Alcoa (AA, Financial) has reaffirmed its production and shipment forecasts for 2025, indicating stability in its operations for both the alumina and aluminum segments. The company projects that its total alumina production and shipments will remain consistent with earlier estimates, targeting between 9.5 to 9.7 million metric tons for production and 13.1 to 13.3 million metric tons for shipments.
The discrepancy between production and shipment volumes is attributed to trading activities and the procurement of externally sourced alumina, a strategy employed to meet customer needs following the curtailment of operations at the Kwinana refinery.
Similarly, Alcoa's 2025 forecast for aluminum remains unchanged. Production is expected to fall within the range of 2.3 to 2.5 million metric tons, with shipments anticipated between 2.6 and 2.8 million metric tons. These projections reflect Alcoa's continued efforts to maintain stable output levels amidst operational adjustments.
