PART I Item 1. Business. Alcoa is the world's largest integrated aluminum company, engaged in the production and sale of primary aluminum and semifabricated and finished aluminum products. It was formed in 1888 under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Alcoa produces and sells alumina and alumina based chemicals, a variety of other finished products, and components and systems for a multitude of applications. These products are used primarily by packaging, transporta- tion (including aerospace, automotive, rail and shipping), building and industrial customers worldwide. Alcoa has operating and sales locations in 26 countries. Discussion of Alcoa's operations and properties by its three business segments follows. The Alumina and Chemicals segment includes the production and sale of bauxite, alumina and alumina-based chemicals, and related transportation services. The Aluminum Processing segment includes the production and sale of molten metal, ingot, and aluminum products that are flatrolled, engineered or finished. Also included are power, transportation and other services. The Non-Aluminum Products segment includes the produc- tion and sale of electrical, ceramic, plastic, vinyl, and composite materials products, manufacturing equipment, gold, magnesium and steel and titanium forgings. Most aluminum facilities located in the United States (U.S.) are owned by the parent company. Alcoa of Australia Limited (AofA) and Alcoa Aluminio S.A. (Aluminio) in Brazil are the two largest operating subsidiaries. Alcoa serves a variety of customers in a number of markets. Consolidated revenues from these markets are: (dollars in millions) Revenues by Market 1994 1993 1992 - ------------------ ---- ---- ---- Packaging 2,830 $2,606 $2,803 Alumina and Chemicals 1,494 1,437 1,422 Transportation 1,671 1,397 1,526 Building and Construction 1,391 1,299 1,190 Distributor and Other 1,570 1,274 1,215 Aluminum Ingot 948 1,042 1,336 ------ ------ ------ Total Sales and Operating Revenues $9,904 $9,055 $9,492 ====== ====== ====== Segment and geographic area financial information are presented in Note P to the Financial Statements. 2 In December 1994 and January 1995, Alcoa and Western Mining Corporation Holdings Limited (WMC) entered into a multistep transaction to restructure and combine the owner ship of their respective world-wide bauxite, alumina and alumina-based chemicals businesses and investments into a group of companies (Enterprise) owned 60% by Alcoa and 40% by WMC, except that WMC's ownership interest in AofA equals 39.25%. WMC is a mining company headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, and is generally involved in mining nickel, gold, copper and uranium. In connection with the establishment of the Enterprise, WMC sold to Alcoa 9% of its interests in AofA (thereby bringing Alcoa's ownership in AofA to 60% and reducing WMC's ownership to 39.25%) and made a net payment of $312.9 million that is subject to final upward and downward adjustments in certain circumstances. The payment is net of a $121.8 million loan to WMC in January 1995 by one of the entities of the Enterprise. The conclusion of the restructuring and combination of certain businesses and investments in Brazil between Alcoa, WMC and third party investors in Aluminio is expected to occur late in the first quarter of 1995. The Enterprise is a series of affiliated operating entities and assets comprised of the following bauxite, alumina and alumina-based chemicals interests and other necessary but ancillary facilities that will be run as part of an integrated operation at certain locations included within the Enterprise: 1. 99.25% ownership interest in AofA, including its aluminum smelting and fabricating operations; 2. All of Alcoa's interests in bauxite mining, alumina refining and aluminum smelting operations at Point Comfort, Texas (refining only); Halco Mining, Inc. in Guinea (mining only); Jamaica (mining and refining); and Suriname (mining, refining and smelting); 3. All of Alcoa's bauxite and alumina shipping operations; 4. All of Alcoa's alumina-based chemicals businesses in the U.S., Australia, Japan, the Netherlands, Germany, Singapore and India; and 5. 35% of Aluminio's interest in the Alumar alumina refinery at Sao Luis, Brazil (Alumar Refinery) and in Mineracao Rio do Norte S.A. (MRN) (mining only). A five-member Strategic Council, three members of which are appointed by Alcoa and two by WMC, will provide counsel and direction to the Enterprise. Alcoa will provide operating management for all of the affiliated operating entities. Alcoa and WMC will both have the right to be represented on the Board of Directors of each Enterprise entity, but there have been no changes made to the Board, the management or the structure of AofA. Competition The markets for most aluminum products are highly competitive. Price, quality and service are the principal compe titive factors in most of these markets. Where aluminum products compete with other materials, the diverse characteristics of aluminum are also a significant factor, particularly its light weight and recyclability. The compe- titive conditions are discussed later for each of the Company's major product classes. The Company continues to examine all aspects of its operations and activities and redesign them where necessary to enhance effectiveness and achieve cost reductions. Alcoa believes that its competitive position is enhanced by its improved processes, extensive facilities and willingness and ability to commit capital where necessary to meet growth in important markets, and by the capability of its employees. Research and development, and an increased emphasis on full utilization of technology, 3 have led to improved product quality and production tech- niques, new product development and cost control. The dissolution of the Soviet Union and the lack of a mechanism to successfully integrate its economy with market economies significantly contributed to a global oversupply of aluminum in recent years. Prior to 1991 former Soviet aluminum producers primarily served internal markets which weakened substantially after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and aluminum produced at former Soviet smelters began to be exported. These exports caused an imbalance in demand and supply and resulted in severe downward pressure on aluminum prices. In late 1993, discussions among the governments of six major primary aluminum-producing nations were initiated to address the global aluminum supply situation. A multi- government accord was reached among Australia, Canada, the European Union (EU), Norway, Russia and the U.S. in January 1994 under which the Russian industry would reduce its annual aluminum exports for up to two years, the EU would refrain from renewing import quotas on Russian ingot when the quotas expired at the end of February 1994, and certain of the participating governments would create a fund to assist in the modernization of the Russian industry. In response to market conditions, in 1994 Alcoa reduced primary aluminum production by 100,000 mt per year at the Company's smelters at Rockdale, Texas and Wenatchee, Washington. These reductions were in addition to Alcoa's indefinite curtailments during 1993 of 310,000 mt of U.S. smelting production. AofA also reduced production in 1994 by 25,000 mt at its Point Henry smelter in Geelong, Australia. The joint venture smelter in Portland, State of Victoria, in which AofA owns a 45% interest, completed a reduction of 26,000 mt. Also in 1994 the Company's subsidiary in Suriname (Suralco) completed a reduction of 3,000 mt. Other Risk Factors In addition to the risks inherent in the Company's worldwide business and operations, the Company is exposed generally to market, financial, political and economic risks. Commodity Risks Alcoa is a leading global producer of aluminum ingot and aluminum fabricated products. Aluminum ingot is an interna tionally priced, sourced and traded commodity. The principal trading market for ingot is the London Metal Exchange (LME). Alcoa participates in this market by buying and selling forward portions of its aluminum requirements and output. In 1993, when world metal prices reached an all-time low, Alcoa temporarily idled 310,000 mt of its primary aluminum production. Further reductions in early 1994 brought Alcoa's total worldwide idled capacity to 450,000 mt. See "Competition" above. For purposes of risk assessment, Alcoa divides its operations into four regions: U.S., Pacific, Other Americas and Europe. The Pacific, principally Australia, and the Other Americas, principally Brazil, are in net long metal positions and, from time to time, may sell production forward. Europe has no smelting operations controlled by Alcoa and, accordingly, is net short and may purchase forward positions from time to time. At the present time, forward purchase activity within these three regions is not material. In 1994 the Company had entered into longer-term contracts with a variety of customers in the U.S. for the supply of approximately 1,500,000 mt of aluminum products over the next several years. As a hedge against the economic risk of higher prices for metal needs associated with these contracts, Alcoa entered into long positions using principally futures and option contracts. At December 4 31, 1994, these contracts totaled approximately 1,400,000 mt. The contracts limit the unfavorable effect of price increases on metal purchases and likewise limit the favorable effect from price declines. The futures and option contracts are with creditworthy counterparties and are further supported by cash, treasury bills or irrevocable letters of credit issued by carefully chosen banks, as appropriate. For financial accounting purposes, the gains and losses on the hedging contracts are reflected in earnings concurrent with the hedged costs. The cash flows from these contracts are classified in a manner consistent with the underlying nature of the transactions. The volatility of aluminum market prices can produce significant fluctuations in the periodic mark-to-market measurement of the futures and option contracts. Focusing only on that valuation is meaningless because the effect of price changes on future hedged metal purchases will approximately equal and offset the mark- to-market valuation of the contract position. Alcoa intends to close out the hedging contracts at the time it purchases the metal from third parties, thus creating the right economic match both in time and price. The deferred gains on the hedging contracts at December 31, 1994 are expected to offset the increase in the price of the purchased metal. The expiration dates of the call options and the delivery dates of the futures contracts do not always coincide exactly with the dates on which Alcoa is required to purchase metal in order to perform under its customer agreements. Accordingly, the Company anticipates rolling forward some of its futures and option positions. This may result in significant cash inflows if the hedging contracts are "in-the-money" at the time they are rolled forward. Conversely, there could be significant cash outflows if metal prices fall below the price of contracts being rolled forward. In late 1994 Alcoa implemented a program to protect the unrealized gains that result from the increase in metal prices. Approximately 10% of its hedge position was protected at the end of 1994 through the purchase of options from highly rated financial institutions. The maximum risk on the option contracts is the premiums paid. In addition, Alcoa had 14,000 mt of LME contracts out standing at year-end 1994 that cover fixed-price commitments to supply customers with metal from internal sources. Accounting convention requires that these contracts be marked-to-market. Alcoa also purchases other commodities, such as natural gas and copper, for its operations and enters into contracts to eliminate volatility in the prices of such products. None of these contracts are material. Financial Risk Alcoa is subject to exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies. As a matter of policy, Alcoa enters into foreign currency exchange contracts, including forwards and options, to manage its transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. To keep financing costs as low as possible, Alcoa uses interest rate swaps to maintain a balance between fixed and floating rate debt. Risk Management All of the aluminum and other commodity contracts, as well as the various types of financial instruments, are straightforward. They are primarily entered into for the purpose of removing uncertainty and volatility, and principally cover underlying exposures. Alcoa's commodity and derivative activities are subject to the management, direction and control of its Strategic Risk Management Committee. The committee is composed of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and other officers and 5 employees that the Chief Executive Officer may select from time to time. The committee reports to the Board of Directors at each meeting on the scope of Alcoa's activities and programs. In 1994 Alcoa tested its policies regarding its derivatives and commodities trading activities against the recom mendations of the "Group of 30." A clarified policy was approved by the Board. The "Group of 30" was a global derivatives study group formed to help dealers and users better manage risks and issues associated with derivative activities. It was composed of worldwide industry representatives, bankers, central bankers and academics whose recommendations included issues related to the role of senior management (including the board of directors), authorization, control and disclosure of derivatives. For additional information on financial instruments, see Note R to the Financial Statements. Major Interests Outside the United States Alcoa International Holdings Company (AIHC), a subsi- diary, holds most of the Company's investments in Australia, Hungary and Norway, nonEnterprise investments in Japan and the Netherlands, and several wholly owned subsidiaries