About Alcoa
Alcoa is a vertically integrated aluminum company whose operations include bauxite mining, alumina refining, and manufacturing primary aluminum. It is one of the world's largest bauxite miners and alumina refiners by production volume, but sits outside the top-10 aluminum producers, a list dominated by Chinese companies. 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 was 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.

What the Analysts think about Alcoa
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Alcoa stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Alcoa stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Alcoa’s operating recovery is gaining traction: third-quarter alumina output rose 11% and aluminium output rose 2% sequentially, with the Alumar restart complete. The company expects higher production and shipments in both businesses in the fourth quarter. (Alcoa)
The planned South32 asset purchase would materially expand Alcoa’s bauxite, alumina and aluminium footprint. Alcoa expects about $900 million in net present value from synergies and says the deal should lift earnings per share and free cash flow immediately after closing. (Alcoa)
Alcoa generated $472 million of free cash flow in the third quarter and ended September with $4.4 billion in cash, giving it financial capacity as it prepares to complete the South32 acquisition. (Alcoa)
Earnings remain sensitive to aluminium prices and shipments: third-quarter adjusted EBITDA fell to $789 million from $901 million in the prior quarter, as lower prices and shipments outweighed improved costs and higher alumina prices. (Alcoa)
