• Significant focus remains on managing energy price volatility through a complex portfolio of power-related derivatives and cash flow hedges.
• Alcoa is actively managing environmental loss contingencies and liabilities related to non-operating sites.
• Management is currently navigating disputes with the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office regarding Alcoa World Alumina Brasil.

• The company continues to operate two main segments: Alumina and Aluminum, with third-party sales and intersegment eliminations impacting the consolidated balance sheet.

Stable

The tone suggests a focus on risk mitigation and internal restructuring rather than growth, consistent with a period of stabilizing the balance sheet through asset management.

Alcoa remains focused on executing its 2025 restructuring plan and managing the high fair-value sensitivity of its long-term power contracts until 2036.
