About Alcoa

Alcoa is a vertically integrated aluminum company whose operations include bauxite mining, alumina refining, and manufacturing primary aluminum. It is the world's largest bauxite miner and alumina refiner by production volume, and the eighth-largest aluminum producer. Profits are closely tied to prevailing commodity prices along the aluminum supply chain.Alcoa was the first mass producer of aluminum, launching the world-changing Hall-Heroult smelting process in the 1880s, making aluminum affordable. It listed as a public company in 1925. In 2016, Alcoa spun off its automotive and aerospace metal parts segment to focus on mining, smelting, and refining. It bought the 40% unowned balance of AWAC in mid-2024, meaning refining assets are now predominantly wholly owned, as with smelting.

What the Analysts think about Alcoa

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Alcoa stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

U.S. aluminum producers like Alcoa profited from President Trump’s June 2025 tariff increase, which sent the Midwest aluminum premium to a record 62.5 cents per pound and supported Alcoa’s realized margins (Reuters).
In March 2025, Alcoa’s wholly-owned subsidiary issued $500 million of 6.125% notes due 2030 and $500 million of 6.375% notes due 2032 to refinance 2027/2028 debt, significantly pushing out maturities and strengthening liquidity (SEC 10-Q).
S&P Global Ratings reaffirmed Alcoa’s ‘BB’ corporate credit rating with a positive outlook on March 3, 2025, citing improved leverage metrics following the Alumina Limited integration and a strong cost-cutting program (S&P Global Ratings).
In Q2 2025, Alcoa’s adjusted net income dropped to $103 million from $568 million in Q1, and adjusted EBITDA fell to $313 million as weaker alumina and aluminum prices along with higher tariff costs pressured profitability (Business Wire).
U.S. aluminum smelters are facing electricity costs nearly twice as high as those in Canada, putting Alcoa’s energy-intensive production at risk as it competes for affordable power in a market dominated by higher-bidding tech companies (FT).
Industry analysts caution that U.S. aluminum tariffs, while boosting premiums, could also increase costs for consumers and manufacturers, ultimately suppressing downstream demand and limiting Alcoa’s shipment growth (Reuters).
