At this point, let me turn it over to Chuck.

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Thanks, Tony. Good evening, everyone.

I’d like to take a few extra minutes with you today which we think will be both needed and worthwhile to adequately cover this year and our view of next year as well. Let’s start with the fourth quarter performance.

Even though there were a host of unusual items in the quarter, once you strip them away, we had another very solid quarter of earnings. In fact, the third highest in the Company’s history ranking only behind the first and second quarter of this year. In addition, it was the most profitable fourth quarter in the Company’s history.

Excluding our previously announced restructuring and impairments, income from continuing operations was $644 million, or $0.74 per share, up 20% from the third quarter. Quarterly revenue of $7.8 billion was up 3% sequentially and 20% higher than the year ago quarter.

Cash from operations was a record at $1.3 billion, up 78% sequentially. Not only did our income improve, but we also generated over $400 million from lower working capital levels.

Our debt to capital now stands at the low end of our target range at 30.6% as we continue to execute on our growth plans. Our trailing four quarter ROC was 13.2%, or 16.2, were we to exclude our growth projects.

Obviously, the restructuring and impairment charges had a significant impact on the quarter so let’s take a look at them on an after-tax basis.

This chart provides you with an EPS reconciliation of that impact. As previously announced in November, we recorded charges of $554 million, $386 million after-tax associated with restructuring programs.

The charges are comprised of asset impairments, severance and other shutdown costs associated with plant closings and consolidations across the Company’s global business units. The future annual savings resulting from these programs is estimated to be $125 million pretax.

In addition, the charges include the previously announced soft alloy extrusion joint venture. We signed letter of intent with Orkla SAPA Group [“Sapa”] to create a joint venture that will combine our soft alloy extrusion business with Sapa’s Profiles extruded aluminum business with the intention of eventually offering an IPO of the combined entity.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

Once these charges are excluded, our income from continuing operations would be $0.74 per share.

With that as a backdrop let’s move to the sequential quarterly income statement. Okay. Before we go any further, let’s take a minute and step through the unusual taxes in the quarter.

There are three primary factors generated in the current quarterly tax position. First, the rate was lower due to the tax benefit we took on our restructuring and impairment charges. If you were to exclude the impact of this benefit, the rate for the quarter would be at 18%.

Second, the rate was affected by several non-recurring tax items. Essentially, we were able to reverse reserves after the finalization of certain tax reviews and audits and reverse evaluation allowance on certain foreign net operating losses.

These benefits were partially offset by the unfavorable impact of a statutory rate change. The net benefit of these items provided an additional $0.08 per share of earnings.

Lastly, the operating run rate for the year was lowered to 27.3% as a result of income being earned in lower tax cost jurisdictions. This is comparable to the 2005 rate of 27%. Based on our current view of 2007, we would anticipate a rate of around 29%.

The next item worth noting is our COGS as a percent of sales, which decreased from 78.8 to 78.2 and was lower than the fourth quarter 2005 level of 81.7. Higher pricing, a favorable mix and the non-recurrence of our third quarter mill outages were the primary contributors to the sequential decrease.

Before leaving this page, we should note that the discontinued operations reflects the gain on the sale of our Home Exteriors business, which was consummated in the quarter for cash of slightly over $300 million.

As shown, our income from continuing operations decreased to 540 to $258 million including the restructuring charges. The next slide will bridge the differences.

Let me summarize the major deviations excluding the restructuring. Higher LME pricing, a favorable product mix and lower taxes drove the results higher sequentially. These were partially offset by lower automotive volumes, LIFO charges, a weaker U.S. dollar, and the strike at our Cleveland facility.

As you will see later from Alain, on a year-over-year basis we benefited from strong pricing and improved conditions in most of our markets and we’ve been much more successful at capturing price increases in a somewhat lower inflationary environment.

Now let’s provide you with a short summary of the changes to each segment. In our Alumina segment, ATOI fell $12 million from the previous quarter driven by a strong Australian dollar and lower production. Prices were essentially flat.

Production was down 3% sequentially as a result of a power outage at our Pinjarra refinery and a decreased operating level at our Pt. Comfort refinery. In late November, we took down one of the six digesters at Pt. Comfort to balance our supply demand for 2007. On a year-over-year basis alumina production and ATOI are up 2 and 42% respectively.

In the first quarter we anticipate steady volumes with the continued impact of the Pinjarra power outage and the Pt. Comfort adjustment muting improved performance at other refineries. We anticipate higher alumina pricing based on the current market and the approximate 60-day lag.

Now let’s go to the Primary segment. Sequentially, primary metals third-party revenue and ATOI increases of 15 and 39% were driven by higher LME prices, an increase in volumes and a favorable product mix.

The LME cash price on a one-month lag increased 5% whereas our third-party realized price increased 6%. The improvement to ATOI was partially reduced by higher carbon cost, Iceland start up costs, and unfavorable currency impact.

The Company purchased 100,000 tons of primary metal in the quarter for internal use as part of its strategy to sell value-added products. Looking forward to the first quarter, we are currently averaging higher metal prices, yet we also anticipate the higher costs as noted on the slide.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

Let me expand on the Rockdale bullet. As many of you know, we agreed to shut down units one, two and three. And until unit five is commissioned, we will purchase bridge power. The cost of this power is at a negotiated rate from TXU.

