Alcoa Q3 profit more than doubles despite lower aluminium prices and shipments

Alcoa reported a third-quarter net profit of $483 million, more than doubling from $232 million a year earlier, driven by higher production and alumina prices. Revenue rose 24% year-on-year to $3.70 billion but fell 7% from the previous quarter due to lower aluminium shipments and prices. The company improved operational output, including restarting its Alumar smelter and setting production records, while reaffirming its 2026 production forecasts. Alcoa expects some earnings pressure in Q4 from maintenance and raw material costs but remains on track to complete its South32 acquisition in early 2027.

Alcoa Corporation's stock price surged by 6.88% to USD 43.20 on Pluang as of Oct 16, 2026, 22:41 WIB, reflecting strong investor interest following the company's report of more than doubled quarterly profit. The stock's market capitalization stands at $10.67 billion, with all current Pluang order activity favoring buying. This price movement complements the company's operational improvements and production growth highlighted in the recent earnings update.
