Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
Alcoa Corporation trades at $42.21. We do not hold enough of the inputs to value this company with the confidence the estimate implies, so we publish no fair value for it rather than a number we would not defend.
Our moat model scores it 52 out of 100, which is a moat, but not a deep one. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
It changes hands at 8.7 times earnings. Be careful reading that in isolation: for a cyclical business a low P/E arrives at the top of the cycle, when profits are peaking and about to fall, which is exactly when the shares look cheapest and are not.

Estimates are the published analyst consensus and move often. An earnings date is scheduled, not certain, and a share tends to reprice most violently on the day itself.

A word of warning on reading these figures: a 13F reports the market value of a holding, so a fund that traded nothing at all still appears to have sold when the price fell. We found 102 companies where the standard reading gives the opposite answer. Only the share count is honest.

Common questions
Which funds own AA?
15 of the institutions we track reported a position in AA in their most recent SEC 13F filing. A 13F is filed up to 45 days after quarter end, so it tells you what a fund held then, not what it holds now.
What is AA's P/E ratio?
AA trades at 8.7 times earnings. A low P/E is not automatically cheap: on a cyclical company it is usually a warning that earnings are at a peak.
Does Alcoa Corporation (AA) pay a dividend?
Yes. Alcoa Corporation yields 0.95% at the current share price. It has paid $0.100 per share over the trailing twelve months. It has paid a dividend in each of the last 42 complete calendar years. A dividend is declared by the board and can be cut at any time; a yield is a fact about the current price, not a promise.
When does AA report earnings next?
Alcoa Corporation is scheduled to report on 15 Oct 2026. Companies move earnings dates, so read it as scheduled rather than certain.