Now we can go to Flat-Rolled Products segment. In Flat-Rolled Products we benefited from a favorable aerospace mix, lower taxes, and the restoration of the third quarter mill outages.

Costs associated with the beginning of the orderly shutdown of the Swansea can sheet facility also impacted the quarter. Looking forward, the Swansea shutdown costs will continue through the first quarter.

We also expect continued strong demand in aerospace with productivity gains offsetting cost inflation within most of the underlying businesses.

On the industrial side the picture is muted. Europe is expected to be stronger and North America is slightly weaker.

Engineered Solutions is next. Engineered Solutions continued its trend with record fourth quarter results despite increasing pressure from lower automotive OEM volumes.

ATOI is flat sequentially but up 55% over the year ago quarter due to continued strong productivity improvements and pricing actions. Segment ATOI was negatively impacted by that Cleveland strike, lower volumes and an unfavorable mix.

These were offset by a tax benefit and the continued improvements generated from our prior restructuring activities. 2006 was a record year for this segment with ATOI increasing 63% over 2005.

Looking forward to the first quarter, we will experience the impact of the 40 to 50% decline in the North American heavy truck market due to engine emission regulations. We expect share gains in wheels, AFL heavy truck and fasteners to mitigate a portion of this impact.

In addition, this segment will be affected by the continued North American auto production cut on specific platforms. Strong demand will continue in aerospace despite the A380 delays.

Moving to the Extruded and End Product segment. ATOI increased $11 million sequentially, or 69% from the prior quarter in Extruded and End Products.

This segment benefited from a tax adjustment and favorable mix in the hard alloy extrusion business. For the total year 2006, ATOI for this segment was 54% higher than 2005.

Looking forward, we see some seasonal decline in the building and construction markets. In addition, we expect the formation of the joint venture to be in place by the end of the first quarter.

Moving next to the Packaging & Consumer segment. The Packaging & Consumer segment ATOI increased 8% over the sequential quarter and 30% over the prior year quarter.

The consumer business benefited from the normal seasonal uptick resulting in a 23% sequential increase in revenue, yet this benefit was partially offset by a 14% seasonal revenue decline in the closures business. Looking forward to the first quarter we expect a normal seasonal decrease in the consumer business offset somewhat by productivity improvements.

Now let’s talk about cash flow. Cash flow was truly one of our brightest accomplishments in the quarter. Cash from operations was $1.3 billion, a 78% improvement over the third quarter and a 28% improvement over the 2005 fourth quarter level of $1 billion.

In addition to our previously mentioned income improvement, we were able to generate over $400 million by operating with lower working capital levels. We measure our performance in this area on a days basis and we reduced our days by 8%, or 4.1 days sequentially.

Capital expenditures for the quarter were $1.1 billion, with the largest expenditures being made in Iceland, the anode plant in Mosjoen, the Jamaica early works expansion, the development of our Brazilian bauxite mine in Juruti, and the refinery expansion of Sao Luis.

This strong quarterly cash generation, coupled with proceeds from the sale of our Home Exteriors business enabled us to reduce debt by $676 million in the quarter. Debt to capital now stands at 30.6%, lower than the 32.8 in the sequential quarter, and at the low end of our target range.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

This includes an equity adjustment that related to the adoption of the new accounting standard on pension and post retirement benefits. This adjustment reduced equity by $787 million and increased our debt to cap by one percentage point.

The significant other investing activity was the repurchase of 9.1 million shares at a cost of $290 million in the year.

Now let me take you to my final slide. The total segment ATOI and revenue history gives you a good perspective of how strong the year has been for us as compared to other periods.

It demonstrates our effectiveness at capturing the price increases and not relinquishing them to higher structural costs. Were you to revisit 2005 you would see the cost increases eliminated all but approximately 20% of the benefit of higher prices.

We continue to experience cost pressures in 2006, yet we were successful in eliminating 90% of their impact through higher volumes, productivity and mix. This resulted in us capturing more than 95% of the higher LME price.

The bottom portion of the slide provide you with the Bloomberg trailing 12 months ROC metric and our outstanding improvement trend. Not only are we adding value by producing returns higher than our cost of capital, we are doing it on a consistently higher basis with each passing quarter. And remember, these impressive returns include both the impact of restructuring as well as the impact of the construction in progress that is not yet contributing to the bottom line.

Thank you for your time and now I’d turn it over to Alain for the rest of the presentation.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Thank you, Chuck, and good evening everyone.

Well, we exist to provide a desired product that’s service or a solution to our customers. To do it well and continuously we have to do it with the interest and support of all stakeholders in our company.

This includes customers, shareholders, governments, communities, Alcoans and contractors all over the world. We have to do it day in and day out and we have to do it today and for tomorrow and it has to be done consistently and in a sustainable way.

As I reflect on 2006, I can point to many significant accomplishments that support this statement. In areas of environment, health and safety, in innovation and technology, and portfolio management. On long-term growth and financial performance, as Chuck said, the most profitable year in the Company history.

Let us take a closer look at each of these areas. We at Alcoa have demonstrated over the years our commitment to sustainability. We have gained credibility from our actions and, as a result, we are the development partner of choice around the world. This is a distinct competitive advantage.

When we look for new sites, new business opportunities, or forming new partnerships, we can take government authorities, community leaders, partners, to see locations and talk to their counterparts in many places around the world and review our track record.