that act as sales representatives and distributors outside the U.S. for products produced by various Alcoa operations not included within the Enterprise. In 1988 AIHC issued $250 million of voting preferred stock, $50 million of which was redeemed in 1994. AofA, owned 60% by AIHC since the establishment of the Enterprise, operates integrated aluminum facilities in Australia, including mining, refining, smelting and fabricating facilities. More than half of AofA's 1994 revenues were derived from alumina, and the balance was derived principally from primary aluminum, rigid container sheet (RCS) and gold. Alcoa Brazil Holdings Company (ABHC) holds Alcoa's 59% interest in Aluminio, an integrated aluminum producer in Brazil. Aluminio operates mining, refining, smelting and fabricating facilities at various locations in Brazil. Approximately 21% of Aluminio's 1994 revenues were derived from primary aluminum, and exports accounted for approximately one fourth of its revenues. In connection with the establishment of the Enterprise, during the first quarter of 1995, Abalco S.A. (Abalco) in Brazil, 60% owned by ABHC and 40% owned by WMC, will acquire 35% of Aluminio's 54% and 13.2% interests in the Alumar Refinery and MRN, respectively, thus obtaining effective ownership of 18.9% in the Alumar Refinery and 4.6% in MRN. Alcoa Alumina & Chemicals, L.L.C. (owned 60% by Alcoa and 40% by WMC) holds all of the Company's bauxite, alumina and industrial chemicals investments in Guinea, India, Japan, Singapore and the U.S. and, with Alcoa Caribbean Alumina Holdings, L.L.C. (also owned 60% by Alcoa and 40% by WMC), holds all of the Company's bauxite and alumina operations in Jamaica and the bauxite, alumina and smelting operations in Suriname. Alumina and Chemicals Segment Bauxite, aluminum's principal raw material, is refined into alumina through a chemical process and is then smelted into primary aluminum. Approximately one half of the Company's alumina production in 1994 was sold to third parties. The Company sells alumina-based chemicals to customers in a broad spectrum of industries for use in refractories, ceramics, abrasives, chemicals processing and other specialty applications. Bauxite Most of the bauxite mined and alumina produced by the Company, except by AofA, is further processed into aluminum. All of the Company's bauxite interests are now included in the Enterprise with 6 the exception of Alcoa's bauxite mines in Arkansas, and Aluminio's 8.6% interest in MRN and its bauxite mines in Pocos de Caldas, Brazil. The Company has long-term contracts to purchase bauxite mined by a partially-owned entity in the Republic of Guinea which is now included among the investments of the Enter- prise. Alcoa negotiated new agreements in 1994 to replace the contracts scheduled to expire in 1995. The new agree- ments expire after 2011. This bauxite services most of the requirements of the Point Comfort, Texas alumina refinery. Suralco mines bauxite in Suriname under rights which expire after the year 2000. Suralco also holds a 26% minority interest in a bauxite mining joint venture managed by the majority owner, a Billiton affiliate formerly of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group which was acquired in 1994 by Gencor Limited of South Africa (Gencor). Bauxite from both mining operations serves Suralco's share of the refinery in Suriname referred to below. AofA's bauxite mineral leases expire in 2003. Renewal options allow AofA to extend the leases until 2045. The natural gas requirements of the refineries are supplied primarily under a contract with the parties comprising the North West Shelf Gas Joint Venture. The contract expires in 2005 and imposes minimum purchase requirements. Bauxite mining rights in Jamaica expire after the year 2020. These rights are owned by the joint venture with the government of Jamaica referred to in the next section. Alumina Alumina, a commodity, is sold principally from operations in Australia, Jamaica and Suriname. Most of the alumina supply contracts are negotiated on the basis of agreed volumes over a multi-year time period to assure a continuous supply of alumina to the smelters which receive the alumina. Most alumina is sold under contracts where prices are negotiated periodically or are based on formulas related to aluminum ingot market prices or to production costs. An imbalance of alumina demand and supply has resulted in declining alumina prices. AofA is the world's largest and one of the lowest-cost producers of alumina. Its three alumina plants, located in Kwinana, Pinjarra and Wagerup in Western Australia, have in the aggregate an annual rated capacity of approximately 6.4 million mt. Most of AofA's alumina is sold under supply contracts to a number of customers worldwide. Suralco owns 55% of the 1.6 million mt per year alumina refinery in Paranam, Suriname and operates the plant. An affiliate of Gencor holds the remaining 45%. An Alcoa subsidiary and a corporation owned by the government of Jamaica are equal participants in a joint venture, managed by the subsidiary, that owns an alumina refinery in Clarendon Parish, Jamaica. Annual alumina capacity at the Clarendon refinery will be increased from 800,000 to approximately 1,000,000 mt in the next several years. Aluminio is the operator of the Alumar Consortium (Alumar), a costsharing and production-sharing venture which owns a large refining and smelting project near the northern coastal city of Sao Luis, Brazil. The Alumar Refinery has an annual capacity of approximately 1,000,000 mt, and is owned 35.1% by Aluminio, 36% by an affiliate of Gencor, 18.9% by Abalco and 10% by an affiliate of Alcan Aluminium Limited (Alcan). A majority of the alumina production is consumed at the smelter. Aluminio holds an 8.6% interest and Abalco holds a 4.6% interest in MRN, a mining company which is jointly owned by affiliates of Alcan, Companhia Brasileira de Aluminio, Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, Gencor, Norsk Hydro and Reynolds Metals Company. Aluminio purchases bauxite from MRN under a long-term supply contract. 7 At Pocos de Caldas, Brazil, Aluminio mines bauxite and operates a refinery which produces alumina, primarily for its nearby smelter. Industrial Chemicals Alcoa sells industrial chemicals to customers in a broad spectrum of markets for use in refractories, ceramics, abrasive chemicals processing and other specialty applica- tions. A variety of industrial chemicals, principally alumina based chemicals, are produced or processed at plants located in Mobile, Alabama; Bauxite, Arkansas; Ft. Meade, Florida; Dalton, Georgia; Lake Charles and Vidalia, Louisiana; Leetsdale, Pennsylvania; Nashville, Tennessee; Point Comfort, Texas; Kwinana, Australia; Pocos de Caldas and Salto, Brazil; Ludwigshafen, Germany; Iwakuni and Naoetsu, Japan; and Moerdijk and Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Aluminum fluoride, used in aluminum smelting, is produced from fluorspar or fluosilicic acid at Point Comfort and Ft. Meade. With the exception of the plants located in Pocos de Caldas and Salto, all of these facilities are now part of the Enterprise. In 1993 the Company and The Associated Cement Companies Ltd. of Bombay, India formed a joint venture to import, process and market tabular alumina and alumina-based chemi- cals for the refractory and ceramic industries in India. The venture expects to complete construction of its processing plant in Falta, India in 1995. In September 1994, Aluminio acquired the assets of a fused alumina plant in Salto, Brazil from Carborundum. Aluminum Processing Segment Revenues and shipments for the principal classes of products in the aluminum processing segment are as follows: (dollars in millions) 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- Revenues: Aluminum ingot $ 920 $1,042 $1,336 Flat-rolled products 3,201 2,974 3,189 Engineered products 1,882 1,528 1,527 Other aluminum products 473 430 465 ------ ------ ----- Total $6,476 $5,974 $6,517 ====== ====== ====== (mt in thousands) Shipments: Aluminum ingot 655 841 1,023 Flat-rolled products 1,381 1,271 1,323 Engineered products 433 379 353 Other aluminum products 82 89 98 ----- ----- ----- Total 2,551 2,580 2,797 ===== ===== ===== Aluminum Ingot The Company smelts primary aluminum from alumina obtained principally from the alumina refineries discussed earlier. Smelters are located at Warrick, Indiana; Massena, New York; Badin, North Carolina; Alcoa, Tennessee; Rockdale, Texas; Wenatchee, Washington; Point Henry and Portland, Australia; Pocos de Caldas and Sao Luis, Brazil; and Paranam, Suriname. The Company's smelting operations in Australia and Paranam, Suriname have been included in the Enterprise. Alcoa's consolidated annual rated primary aluminum capacity is approximately 1.9 million mt. When operating 8 at capacity, the Company's smelters more than satisfy the primary aluminum requirements of the Company's fabricating operations. Purchases of aluminum scrap (principally used beverage cans), supplemented by purchases of ingot when necessary, satisfy any additional aluminum requirements. Most of the Company's primary aluminum production in 1994 was delivered to other Alcoa operations for alloying and/or further fabricating. The joint venture smelter at Portland, Victoria, with an annual rated capacity of 320,000 mt, is owned 45% by AofA, 25% by the State of Victoria, 10% by the First National Resource Trust, 10% by the China International Trust and Investment Corporation, and 10% by Marubeni Aluminium Australia Pty., Ltd. (Portland Smelter Participants). A subsidiary of AofA operates the smelter. Each Portland Smelter Participant is required to contribute to the cost of operations and construction in proportion to its interests in the venture and is entitled to its proportionate share of the output. Alumina is supplied by AofA. The Portland site can accommodate additional smelting capacity. The Alumar Consortium aluminum smelter at Sao Luis, Brazil has an annual rated capacity of 328,000 mt. Aluminio receives about 54% of the primary aluminum production. The Company utilizes electric power, natural gas and other forms of energy in its refining, smelting and processing operations. Aluminum is produced from alumina by an electrolytic process requiring large amounts of electric power. Electric power accounts over time for approximately 25% of the Company's primary aluminum costs. The Company generates approximately 40% of the power used at its smelters worldwide. Most firm power purchase contracts tie prices to aluminum prices or to prices based on various indices. Over 40% of the power for the Point Henry smelter is generated by AofA using its extensive brown coal deposits. The balance of the power, and power for the Portland, Victoria smelter, is available under contracts with the State Electricity Commission of Victoria. Power prices are tied by formula to aluminum prices. The State Government of Victoria has announced its desire to renegotiate the power contract for the Point Henry and Portland smelters, but, after discussions, confirmed that the existing base contracts will be honored. Discussions are continuing on other aspects of power supply to the smelters, such as the terms on which additional power may be made available. Electric power for Alumar's Sao Luis smelter is purchased from the government-controlled power grid in Brazil at a small discount from the applicable industrial tariff price and is protected by a cap based on the LME price of aluminum. Aluminio's Pocos de Caldas smelter purchases firm and interruptible power from the government controlled electric utility. Aluminio has prepaid all of the Pocos de Caldas facility's electricity requirements through January 1, 1996. Over 50% of the power requirements for Alcoa's U.S. smelters is generated by the Company and the remainder is purchased from others under long-term contracts. Less than 10% of the self-generated power results from the Company's entitlement to a fixed percentage of the output from a hydro electric power facility located in the northwestern United States. The Company generates substantially all of the power used at its Warrick smelter using coal reserves near the smelter that should satisfy requirements through the late 1990s. Lignite is used to generate power for the Rockdale, Texas smelter. Company-owned generating units supply about half of the total requirements and the balance is purchased from a dedicated power plant under a contract which expires not earlier than 2013. See "Environmental" below. In connection with the electric power generated for the aluminum smelters at Alcoa, Tennessee and Badin, North Carolina, two subsidiaries of the Company own and operate hydroelectric facilities subject to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission licenses effective until 2005 and 2008, respectively. For the Tennessee plant, the Company also purchases firm and interruptible power from the Tennessee Valley Authority under a contract which expires in 2000. For the Badin plant, the Company purchases 9 additional power under an evergreen contract providing for specified periods of notice before termination by either party. The purchased power contract for the Massena smelter expires not earlier than 2003 but may be terminated by the Company with one year's notice. Alcoa has two principal power contracts for its Wenatchee smelter. The contract from the power output entitlement referred to above expires in 2011. The contract with Bonneville Power Administration expires in 2001 and includes 25% interruptible power. Power restrictions may occur when precipitation is below normal. Beginning in 1995, a portion of the power supplied under the entitlement contract will be replaced by power purchased from the local public utility district. Additional power also may be purchased from the district. Although not included in the revenues by market or revenues and shipments tables above or in the rated primary aluminum capacity figure above, the Company reports equity earnings from its interest in two primary aluminum smelters