Century Aluminum Company is a global producer of primary aluminum and operates aluminum reduction facilities, or "smelters," in the United States and Iceland. Aluminum is an internationally traded commodity, and its price is effectively determined on the London Metal Exchange (the "LME"), plus applicable regional and value-added product premiums. Our smelters produce standard-grade and value-added primary aluminum products. Our current annual production capacity was approximately 770,000 tonnes per year ("tpy") as of December 31, 2025. We produced approximately 638,000 tonnes of primary aluminum in 2025.

In addition to our primary aluminum assets, we have a 55% joint venture interest in the Jamalco bauxite mining operation and alumina refinery in Jamaica ("Jamalco"). The remaining 45% interest in Jamalco is indirectly owned by the Government of Jamaica. Century's share of Jamalco's production capacity is approximately 770,000 tpy. We also own a carbon anode production facility located in the Netherlands ("Vlissingen"). Carbon anodes are consumed in the production of primary aluminum. Vlissingen supplies carbon anodes to our aluminum smelter in Grundartangi, Iceland. Each of our aluminum smelters in the United States produces anodes at on-site facilities.