We continue to build on that reputation in 2006. We were once again named as part of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index by being named one of the most sustainable companies in the world at the World Economic Forum in Davos, and by being ranked second in the Covalence Ethical ranking and ranked second overall in the CERES ranking on climate changes and governance.

These are excellent examples of how the outside world views Alcoa and the way we live our values every day.

Another example of consistency over time are our 2006 safety results. We celebrate 20 consecutive years of improved safety performance.

In 2006 our lost workday rate was .072. This is a 96% improvement since 1987. 82% of our locations worldwide did not have a lost workday case.

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

In 2006 our total recordable rate was 1.13. This is an 88% improvement since 1987. 45% of our locations did not have a total recordable injury. We are committed to continuing to improve what is considered to be the benchmark performance for a global industrial company.

Let’s now talk about innovation and technology. This is part of Alcoa’s DNA. It comes from our foundation.

Our Company was born from the innovation and discoveries of Charles Martin Hall about 118 years ago and we continue in that spirit of discovery today. We have the largest aluminum research facility in the world and is one of the only two operating in the world today.

We have an impressive staff of scientists and researchers dedicated to discovering and developing the next product solution, the next process improvement, and they are connected globally to other research centers in Russia, China, India and Europe and U.S. universities.

Let me quickly mention a few of the innovations that are making it to the market in 2006, 2007. We have developed and validated bauxite residue neutralization at Kwinana.

The process provides significant greenhouse benefits by permanently locking CO2 with the residue. This process will be taken to all other plants in the near future.

SMAC. Simultaneous Multi-Alloy Casting. This is an IP protected technology.

It eliminates clouding and the subsequent recovery losses in the flat-rolled product businesses leading to significant cost reduction. It also expands the product range to multi alloys on both sides of the sheet and we can do three to five alloys in the same cast.

Customer validation is in progress. The output is used for brazing sheet, using automotive heat exchanger application and we will be producing it briefly in the U.S.A., Hungary, and China.

Reynobond with Kevlar, also protected, is a lightweight aluminum polymer fiber composite outer panel for commercial and public building facade and possibly for broader application. It has passed with great success to simulate a hurricane impact test and we anticipate reaching the market in the near future.

Dura-Bright, also proprietary, is a finishing surface applied and introduced 2002 to our heavy truck wheels. We have increased our capacity for truck wheels and in 2006 moved the application into fuel tanks. We have several more application possibilities in the pipeline.

Our proprietary 7085 alloy and aluminum lithium have found wide field application in the aerospace market, and in addition, we continue to work on innovation and [inaudible] design for military platform and they are currently deemed prototyped and tested.

We are developing surface enhanced aluminum products for the consumer electronic market. We continue to work on inert anode, carbothermic for the primary business. We are increasing yield in refineries and reducing overall energy requirements.

In several products we are working on a micro mill. In [air foil] we are continue to drive for higher temperature and thermal efficiency.

In fasteners we are developing proprietary fasteners for composite applications and developed a combination of [aero] structures and fasteners with sensors. In packaging, we are developing new products, new packages, biodegradable material.

And finally, overall we are improving energy efficiencies and reducing our environmental footprint. So obviously, I’m very excited about what we have done and even more with what lies ahead.

[In] our portfolio managers, management, my executive team and I have continued to look at businesses with industry fit, positive trends, long-term contribution, above cost of capital and values to overall synergies.

In 2006 we sold our Alcoa Home Exterior business for $305 million in cash. It no longer fitted with our core global building and construction business portfolio.

We also announced we signed a letter of intent with Orkla, the Sapa Group, to create a joint venture that will combine our soft alloy extrusion business with Sapa Profile extruded aluminum business. We hope to finalize the joint venture by year-end, by the end of the first quarter, I’m sorry.

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

The joint venture will be majority owned by Orkla and operated by Sapa with the intention of eventually offering it to the public via an IPO. The combination of these two operations provide many opportunities to improve profitability by leveraging skill of a broader global manufacturing system. We are continuing to review assets throughout our portfolio for strategic fit and long-term shareholder value generation.

Let’s talk now about long-term growth. We have talked before about delivering results today while building for the future.

We believe in the significant growth potential of aluminum consumption over the next 15 years. We’re certain that now is the time to pursue our growth objectives to meet this demand, taking advantage of today’s results. Investing in improved competitiveness and meeting market growth in our profitable business are the right strategies for us.

Obviously, at the same time we cannot take our eyes off continuing to focus on existing assets and market productivity as well as in sustainability, preparing for incoming changes in our global, urban demographics, environmental challenges, consumption [inaudible] and their impact on our industry and our market. We believe these are the right strategies for the short and long-term value creation of the Company stakeholders.

Our upstream growth project remain on track and we are evaluating a number of new opportunities. I will talk about these projects which are at the bottom of the slide. We completed in Brazil the Alumar smelter, an expansion of 63,000 metric tons.

We completed this year in Australia the upgrade of the Pinjarra refinery adding 657,000 metric tons per year to our system. Perhaps the most significant growth project, the Alcoa Fjardaal, in Iceland, is on target to produce its first metal in the second quarter of 2007.

And construction is ongoing in Brazil on a bauxite mine in Juruti, in the Amazon region and our refinery expansion at our Sao Luis facility. Both will be on line in 2008 adding more than 200 million metric tons per year of capacity. AWAC share is 54% of this.

