Global financial crisis puts Wagerup 3 on hold

Alcoa has announced it has suspended work on the proposed expansion of the Wagerup Refinery (Wagerup 3) until market conditions improve. The decision has been taken due to market softness resulting from the global financial crisis.

Alcoa of Australia Managing Director Alan Cransberg, said the action taken was necessary given the current challenging economic environment.

“Alcoa of Australia is a strong and high performing business but, like many companies, we are facing unprecedented economic challenges that require us to reign in capital expenditure and reconsider the timing of our capital projects.

“Wagerup 3 continues to represent one of Alcoa’s best brown field opportunities globally to deliver value through an expansion. When market conditions improve we will revisit implementation of the project,” he said.

Mr Cransberg said that the future of Alcoa’s business in Australia remains bright but work also needed to be done to secure energy supply for the expansion and understand the detail of the Australian Government’s emissions trading scheme before the project could be revisited.

The Wagerup 3 decision is one of a range of initiatives taken by Alcoa Inc to address the global financial crisis. Alcoa Inc also announced today that it will make targeted curtailments across its aluminium smelting system that will be phased-in beginning this month totalling approximately 350,000 metric tonnes per year. This is on top of the previously announced curtailment of 265,000 tonnes at the Rockdale aluminium smelter in Texas.

Alcoa to Curtail Additional 350,000 mtpy of Aluminum Production Across Its Global Smelting System

Action Brings Company’s Curtailed Production to 615,000 mtpy, or 15% This Year

PITTSBURGH—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Alcoa (NYSE:AA) today announced it will curtail an additional 350,000 metric tons per year (mtpy) of aluminum production beginning immediately. Last month the Company curtailed production at its 265,000 mtpy smelter in Rockdale, Texas. Combined, the Company’s curtailment efforts in the second half of this year total 15 percent of the Company’s annualized output, or 615,000 mtpy. The additional curtailments are necessary because of lower end-market demand and global economic softness. The curtailments follow targeted cost-reduction initiatives and will be spread across the company’s global system. This approach will minimize the costs associated with wholesale plant shutdowns and re-starts and the impact on plant communities.

The reductions will be achieved through partial potline curtailments, targeted suspension of pot re-lining, optimization of pot operating parameters, and by modulating power use for sale during peaks in the power markets.

Partial potline curtailments will include smelters in Ferndale, Washington; and Baie Comeau, Quebec. The Baie Comeau curtailment will be implemented as part of the previously announced modernization program at the plant. In Ferndale, Alcoa continues to make progress on finalizing the arrangements within the MOU it signed last month with the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) to supply energy to the Intalco Works smelter there through 2028. The MOU provides a foundation for the plant to be competitive globally and for Alcoa to invest in improving the overall environmental and productivity performance of the plant.

“The industry is in surplus and has experienced an unprecedented fall in aluminum prices over a very short period of time,” said Bernt Reitan, Alcoa Executive Vice President and President – Global Primary Products. “While we continue to see a strong long-term outlook for aluminum consumption, we are taking a series of actions to address the current market conditions, including targeted cost-reductions across our system and reducing production.

“These curtailment steps are part of a larger global effort to reduce our costs, match production with demand, and help secure a long term future for our operations in light of the current market,” said Reitan. “We have reviewed every asset across our entire system with an eye on how best to maximize profitability as we look to align production with demand. After careful analysis we have developed a four-part model that spreads the curtailments across our global system and minimizes the costs associated with plant shutdowns and re-starts and, in turn, minimize the impact on plant communities.”

The reductions will be phased-in beginning immediately. Alcoa’s new annualized smelting production rate is approximately 3.5 million mtpy, with approximately 1.0 million mtpy idled. Costs for the curtailments are still being finalized. Adjustments to the Company’s alumina refining production will be made accordingly.

Entitlement offer and adjustment to Convertible Bonds conversion price

Alumina Limited, as guarantor of the US$350,000,000 Convertible Bonds due 2013 issued by Alumina Finance Limited, recently completed an entitlement offer (rights issue) of approximately 303.4 million ordinary shares at an issue price of A$3.00 per share.

As a result of the entitlement offer and subsequent allocation of all shares issued under it, the conversion price of the Convertible Bonds has been adjusted in accordance with their terms and conditions from A$8.35 to A$7.76 (after disregarding fractions of cents that are carried forward under the terms and conditions to any subsequent adjustments). The adjusted conversion price applies with effect on and from 1 September 2008, the first date on which Alumina Limited’s ordinary shares traded ex-entitlement offer on the Australian Securities Exchange. At the adjusted conversion price, the Convertible Bonds are convertible in aggregate into 47,642,434 Alumina Limited ordinary shares.