in Norway. Elkem Aluminium ANS, 50% owned by Norsk Alcoa A/S, a subsidiary, is a partnership that owns and operates the smelters. Flat-Rolled Products The Company's flat-rolled products serve three principal markets: light gauge sheet products serve principally the packaging market, and sheet and plate products serve principally the transportation and building and construction markets. Alcoa employs its own sales force for most products sold in the packaging market. Most of the packaging revenues in 1994 were derived from RCS sold to can companies to make beverage and food cans, and can ends. The number of RCS customers in the U.S. is relatively small, in part because the number of can companies has been shrinking. Use of aluminum beverage cans continues to increase, particularly in Asia, Europe and South America, where per capita consump- tion remains relatively low. Aluminum foil and non-RCS packaging sheet are sold principally in the packaging markets. Aluminum's diverse characteristics, particularly its light weight and recyclability, are significant factors in packaging markets where alternatives such as steel, plastic and glass are competitive materials. Leadership in the packaging markets is maintained by improving processes and facilities, as well as by providing research and technical support to customers. Light gauge aluminum sheet and foil products are manu- factured at several locations. RCS is produced at Warrick, Indiana; Alcoa, Tennessee; Point Henry, Australia; Moka, Japan (a joint venture facility); and Swansea, Wales. Light gauge sheet and foil are produced at Lebanon, Pennsylvania and foil also is produced at Davenport, Iowa. Light gauge sheet, foil products and laminated evaporator panels are manufactured by Aluminio at Recife, Brazil. In early 1995 the Company and Shanghai Aluminum Fabri- cation Plant (SAFP) agreed to form a joint venture company to acquire and operate SAFP's existing aluminum foil and foil laminate production facility in Shanghai, China. The joint venture company will be owned 60% by Alcoa and 40% by SAFP. The facilities currently produce approximately 8,500 mt of aluminum foil per year. The joint venture is expected to commence operations at the end of March 1995, following receipt of all necessary Chinese government approvals. Used aluminum beverage cans are an important source of metal for RCS. The cost of used beverage cans declined in 1993 and in early 1994 as primary aluminum prices dropped but rebounded thereafter. Recycling aluminum conserves raw materials, reduces litter and saves energy about 95% of the energy needed to produce aluminum from bauxite. Also, recycling capacity costs much less than 10 new primary aluminum capacity. Can recycling or remelt facilities are located at or near Alcoa's Indiana and Tennessee plants. The Company has a joint venture with Kobe Steel, Ltd. (Kobe) in Japan. The venture, KSL Alcoa Aluminum Company, Ltd. (KAAL), began commercial operations from its newly constructed cold rolling mill at Moka, Japan in 1993. It manufactures and sells RCS in Japan and other Asian countries. AIHC holds a 50% interest in KAAL. Alcoa supplies aluminum to the joint venture. Sheet and plate products principally serve aerospace, automotive, lithographic, railroad, ship building, building and construction, defense and other industrial and consumer markets. The Company maintains its own sales forces for most of these products. Differentiation of material properties, price and service are significant competitive factors. Aluminum's diverse characteristics are important in these markets, where competitive materials include steel and plastics for automotive and building applications; magnesium, titanium, composites and plastics for aerospace and defense applications; and wood and vinyl in building and construction applications. The Company's largest sheet and plate plant is located at Davenport, Iowa. It produces products requiring special alloying, heat treating and other processing, some of which are unique or proprietary. The Company serves European sheet and plate markets through a distribution center opened in Paal, Belgium during late 1993. Alcoa continues to develop alloys and products for aerospace applications, such as new aluminum alloys for application in the Boeing 777 aircraft. A research and development effort also has resulted in the commercial development of a series of aluminum and aluminum-lithium alloys which offer significant weight savings over traditional materials for aerospace and defense applications. The Company and Kobe also have two joint venture companies, one in the U.S. and one in Japan, to serve the transportation industry. The initial emphasis of these companies is on expanding the use of aluminum sheet products in passenger cars and light trucks. In late 1992 AIHC acquired a 50.1% interest in Kofem Kft., a subsidiary of the government-owned Hungarian Alumi- nium Industrial Corporation (Hungalu). The venture, Alcoa Kofem Kft. (A-K), produces common alloy flat and coiled sheet, soft alloy extrusions and end products for the building, construction, food and agricultural markets in central and western Europe. A-K will invest up to $146 million, including part of AIHC's initial investment, over a period of five years for product quality and environmental and safety upgrades at the A-K facility. Alcoa is providing technological and operational expertise to A-K. Engineered Products Engineered products principally include extrusion and tube, wire, rod and bar, forgings, castings, aluminum building products, aluminum memory disk blanks and other products which are sold in a wide range of markets, but principally in the transportation market. Aluminum extrusions and tube are produced principally at five U.S. locations. The Chandler, Arizona plant produces hard alloy extrusions and tube; the Lafayette, Indiana plant produces a broad range of common and hard alloy extrusions and tube; the Baltimore, Maryland plant produces large press extrusions; and plants at Tifton, Georgia and Delhi, Louisiana produce common alloy extrusions. In 1994, the Company announced the shutdown of the hard alloy extrusion and tube and forgings facilities at its Vernon, California plant following rejection of its proposal for union contract concessions, however, it continues to produce cast aluminum plate at the plant. In late 1993 Alcoa and VAW Aluminium AG (VAW) formed a joint venture to produce and market high-strength aluminum extrusions, tube and rod to serve principally European transportation and 11 defense markets. An Alcoa subsidiary owns 60% and VAW owns 40% of the venture which is called Alcoa VAW Hannover Presswerk GmbH & Co. KG and is located in Hannover, Germany. Alcoa's Delhi facility is supplying Toyota Motor Company (Toyota) with extruded aluminum front and rear bumpers for the 1995 Toyota Avalon to be assembled at Georgetown, Kentucky. The bumpers were jointly designed by Alcoa and Toyota. The Company also produces extrusions in the Netherlands. See "Other Aluminum Products" below. A 50-50 limited partnership formed with Kobe in 1991 to manufacture and market aluminum tube for photoreceptors for North American markets ceased manufacturing operations in early 1994 and was dissolved in late 1994. Alcoa Construction Products produces and markets resi- dential aluminum siding and other aluminum building products. These products are sold principally to distributors and jobbers. Aluminum forgings are produced at Cleveland, Ohio; and Bologne, France. Forgings are sold principally in the aerospace, defense and transportation markets. Forged aluminum wheels for truck, bus and automotive markets are produced at Cleveland, Ohio. During the first quarter of 1995 the Company formed a joint venture with a subsidiary of CMI International, Inc. to produce cast aluminum automotive parts. The Company holds a 50% interest in the venture called A-CMI. Mechanical-grade redraw rod, wire and cold-finished rod and bar are produced at Massena, New York and are sold to distributors and customers for a variety of applications in the building and transportation markets. Aluminum extruded products are manufactured by a sub- sidiary of Aluminio in Argentina and at several Aluminio locations in Brazil. Aluminio also produces aluminum electrical cables at its Pocos de Caldas plant. Other Aluminum Products Alcoa Automotive Structures GmbH was formed in 1991 to produce aluminum components and sub-assemblies for aluminum automotive spaceframes. Aluminum spaceframes represent a significant departure from the traditional method and material used to manufacture primary auto body structures. In 1993 Alcoa completed construction and began operating a unique multi-million dollar plant in Soest, Germany to supply aluminum spaceframe products to its first customer, Audi AG. In 1994 Audi began marketing its new A8 luxury sedan, the first automobile to utilize a complete aluminum spaceframe body structure. The aluminum body structure of the A8 is a result of a cooperation between Alcoa and Audi that began in 1981, and is constructed from components and subassemblies that are or will be produced by Alcoa. Alcoa continues to cooperate with several automobile manufacturers in Europe, North America and Japan to develop new automotive applications for aluminum products. In February 1995 Alcoa announced plans to build a plant in Northwood, Ohio, near Toledo, to manufacture aluminum structural assemblies for the automotive industry. Aluminio produces aluminum truck and van bodies in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Alcoa produces aluminum closures for bottles at Richmond, Indiana; Worms, Germany; Nogi and Ichikawa, Japan; and near Barcelona, Spain. 12 The Company sells aluminum scrap and produces and markets aluminum paste, particles, flakes and atomized powder. Subsidiaries of Alcoa Nederland Holding B.V. (ANH) produce extrusions, common alloy sheet products and a variety of finished products for the building industry, such as aluminum windows, doors and aluminum ceiling systems, as well as products for the agricultural industry such as automated greenhouse systems. Alutodo de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., a subsidiary, buys and sells aluminum and aluminum products through distribution centers at several locations in Mexico. Non Aluminum Products Segment Alcoa produces plastic closures for bottles at Craw- fordsville, Indiana; Olive Branch, Mississippi; Buenos Aires, Argentina; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Santiago, Chile; Tianjin, China; Bogota, Colombia; Tellig, Germany; Szekesfehervar, Hungary; Nogi and Ichikawa, Japan; Saltillo, Mexico; and near Barcelona, Spain. The Company operates a plastic closures decorating facility at Lima, Peru and expects to start up plastic closures and PET injection and blow molding facilities at Lima in 1995. Aluminio developed technology for and now produces PET preforms and finished PET bottles at several plant and customer sites in Brazil and Argentina. Pre-forms and bottles are also made at Saltillo, Mexico. In 1994 the Company and Zepf Technologies USA Inc. formed Alcoa Zepf, L.L.C, a joint venture company 60% controlled by the Company, which manufactures rapid change over and quick-change bottle control parts for the beverage industry. Alcoa also participates in a joint venture with Al Zayani Investments W.L.L. of Bahrain, known as Gulf Closures W.L.L., that manufactures plastic beverage container closures for markets in the Middle East. Alcoa's worldwide closure businesses are coordinated from Indianapolis, Indiana. The use of plastic closures has surpassed that of aluminum closures for beverage containers in the U.S. and is gaining momentum in other countries. The Company manufactures packaging equipment and machinery, principally for producing and decorating metal cans and can ends. In addition, the Company manufactures a line of equipment for applying plastic or aluminum closures to beverage containers. Alcoa also owns a minority interest in a company which sells food packaging machinery that fills and seals metal and multi-layered polymer and paper containers. Alcoa Fujikura Ltd. (AFL), owned 51% by Alcoa and 49% by Fujikura Ltd. of Japan, produces and markets automotive electrical distribution systems (EDS), as well as fiber optic products and systems for selected electric utilities and telecommunications markets. AFL is a Q-1 supplier and recently received the Ford Motor Company TQE Award. AFL is now supplying EDS to Subaru of America, Inc. (in the U.S.), Auto Alliance, Inc. (Mazda-Ford joint venture) and PACCAR Inc. In 1994 AFL acquired a 90% interest in Michels GmbH & Co. KG, a manufacturer of EDS for automobiles, appliances and farm equipment with three plants in Germany and five plants in Hungary. AFL's Stribel group of companies are European manufacturers of electromechanical and electronic components for the European automotive market. Alcoa Construction Product's principal product for building and construction markets is vinyl siding. Other non-aluminum building products include vinyl windows, window lineal systems, shutters and building accessories, and wood windows and patio doors. Norcold and Stolle Products Divisions manufacture recreational vehicle refrigerators, auto parts and appliance control panels. A subsidiary, Alcoa Electronic Packaging, Inc. (AEP), produces ceramic packages used to hold integrated circuits for electronic equipment. During 1994 AEP increased ship- ments of several parts to a 13 key customer and added two additional customers. AEP currently is working with several potential customers to broaden its market base in 1995. Production capacity is being increased to respond to these opportunities. Alcoa Composites, Inc., a subsidiary, principally designs and manufactures composite parts and structures for aerospace and transportation applications. Facilities to recover gold from AofA's mining leases in Western Australia were constructed, and mined gold first poured, in 1988. Production has been declining since 1990, and the gold deposit is expected