These upstream projects in smelting, refinery and bauxite mining are exciting in their potential to move us lower in our cash cost curve and give us further brownfield opportunities for growth potential. Obviously, we continually watch the market indicators closely for changes in trends and economic value creation and take a disciplined approach before committing to a project.

Our downstream growth initiatives have similar promise. In 2006 we continued to grow and strengthened our strategic downstream businesses. On the bottom of the slide, you can see some of pictures of Davenport, Samara in Russia, Bohai in China and Kunshan in China.

We extended our aerospace sheet and plate production by 50% with projects at Davenport, Kitts Green in England, Fusina in Italy and Belaya Kalitva in Russia. We continue with major modernization projects at our very successful Kofem facility in Hungary.

The projects are focused on adding brazing sheet capacity and the addition of Dura-Bright aluminum wheel production. Both are high value-added products with continuing growth potential.

And we continue to experience significant improvement in our new fabricating facility in Russia. And we are excited about the strategic advantage they hold. We will, by year-end 2007, have increased output at that facility by about 50%.

Finally, we continue to increase our strategic position in China. We believe firmly that in order to take advantage of the significant Chinese demand for aluminum fabricated product you must have manufacturing facilities within China and in other parts of Asia.

This is not new. We have been building our presence in China since 1993. And as you can see from this map, we have operating locations throughout Asia Pacific including Korea, Japan and Australia.

During 2006 we have continued to add to our strategic position with the Kunshan facility and the Bohai rolling mill and two new fastening system facilities near Shanghai. Projects like this show the future opportunities at Alcoa are limitless and global in every sense of the word.

Finally on financial performance, we closed 2006 as the best financial year for the Company as measured at both the top and the bottom lines. A higher LME price certainly was a positive factor, but our management team took full advantage of the opportunity the market offered by increasing revenue, mitigating costs, introducing new products and innovations to the market, expanding our global footprint, managing our portfolio and growing our customer base.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

We accomplished all of this while continuing to invest in modernizing our plants, building new operations that will enable us to deliver stronger results for years to come. We are delivering strong results now and investing in our future.

From a financial point of view we had a very successful 2006. A record income from continuing operations of $2.5 billion, or $2.90 per share before restructuring and impairment changes.

A record annual revenue of $30.4 billion, up 19% from prior year, year-over-year every market showed double-digit growth with the exception of automotive. Cash from operation at $2.6 billion, which includes the discretionary pension contributions of $200 million, was the second highest year in the Company history, and we maintain our debt to cap ratio well within our target range at 30.6.

Even if we made aggressive, even while we made aggressive capital investments in building for our future, excluding the adjustments due to the new pension accounting standard, this ratio would be the lowest since 2000. Finally, record Bloomberg trailing 12-month return on capital was 16.2% excluding construction work in progress and recent growth investments.

Now, let’s [cross] through a bridge comparing 2005 to 2006 financial performance. The most important point to take from this slide is that we drove almost 100%, actually 97%, of the LME price increase to the bottom line.

In the midst of two substantial and successful labor negotiations in the U.S., which caused cost increases, output reduction and added uncertainty to the market and customers, with start up costs in Iceland, with changes, charges from accounting changes. In addition, we can also see that the year-over-year taxes were a negative $13 million in 2006 compared to 2005, with the operational tax rate increasing from 27% to 27.3% on a year basis.

Even more importantly we were able to offset approximately 90% of the cost inflation, energy cost increases and currency impact with improved mix, higher volumes and improved productivity. This is a considerable performance improvement compared to 2005 when we were only able to bring approximately 20% of the LME price increase to the bottom line compared to almost 100% in 2006.

Well, we are a capital-intensive company. So these charts are the most important indicators for us on how we are performing.

Looking at return on capital on a trailing 12-month basis you can see steady and consistent improvement over the last eight quarters no matter if you look at it with construction work in progress or without. All of this improved performance, managed portfolio, managed cash flow, continued innovation and attention to detail have permitted us to take on the highest capital expenditure program we have ever entertained while maintaining a conservative debt to equity ratio, the lowest in the last five years.

All of this makes me believe and should make you believe we have a successful, solid core earning platform to continue to build on and grow.

I am proud of our 2006 accomplishments. Am I satisfied with it? No.

We will continue to push for improvements in areas such as working capital turns, fixed cost reduction, delivering on our construction and start up projects, the innovation and application technology taken to the market and new global market penetration.

I am, obviously, definitely not satisfied with our total shareholders return. I believe this had to do in part with the conscious capital expenditure plan we are implementing in our upstream businesses as well as the market continuing insecurity around worldwide demand and the impact of China on the overall market.

We think we understand these variables and we are doing the right things for today and tomorrow for our stakeholders. We are investing in our primary group.

We are improving profitability in our fabricated and diversified groups and we are divesting or restructuring underperforming businesses and plants. I believe that as we continue to focus on cash generation, return on capital and profitable growth, the market will eventually recognize and reward our performance.

Well, with a successful 2006 as a backdrop, let me now look forward to 2007 and talk about market fundamentals, market conditions, the impact of significant items to Alcoa and our 2007 operating targets.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

We believe the market will remain strong for 2007. There are two basic beliefs supporting this position. The world will continue to grow its demand for aluminum.

We projected 14% for China during our China webcast and that is probably on the conservative side as it exceeded 17% in 2006. Also, a solid 3% annual growth outside China.

