Executive Summary
In Q2 2025, Alcoa Corporation reported a net income of $164 million, representing a remarkable 720% year-over-year increase despite a 10.42% decline in revenue to $3.018 billion. The significant growth in net income can be attributed to effective cost management and operational efficiencies.
