EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings

(loss), operating earnings (loss), ATOI, cash flow provided by operating activities or other income or cash flow data prepared in

accordance with GAAP. However, Alcoa’s management believes that EBITDA may provide additional information with respect to the

Company’s performance or ability to meet its financial obligations. The ratio of EBITDA to production is an additional measure of financial

performance. Because EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and may vary among companies, the EBITDA

presented by Alcoa may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