Well, it was 6% plus in the U.S. and 3% plus in Europe. We believe China will be balanced going forward and will not be a significant exporter of primary aluminum.

For alumina, our supply and demand outlook does show a surplus in 2007 ranging from 1.5 to 3 million tons, depending on the ability of the Chinese to ramp-up their new refining capacity. We know that you will not see a physical inventory build of alumina because a supply response will be necessary and always takes place as there are no other use for alumina but smelter.

For aluminum we see a strong demand growth and in addition to this demand growth the world will lose a portion of current production supply in the U.S. and Europe where deregulated energy markets are causing smelting capacity to be shuttered due to uneconomic power rates. We believe it will be challenging for new smelting construction in the west to keep pace with this demand growth.

This is certainly supported by recent news concerning smelter expansions. Therefore, we believe aluminum markets will be balanced and potentially short over the coming years and we believe this will be the same in China as they begin to take on the environmental issues and the urbanization competition for power usage.

Now let’s talk about some of the specific downstream market that we serve. Aerospace. Commercial aircraft production will remain near historical highs for several years to come.

Airbus and Boeing are expected to delivering a record 900 units in 2007 and we are well positioned to take advantage of this continued strong market in structure, propulsion and fasteners.

Automotive. North American automotive production is expected to be slightly up in 2007 driven by gains at the Big Four transplants.

Automotive production levels in Europe are also expected to rise in 2007. However, we expect to see continuing weakness in our customer base demand in North America, segment sales will continue to be impacted by portfolio repositioning and announced restructuring in AFL.

Commercial transportation. 2006 pre-buying to beat 2007 engine regulation changes resulted in a record year for North American trucks. The 2007 drop will be significant around 40 to 50%.

Share gains in wheels, AFL heavy truck and fastener will mitigate a portion of this impact, and in addition, we see the trailer market flat to slightly up in 2007.

Building and construction. Non-residential construction growth is expected to slow somewhat in North America and Asia but still reflect healthy growth of 6% and 12% in North America and Asia. Europe construction rates will be less robust but still projected at 3 to 4%.

Finally, industrial projects. I’ll focus solely on industrial gas turbine market. We expect it to be approximately 10% decline, however, we are well positioned and expect to hold our revenue constant. Remember that the majority of the Howmet business is focused on aerospace.

We have had a number of portfolio improvement and some came on line during 2006, another will come on line during 2007. I’m sure that all of you have estimated a value for these high profile projects.

To help you better understand the financial impact of these items, we give you an EPS range for them. And remember that EPS improvement noted will not be spread evenly across four quarter of 2007 as we ramp these projects up.

The full-year impact of Pinjarra refinery expansion will net an additional 290,000 metric tons in 2007 over 2006 and will operate at its full capacity of 657,000 metric tons. The full-year impact of Alumar smelter expansion will net an additional 5,000 metric tons of aluminum as we operate its full potential at 63,000 metric ton.

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

Increase in ownership and the subsequent restart of the second potline in Intalco will add an additional 95,000 metric tons in 2007 as compared to 2006.

In the Fjardaal smelter will produce first metal in the second quarter of 2007 and is expected to yield a minimum of 100,000 metric tons for the year and then the full capacity of 344,000 metric tons in 2008. Start up costs have been netted against the volume to calculate the true financial impact in 2007.

Our Russia and China flat-rolled project investment will continue to improve in 2007 and we are still projecting that the Russian assets will be at a breakeven run rate by the third quarter of 2007.

Finally, the soft alloy extrusion joint venture and the additional restructuring that was announced will yield financial savings in 2007 concentrated in the last part of the year. In total, all of the above is expected to be worth approximately 15 to $0.20 per share in 2007 assuming current market conditions meaning this range will certainly fluctuate with the changing in metal price.

So let me close by highlighting our core financial targets for 2007. Our return on capital will continue to exceed the cost of capital. We were significantly over this threshold in 2006 and we will be again in 2007.

Cash from op will fully fund and actually exceed our capital expenditures. Volume, mix and productivity will completely offset cost inflation.

EBITDA margin will increase year-over-year in every downstream segment and debt to capital ratio will remain within the 30 to 35% range. And finally, we project our capital expenditure to be in the range of 3 to $3.2 billion in line with our 2006 expenditures.

As always we will continue to manage and review our capital structure to ensure a balance between flexibility, cost and shareholders value. And as we start 2007 with this tremendous prospect, I have never seen us as well positioned and with as good a market to show the result of our actions.

I have to also say that we never had a better team with which to do it. That is why I have a very high level of confidence. As great as 2006 has been, I believe the work done has laid a foundation for a great 2007.

Thank you for your time and now we would be happy to take on your questions.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

[OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS]. Your first question is from the line of Michael Gambardella of JPMorgan.

Michael Gambardella - JPMorgan Chase & Company - Analyst

Yes, good afternoon.

Have a question regarding the divestiture program. You’ve announced the soft alloy extrusion business, the joint venture and the subsequent IPO, it’s about, I believe, about $2 billion in annual sales at that business.

Can you tell us just in terms of annual sales, what are you looking at right now in terms of, or considering to divest in additional annual sales?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

We have no plans for divestiture for this year.

