What the Analysts think about Century Aluminum

Analyst projections of the future price of Century Aluminum stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Adjusted EBITDA rose to $326.9 million in the second quarter from $231.4 million in the first, and management expects $325 million to $345 million in the third quarter. Stronger aluminium prices and premiums have helped offset input-cost pressures. (Century Aluminum)
The Mt. Holly restart is complete and Iceland’s second potline has returned to near full production, supporting higher output; Century also says its new Jamalco turbine should lower costs as it ramps up. These improvements offer a production and efficiency boost beyond metal-price movements. (Century Aluminum, Investing.com)
Century said its cash exceeded total debt by the end of July, after receiving a $94.3 million tax-credit refund. A stronger balance sheet gives it more room to fund investment and manage operating setbacks. (Century Aluminum)
Glencore accounted for 44% of Century’s consolidated sales in the second quarter. That customer concentration leaves a large share of revenue exposed to any change in the relationship or purchase volumes. (SEC)
A transformer failure at the Iceland smelter disrupted a potline and created a $61.3 million second-quarter impact, net of tax. The restart and planned transformer replacement leave the operation exposed to further execution or equipment problems. (SEC)
The planned Oklahoma smelter faces local permitting and political uncertainty: Reuters reported that Inola extended its permit moratorium through April and planned a referendum on whether the project should proceed. Delays could push back the project’s long-term growth benefits. (Reuters)
