Century reported FY 2025 total net sales of USD 2.5 billion, up USD 307.6 million, driven mainly by favorable realized LME and regional price premiums of USD 415.9 million, partly offset by decreased third-party alumina sales of USD 54.6 million and unfavorable volume and sales mix of USD 107.4 million. FY 2025 gross profit was USD 256.4 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses were USD 79.9 million. Century posted FY 2025 net income of USD 15.8 million, with net income attributable to shareholders of USD 41.8 million and an income tax benefit of USD 13.1 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was USD 185.0 million and capital expenditures were USD 100.2 million; Century ended FY 2025 with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of USD 134.2 million and liquidity of USD 418.0 million, including USD 283.8 million of unused availability under its credit facilities. Operationally, Century cited an October 2025 equipment event at its Grundartangi smelter that temporarily idled one of two potlines after two transformer failures, reducing production at the smelter by about two-thirds; the company said it currently estimates resumption of production of the idled potline will begin by the end of April 2026 and expects losses, net of deductibles, to be covered by insurance. Century also highlighted that Section 232 tariffs on imported primary aluminum were raised to 25% effective March 12, 2025 and to 50% effective June 4, 2025, and said the resulting increase in the Midwest Premium had a material positive impact on its financial position and results in 2025.