Michael Gambardella - JPMorgan Chase & Company - Analyst

In terms of what are you considering, though, because you mentioned that you are considering things.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

We said previously that we continue to examine our underperforming assets and basically that’s, at this point in time, the part of the packaging business and that we would make that decision sometime at the end of 2007, certainly 2008.

Michael Gambardella - JPMorgan Chase & Company - Analyst

Would you consider selling all of packaging?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

We sell the businesses that or do not fit or do not strategically make the kind of rate of return that we expect out of the business, so I am not willing to go to the point of saying that we would sell all of it.

Michael Gambardella - JPMorgan Chase & Company - Analyst

Okay. Thank you.

Your next question is from the line of David Gagliano of Credit Suisse.

David Gagliano - Credit Suisse Securities - Analyst

Hi. Just a quick question regarding the taxes. I was wondering if you could walk us through what the ATOIs for each segment would have been if we had sort of a normalized tax basis? Is there a way to wrap some ATOI numbers around a more normalized [inaudible]?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Well, David, we give you the taxes by quarter. I can tell you that a piece of the non-recurring tax items that’s included in the $69 million is in the Engineered Solutions segment, about $23 million and the rest of it is all operational within the segment.

So between corporate and the segments and getting the actual tax rate correct at the end of the year from an operational standpoint the only segment that’s impacted by the discreet items is Engineered Solutions.

David Gagliano - Credit Suisse Securities - Analyst

Okay. That’s helpful.

And just as a follow-up, you mentioned that you’re targeting cash flow from operations in 2007 to exceed Cap Ex. I’m just wondering, obviously, there’s an aluminum price assumption in there. I’m wondering what your aluminum price assumption is to [inaudible]?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

And your next question is from the line of Kuni Chen of Banc of America Securities. Please proceed.

Kuni Chen - Banc of America Securities - Analyst

Hi. Good evening.

Can you guys just comment on what your current priorities are as far as primary metal projects given what looks to be a slight delay in Trinidad? Is that still the forerunner and do you expect to get any new primary metal projects sort of off the ground over the next two years? Thanks.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

No, I don’t think we have any, if you mean off the ground you mean start up we have none. If you mean projects to start, the only one that we have, that we had at the moment in line to start up would be Trinidad and that is being delayed.

Kuni Chen - Banc of America Securities - Analyst

Okay.

Any other comment you can give us on Trinidad and what the situation looks like there over the next two to three quarters?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Well, it’s clearly in the hands of the government to decide where they want the project and they are having issues with the population in deciding where is the most convenient place or where is it that they don’t want it. We will wait for them to decide what they want to do.

Kuni Chen - Banc of America Securities - Analyst

Okay. Thank you.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

But you would not see it start up in the next two years at the end of the day that’s the question.

David Lipschitz - Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Yes. Thank you.

Can you talk more about the 10% decline in gas turbines? I was under the impression that the turbines, you know, the replacement cycle and all was doing very well.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Well, that’s our estimate of the market that you’ll have a 10% reduction in demand. And that will affect, obviously, the demand for the foil that we supply there, but we’re basically a small supplier in gas turbines, these days. We’re mostly concentrated on aerospace turbine.

David Lipschitz - Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Okay. Thank you.

Operator

And your next question is from the line of Hongyu Cai of Goldman Sachs.

Hongyu Cai - Goldman Sachs - Analyst

Hi. Thank you for the presentation.

I wonder if you could clarify a little bit about the operating result of this quarter and also your guidance? Regarding the $0.74 result, I wonder first of all, is the $0.08 per share tax benefit included in that $0.74?

And secondly, the gain on sale of the Home Exterior asset sale, that’s about $0.10. Also, if I follow the guidance from your press release a while ago, I wonder if that’s also included in the $0.74?

And the last question is about your guidance. Is the guidance of 15 to $0.20 increase next year based on the current aluminum price or not? Thank you.

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Yes. I’ll answer the last one first. Alain said that it was based on current market conditions so you can take that as a yes.

As far as the gain on the sale of the Home Exteriors it’s included in discontinued operations. The $0.74 is our income from continuing operations. So those are distinct and separate categories on the income statement.

And then your other question was the $0.74. The $0.74 excludes the restructuring and impairment charges but it includes the discrete tax items.

Hongyu Cai - Goldman Sachs - Analyst

Okay. To follow-up on the tax benefit, do you expect further benefit next year?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

We gave you an estimate of around 29% for next year.

And your next question comes from the line of Carlos [El Alba] of Morgan Stanley.

Carlos El Alba - Morgan Stanley - Analyst

Hi. Thank you.

My question is regarding the supply and demand balance or outlook for the aluminum market. When Alain, you mentioned that you expect closures in the western world. Do you have some metrics in particular that you can point to us?

Because I believe that in the Pacific Northwest there has been some restarts, [inaudible] restarting as well and Hamburg is also likely to be [inaudible] in line. So I would appreciates a little more of clarification on that topic.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

No, I cannot talk to you about that. I think all of these announcements are out, they’re out already or they’re pretty obvious where the problems are. So those are the kind of closures that I was talking about.

I think in the alumina side I meant that given that there’s no place to store alumina the result of it will be that the high cost refineries will have to shut down. We use Pt. Comfort as our flex capacity so when new capacities come in we tend to reduce production at Pt. Comfort. That, to a certain extent, what happened in the fourth quarter.

Carlos El Alba - Morgan Stanley - Analyst

Just a follow-up for Chuck.

