Investment Highlights

 

 

 

 

World-class Grundartangi smelter in Iceland – generates significant free cash flow in virtually all price environments

 

 

Successful restructuring of U.S. smelter system; results in meaningful cash generation at current aluminum prices

 

   

Announced acquisition of Sebree smelter provides significant upside

 

   

Restructuring of two power contracts, if implemented, would improve consolidated breakeven from approximately $1,800/T to under $1,700/T LME

 

 

Aluminum fundamentals supportive over medium/long term – regional premiums at historically high levels

 

 

Strong liquidity position and significant asset coverage

 

 

Historical track record of strong free cash flow generation

 

 

Experienced management team with proven ability to reduce cash costs

 

 

Supportive major shareholder in Glencore

Hawesville Power Update

 

 

 

 

Reached agreement (detailed 30-page term sheet) with current power provider (Big Rivers Electric Cooperative “BREC”)

 

 

BREC will procure power in wholesale market

 

   

Century can buy at daily market rate and/or on longer-term bilateral contracts

 

 

Cost will be market price (for energy, capacity, transmission) plus small charge for ancillary services

 

 

Current estimate of fully delivered cost based on forward screen post August – $35/MWH

 

   

Additional $2/MWH supplement until all approvals received and Coleman generating station can be shut (expected by year end)

 

   

Power savings translates to an increase in LTM 3/31/13 EBITDA of $59 million based on Hawesville’s annual power consumption of ~4.2 million MWH

 

 

Requires Century to make capital investment ($3MM) for capacitors to provide system voltage support

 

 

Conditions include full documentation, approval of various regulators (Kentucky PSC, MISO, etc), and consent of various third parties of power provider