to be depleted by 1997. Magnesium is produced by Northwest Alloys, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary in Addy, Washington (NWA), from minerals in the area owned by NWA. Alcoa uses magnesium for certain aluminum alloys. Recycling is also a source of aluminum-magnesium alloys. Responding to world magnesium market conditions NWA increased magnesium production during 1994. Third party sales of magnesium are continuing. Titanium and steel forgings are produced at Cleveland, Ohio and Bologne, France and are sold principally in aero- space markets. Aluminio produces copper electrical cables at its Pocos de Caldas and Guarulhos, Brazil plants. It also owns and operates a chain of retail construction materials outlets in Brazil. Alcoa's wholly owned subsidiaries own and develop luxury residential/resort communities in South Carolina and Florida; the remaining properties are being actively marketed. Research and Development The Company, a technological leader in the aluminum industry, engages in research and development (R&D) programs which include basic and applied research and process and product development. The research activities are princi- pally conducted at Alcoa Technical Center (ATC), near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Several subsidiaries and divisions conduct their own R&D programs, as do many plants. Expendi- tures for such activities were $126 million in 1994, $130 million in 1993 and $212 million in 1992. Most of the decrease in R&D expenditures since 1992 is related to program reductions at ATC. Substantially all R&D activities are funded by the Company and its various units. The Company's strategy has been to focus its R&D expenditures on specific programs related to existing businesses, which will lead to lower R&D expenditures in 1995. Environmental Alcoa's Environmental Policy confirms its commitment to operate worldwide in a manner which protects the environment and the health of employees and of the citizens of the communities where the Company has an impact. The Company engages in a continuing effort to develop and implement modern technology and policies to meet environ- mental objectives. Approximately $45 million was spent during 1994 for new or expanded facilities for environmental control. Capital expenditures for such facilities will approximate $60 million in 1995. The costs of operating these facilities are not included in these figures. Remediation expenses being incurred by the Company are increasing at many of its facilities and at certain sites involved in proceedings under the Comprehensive Environ- mental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA or Superfund) and other sites. See Environmental Matters on page 23 in the Annual Report to Shareholders, and Item 3 - "Legal Proceedings" below. 14 Alcoa's operations, like those of others in manufacturing industries, have in recent years become subject to increasingly stringent legislation and regulations to protect human health and the environment. This trend is expected to continue. Compliance with new laws, regulations or policies could require substantial expenditures by the Company in addition to those referenced above. Environmental requirements also may affect the marketing of certain products manufactured by the Company. For example, legislation imposing deposits on beverage containers including aluminum cans has been passed in a number of states and is being considered elsewhere. Federal and state regulations, such as U.S. Food and Drug Adminis tration regulations and California Proposition 65, affect the manufacture of materials to be used in food and beverage containers. The Coalition of Northeastern Governors (CONEG) model law (as enacted by several states) governing the use or presence of certain materials has been passed in some states and may impact the manufacture of certain packages or packaging components for foods and beverages. A proposed directive similar to the CONEG legislation is under consideration by the Commission of the European Union. Environmental laws and regulations are important both to the Company and to the communities where it operates. The Company supports the use of sound scientific research and realistic risk criteria to analyze environmental and human health effects and to develop effective laws and regu lations in all countries where it operates. Alcoa recognizes that recycling and waste reduction offer real solutions to the solid waste problem and it continues vigorously to pursue efforts in these areas. Employees During 1994 the Company employed an average of approximately 61,700 people worldwide. Three-year labor agreements ratified in 1993 cover the majority of the Company's U.S. production workers. Wages for employees in Australia are covered by agreements which are negotiated under guidelines established by a national industrial relations authority. Wages for both hourly and salaried employees in Brazil are negotiated annually in compliance with government guidelines. Each Aluminio location, however, has established a separate compensation package for its employees which includes real wage increases and certain employee welfare plans. Item 2. Properties. See "Item 1 - Business." Alcoa believes that its facilities, substantially all of which are owned, are suitable and adequate for its operations. Item 3. Legal Proceedings. In the ordinary course of its business, Alcoa is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims, both actual and potential, including some which it has asserted against others. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot now be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. It is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. Management believes, however, that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company. Environmental Matters Alcoa is involved in proceedings under the Superfund or analogous state provisions regarding the usage, disposal, storage or treatment of hazardous substances at a number of sites in the U.S. 15 The Company has committed to participate, or is engaged in negotiations with Federal or state authorities relative to its alleged liability for participation, in clean-up efforts at several such sites. In response to a unilateral order issued under Section 106 of CERCLA by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region II regarding releases of hazardous substances, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) into the Grasse River near its Massena, New York facility, Alcoa proposed during 1993 to EPA that it engage in certain remedial activities in the Grasse River for the removal and appropriate disposal of certain river sediments. The remedial activities proposed for implementation in 1994 did not occur because of delays in securing necessary governmental approvals for the work plan for conduct of the work and disposal of the removed sediments. The Company continues to pursue this action and anticipates that the necessary approvals will occur to permit the sediment removal activity during 1995. Representatives of various Federal and state agencies and a Native American tribe, acting in their capacities as trustees for natural resources, have asserted that Alcoa may be liable for loss or damage to such resources under Federal and state law based on Alcoa's operations at its Massena, New York facility. While formal proceedings have not been instituted, the Company is actively investigating these claims. In March 1994 the EPA included the "Alcoa (Point Comfort)/Lavaca Bay" site on the National Priorities List (NPL). The site includes portions of Alcoa's Point Comfort, Texas bauxite refining operations and portions of Lavaca Bay, Texas, adjacent to the plant. On March 31, 1994, Alcoa and Region VI of the EPA entered into an administrative order on consent, EPA Docket No. 6-11-94, concerning the Alcoa (Point Comfort)/Lavaca Bay site. The administrative order requires the Company to conduct a remedial investiga tion and feasibility study at the site overseen by the EPA. Work under the administrative order is proceeding. Certain federal and state natural resource trustees previously served Alcoa with notice of their intent to file suit to recover damages for alleged loss, injury or destruction of natural resources in Lavaca Bay and to recover the costs for performing the assessment of such alleged damages. The Stolle Corporation (Stolle), a subsidiary, had advised the Ohio EPA of certain hazardous waste management practices that may not have met applicable regulatory requirements and that Stolle had been contacted by the Ohio Attorney General's Office concerning the matter. In February 1995, this matter was settled and Stolle agreed to pay a fine of $138,000 and administrative costs to the State of Ohio. Stolle also agreed to institute a Pollution Prevention program pursuant to Ohio EPA guidelines. Other Matters Alcoa was named as one of several defendants in a number of lawsuits filed as a result of the Sioux City, Iowa DC-10 plane crash in 1989. The plaintiffs claim that Alcoa fabricated the titanium fan disk involved in the alleged engine failure of the plane from a titanium forging supplied by a third party. Twenty-two of the 117 cases are still pending; the other 95 have been settled without participation by Alcoa. While Alcoa is covered by the releases given by the plaintiffs in the settled cases, Alcoa remains subject to claims for contribution from the defendants who have actually paid the settlements. In some of the cases, punitive damages of $5 million are sought from each defendant. Alcoa and a subsidiary were notified in September 1991 by the Department of Justice (DOJ) of its investigation regarding criminal violations of antitrust laws in the small press, hard alloy extrusion industry. On March 5, 1993, Alcoa and the subsidiary received an antitrust grand jury investigation subpoena requiring production of documents relating to pricing of small press, hard alloy extrusions. Alcoa and its subsidiary have provided the documentation requested. The investigation is continuing. In October 1992 Alcoa Composites, Inc. was served with a subpoena requiring the production of certain documentary material to the U.S. government in connection with an investigation to determine 16 whether criminal violations of federal defense procurement laws or regulations occurred with respect to the subsidiary's subcontract to manufacture helicopter blades for the U.S. Army. The government has closed the criminal investigation in this matter but continues to evaluate possible adminis- trative adjustment to the subcontract price. In December 1992 Alcoa initiated a lawsuit against nearly one hundred different insurance carriers that provided Alcoa with insurance coverage for various periods between the years 1956 and 1985. The suit asks the court to declare that these insurance companies are required, under the terms of the policies issued, to reimburse monies spent by Alcoa in the past or future for environmental liabilities that have arisen in recent years. On December 21, 1992, Alcoa was named as a defendant in KML Leasing v. Rockwell Standard Corporation filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oklahoma on behalf of 7,317 Aero Commander, Rockwell Commander and Gulfstream Commander aircraft owners. The complaint alleges defects in certain wingspars manufactured by Alcoa. Alcoa's aircraft builders products liability insurance carrier has assumed defense of the matter. In May 1993, Alcoa received a reservation of rights letter from its insurance carrier which purports to reserve its rights with respect to a majority of the types of damages claimed. Alcoa continues to challenge the reservation. In December 1993 Alcoa was served with a subpoena from the Antitrust Division of the DOJ to produce documents to a Federal grand jury sitting in Philadelphia. The grand jury investigated pricing practices in the used beverage container and aluminum scrap markets. The matter was terminated in September 1994. Alcoa and Alcoa Specialty Chemicals, Inc., a subsidiary, are defendants in a case filed by Aluminum Chemicals, Inc., et al., in the District Court of Harris County, Texas. Plaintiffs allege claims for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, interference with contractual and business relations, breach of contract, conversion, misappropriation of trade secrets, deceptive trade practices and civil conspiracy in connection with a former partnership, Alcoa-Coastal Chemicals. The plaintiffs are seeking lost profits and other compensatory damages in excess of $100 million, and punitive damages. As part of an ongoing investigation, Alcoa Fujikura Ltd. (AFL), a subsidiary, received formal notice in March 1994 that the United States Customs Service (USCS) was contemplating issuance of a claim for monetary penalties and marking duties against AFL for allegedly fraudulent importations from Mexico of automotive wiring harnesses into the United States from July 1986 through December 1991. AFL cooperated with the USCS in an audit of the customs duties AFL paid on automotive wiring harness imports from Mexico in the 1986-1993 period. On February 2, 1995, this matter was settled and the investigation and audit were terminated. In December 1993 the European Union Competition Office and German Cartel Office began an investigation of the competitive practices of Alcoa Chemie, GmbH, a subsidiary, in the tabular alumina business in Germany. The subsidiary cooperated with the investigation and is awaiting response from the authorities. In August 1994 the DOJ issued a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) to Alcoa regarding activities undertaken by Alcoa in response to a multinational Memorandum of Under- standing negotiated by the U.S. government and other sovereign nations. Alcoa complied with the request in November 1994. 17 Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. No matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's security holders during the fourth quarter of 1994. Item 4A. Executive Officers of the Registrant.