Chuck, it’s fair to assume that the 15 to $0.20 annual improvement on EPS is based, or it’s on top of the $2.90 operating earnings that you made in 2006?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

That’s a loaded question, Carlos. I would say that the $2.90 was based on a whole separate set of operating activities and we would say from those particular projects we wanted to provide you guidance to put in the model with all the rest of your assumptions.

So the 15 to $0.20 is just a direct correlation to those specific projects.

Carlos El Alba - Morgan Stanley - Analyst

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

John Tumazos - Prudential Equity Group - Analyst

Following up on the earlier question, Slide 35 with the 15 to $0.20 from performance improvements appear to derive most of its benefit from the restructuring actions provided in the fourth quarter results thinning out 13,000 or so employees, et cetera.

I’m assuming that you’re not expecting a normal profit contribution from the 290,000 tons of new alumina and 200,000 tons of new metal output because of all of the start up issues with the restarted or greenfield new smelter? And that the following year, 2008, would be sort of a second phase to that slide number 35?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Not necessarily, John. The savings from the benefits of the restructuring was stated to be $125 million annually. It will take about a year to implement all the restructuring activities.

So even if they were all done it would be back end loaded and you will not get the full annual benefit. We never said the restructuring was $125 million in one year, we said once it is all done it will give you $125 million annually. That’s one piece.

The second piece on Pinjarra, you would expect a normal contribution from Pinjarra. And the last comment on the start up cost is, yes, when you’ve got something like the smelter in Iceland, you are going to incur start up costs leading up to when you’re producing good metal and then for a period of time in the early operation.

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Iceland costs you about 12 to $15 million a quarter. And hiring people and getting then to, you know, you have the full contingent of people probably starting January 1, and they’re going to be around until the end of the year when you finally reach full capacity.

John Tumazos - Prudential Equity Group - Analyst

Thank you.

Your next question is from the line of Charles Bradford of Bradford Research.

Charles Bradford - Bradford Research - Analyst

I’d like to talk more about the Iceland smelter. A lot of your competitors have been talking about cost overruns during the construction phase. Can you tell us how Iceland came about, turned out?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

I think as we said before, we’ve had overruns in labor costs and material costs in the smelter without giving you an exact amount. The way we look at the smelter, I think everybody in construction projects has been incurring overrun costs but in our looking at the smelter when we’re going to come on line and looking at a long-term metal price, we are still over cost of capital and very pleased with the progress and what the returns are going to be on this project.

Charles Bradford - Bradford Research - Analyst

Could you also tell us what you’re now using as the long-term price of aluminum?

Your next question is from the line of [inaudible] Deutsche Bank.

Unidentified Participant - Deutsche Bank Securities - Analyst

Yes, thanks.

Wanted to limit my question to capital spending in 2007. I’m a little modestly surprised that you’re expecting capital spending to basically stay flat year-over-year, I’m modestly surprised it’s not coming down a bit.

The two upstream projects that you’re spending most of the capital in in 2007, maybe it’d be helpful if you gave us a little, gave us a sense of what the capital cost for each of those were. My notes had suggested on a combination they were somewhere around $2 billion but maybe you could give me a little clarity on that?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Well, we do not give details on the project. But what you have in 2007, you’ve got basically somewhere by the end of the first quarter, the, how do you call, the end of the construction at Iceland which it still means we’ll have continuing expenses, but the major, the majority of the capital expenditure will be done at Iceland and in, how do you call, in Norway.

But at the same time we are having these, how do you call, the Juruti mine that is picking up speed and the, how do you call, the refinery at Sao Luis picking up speed.

We have a major project which is the energy, how do you call, a big energy work at Warrick operation, Indiana. And we have the hot mill in Bohai in China which are all getting to their peak construction cost during 2007.

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Just to add on to that, if you looked at our capital expenditures for this year, the growth capital was a little over 60% of our total capital and we wouldn’t see that change significantly next year.

Unidentified Participant - Deutsche Bank Securities - Analyst

Okay. Thank you much.

Rob Clifford - ABN AMRO - Analyst

Good evening, gentlemen.

I was just wondering if you’d comment on the progress of your discussions for gas with the Jamaican government? Has that stalled or is that progressing and what sort of time frame are you expecting to resolve that issue?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

The issue with our future expansions of the Jamaican plant is tied to a gas contract but the government in Jamaica with the government of Trinidad and this is, we’ve been waiting for that contract to be signed by the two countries to supply us the power for the expansion on our refinery. But that’s what it’s been waiting for.

Your next question is from the line of John Hill with Citigroup.

John Hill - Citigroup - Analyst

Congratulations on the strong result. It’s certainly great to see the Company making progress in so many different areas.

I was just wondering if you could revisit the comments on the alumina surplus? Obviously, the view is that it will be somewhat narrower, or quite a bit narrower than the market expects, high cost shutdowns some places, inability to store it, yet still there’s some very well placed commentators calling for these very large surpluses particularly out into ‘08, you know, 3 million tons, 5 million tons, bigger. What are these observers missing and where is the pain really going to be felt?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

Well, it’s pretty simple, John. First, thank you for the comment and we feel pretty good, really, about this year.

The bottom line is we’re talking about, let’s say, between 1.5 million and 3 million tons of excess alumina potential. And that assumes that all the starts ups in China go as predicted.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

With 1.5 to 3 million tons of excess capacity, you’re talking about something like 3 to 4% of world capacity, of world [installed] capacity, which is the degree of quality of estimates is way below this number. So first thing you’ve got to assume that the number is at least risky to go on to a 3% kind of number.

