Alcoa 4Q Results Offer Mixed Signal -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
01/24

1323 ET - Alcoa reported a 4Q headline beat, but analysts at UBS say the underlying performance was a bit more complicated. While the aluminum producer's adjusted EBITDA of $546 million topped consensus estimates, the analysts note the figure was propped up by roughly $57 million in one-off CO2 credits that weren't in previous guidance. Strip those away, and the results actually missed the mark, they add. Though the company is targeting the sale of a legacy U.S. asset in the first half of 2026, the analysts say that a projected build in working capital and a potential rise in net debt during the first quarter suggest that share buybacks "are not imminent." Alcoa is down 1.5%. (amira.mckee@wsj.com)
