FRANKLIN, Tenn., October 21, 2026
- Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (NASDAQ: KALU) (the "Company" or "Kaiser"), a leading producer of semi-fabricated specialty aluminum products serving customers worldwide with highly-engineered solutions for aerospace and high strength, packaging, general engineering, and automotive extrusions end market applications, today announced third quarter 2026 results.
Management Commentary
"Our results reflected continued strength in customer demand, improved Conversion Revenue, and favorable pricing and product mix. While reported EBITDA increased modestly year-over-year, the comparison was significantly affected by the higher favorable metal price lag reflected in the prior year quarter, which, as expected, did not continue in the current quarter. Despite this headwind, as well as other operational challenges that impacted third quarter margins, the business delivered meaningful underlying improvement year over year," said Keith A. Harvey, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer." As we look toward 2027 and beyond, customer visibility continues to improve and conversations are increasingly focused on future growth, long-term supply and expanding capacity requirements. With the investments we have made across the portfolio and the strength of our market positions, we believe Kaiser is exceptionally well positioned to capitalize on the opportunities ahead."

1.
The total Hedged Cost of Alloyed Metal includes cost of aluminum at the Midwest Transaction Price and the cost of alloying elements used in the production process. This metric is net of metal price exposure on shipments that the Company hedged with realized (losses) gains upon settlement of ($7.4) million and $10.2 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, and $11.5 million and $15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.
2.
Diluted shares for EPS are calculated using the two-class method.
3.
Adjusted numbers exclude non-run-rate items. For all Adjusted numbers and EBITDA refer to Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures.
4.
Adjusted EBITDA = Consolidated operating income, excluding operating non-run-rate items, plus Depreciation and amortization. For the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA includes unfavorable metal price lag of approximately $1.0 million and favorable metal price lag of approximately $28.0 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA includes favorable metal price lag of approximately $63.0 million and approximately $64.0 million, respectively. Metal price lag represents management’s estimate of the financial impact resulting from the timing difference between aluminum prices included within Hedged Cost of Alloyed Metal and the weighted average market price for aluminum during the period, based on the Midwest Transaction Price, multiplied by our shipment volume during the periods. Metal price lag will generally increase our earnings in times of rising primary aluminum prices and decrease our earnings in times of declining primary aluminum prices.
5.
Adjusted EBITDA margin = Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of Conversion Revenue.

Please refer to GAAP financial statements, totals may not sum due to rounding.
Third Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
Net sales for the third quarter 2026 increased to $1.21 billion compared to $844 million in the prior year period, driven by higher average realized sales price and increased shipments. The increase in average selling price reflects a 57% increase in Hedged Cost of Alloyed Metal, which is generally passed through to customers as a function of contracted selling price. Shipments improved 11% year-over-year, reflecting the increased volume in the current quarter resulting from the capacity added in connection with the Phase VII investment at the Company's Trentwood facility and the impact of the planned partial outage associated with the Phase VII investment during the prior year period. During the quarter, demand
remained strong in Aero/HS and GE Products end markets while the Company continued to see the favorable impact of transition to higher value coated products in the Packaging end market.
Conversion Revenue for the third quarter 2026 was $439 million, reflecting a 25% increase compared to the prior year period, primarily due to favorable pricing and an improved product mix.

