In plain English
Alcoa is a pure-play upstream aluminum company — it mines its own bauxite, refines it into alumina, and smelts alumina into primary aluminum. It sits at the very start of the metal chain: a price-taker on two volatile commodities (alumina and aluminum) whose profits swing with LME prices and its own vast energy bills.
