______________________________________________________________________________
1 Prior to November 1, 2016, Alcoa Corporation’s financial statements were prepared on a carve-out basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Alcoa Corporation’s former parent company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the financial results of Alcoa Corporation for full year 2015 and the first ten months of 2016 (including the third quarter 2016 and the first month of the fourth quarter 2016) were also prepared on a carve-out basis. The carve-out financial statements of Alcoa Corporation are not necessarily indicative of Alcoa Corporation’s combined results of operations, financial position, and cash flows had it been a standalone company during the referenced periods. See the Combined Financial Statements included in Exhibit 99.1 to Alcoa Corporation’s Form 10 registration statement and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2016 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on October 11, 2016 and December 1, 2016, respectively, for additional information.
______________________________________________________________________________
Alcoa Corporation (NYSE:AA), a global leader in bauxite, alumina, and aluminum products, today reported fourth quarter 2016 results that reflect profit growth at the combined segment level and an improved cash position, driven by higher alumina and aluminum pricing.
Since launching as an independent company on November 1, 2016, Alcoa has increased its cash position by $198 million and closed the fourth quarter 2016 with a cash balance of $853 million.
“Alcoa’s first reporting period as a new, standalone, publicly-traded company points to our ability to deliver shareholder value,” said Roy Harvey, Chief Executive Officer of Alcoa. “Rising alumina and aluminum prices improved the bottom line, our alumina segment had exceptional profit growth in a stronger market environment and doubled margins, while our bauxite business also increased profits and reported robust margins. In addition, we continued to streamline our portfolio and generated cash to strengthen the balance sheet.”
Mr. Harvey added: “We’ve entered 2017 focused on our strategic priorities. We will reduce complexity and costs across Alcoa, remain disciplined with cash, and focus on smart investments with strong returns.”
In fourth quarter 2016, Alcoa reported a net loss of $125 million, or $(0.68) per share. Results include $151 million of special items primarily related to the permanent closure of Suralco’s refinery and mines in Suriname and the impairment of Alcoa of Australia Limited’s (AofA) interests in a Western Australia (WA) gas field. Fourth quarter 2016 results compare to a net loss of $10 million, or $(0.06) per share, in third quarter 2016.
Excluding the impact of special items, fourth quarter 2016 adjusted net income was $26 million, or $0.14 per share. In third quarter 2016, Alcoa reported an adjusted net loss of $95 million, or $(0.52) per share, excluding special items.
Alcoa reported fourth quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA excluding special items of $335 million, up 18 percent from third quarter 2016. Higher alumina and metal prices drove the sequential change in adjusted EBITDA, more than offsetting increased costs primarily tied to energy.
In fourth quarter 2016, Alcoa reported revenue of $2.5 billion, up 9 percent sequentially, reflecting higher volumes in the Company’s rolled products business, as well as rising alumina and aluminum pricing.
In the fourth quarter, the Company achieved a seasonal low of 13 days working capital.
2016 Full-Year Results
In 2016, Alcoa reported a net loss of $400 million, or $(2.19) per share. Excluding special items, the Company reported an adjusted net loss of $227 million, or $(1.24) per share. The full year net loss was driven largely by costs associated with portfolio restructuring decisions, including the closure of the Warrick smelter and the Suralco refinery and mines, and the impairment of the WA gas field.
Adjusted EBITDA excluding special items for 2016 was $1.1 billion, compared to $1.8 billion in 2015, due to lower alumina and aluminum pricing during the first three quarters and incremental costs to operate the Warrick, IN rolling mill as a cold metal plant, partially offset by net productivity improvements. Revenue in 2016 was $9.3 billion, down 17 percent from 2015, reflecting lower pricing and volumes in alumina and aluminum, slightly offset by higher third-party bauxite shipments.
In 2016, Alcoa invested in return-seeking capital projects of $82 million, and controlled sustaining capital expenditures to $322 million. Return on capital in 2016 was 5.3 percent.
4Q 2016 Business Update
In the fourth quarter, Alcoa continued to successfully build its third-party bauxite business and to further streamline its portfolio.
