Risks center on commodity price volatility, but tariff protections and strong domestic demand position CENX to maintain high utilization and market share.
CENX posted Q1 earnings growth and expects stronger Q2 EBITDA as higher aluminum prices and premiums offset weaker shipments.
Century Aluminum (CENX) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.06 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.16 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.28 per share a year ago.
