Alcoa’s Q1 results were adversely impacted by the decline in aluminum prices over the course of the last twelve months, with the company’s productivity improvement initiatives partially offsetting the impact of lower aluminum prices on results. Lower aluminum prices, the impact of foreign exchange movements, divestments, and capacity curtailments (particularly in the upstream businesses), resulted in a decline in the company’s revenue.