- AofA secured its first major bauxite export contract out of Western Australia (WA), and was granted approval to export up to 2.5 million metric tons per annum of bauxite for five years to third-party customers.
- Alcoa announced the permanent closure of the Suralco alumina refinery and bauxite mines in Suriname, which have been fully curtailed since November 2015. Alcoa also impaired AofA’s interests in a WA gas field. Alcoa determined that the completed exploration activities do not support the current carrying value. AofA and Suralco are part of the Alcoa World Alumina and Chemicals group of companies owned 60 percent by Alcoa and 40 percent by Alumina Ltd..
Early this month, Alcoa announced that it will restart capacity at the Portland Aluminium smelter in Australia that had been lost due to a December power outage. Portland Aluminium is an unincorporated joint venture between AofA (55 percent), CITIC Nominees Pty Ltd (22.5 percent), and Marubeni Aluminium Australia Pty Ltd (22.5 percent).
Market Update
For 2017, the Company projects relatively balanced global bauxite and alumina markets and a modest global aluminum surplus of 400 thousand to 800 thousand metric tons. Alcoa is projecting 2017 global aluminum demand growth of 4 percent over 2016.

| (2) | In September 2016, Alcoa Nederland Holding B.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alcoa Corporation, issued $1,250 in new senior notes in preparation for the separation of the Company from its former parent company (completed on November 1, 2016). The net proceeds of $1,228 from the debt issuance, along with $81 of cash on hand from the former parent company (see below), were required to be placed into escrow contingent on the completion of the separation transaction. As a result, the issuance of the debt and the increase in restricted cash both in the amount of $1,228 were not reflected in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2016 as these represent noncash financing and investing activities, respectively. The $81 represented the necessary cash to fund the redemption of the notes, pay all regularly scheduled interest on the notes through a specified date defined in the notes, and a premium on the principal of the notes if the separation had not been completed by a certain time as defined in the notes. The subsequent release of the $1,228 from escrow was reflected in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2016 as a cash inflow in the Net change in restricted cash line item. The majority of this amount was paid to Alcoa Corporation’s former parent company in conjunction with the completion of the separation transaction. | |
| (3) | Proceeds from the sale of assets and businesses for the year ended December 31, 2016 includes a cash outflow for cash paid as a result of post-closing adjustments associated with the December 2014 divestiture of an ownership stake in a smelter in the United States. | |

| (1) | Prior to November 1, 2016, Alcoa Corporation’s financial statements were prepared on a carve-out basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Alcoa Corporation’s former parent company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the financial results of Alcoa Corporation for all periods prior to fourth quarter 2016 were prepared on such basis. Additionally, the financial results of Alcoa Corporation for the first month of fourth quarter 2016 and the first ten months of full year 2016 were also prepared on a carve-out basis. The carve-out financial statements of Alcoa Corporation are not necessarily indicative of Alcoa Corporation’s combined results of operations, financial position, and cash flows had it been a standalone company during the referenced periods. See the Combined Financial Statements included in Exhibit 99.1 to Alcoa Corporation’s Form 10 Registration Statement and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2016 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on October 11, 2016 and December 1, 2016, respectively, for additional information. | |

| Net (loss) income attributable to Alcoa Corporation – 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 Corporation excluding the impacts of restructuring and other charges, discrete tax items, and other special items (collectively, “special items”). There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes that it is appropriate to consider both Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation determined under GAAP as well as Net (loss) income attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted. | ||
| (1) | Prior to November 1, 2016, Alcoa Corporation’s financial statements were prepared on a carve-out basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Alcoa Corporation’s former parent company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the results of operations of Alcoa Corporation for the quarters ended December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2016, for the month of October 2016 included in the quarter ended December 31, 2016, for the year ended December 31, 2015, and for the first ten months included in the year ended December 31, 2016 were prepared on such basis. The carve-out financial statements of Alcoa Corporation are not necessarily indicative of Alcoa Corporation’s combined results of operations had it been a standalone company during the referenced periods. See the Combined Financial Statements included in Exhibit 99.1 to Alcoa Corporation’s Form 10 Registration Statement and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2016 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on October 11, 2016 and December 1, 2016, respectively, for additional information. | |