The second part of this, the facts of life are that when you have excess capacity of alumina, the spot price drops and you’ve seen the spot price today somewhere, I think at about 250, 275. There’s at least a third of the cash cost curve in the world today that loses cash [at] that kind of number and this usually are the plants that are in the spot market.

So my guess is some of these plants will shut down. You look around the world or if you look at CRU you’ll see how many plants are like that around the world. These are old plants and they survive in moments like the spot market last year but they don’t survive in the moment.

John Hill - Citigroup - Analyst

Great answer. Great answer.

On a related subject, I suppose to what would you attribute the recent uptick in midwest premiums up to 4.5, $0.05 from the sort of mid three’s that we’ve seen recently? Is that seasonality or are we seeing something more fundamental there do you think?

Alain Belda - Alcoa Inc. - Chairman, CEO

I think you’ve got transportation costs. Transportation costs by itself would justify at about $0.05 midwest premium.

And the market is tight. I mean at the end of the day you’re still talking a market that is below 40 days of inventory around the world for primary metal. And that is very, very sensitive [to] spot to be in.

So I think the market will continue to be tight for primary and the problem is you’ll have these kind of swings that you’re seeing at the moment in metal and I always discount the month of December because the month of December you have too many hedge funds and other people trying to improve their balance sheet and that kind of gives you a higher, how do you call, fluctuation than you normally would have.

But we’re seeing a lot of fluctuation at the moment. You’re seeing $100 a week. But it is reflective of the [inaudible] the number of, the [low] days you have in global inventory.

John Hill - Citigroup - Analyst

Very good. Thank you.

Jan. 09. 2007 / 5:00PM ET, AA - Q4 2006 ALCOA Inc Earnings Conference Call

Just judging from some of the questions earlier before, the piece that I read tomorrow harps on the tax benefit issue to the earnings. Could you talk a little bit about the $47 million LIFO non-cash charge in the quarter and was that, did you liquidate some inventory you might have built up during the second quarter price spike or was that a true up or just kind of help us with that please?

Chuck McLane - Alcoa Inc. - VP, CFO

Sure. Actually it’s pretty comparable when you think about it, Dave, on tax rates, you’re looking at a, as you go through the year on an operational rate based on the jurisdictions you’re in and you keep adjusting that as you go through the year.

LIFO’s pretty much the same. On LIFO you’re looking at the inflation factors and all your different cost components and you adjust it as you go through the year, and that was a charge to us because some of the costs factors went up in the fourth quarter and we had been basing them on a lower rate at the end of the third quarter. So it was caught up in kind of a, done on the same basis as you look at some of the tax operationally you see LIFO going the other way and it was charge to us, so very comparable.

Return on capital, excluding growth investments is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this

measure is meaningful to investors because it provides greater insight with respect to the underlying operating

performance of the company’s productive assets.  The company has significant growth investments underway in its

upstream and downstream businesses, as previously noted, with expected completion dates over the next several

years.  As these investments generally require a period of time before they are productive, management believes that a

return on capital measure excluding these growth investments is more representative of current operating performance.

Reconciliation of Income and EPS excluding

Restructuring Charges

Income

from

continuing

operations

–

excluding

restructuring

and

other

charges

is

a

non-GAAP

financial

measure.

The

following

matters

should

be

considered

when

evaluating

this

non-GAAP

financial

measure:

Alcoa

reviews

the

operating

results

of

its

businesses

excluding

the

impacts

of

restructurings

and

discontinued

operations.

Excluding

the

impacts

of

these

items

can

provide

an

additional

basis

of

comparison.

Management

believes

that

these

items

are

unusual

in

nature,

and

would

not

be

indicative

of

ongoing

operating

results.

As

a

result,

management

believes

these

items

should

be

considered

in

order

to

compare

past,

current,

and

future

periods.

The

economic

impacts

of

the

restructuring

charges

are

described

in

a

footnote

to

Alcoa’s

financial

statements.

Generally

speaking,

charges

associated

with

restructurings

include

cash

and

non-cash

charges

and

are

the

result

of

employee

layoff,

plant

consolidation

of

assets,

or

plant

closure

costs.

These

actions

are

taken

in

order

to

achieve

a

lower

cost

base

for

future

operating

results.

Restructuring

charges

and

discontinued

operations

are

typically

material

and

are

considered

to

be

outside

the

normal

operations

of

a

business.

Corporate

management

is

responsible

for

making

decisions

about

restructurings

and

discontinued

operations.

There

can

be

no

assurance

that

additional

restructurings

and

discontinued

operations

will

not

occur

in

future

periods.

To

compensate

for

this

limitation,

management

believes

that

it

is

appropriate

to

consider

both

income

from

continuing

operations

determined

under

GAAP

as

well

as

income

from

continuing

operations

excluding

restructuring

and

other

charges.

The effective tax rate, excluding restructuring charges is a non-GAAP financial measure.  Management believes that this measure is

meaningful to investors because it provides greater insight to the company’s tax position.  There can be no assurance that additional

restructuring charges will not occur in the future.  As a result, management believes that it is appropriate to consider the effective tax rate under

GAAP as well as after adjustment for restructuring charges.
