of shares applicable to diluted earnings per share exclude certain share equivalents as their effect is anti-dilutive. |

| Alcoa Corporation’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus an add-back for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors because Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information with respect to Alcoa Corporation’s operating performance and the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. | |

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is meaningful to investors because management reviews cash flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital expenditures, which are necessary to maintain and expand Alcoa Corporation’s asset base and are expected to generate future cash flows from operations. It is important to note that Free Cash Flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not deducted from the measure. |

When cash exceeds total debt, the measure is expressed as net cash. |

Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure.

When cash exceeds total debt, the measure is expressed as net cash.
Adjusted net debt and proportional adjusted net debt are also non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these additional measures are meaningful to investors because management also assesses Alcoa Corporation’s leverage position after considering available cash that could be used to repay outstanding debt and net pension/OPEB liability, net of the portion of those items attributable to noncontrolling interest (NCI). |

| DWC working capital and Days working capital are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that these measures are meaningful to investors because management uses its working capital position to assess Alcoa Corporation’s efficiency in liquidity management. | |

Days working capital is calculated as DWC working capital divided by the quotient of Sales and number of days in the quarter. |