Purpose The purpose of this Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the "Plan") of Aluminum Company of America (the "Company") is to increase the ownership interest in the Company of non-employee Directors whose services are con- sidered essential to the Company's continued growth and progress and to provide a further incentive to serve as a Director of the Company. The Plan is a continuation of the Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors which originally became effective November 17, 1989. 2. Administration The Plan shall be administered by a Committee consisting of Directors who are employees of the Company and thus not eligible to participate in the Plan (presently, the Inside Director Committee). Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have authority to adopt rules and regu- lations for carrying out the Plan and to interpret, construe and administer its provisions. The decisions of the Com- mittee shall be final and binding upon all parties. 3. Eligibility Directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. Any Director who is a director or chairman of the board of directors of a subsi- 1 diary or affiliate of the Company shall not, by virtue thereof, be deemed to be an employee of the Company or such subsidiary or affiliate for purposes of such eligibility. 4. Awards of Restricted Shares On the date of the Company's annual shareholders meeting in each year, each eligible Director elected at such meeting or whose term of office continues beyond the time of such meeting shall be granted 500 Restricted Shares. "Restricted Shares" means shares of the Company's common stock, par value $1.00 ("Company Stock"), which are subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5 of this Plan. Only shares of Company Stock which previously have been issued and reacquired by the Company ("treasury shares") shall be utilized for awards of Restricted Shares under this Plan. 5. Terms and Conditions of Restrictions (a) Shares issued to a non-employee Director as an award of Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) None of the Restricted Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered during the Restriction Period; and (ii) All Restricted Shares shall be forfeited and shall be returned to the Company and all rights of the non- employee Director to such Restricted Shares shall termi- nate without any payment of consideration by the Company if a non-employee Director's service with the Board terminates prior to the end of the Restriction Period. 2 Each eligible non-employee Director, as a condition to receipt of the first award of Restricted Shares, shall execute and deliver to the Company a stock power in blank with respect to all Restricted Shares that may be awarded to such Director in the future. Such stock power shall be held in custody by the secretary of the Company and shall be used only to effect a transfer of Restricted Shares to the Company in connection with a forfeiture of Restricted Shares by such Director. (b) During the Restriction Period, except following a forfeiture as set forth in paragraph (a)(ii) above, the non- employee Director shall beneficially own the Restricted Shares and shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of Company Stock (other than the right to transfer, sell, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber the shares), including but not limited to the right to receive all cash dividends paid on such Restricted Shares and the right to vote such Restricted Shares. All shares of Company Stock or other securities paid on Restricted Shares (whether as a dividend or other distribution) shall be held in accordance with Section 6 of this Plan and shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Shares to which they relate. 6. Uncertificated Shares; Legended Certificates (a) All Restricted Shares shall be and remain uncerti- ficated during the Restriction Period. Restricted Shares shall be held in accounts established by the Company for each non-employee Director with First Chicago Trust Company of New York or such other financial institution which may act as Transfer Agent for Company Stock from time to time (in such capacity, the "Agent"). The Company shall cause 3 the Agent to issue one or more certificates for shares held in a non-employee Director's account promptly after expira- tion of the Restriction Period. In the event of a for- feiture of Restricted Shares, all Restricted Shares standing in the account of such Director shall be delivered and shall belong to the Company. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any certificate for Restricted Shares is delivered to a non- employee Director prior to the expiration of the Restriction Period, the Company shall cause the following legend to be set forth thereon: "The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby is subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions (including forfeiture and restrictions on transfer, sale or pledge) contained in the Aluminum Company of America Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors. A copy of that Plan is on file in the office of the secretary of Aluminum Company of America, 425 Sixth Avenue, Alcoa Building, Pitts- burgh, Pennsylvania 15219-1850." Such legend shall not be removed from any such stock certi- ficate until the expiration of the Restriction Period. (c) "Restriction Period" means, with respect to an award of Restricted Shares, the period from the date of such award to the date the restrictions on the Restricted Shares so awarded lapse as provided in Section 7 (a) of this Plan. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Restriction Period for an award of Restricted Shares shall not lapse for any reason until at least six months following such award date. 7. Lapse of Restrictions; Expiration of Restriction Period (a) The restrictions set forth in Section 5 shall lapse 4 with respect to any award of Restricted Shares and the Restriction Period shall terminate with respect thereto upon the occurrence of the earliest of the following events: (i) the death of the Director; (ii) the disability of the Director requiring discon- tinuance of service on the Board; (iii) termination of Board service in order to enter government service; (iv) resignation of the Director from the Board after furnishing an opinion of counsel reasonably satis- factory to a majority of the Board (other than the affected Director) to the effect that continued membership on the Board will result in the Director having a conflict of interest or suffering some other significant legal liability; (v) a determination by a majority of the Board (other than the affected Director) that such Director has an Immediate and Severe Financial Hardship which cannot be met through any other means, limited to the number of Restricted Shares necessary to meet that hardship; (vi) the failure of the Director to be re-elected after being duly nominated; (vii) the failure of the Director to be nominated for Board service other than due to the Director's refusal or failure to stand for such renomination; or 5 (viii) termination of Board service after having reached retirement age under the Board's then current tenure policy for directors. (b) "Immediate and Severe Financial Hardship" shall mean an immediate and severe financial hardship resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of a Director or such Director's spouse or dependents, or from a loss of such Director's property due to casualty or other similar extraordinary and unforseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of such Director. 8. Regulatory Limitations The Company reserves the right to take such actions with respect to this Plan and to any Restricted Shares awarded hereunder which in its judgment are necessary or desirable to assure compliance with applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules. 9. Adjustment upon Changes in Company Stock In the event there shall be any change in Company Stock through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitaliza- tion, stock dividend, stock split, exchange of stock or other change in the corporate structure or shares of the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and kind of shares or other securities or property subject to subse- quent awards hereunder to reflect such changes. 10. Amendment and Termination of Plan The Board of Directors may from time to time amend, modify, suspend or terminate this Plan, provided however that the provisions of the Plan regarding eligibility, timing of awards and the number of shares included in any award may not be amended or revised more than once every six months other than to comport with changes in the Internal Revenue 6 Code of 1986, as amended, or the rules and regulations thereunder. 11. Withholding Taxes The Company shall have the right to require, prior to the delivery or release of any share certificate, payment of any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to the shares. A Director may satisfy his or her obligation to pay any United States' Federal, state or local withholding taxes by having the Company withhold from the shares of Company Stock to be so delivered or released or by directing the Agent to pay over to the Company from the account of such Director with such Agent that number of shares whose Fair Market Value on the date taxes are determined equals the withholding amount to be paid. "Fair Market Value" is the mean between the high and low trading prices. 12. Miscellaneous This Plan shall not be construed as conferring any rights upon any Director to continue as a Director for any period of time, or at any particular rate of compensation. Restricted Shares awarded hereunder shall constitute com- pensation for services as a Director.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS EARNINGS SUMMARY Earnings for the year, before unusual items, were $193 compared with $79 in 1993. Total revenues of $9,904 were $848 higher than those for the previous year. Most of the revenue increase was from a higher-value aluminum product mix and higher shipments of nonaluminum products, partially offset by lower prices for a number of products. Gross margin (sales and operating revenues less cost of goods sold) was up $190 from 1993. The increase was helped by the higher revenues and improved cost performance. Margin was unfavorably affected by higher purchased metal and other raw material costs. The following table summarizes Alcoa's results adjusted for unusual items described later in this discussion.
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net income (loss) $ 375.2 $ 4.8 $ (1,139.2) Significant unusual items: Gain from Alcoa/ WMC transaction (300.2) - - Special charges, net 50.0 74.5 173.9 Extraordinary loss 67.9 - 50.2 Accounting changes, net - - 1,111.4 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Adjusted net income $ 192.9 $ 79.3 $ 196.3 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The year-to-year comparisons in the discussion that follows on geographic and segment information also exclude the unusual items. GEOGRAPHIC AND SEGMENT INFORMATION Operating profit in 1994 was $513 compared with $351 in 1993 and $533 in 1992. Operating profit, for geographic and segment purposes, consists of sales and operating revenues less operating expenses--except interest expense, nonoperating income, income taxes and minority interests. See Note P to the financial statements for additional geographic and segment information. OPERATIONS BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA USA--Revenues of $5,574 were up 6% from 1993 after a decline of 7% in 1993 from 1992. Most of the recovery in revenues was due to higher fabricated products shipments. Prices for these products continued to be weak. Revenues were also negatively affected by lower shipments of aluminum ingot due to the idling of 410,000 metric tons (mt) of U.S. smelting capacity that began in 1993. Although the average ingot price rose 13% from 1993, lower ingot shipments more than offset that benefit and ingot revenues fell 23%. U.S. operations had an operating loss in 1994 of $65 compared with a loss of $193 in 1993 and a profit of $55 in 1992. The improvement from 1993 is principally reflected in building products, forged products and commercial rolled products. PACIFIC--Revenues of $1,670 in 1994 were down 5% from 1993. The Pacific area principally reflects the activities of Alcoa of Australia (AofA). The decline in revenues was mainly due to a 10% drop in prices for alumina, and lower shipments of aluminum ingot resulting from production cutbacks at AofA smelters. Operating profit in 1994 was $291 compared with $399 in 1993 and $298 in 1992. The lower profit reflects the effects of the decline in alumina prices. OTHER AMERICAS--Revenues of $1,362 in 1994 jumped 44% from 1993. Alcoa Aluminio (Aluminio) in Brazil benefited from higher shipments and prices in virtually all of its product lines. Shipments and prices of closures, particularly in the Mexican operations, also improved. With these benefits plus improved performance, operating profit reached $239 in 1994 compared with $139 in 1993 and $91 in 1992. 18 EUROPE--Revenues of $1,298 in 1994 improved by 21% over those in 1993. Operating profit in 1994 reached $48 compared with $6 in 1993 and $90 in 1992. The most significant improvements in both revenues and profits came from Alcoa's operations in Hungary and in the Netherlands. Alcoa-Kofem, located in Hungary, benefited from higher fabricated products sales and significantly greater plant utilization. OPERATIONS BY SEGMENT Alcoa's integrated operations consist of three segments: Alumina and Chemicals, Aluminum Processing, and Non-Aluminum Products. I. ALUMINA AND CHEMICALS SEGMENT
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenues $ 1,508 $ 1,437 $ 1,422 Operating profit 277 373 278 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Approximately two-thirds of the revenues from this segment are from sales of alumina. An oversupply of alumina that began in 1992 continued into 1994. With this overhang and smelter cutbacks worldwide, prices for alumina fell 16% in 1992, dropped slightly in 1993, and declined 12% in 1994. Alumina shipments rose 12% from 1993, following an 8% increase from 1992 to 1993. Part of the increase was due to full utilization of AofA's Wagerup refinery expansion. Revenues, on the other hand, were flat, as the additional volume just about offset lower prices. Revenues in 1993 were up 8% from 1992 because of higher volume. Revenues from alumina-based chemical products were 13% higher than in 1993. Higher volumes in the U.S. and Brazilian markets more than offset continued pressure on prices in the European market. Revenues in 1993 fell 10% from 1992 due primarily to lower demand and prices in the U.S. and Europe. Operating profit of $277 for this segment was down $96 from 1993. The chemicals businesses showed about an 8% improvement. However, the alumina businesses were unfavorably affected by lower prices that more than offset lower unit production costs. II. ALUMINUM PROCESSING SEGMENT
