Alcoa Upstream Corporation (to be renamed Alcoa Corporation prior to separation) has filed an initial Registration Statement on Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Alcoa Corporation will hold the Upstream and North American packaging businesses. The Value-Add businesses will remain in the existing company, which will be named Arconic Inc. The separation is on track to be completed in the second half of 2016. “The filing of the Form 10 is an important milestone as we prepare to launch two businesses that are well-positioned for success,” said Klaus Kleinfeld, Alcoa Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Alcoa Corporation has a low-cost base that will enable resilience and value-creation at all stages of the commodity cycle. Arconic is a technology-driven company producing performance materials and highly engineered products for growth markets, poised to deliver consistent profitable growth. Through our multi-year transformation, we have substantially re-positioned each business and laid the foundation for future long-term success. The separation will allow each new company to pursue its own distinct corporate strategy and unlock the full value of each business.” Alcoa Corporation will be a globally competitive Upstream company. Its businesses will include Bauxite, Alumina, Aluminum, Cast Products and Energy and rolling mill operations that will serve the North American packaging market. Arconic will be a global leader in precision engineering and advanced manufacturing, providing a wide range of multi-material solutions to growth markets including aerospace structures, jet engines, automotive and commercial transportation. Its businesses will include the Engineered Products and Solutions, Global Rolled Products, and Transportation and Construction Solutions segments. The initial Form 10 includes preliminary detailed information about Alcoa Corporation as a standalone company, such as historical financial information, as well as a description of Alcoa Corporation’s business and strategy and other legal and financial disclosures. The initial Form 10 is subject to change prior to completion of the separation. The separation remains subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including obtaining final approval from the Alcoa Board of Directors, receipt of a favorable IRS ruling and opinions of Alcoa’s tax advisors regarding certain U.S. federal income tax matters and the effectiveness of the Form 10.
