Insights

Century Aluminum delivered a solid Q3 2024 with notable improvements in profitability. Net income jumped to $47.3 million from a $2.5 million loss in Q2, while adjusted EBITDA surged to $103.7 million, a $69.5 million increase quarter-over-quarter.

Key performance drivers include higher aluminum prices (LME price up $163/MT) and the recognition of $34.9 million in additional Section 45X tax credits. The company maintains strong liquidity of $278.9 million, though cash position is relatively modest at $32.6 million.

The Q4 outlook suggests some moderation with projected adjusted EBITDA of $70-80 million, reflecting lower aluminum prices offset by reduced power costs. The Jamalco acquisition provides strategic advantages in bauxite and alumina supply chain integration, particularly valuable given global supply challenges.

Notes:    
(1) Non-GAAP measure; see reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Net sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 decreased by $21.7 million sequentially primarily due to lower third-party alumina sales offset by higher LME aluminum price, regional and value-added product premiums.

Century reported net income attributable to Century stockholders of $47.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, a $49.8 million increase sequentially. The increase in net earnings during the third quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by the recognition of full year 2023 and year to date 2024 Inflation Reduction Act Advanced Manufacturing credits of $34.9 million, higher LME aluminum price realization of $31.0 million, partially offset by higher power prices of $2.9 million. Third quarter results were also impacted by $12.0 million of net exceptional items, in particular, $3.2 million of stock based compensation costs and $6.9 million of costs incurred following the impact of Hurricane Beryl in Jamaica. Therefore, Century reported an adjusted net income of $60.0 million for the third quarter of 2024, a $59.3 million improvement sequentially.

Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Century stockholders for the third quarter of 2024 was $103.7 million. This was an increase of $69.5 million from the prior quarter, primarily driven by favorable realized LME and regional price premiums of $31.7 million, and $34.9 million related to the recognition of 2023 and 2024 additional section 45X tax credits.

Century's liquidity position at September 30, 2024 was $278.9 million, comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $32.6 million and $246.3 million in combined borrowing availability.

“Strong global demand, continued supply-side challenges and supportive macroeconomic policy in China and the West led to rising aluminum and alumina prices in the third quarter,” noted Century President and CEO Jesse Gary. “With bauxite and alumina supply chains facing a number of challenges around the world, we are thrilled to have our own strategic supply of bauxite and alumina from our Jamalco operations following the acquisition last year. “

“We were very pleased with the final Section 45X rules issued earlier this month that increase the amount of production tax credit we will receive and further bolsters the competitiveness of our U.S. operations. When combined with benefits of our Jamalco acquisition and growing demand for aluminum around the world, we believe Century is well positioned to offer our customers a unique value proposition and superior returns for our shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Outlook

The company expects fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA to range between $70 to $80 million driven by lower LME and regional premium prices offset by lower power costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate Century's financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of Century’s ongoing operating performance and ability to generate cash. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance an overall understanding of Century’s performance and our investors’ ability to review Century’s business from the same perspective as management. The tables below, under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures," provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, Century's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA included in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.  Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA because the corresponding forward-looking GAAP financial measures is not currently available and management cannot reliably predict all the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such a reconciliation, including adjustments that could be made for restructuring, the variability of our tax rate, the impact of foreign currency fluctuation, and other charges reflected in our historical results. The probable significance of each of these items is high and, based on historical experience, could be material.
