Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
Alcoa's 2025 outlook for Alumina segment production and shipments remains unchanged, while Aluminum segment production is also unchanged. However, aluminum shipments are projected to decrease due to delayed restart at the San Ciprián smelter. The company anticipates sequential favorable impacts in the Alumina segment and unfavorable impacts in the Aluminum segment for Q3 2025.
Positive Outlook
- Alumina segment production and shipments are expected to remain unchanged from prior projections (9.5 to 9.7 million metric tons for production and 13.1 to 13.3 million metric tons for shipments).
- Aluminum segment production is expected to remain unchanged from prior projections (2.3 to 2.5 million metric tons).
- Sequential favorable impacts of approximately $20 million are expected in the Alumina Segment Adjusted EBITDA for Q3 2025 due to lower maintenance costs and efficiencies at higher production rates.
- Alumina costs in the Aluminum segment are expected to be favorable by approximately $100 million sequentially in Q3 2025.
- Other expenses for Q3 2025 are expected to remain consistent with Q2 2025.
Challenges Ahead
- 2025 projection for aluminum shipments has decreased to range between 2.5 and 2.6 million metric tons, a reduction of 0.1 to 0.2 million metric tons from the prior projection.