The total Hedged Cost of Alloyed Metal includes cost of aluminum at the Midwest Transaction Price and the cost of alloying elements used in the production process. This metric is net of metal price exposure on shipments that the Company hedged with realized (losses) gains upon settlement of ($7.4) million and $10.2 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, and $11.5 million and $15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.
Operating income for the third quarter 2026 was $55 million, an increase of 13% from the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $84 million, an increase of 3% from the prior year period. The contribution from higher Conversion Revenue helped offset an approximate $29 million unfavorable metal price lag change from the prior year. The third quarter 2026 also incurred approximately a 640-basis point Adjusted EBITDA margin impact from higher metal consumption costs associated with lower scrap utilization, and lower operating efficiencies primarily reflecting the planned partial outage at the Company’s Bellwood facility and continued roll coat start-up costs in the Packaging end market.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
Adjusted EBITDA of $379 million reported in the first nine months of 2026 and cash on hand funded $83 million of working capital, $72 million of capital investments, $37 million of interest payments, and $39 million of cash returned to stockholders through quarterly dividends. As of September 30, 2026, the Company's net debt leverage ratio improved to 2.0x from 3.4x at December 31, 2025. On October 2, 2026, Moody's upgraded the Company's credit rating to Ba3 with a stable outlook, recognizing its improved operating performance and debt leverage.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had total liquidity of $687 million, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $117 million and borrowing availability under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility of $570 million. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2026.
On October 13, 2026, the Company announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.77 per share, which will be paid on November 13, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 23, 2026.
CEO Transition
As previously announced, Fred Stephan will succeed Keith A. Harvey as President and Chief Executive Officer of Kaiser Aluminum and become a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, both effective November 1, 2026. Mr. Harvey will transition to Executive Chairman and continue to support Mr. Stephan as a special advisor through October 31, 2027, helping to ensure a seamless transition and continuity in the Company’s strategic direction.
2026 Outlook
For the balance of 2026, the Company continues to expect Conversion Revenue growth at the high end of its 10% to 15% outlook, reflecting continued end-market strength and favorable pricing and mix. While the Company is maintaining its Adjusted EBITDA growth outlook of 45% to 55% compared to 2025, results are now expected toward the lower end of the range due to planned operational outages, execution performance, customer year-end inventory alignment and metal-related headwinds.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets, or statements of cash flow of the Company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure in the accompanying tables.
The non-GAAP financial measures used within this earnings release are Conversion Revenue, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income, Net Debt Leverage Ratio which represents long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by the last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow which represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, and Adjusted earnings per diluted share which exclude non-run-rate items and ratios related thereto. As more fully described in these reports, “non-run-rate” items are items that, while they may occur from period to period, are particularly material to results, impact costs primarily as a result of external market factors and may not occur in future periods if the same level of underlying performance were to occur. These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends and believes this information to also be useful for investors. Reconciliations of certain forward looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not provided because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted or provided without unreasonable effort.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 involving known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied. These factors include: (a) the effectiveness of management's strategies and decisions, including strategic investments, capital spending strategies, cost reduction initiatives, sourcing strategies, process and countermeasures implemented to address operational and supply chain challenges, and the execution of those strategies; (b) the execution and timing of strategic investments; (c) general economic and business conditions, including the impact of geopolitical factors and governmental and other actions taken in response, tariffs, cyclicality, reshoring, labor challenges, supply interruptions, scrap availability and pricing, customer operation disruptions, customer inventory imbalances and supply chain issues and other conditions that impact demand drivers in the aerospace/high strength, packaging, general engineering, and automotive extrusions end markets we serve; (d) the Company’s ability to participate in mature and anticipated new automotive programs expected to launch in the future and successfully launch new automotive programs; (e) changes or shifts in defense spending due to competing national priorities; (f) pricing, market conditions and the Company’s ability to effectively execute its commercial and labor strategies, pass through cost increases, including the institution of surcharges, and flex costs in response to inflation, volatile commodity costs and changing economic conditions; (g) developments in technology; (h) the impact of the Company's future earnings, cash flows, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors on its financial strength and flexibility; (i) new or modified statutory or regulatory requirements; (j) the successful integration of the acquired operations and technologies; (k) stakeholder, including regulator and customer, views regarding the Company's sustainability goals and initiatives and the impact of factors outside of the Company's control on such goals and initiatives; and (l) other risk factors summarized in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission including the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

1.
NRR is an abbreviation for non-run-rate; NRR items are pre-tax. Other operating NRR items primarily represent the impact of adjustments to legacy environmental accruals and losses on the disposition of operating property, plant and equipment.
2.
Adjusted EBITDA = Consolidated operating income, excluding operating NRR items, plus Depreciation and amortization. For the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA includes unfavorable metal price lag of approximately $1.0 million and favorable metal price lag of approximately $28.0 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA includes favorable metal price lag of approximately $63.0 million and approximately $64.0 million, respectively. Metal price lag represents management’s estimate of the financial impact resulting from the timing difference between aluminum prices included within Hedged Cost of Alloyed Metal and the weighted average market price for aluminum during the period, based on the Midwest Transaction Price, multiplied by our shipment volume during the periods. Metal price lag will generally increase our earnings in times of rising primary aluminum prices and decrease our earnings in times of declining primary aluminum prices.
3.
Non-operating NRR items typically represent the impact of non-cash net periodic benefit cost related to the Salaried VEBA, (gains) losses recorded from the sale of non-operating assets, and gains recorded from business interruption insurance recoveries.
4.
Diluted shares for EPS are calculated using the two-class method.
