Company reaffirms 2011 global aluminum demand growth projection of 12
percent
Alcoa (NYSE: AA) announced today first quarter 2011 income from
continuing operations of $309 million, or $0.27 per share, a 20 percent
improvement over fourth quarter 2010, led by improved pricing and
growing demand for aluminum in major end markets. Income from continuing
operations, excluding a negative impact for special items of $8 million,
or $0.01 per share, was $0.28 per share.
First quarter 2011 income from continuing operations was the highest
since second quarter 2008, and compares to fourth quarter 2010 income
from continuing operations of $258 million, or $0.24 per share, and a
first quarter 2010 loss from continuing operations of $194 million, or
$0.19 per share. Fourth quarter 2010 income from continuing operations
included a $35 million, or $0.03 per share, positive impact for special
items, while the loss from continuing operations in first quarter 2010
included a $295 million, or $0.29 per share, negative impact for special
items.
Special items in first quarter 2011 included costs associated with
restructuring, the acquisition of the aerospace fastener business of the
TransDigm group and the acquisition of full ownership of carbothermic
aluminum production technology, partially offset by favorable
mark-to-market changes on certain power derivative contracts.
Net income for first quarter 2011 was $308 million, or $0.27 per share,
compared to net income in fourth quarter 2010 of $258 million, or $0.24
per share, and a net loss in first quarter 2010 of $201 million, or
$0.20 per share.
The improvement over fourth quarter 2010 results was driven by higher
realized prices for alumina and aluminum and growing demand for aluminum
products in major end markets, along with productivity improvements.
These were offset somewhat by a weaker U.S. dollar, along with higher
energy and materials costs. Alcoa reaffirmed the Company′s projection
that global aluminum demand would grow 12 percent in 2011 on top of the
13 percent growth rate in 2010.
'It was an excellent first quarter as we improved profitability across
all business segments, set profit records in our midstream and
downstream businesses and grew substantially,' said Alcoa Chairman and
CEO Klaus Kleinfeld. 'This was a total team effort.
'Our outlook for the rest of 2011 and beyond remains very positive due
to the world's growing population, increasing urbanization, and
aluminum's advantages as a light, strong and recyclable material.'
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $955 million, up 22 percent
from fourth quarter 2010, up 60 percent from first quarter 2010, and the
best quarterly performance since third quarter 2008. Adjusted EBITDA
margin improved to 16.0 percent for the quarter, compared to 13.8
percent in fourth quarter 2010 and 12.2 percent in first quarter 2010.
Revenue for first quarter 2011 was $6.0 billion, an increase of 22
percent over first quarter 2010 and 5 percent over fourth quarter 2010.
Third-party pricing increased in the quarter for alumina (15 percent)
and aluminum (7 percent) compared to fourth quarter 2010. Third-party
pricing also increased compared to first quarter 2010 for both alumina
(21 percent) and aluminum (15 percent).
End markets showed continued revenue growth in the first quarter,
including automotive (30 percent), aerospace (7 percent), packaging (14
percent), industrial products (13 percent), and commercial
transportation (12 percent), compared to fourth quarter 2010. Compared
to first quarter 2010, revenues were up in aerospace (20 percent),
packaging (45 percent), building and construction (26 percent), and
commercial transportation (37 percent).
Both Flat-Rolled Products and Engineered Products and Solutions segments
turned in record performance for the quarter. Flat-Rolled Products′
adjusted EBITDA was a first-quarter record at $173 million. Engineered
Products and Solutions set a record for highest-ever adjusted EDITDA
margin at 18.4 percent.
Alcoa is well on track to meet the Company′s 2011 financial targets,
with debt-to-capital ratio improving to 33.6 percent, 130 basis points
better than fourth quarter 2010. Capital spending excluding the Ma′aden
project was $204 million in the quarter, 14 percent of the 2011 target.
Expenditures on the Ma′aden project were also on track at $85 million.
An investment in working capital to support continued strong growth in
end markets, coupled with higher realized pricing, resulted in cash used
in operations of $236 million and negative free cash flow of $440
million.
Segment Information
Alumina
After-tax operating income (ATOI) in the first quarter was $142 million,
an increase of 118 percent compared with fourth quarter 2010. Adjusted
EBITDA rose to $286 million, a sequential increase of 59 percent. A 15
percent improvement in realized alumina price was partially offset by
higher raw material and energy costs, as well as the cost of a labor
contract settlement in Australia. Alumina production in the first
quarter declined slightly from the previous quarter to 4 million metric
tons (mt).
Primary Metals
ATOI in the first quarter was $202 million, an increase of 13 percent
over fourth quarter 2010. During the first quarter, improved realized
pricing and productivity were offset by higher energy, energy derivative
and raw material costs. As previously announced, capacity was restarted
at the Massena, Intalco and Wenatchee plants, resulting in $9 million of
associated start-up costs. Primary production was down 9,000 mt this
quarter, but up slightly on a per-day basis. Adjusted EBITDA per metric
ton continues to demonstrate consistent improvement, increasing to $438
per metric ton in the first quarter, up from $436 per metric ton in
fourth quarter 2010.
Flat-Rolled Products
Revenue in the first quarter was $1,961 million, up 32 percent
year-over-year and 17 percent sequentially. ATOI in the first quarter
was $81 million, an increase of 53 percent compared to fourth quarter
2010 and a record first quarter performance. Adjusted EBITDA also came
in at a record level of $173 million, up 25 percent sequentially.
Sequential ATOI and adjusted EBITDA growth were driven by stronger
pricing in North America and Europe, a better mix of products and higher
volumes, somewhat offset by alloying cost pressure and rising regional
premiums. Both Russia and China continue to see positive trends, with
third-party volumes up approximately 60 percent in Russia and
approximately 90 percent in China, compared to first quarter 2010.
Engineered Products and Solutions
Revenue in the first quarter was $1,247 million, up 16 percent
year-over-year and 3 percent sequentially. ATOI in the first quarter was
$130 million, up 15 percent sequentially from fourth quarter 2010,
driven by volume and productivity improvements. Adjusted EBITDA margin
came in at a record 18.4 percent, up 170 basis points from fourth
quarter 2010 adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.7 percent. EPS continues to
deliver record results compared to previous years, supported by a strong
portfolio of innovative products and productivity improvements.
Alcoa will hold its quarterly conference call at 5:00 PM Eastern Time
on April 11, 2011 to present the quarter′s results.The meeting
will be webcast via alcoa.com.Call information and related

Alcoa′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 that this
measure is meaningful to investors because Adjusted EBITDA provides
additional information with respect to Alcoa′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 that
this measure is meaningful to investors because management reviews cash
flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital
expenditures due to the fact that these expenditures are considered
necessary to maintain and expand Alcoa′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.

Income from continuing operations attributable to Alcoa ? as adjusted is
a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure is
meaningful to investors because management reviews the operating results
of Alcoa excluding the impacts of restructuring and other charges,
discrete tax items, and other special items. There can be no assurances
that additional restructuring and other charges, discrete tax items, and
other special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for
this limitation, management believes that it is appropriate to consider
both Income from continuing operations attributable to Alcoa determined
under GAAP as well as Income from continuing operations attributable to
Alcoa ? as adjusted.