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total aluminum shipments (000 mt) 2,551 2,580 2,797 Revenues $ 6,477 $ 5,974 $ 6,517 Operating profit (loss) 145 (21) 289 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total aluminum shipments in 1994 were down slightly from 1993 after falling 8% from 1992 to 1993. The declines were mostly from aluminum ingot, which reflects the shutdown of 24% of the company's smelting capacity. Total revenues from this segment rose 8% from 1993 on higher sales of engineered and flat-rolled products. This segment had an operating profit of $145 in 1994 after sustaining a loss of $21 in 1993. Factors contributing to the improvement include a higher-value product mix, cost reductions--including lower smelting costs--and the higher revenues. These were partially offset by lower prices for rigid container sheet (RCS) for beverage cans and higher cost of purchased metal. The loss in 1993 was mainly in packaging and aerospace markets, and from aluminum ingot operations. This segment's shipments and revenues are made up of the following product classes:
PRODUCT CLASSES 1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shipments (000 metric tons) Flat-rolled products 1,381 1,271 1,323 Engineered products 433 379 353 Aluminum ingot 655 841 1,023 Other aluminum products 82 89 98 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total shipments 2,551 2,580 2,797 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenues Flat-rolled products $ 3,201 $ 2,974 $ 3,189 Engineered products 1,882 1,528 1,527 Aluminum ingot 920 1,042 1,336 Other aluminum products 473 430 465 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total revenues $ 6,476 $ 5,974 $ 6,517 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 FLAT-ROLLED PRODUCTS--A significant portion of the shipments and revenues in this product class comes from the sale of RCS. In 1993, Alcoa experienced severe competition for RCS market share. As a result, RCS prices fell 9% from their 1992 level and declined 2% in 1994. Higher demand for RCS in 1994 resulted in a 2% increase in shipments from the year earlier. Revenues, however, stayed about even. Sheet and plate shipments, serving the aerospace and commer- cial products markets, were up 31% over 1993 despite continuing weakness in the aerospace sector. In both 1994 and 1993, shipments to aerospace customers were down but were more than offset by higher commercial products sales. Revenues for sheet and plate were up 21% from 1993, due mostly to the higher volume of commercial products. ENGINEERED PRODUCTS--The products in this class include extru- sions used principally in the transportation and construction markets, forgings and wheels, wire, rod and bar, and automobile bumpers. Total shipments of engineered products were up 14% from 1993 and revenues rose 23%. This compares with a 7% rise in shipments in 1993 from 1992 while revenues were about the same. Shipments of extrusions were 17% higher than in 1993 and revenues rose 22%. Approximately one-half of 1994 revenues for this product came from Europe and Brazil. In 1993, shipments of extrusions were down 12% from 1992 while revenues fell 19%, reflecting the weak aerospace market and declining prices. Shipments of forged wheels for the transportation market climbed 39% in 1994 with a similar increase in revenues. These dramatic increases followed a 27% increase in shipments from 1992 to 1993 and a 31% increase in revenues. Shipments of aluminum products for the U.S. building and construction market rose 27% in 1994; revenues were up 24%. ALUMINUM INGOT--Alcoa's smelters operated at approximately 80% of worldwide rated capacity during 1994 as 450,000 mt of capacity was idled due to the oversupply of aluminum ingot on world markets during the last several years. As a result, ingot shipments in 1994 were 22% lower than in 1993. Shipments in 1993 fell 18% from 1992. The average U.S. market price for ingot, which was 58 cents per pound in 1992, fell to 53 cents in 1993. As world inventories declined during 1994, ingot prices began to recover and the average U.S. price rose to 71 cents per pound. The price in early 1995 has further risen to the high 80 cent range. Alcoa's average realized price for ingot in 1994 was 64 cents compared with 56 cents in 1993. Ingot revenues in 1994 were down 12% from 1993 after falling 22% in 1993 from 1992. Partially offsetting lower volumes and prices in the U.S. and Australia during 1994 were higher ingot shipments and prices at Aluminio. OTHER ALUMINUM PRODUCTS--Shipments of these products, which are principally scrap and aluminum closures, were down 8% from 1993, mostly due to lower scrap sales. Revenues, however, rose 10% on the strength of higher prices for scrap. In 1993, shipments of other aluminum products were down 9% from 1992 while revenues declined 8%. III. NON-ALUMINUM PRODUCTS SEGMENT
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Revenues $ 1,919 $ 1,646 $ 1,553 Operating profit (loss) 91 5 (31) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues from this segment were up 17% in 1994 following a 6% increase in 1993. Operating profit of $91 rose $86 from 1993. Revenues from packaging, retail and copper conductor products for Aluminio were up 66%. Alcoa Fujikura benefited from strong automobile sales in 1994; its revenues rose 17%, principally from automobile wire harness sales. Alcoa Electronic Packaging increased its revenues by over 200% from 1993 with greater plant utilization and higher demand for electronic components. Plastic closures revenues in Latin American markets jumped 27%. Alcoa is a leading supplier worldwide of both plastic and aluminum closures. Nonaluminum building products revenues rose 14%. GAIN FROM ALCOA/WMC Transaction In December 1994, Alcoa recorded a gain of $400.2 ($300.2 after- tax) from the acquisition by Western Mining Corporation Holdings Limited (WMC), located in Melbourne, Australia, of a 40% interest in Alcoa's worldwide bauxite, alumina and inorganic chemicals businesses. As part of the agreement, Alcoa acquired an additional 9% interest in AofA, bringing its total interest in that company to 60%. An additional cash payment may be made by WMC in the year 2000 if certain financial performance targets of the alumina chemicals businesses are met. See Note C for additional information about this transaction. SPECIAL ITEMS Included in income from operations in 1994 is a charge of $79.7 ($50.0 after-tax) from closing a forgings and extrusion plant in Vernon, California. The charge included $32.8 for asset write-offs and $46.9 related primarily to severance costs. Special charges of $150.8 in 1993 ($98.0 after-tax) included $134.1 for severance costs associated with permanent reductions of hourly paid and salaried employees, mainly in the company's U.S. aluminum operations. The remaining $16.7 was associated with closing certain businesses at several plants, including the manufacture of aluminum rod at Rockdale, Texas. There was also a credit of $35.4 related to tax rate reductions, partially offset by an $11.9 charge for new three-year labor agreements. The 1992 special charges of $251.6 ($173.9 after-tax) consisted of $95.7 for redundancies and $155.9 for asset dispo- sitions. The dispositions included the shutdown of a facility in South Bend, Indiana and impairment of Alcoa Composites, Inc. 20 EXTRAORDINARY LOSSES The extraordinary losses in 1994 and 1992 of $67.9 and $50.2, respectively, were from the early retirements of 7% discount debentures that carried effective interest rates through maturities in 2011 and 1996 of 14.7%. The losses were the unamortized portions of the original discounts that would have been paid at the time the debt matured. COSTS AND OTHER INCOME COST OF GOODS SOLD--Cost of goods sold in 1994 rose $659, or 9% from 1993. The major contributors were: - -A higher-cost product mix $350 - -Higher volume 265 - -Higher prices for purchased metal and other raw materials 215 These were partially offset by: - -Operating performance and efficiencies 160 Cost of goods sold in 1993 was $152 lower than in 1992 principally because of lower volume--$275; operating perfor- mance--$110; and lower purchased metal costs--$57. These were partially offset by costs associated with new subsidiaries of $181 and inventory profits in 1992 of $76. SELLING AND GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES--These expenses rose 5% during 1994 and primarily reflect higher commissions and compensation costs. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of sales was 6.4% in 1994, 6.7% in 1993 and 6.2% in 1992. INTEREST EXPENSE--Interest expense was up $19 from 1993 primarily because of higher borrowings by Aluminio, higher short-term interest rates and higher average commercial paper outstanding during most of the year. These were partially offset by the favorable effects of early redemption in 1994 of high-cost debentures. At the end of 1994, there were no U.S. commercial paper borrowings outstanding. Comparing 1993 with 1992, an $18 decline in interest costs reflects lower rates and the payment in 1992 of high-cost discount debentures. INCOME TAXES--Taxes on income in 1994 were $219, for an effective tax rate for the year of 26.7%. The difference between this rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 35% is mostly due to a portion of the gain on the Alcoa/WMC transaction being nontaxable. The provision for income taxes in 1993 resulted in a tax benefit of $10 compared with a tax cost of $132 in 1992. Besides the effect of a lower level of pretax income in 1993, the difference included the effects of a change in Australia's tax rate from 39% to 33% in 1993. This resulted in a $65 reduction to AofA's taxes. In addition, the U.S. tax rate increased from 34% to 35% in 1993. Although the rate increased, Alcoa benefited by a one-time credit of $10 because of its net deferred tax assets in the U.S. OTHER INCOME/FOREIGN CURRENCY--Included in other income are translation and exchange gains (losses) of $(10.3) in 1994, $14.6 in 1993 and $(25.5) in 1992. In 1994 there were unfavorable variances at operations in Germany and Australia; and in Mexico, the peso was devalued in December. The favorable change in 1993 from 1992 was mainly at AofA where the exchange rate moved from 78 cents to 68 cents, and at Suralco, which was affected by a significant devaluation of the Suriname guilder late in 1993. At the time of the devaluation, Suralco was in a net monetary liability position. The effect on net income from translation and exchange gains (losses), after taxes and minority interests, was $(9.6) in 1994, $9.0 in 1993 and $(11.1) in 1992. 21 RISK FACTORS In addition to the risks inherent in Alcoa's worldwide business and operations, the company is exposed generally to market, financial, political, and economic risks. COMMODITY RISKS--Alcoa is a leading global producer of aluminum ingot and aluminum fabricated products. Aluminum ingot is an internationally priced, sourced and traded commodity. The principal trading market for ingot is the London Metal Exchange (LME). Alcoa participates in this market by buying and selling forward portions of its aluminum requirements and output. In 1993, when world metal prices reached an all-time low, Alcoa temporarily idled 310,000 mt of its primary aluminum production. Further reductions in early 1994 brought Alcoa's total worldwide idled capacity to 450,000 mt. For purposes of risk assessment, Alcoa divides its operations into four regions: U.S., Pacific, Other Americas and Europe. The Pacific, principally Australia, and the Other Americas, principally Brazil, are in net long metal positions, and from time to time, may sell production forward. Europe has no smelting operations controlled by Alcoa, and accordingly, is net short and may purchase forward positions from time to time. At the present time, forward purchases activity within the latter three regions is not material. In 1994 the company had entered into longer-term contracts with a variety of customers in the U.S. for the supply of approximately 1,500,000 mt of aluminum products over the next several years. As a hedge against the economic risk of higher prices for metal needs associated with these contracts, Alcoa entered into long positions using principally futures and option contracts. At December 31, 1994, these contracts totaled approximately 1,400,000 mt. The contracts limit the unfavorable effect of price increases on metal purchases and likewise limit the favorable effect from price declines. The futures and option contracts are with creditworthy counterparties and are further supported by cash, treasury bills or irrevocable letters of credit issued by carefully chosen banks, as appropriate. For financial accounting purposes, the gains and losses on the hedging contracts are reflected in earnings concurrent with the hedged costs. The cash flows from these contracts are classified in a manner consistent with the underlying nature of the transactions. The volatility of aluminum market prices can produce signifi- cant fluctuations in the periodic mark-to-market measurement of the futures and option contracts. Focusing only on that valuation is meaningless because the effect of price changes on future hedged metal purchases will approximately equal and offset the mark-to-market valuation of the contract position. Alcoa intends to close out the hedging contracts at the time it purchases the metal from third parties, thus creating the right economic match both in time and price. The deferred gains on the hedging contracts at December 31, 1994 are expected to offset the increase in the price of the purchased metal. The expiration dates of the call options and the delivery dates of the futures contracts do not always coincide exactly with the dates on which Alcoa is required to purchase metal in order to perform under its customer agreements. Accordingly, the company anticipates rolling forward some of its futures and option positions. This may result in signifi- cant cash inflows if the hedging contracts are "in-the-money" at the time they are rolled forward. Conversely, there could be significant cash outflows if metal prices fall below the price of contracts being rolled forward. In late 1994 Alcoa implemented a program to protect the unrealized gains that result from the increase in metal prices. Approximately 10% of its hedge position was protected at the end of 1994 through the purchase of options from highly rated financial institutions. The maximum risk on the option contracts is the premiums paid. In addition, Alcoa had 14,000 mt of LME contracts outstanding at year-end 1994 that cover fixed-price commitments to supply customers with metal from internal sources. Accounting convention requires that these contracts be marked-to-market. Alcoa purchases other commodities, such as natural gas and copper, for its operations and enters into contracts to eliminate volatility in the prices of such products. None of these contracts are material. FINANCIAL RISK--Alcoa is subject to exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies. As a matter of policy, Alcoa enters into foreign currency exchange contracts, including forwards and options, to manage its transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. To keep financing costs as low as possible, Alcoa uses interest rate swaps to maintain a balance between fixed and floating rate debt. 22 RISK MANAGEMENT--All of the aluminum and other commodity contracts, as well as the various types of financial instru- ments, are straightforward. They are primarily entered into for the purpose of removing uncertainty and volatility, and principally cover underlying exposures. Alcoa's commodity and derivative activities are subject to the management, direction and control of its Strategic Risk Management Committee. The committee is composed of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and other officers and employees that the Chief Executive Officer may select from time to time. The committee reports to the Board of Directors at each meeting on the scope of Alcoa's activities and programs. In 1994 Alcoa tested its policies regarding its derivatives and commodities trading activities against the recommendations of the "Group of 30." A clarified policy was approved by the Board. The "Group of 30" was a global derivatives study group formed to help dealers and users better manage risks and issues associated with derivative activities. It was composed of worldwide industry representatives, bankers, central bankers and academics whose recommendations included issues related to the role of senior management (including the board of directors), authorization, control and disclosure of deriva- tives. For additional information on financial instruments, see Note R. