We reduce our casting and shipping costs by selling molten aluminum to the major customers of our Ravenswood and Hawesville facilities; the loss of one of these major customers would increase our production costs at those facilities.
A material change in our relationship with Glencore could affect how we purchase raw materials, sell our products and hedge our exposure to metal price risk.
Losses caused by disruptions in the supply of power would reduce the profitability of our operations.
Changes or disruptions to our current alumina supply arrangements could increase our raw material costs.
The cost of alumina used at Hawesville may be higher than under our LME-based alumina contracts.
Changes in the relative cost of certain raw materials and energy compared to the price of primary aluminum could affect our operating results.
We are subject to the risk of union disputes.
We are subject to a variety of environmental laws that could result in costs or liabilities.
We may not realize the expected benefits of the planned expansion of Nordural.
Operating in foreign countries exposes us to political, regulatory, currency and other related risks.
Our historical financial information may not be comparable to our results for future periods.
Our high level of indebtedness requires significant cash flow to meet our debt service requirements, which reduces cash available for other purposes, such as the payment of dividends, and limits our ability to pursue our growth strategy.
Restrictive covenants in our credit facilities and the indenture governing our senior notes limit our ability to incur additional debt and pursue our growth strategy.
We depend upon dividends from our subsidiaries to meet our debt service obligations.
The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.