| (2) | Discrete tax items include the following: | |
| • | for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, a charge for a valuation allowance related to certain Iceland deferred tax assets ($56) and a net charge for a number of small items ($6); | |
| • | for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a net charge for a number of small items; | |
| • | for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, a benefit for the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in Brazil due to a tax rate change; | |
| • | for the year ended December 31, 2015, a charge for valuation allowances related to certain Suriname and Iceland deferred tax assets ($141) and a net charge for a number of small items ($8); and | |
| • | for the year ended December 31, 2016, a benefit for the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in Brazil due to a tax rate change ($11) and a net charge for a number of other items ($11). | |
| (3) | Other special items include the following: | |
| • | for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, a write-down of inventory related to the curtailment or permanent closure of various facilities in Suriname and the United States ($59), a net unfavorable change in certain mark-to-market energy derivative contracts ($10), and costs associated with the then-planned separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company ($6); | |
| • | for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a gain on the sale of wharf property near the Intalco, Washington smelter ($118), costs associated with the then-planned separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company ($23), and a net favorable change in certain mark-to-market energy derivative contracts ($2); | |
| • | for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, costs associated with the separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company ($19), interest expense incurred in October 2016 related to debt that was issued in September 2016 in preparation for the separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company (completed on November 1, 2016) ($8), a net unfavorable change in certain mark-to-market energy derivative contracts ($2), and an inventory adjustment at a curtailed refinery in the United States ($1); | |
| • | for the year ended December 31, 2015, a write-down of inventory related to the curtailment or permanent closure of various facilities in Suriname, the United States, Brazil, and Australia ($90), a net unfavorable change in certain mark-to-market energy derivative contracts ($30), a gain on the sale of land in the United States ($29), and costs associated with the then-planned separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company ($12); and | |
| • | for the year ended December 31, 2016, a gain on the sale of wharf property near the Intalco, Washington smelter ($118), costs associated with the separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company ($73), a gain on the sale of an equity investment in a natural gas pipeline in Australia ($27), a benefit for an arbitration recovery related to a 2010 fire at the Iceland smelter ($14), interest expense incurred in October 2016 related to debt that was issued in September 2016 in preparation for the separation of Alcoa Corporation from its former parent company (completed on November 1, 2016) ($8), a write-down of inventory related to the permanent closure of a smelter in the United States and adjustments two previously curtailed facilities ($7), and a net unfavorable change in certain mark-to-market energy derivative contracts ($6). | |
| (4) | The tax impact on special items is based on the applicable statutory rates in the jurisdictions where the special items occurred. The noncontrolling interest impact on special items represents Alcoa’s partners’ share of certain special items. | |
| (5) | In any given period, the average number of shares applicable to diluted EPS for Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation common shareholders may exclude certain share equivalents as their effect is anti-dilutive. However, certain of these share equivalents may become dilutive in the EPS calculation applicable to Net (loss) income attributable to Alcoa Corporation common shareholders – as adjusted due to a larger and/or positive numerator. | |
| Specifically, for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, share equivalents associated with outstanding employee stock options and awards were dilutive based on Net income attributable to Alcoa Corporation common shareholders – as adjusted, resulting in a diluted average number of shares of 184,448,353 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, no additional share equivalents were dilutive based on Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation common shareholders – as adjusted, resulting in a diluted average number of shares of 182,538,152. | ||
| Prior to November 1, 2016, Alcoa Corporation did not have any issued and outstanding common stock. As such, the respective basic and diluted EPS related to both Net loss attributable to Alcoa Corporation and Net (loss) income attributable to Alcoa Corporation – as adjusted for the quarters ended December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015 were calculated based on the 182,471,195 shares of Alcoa Corporation common stock distributed on November 1, 2016 in conjunction with the completion of Alcoa Corporation’s separation from its former parent company and are considered pro forma in nature. | ||

| Alcoa Corporation’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 Corporation’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. | ||