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Alcoa participates in environmental assessments and cleanups at a number of locations, including operating facilities and adjoining property, at previously owned or operated facilities and at Superfund and other waste sites. Alcoa records a liability for environmental remediation costs or damages when a cleanup program becomes probable and the costs or damages can be reasonably estimated. See Note A for additional information. As assessments and cleanups proceed, the liability is adjusted based on progress in determining the extent of remedial actions and related costs and damages. The liability can change substan- tially due to factors such as the nature and extent of conta- mination, changes in remedial requirements and technological changes. For example, there are certain matters, including several related to alleged natural resource damage or alleged off-site contaminated sediments, where investigations are ongoing. It is not possible to determine the outcomes or to estimate with any degree of certainty the ranges of potential costs for these matters. Alcoa's remediation reserve balance at the end of 1994 was $329 and reflects the most probable costs to remediate identi- fied environmental conditions for which costs can be reasonably estimated. About 28% of this balance relates to Alcoa's Massena, New York plant site. Remediation costs charged to the reserve were $79 in 1994, $71 in 1993 and $102 in 1992. They include expenditures currently mandated as well as those not required by any regulatory authority or third parties. Included in annual operating expenses are the recurring costs of managing hazardous substances and pollution. Such costs are estimated to be about 2% of cost of goods sold in 1994 and 1 1/2% in 1993 and 1992. 23 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES CASH FROM OPERATIONS Cash from operations was $1,394 in 1994 compared with $535 in 1993. Among the factors that accounted for the increase in 1994 over 1993 was a higher level of operating income in 1994. Additionally, working capital provided cash in 1994 by reductions in inventories and other current assets and an increase in accounts payable. These were partially offset by higher accounts receivable. In 1993 just the opposite occurred. Cash outlays for the 1992-1994 special items related to severance costs consist of salary continuation payments for up to two years, and pension and medical costs to be paid over the lives of the employees. The latter represents about 45% of the total severance costs. FINANCING ACTIVITIES Financing activities resulted in a net cash outflow of $825 in 1994. In 1993 there was a cash inflow of $386. In 1994 the company paid off early its 7% discount debentures due 2011 that had a face value of $225 and an effective interest rate of 14.7%. The unamortized discount was $108 at the time of redemption. Proceeds from issuance in February 1994 of $250 of 5.75% notes due 2001 were used to redeem the 7% debentures. Alcoa's U.S. commercial paper borrowings, which had an outstanding balance at the end of 1993 of $337, were also liquidated in 1994. AofA also significantly reduced its outstanding commercial paper balance in 1994. Short-term debt was reduced by $105 in 1994 compared with an increase of $68 in 1993. Debt as a percent of invested capital was 15% at the end of 1994 compared with 22% and 15% at the end of 1993 and 1992, respectively. In July 1994, Alcoa entered into a one billion dollar, five- year revolving credit facility with a group of international banks, replacing the previous $750 facility. The new arrangement will be used to back the issuance of commercial paper. Dividends paid to shareholders were $144 in 1994 compared with $142 in 1993 and $139 in 1992. In November 1994, Alcoa's Board declared a two-for-one stock split distributable on February 25, 1995. The Board also approved two changes in the company's common stock dividend policy: an increase in the base quarterly dividend and a change in the payment schedule for the extra dividend above the base dividend. The base quarterly dividend was increased from 20 cents to 22.5 cents per common share. The extra dividend payment of 30% of Alcoa's annual earnings in excess of $3.00 per share will be paid in the following year in equal quarterly installments with the base quarterly dividend instead of in a single payment. Dividends paid to minority interests of $148 in 1994 included $86 paid by AofA and $19 paid by Aluminio. In 1993, such dividends totaled $159, including $126 and $18 paid by AofA and Aluminio, respectively. INVESTING ACTIVITIES Cash used for investing activities in 1994 amounted to $375 compared with $1,050 in 1993. In both years, the most signifi- cant outlay was for capital expenditures. Spending for capital projects in 1994 was $612, down $145 from 1993 and reflects continued focus on improving manufacturing processes with a minimum of capital spending. More than one-half of the expendi- tures were for sustaining activities. Capital expenditures for new and expanded facilities for environmental control in ongoing operations were $45 in 1994, $76 in 1993 and $75 in 1992. Cash inflows from investing activities in 1994 consisted mainly of liquidating short-term investments, primarily at AofA. AofA used the proceeds to pay down its commercial paper borrowings. Additionally, Alcoa received a partial payment from the Alcoa/WMC transaction of $68. Additional net proceeds of $367 related to this transaction were received in early January 1995. 24 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the Shareholders and Board of Directors Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa) We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Alcoa as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related state- ments of consolidated income, shareholders' equity and consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of Alcoa's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presen- tation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Alcoa at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Notes S and V to the consolidated financial statements, Alcoa changed its methods of accounting for income taxes and postretirement benefits other than pensions in 1992. /s/ Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

29 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (dollars in millions, except share amounts) A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial state- ments include the accounts of Alcoa and companies more than 50% owned. Also included are joint ventures in which Alcoa has an undivided interest. Investments in other entities are accounted for principally on an equity basis. Inventory Valuation. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market, with cost for a substantial portion of U.S. inventories determined under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. The cost of other inventories is principally determined under the average cost method. Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The book value of obsolete assets is charged to depreciation expense when they are scrapped. Profits or losses from the sale of assets are included in other income. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depletion is taken over the periods the estimated mineral reserves are extracted. Environmental Expenditures. Expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized, as appropriate. Expen- ditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to future revenues, are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The liability for remediation expenditures may include, as appro- priate, elements of costs such as site investigations, consul- tants' fees, feasibility studies, outside contractor expenses and monitoring expenses. Estimates are not discounted, nor are claims for recovery recognized. The estimates also include costs apportioned to other potentially responsible parties to the extent that Alcoa has reason to believe such parties will not fully pay their proportionate share. The liability is periodi- cally reviewed and adjusted to reflect current remediation progress, prospective estimate of required activity, and other factors that may be relevant, including changes in technology or regulations. Interest Costs. Interest related to construction of qualifying assets is capitalized as part of construction costs. Futures Contracts. Alcoa enters into forward and futures contracts to cover exposures for foreign exchange, interest rates and commodities that are primarily accounted for as hedges of its committed and, in some cases, anticipated revenues and costs. The gains and losses on these contracts are reflected in earnings concurrently with the hedged revenues or costs. The cash flows from these contracts are classified in a manner consistent with the underlying nature of the transactions. Intangibles. The excess of purchase price over net tangible assets of businesses acquired is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. It is Alcoa's policy to amortize intangibles on a straight-line basis over not more than forty years. The carrying value of intangibles is evaluated periodically in relation to the operating perfor- mance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying businesses. Adjustments are made if the sum of expected future net cash flows is less than book value. Foreign Currency. The local currency is the functional currency for Alcoa's significant operations outside the U.S., except in Brazil. Reclassification. Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements were reclassified to conform to 1994 presentations. B. COMMON STOCK SPLIT On November 11, 1994, the Board of Directors declared a two- for-one common stock split distributable on February 25, 1995 to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 3, 1995. In this report, all per share amounts and numbers of shares have been restated to reflect the stock split. In addition, an amount equal to the one dollar par value of the shares outstanding at December 31, 1994 has been transferred from additional capital to common stock. C. GAIN FROM ALCOA/WMC Transaction In December 1994, Alcoa recorded a gain of $400.2 ($300.2 after-tax) from the acquisition by Western Mining Corporation Holdings Limited (WMC), located in Melbourne, Australia, of a 40% interest in Alcoa's worldwide bauxite, alumina and inorganic chemicals businesses. As part of the agreement, Alcoa acquired an additional 9% interest in Alcoa of Australia, bringing its total interest in that company to 60%. An addi- tional cash payment may be made by WMC in the year 2000 if certain financial performance targets of the chemicals businesses are met. Alcoa has indemnified WMC for certain preformation environmental and other liabilities. The significant effects of the transaction on the year-end balance sheet were increases of $68 in cash, $367 in net receivables and $202 in goodwill; offset by an increase in minority interests of $230. The net receivable was collected in early January 1995. If this transaction had occurred at the beginning of 1994, net income for the year would not have been materially different. D. SPECIAL AND EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS Special items in 1994 consisted of a charge of $79.7 ($50.0 after-tax) from closing a forgings and extrusion plant in Vernon, California. The charge included $32.8 for asset write- offs and $46.9 primarily related to severance costs. Special items of $150.8 in 1993 ($98.0 after-tax and minority interests) included $134.1 for severance costs associated with permanent reductions of hourly paid and salaried employees, 30 mainly in the company's U.S. aluminum operations. The remaining $16.7 was associated with closing certain businesses at several plants, including the manufacture of aluminum rod at the Rockdale, Texas plant. Special items in 1992 totaling $251.6 ($173.9 after-tax and minority interests) consisted of $95.7 for redundancies and $155.9 for asset dispositions. The dispositions included the shutdown of a facility in South Bend, Ind. and impairment of Alcoa Composites, Inc. The extraordinary losses in 1994 and 1992 were from early redemption of 7% debentures due 2011 and 1996, respectively, that carried effective interest rates of 14.7%. E. INVENTORIES

If valued on an average cost basis, total inventories would have been $691.9 and $623.9 higher at the end of 1994 and 1993, respectively. During 1992 certain LIFO inventory quantities were reduced and flowed through cost of goods sold at prior years' lower costs rather than at current costs. The effect of this reduction increased pretax income from operations by $49.9. F. PROPERTIES, PLANTS AND EQUIPMENT, AT COST

MINORITY INTERESTS The following table summarizes the minority shareholders' interests in the equity of consolidated subsidiaries.
