Alcoa Inc. Analyst Notes
On March 28, 2014, Alcoa Inc. (Alcoa) announced that the Company will reduce its smelting capacity in Brazil by 147,000 metric tons by the end of May 2014. The decision for capacity reduction was taken in the light of smelters being uncompetitive due to challenging global market conditions in primary aluminum and increase cost. As stated, the new reduction will include the remaining 62,000 metric tons of capacity from the Poços smelter, resulting in a full curtailment of its three potlines. Another 85,000 metric tons will be curtailed at São Luís. The reduction in capacity is part of the Company's overall goal of lowering its position on the world aluminum production cost curve to the 38th percentile and the alumina cost curve to the 21st percentile, by 2016. Post the completion of all announced curtailments and closures, Alcoa will have nearly 800,000 metric tons, or 21% of smelting capacity, offline.
