US-based Century Aluminum Company announced an earnings per share (EPS) of US$0.36 for the first quarter of this year, which was US$0.25 lower than the analysts' forecast of US$0.61.
During the period, the company's net sales reached US$633.9 million, exceeding the expected consensus of $577.2 million. This figure had a quarter-on-quarter increase of US$3.0 million, mainly driven by higher LME aluminum prices, increased regional premiums, and favorable volume and mix, partially offset by lower third-party alumina sales. The net income attributable to its stockholders was US$29.7, falling from US$45.2 in the previous quarter.
In the first quarter, Century Aluminum shipped 168,672 tons of aluminum, up by 1% compared to 166,677 tons in the preceding quarter.