December 31 1994 1993 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alcoa of Australia $ 588.1 $ 616.1 Alcoa International Holdings Company (AIHC) 200.0 250.0 Alcoa Aluminio 340.7 164.9 Alcoa Brazil Holdings Company (ABHC) - 102.1 Alcoa Alumina and Chemicals 327.9 - Other majority-owned companies 231.1 256.1 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 1,687.8 $ 1,389.2 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AIHC's minority interests consist of three series of preferred stock with a weighted average annual dividend rate of 4.2% for 1994, 5.1% for 1993 and 6.7% for 1992. During 1994, the minority shareholder of ABHC exchanged its interest in ABHC for common shares of Alcoa Aluminio. Addi- tionally, Alcoa Aluminio's minority shareholder converted $214.7 of preferred stock to common stock. Alcoa Alumina and Chemicals represents the primary entity formed by the Alcoa/WMC transaction. L. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE Primary earnings per common share are computed by subtracting annual preferred dividend requirements from net income, and dividing that amount by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. The average number of shares used to compute primary earnings per common share was 177,881,428 in 1994, 175,346,282 in 1993 and 170,948,178 in 1992. Fully diluted earnings per common share are not stated since the dilution is not material. M. PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCK Preferred Stock. Alcoa has two classes of preferred stock. Serial preferred stock has 557,740 shares authorized, with a par value per share of $100 and an annual $3.75 cumulative dividend preference per share. Class B serial preferred stock has 10 million shares authorized (none issued) and a par value of $1 per share. Common Stock. There are 300 million shares authorized at a par value of $1 per share. As of December 31, 1994, shares of common stock reserved for issuance were: Number of shares - ---------------------------------------------------------- Long-term stock incentive plan 9,659,040 Employees' savings plans 4,097,532 Incentive compensation plan 169,228 - ---------------------------------------------------------- 13,925,800 - ---------------------------------------------------------- Stock options under the long-term stock incentive plan have been and may be granted, generally at not less than market prices on the dates of grant, except for the $.50 per share options issued as a payout of earned performance share awards. At December 31, 1994, options for 4,242,636 shares were exercisable. The transactions for shares under option were:

O. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Various lawsuits and claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against Alcoa, including those pertaining to environmental, product liability, and safety and health matters. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot now be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on currently available facts, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position of the company. Under a power contract that expires no earlier than 2011, Alcoa is entitled to a fixed percentage of the annual output from a Northwest U.S. hydroelectric facility. Alcoa makes minimum annual payments of $8 whether or not it receives power. Alcoa could be required to increase its participation if other parties to the contract default. If all other parties had defaulted as of December 31, 1994, Alcoa's maximum liability would have been about $190. There is no reason to believe the other parties will default or that power will not be provided. 32 P. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION Alcoa is primarily an integrated producer of aluminum products. Alcoa's operations consist of three segments: Alumina and Chemicals, Aluminum Processing, and Non-Aluminum Products. The Alumina and Chemicals segment includes the production and sale of bauxite, alumina, alumina chemicals and transportation services. The Aluminum Processing segment comprises the production and sale of molten metal, ingot, and aluminum products that are flat-rolled, engineered or finished. Also included are power, transportation and other services. The Non-Aluminum Products segment includes the production and sale of electrical, ceramic, plastic and composite materials products, manufacturing equipment, gold, magnesium products, and steel and titanium forgings.

R. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying values and fair values of Alcoa's financial instruments at December 31 follow.
1994 1993 --------------------------------------------------- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair value value value value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cash and cash equivalents $ 619.2 $ 619.2 $ 411.7 $ 411.7 Short-term investments 5.5 5.5 243.6 243.6 Noncurrent receivables 67.6 67.6 218.9 218.9 Short-term debt 415.9 415.9 413.3 413.3 Long-term debt 1,029.8 1,002.3 1,432.5 1,545.0 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The methods used to estimate the fair value of certain finan- cial instruments follow. Cash and Cash Equivalents, Short-Term Investments and Short- Term Debt. The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of the instruments. All investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Noncurrent Receivables. The fair value of noncurrent receivables is based on anticipated cash flows and approximates carrying value. Long-Term Debt. The fair value is based on interest rates that are currently available to Alcoa for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Alcoa holds or purchases derivative financial instruments principally for purposes other than trading. Financial instru- ments held for trading purposes are insignificant. Details of the significant instruments follow. Foreign Exchange Contracts. The company enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge most of its firm and anticipated purchase and sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies for periods commensurate with its known or expected exposures. These contracts are part of a worldwide program to minimize the volatility due to foreign exchange exposures. The market risk exposure is essentially limited to risk related to currency rate movements. The forward exchange contracts and options in the following table are made up of contracts to hedge firm purchase and sale commitments and anticipated sales expected to be denominated in foreign currencies at December 31. The contracts generally mature within 12 months and are principally unsecured forward exchange contracts with carefully selected banks. Gains or losses arising from these contracts are reflected in other income when the transactions are completed. Unrealized gains (losses) at December 31, 1994 and 1993 were $47.8 and $(1.5), respectively. 34 The table below reflects the various types of foreign exchange contracts Alcoa uses to manage its foreign exchange risk.
1994 1993 --------------------------------------------------- Notional Market Notional Market amount value amount value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forwards $ 1,578.7 $ 1,637.4 $ 1,776.6 $ 1,766.1 Options purchased 422.3 19.8 138.1 3.1 Options written 162.0 (9.9) 69.2 .1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The notional amounts of options summarized above do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and thus are not a measure of the company's exposure to options. The amounts exchanged are based on the terms of the options which relate primarily to exchange rates and expiration dates. The table below summarizes by major currency the contractual amounts of Alcoa's forward exchange and option contracts in U.S. dollars translated at December 31 rates. The "buy" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to purchase foreign currencies and the "sell" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to sell foreign currencies.

Interest Rate Swaps. Alcoa's debt portfolio is managed by using interest rate swaps and options to achieve an overall desired position of fixed and floating rates. At December 31, 1994, Alcoa had outstanding four interest rate swap contracts to convert a fixed rate obligation to floating rates on a notional amount of $175. The contracts mature in 2001. The company also bought $100 notional amount of interest rate caps on the first 1995 swap payment. Alcoa Aluminio also had an outstanding interest rate swap to convert a floating rate obligation to a series of fixed rates on a notional amount of $109 at year-end 1994. Credit and market risk exposures are limited to the net interest differentials. The net payments or receipts from interest rate swaps are recorded as part of interest expense and are not material. The effect of interest rate swaps on Alcoa's composite interest rate on long-term debt was not material at the end of 1994. Alcoa is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperfor- mance by counterparties on the above instruments, but does not anticipate nonperformance by any of the counterparties. For further information on Alcoa's hedging and derivatives activities, see Risk Factors in the Financial Review section of this annual report. S. INCOME TAXES Alcoa implemented SFAS 109 as of January 1, 1992 and the cumu- lative effect of this change is reported in 1992 earnings. The components of income before taxes on income were:

35 Of the total tax loss carryforwards, $13.1 expires over the next 10 years, $65.8 expires over the next 15 years and $134.0 is unlimited. A substantial portion of the valuation allowance is for these carryforwards because the ability to utilize a portion of them is uncertain. There is no limit on utilization of the tax credit carryforwards. The cumulative amount of Alcoa's share of undistributed earnings for which no deferred taxes have been provided was $1,575.8 at December 31, 1994. Management has no plans to distribute such earnings in the foreseeable future. It is not practicable to determine the deferred tax liability on these earnings. T. CASH FLOW INFORMATION Alcoa considers all investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash payments for interest and income taxes follow.
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Interest* $ 107.3 $101.2 $ 193.9 Income taxes 238.4 193.6 264.4 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Includes $8.6 in 1994 and $63.8 in 1992 of amortized interest on the debentures retired early
In a noncash transaction early in 1993, $149 of 6 1/4 Conver- tible Subordinated Debentures due 2002 were converted to common stock by issuing 4.6 million shares of treasury stock. U. PENSION PLANS Alcoa maintains pension plans covering most U.S. employees and certain other employees. Pension benefits generally depend upon length of service, job grade and remuneration. Substantially all benefits are paid through pension trusts that are suffi- ciently funded to ensure that all plans can pay benefits to retirees as they become due. Pension costs include the following components that were calculated as of January 1 of each year.
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefits earned $ 90.6 $ 102.4 $ 92.2 Interest accrued on projected benefit obligation 261.2 253.9 250.7 Net amortization 46.5 59.8 29.7 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 398.3 416.1 372.6 Less: expected return on plan assets* 281.4 268.1 259.2 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 116.9 $ 148.0 $ 113.4 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *The actual returns were higher (lower) than the expected returns by $(282.7) in 1994, $324.2 in 1993 and $82.4 in 1992 and were deferred as actuarial gains (losses).
The status of the pension plans follows.

Supplemental information related only to Alcoa's U.S. pension plans partially insured by the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation follow.
Assets exceed Accumulated benefit accumulated obligation benefit obligation exceeds assets --------------------------------------------------- December 31 1994 1993 1994 1993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Plan assets at fair market value $ 3,079.1 $ 3,270.5 - $ 21.7 Accumulated benefit obligation (2,813.2) (3,115.6) - (23.9) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 265.9 $ 154.9 - $ (2.2) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alcoa also sponsors a number of defined contribution pension plans. Expenses were $32.9 in 1994, $34.5 in 1993 and $23.9 in 1992. 36 V. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS Alcoa implemented SFAS 106 as of January 1, 1992 and the cumu- lative effect of this change was reported in 1992 earnings. Alcoa maintains health care and life insurance benefit plans covering most eligible U.S. retired employees and certain other retirees. Generally, the medical plans pay a stated percentage of medical expenses reduced by deductibles and other coverages. These plans are generally unfunded, except for certain benefits funded through a trust. Life benefits are generally provided by insurance contracts. Alcoa retains the right, subject to existing agreements, to change or eliminate these benefits. Changes made in 1993 to certain medical plans may require contributions by future retirees to help offset medical cost increases. The changes reduced Alcoa's benefit expense and prior service costs. The components of postretirement benefit expense follow.
1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Service cost of benefits earned $ 20.2 $ 29.9 $ 42.9 Interest cost on liability 104.4 110.2 135.9 Net amortization (50.0) (32.4) - Return on plan assets (4.8) (5.2) (3.7) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Postretirement benefit costs $ 69.8 $ 102.5 $ 175.1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The status of the postretirement benefit plans was:
December 31 1994 1993 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Retirees $ 1,040.3 $ 1,070.4 Fully eligible active plan participants 112.5 142.9 Other active participants 307.8 378.6 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) 1,460.6 1,591.9 Plan assets, primarily stocks and bonds at market 53.3 53.4 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- APBO in excess of plan assets 1,407.3 1,538.5 Unrecognized net: Reduction in prior service costs 420.1 469.4 Actuarial gains (losses) 103.3 (78.8) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accrued postretirement benefit liability $ 1,930.7 $ 1,929.1 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For measuring the liability and expense, a 10% annual rate of increase in the per capita claims cost was assumed for 1995, declining gradually to 5.5% by the year 2003 and thereafter. Other assumptions used to measure the liability and expense follow.
December 31 1994 1993 1992 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Settlement discount rate 8.25% 6.75% 6.75% Long-term rate for compensation increases 5.5 5.5 5.5 Long-term rate of return on plan assets 9.0 9.0 9.0 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For 1994 a 1% increase in the trend rate for health care costs would have increased the APBO by 8% and service and interest costs by 9%. SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION QUARTERLY DATA (UNAUDITED) (dollars in millions, except share amounts)
