Good afternoon. And welcome to the Alcoa Corporation Third Quarter 2022 Earnings Presentation and Conference Call. All participants will be in a listen-only mode. [Operator Instructions] After today’s presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. [Operator Instructions]

Please note this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Mr. James Dwyer, Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead, sir.

James Dwyer

Thank you, and good day, everyone. I am joined today by Roy Harvey, Alcoa Corporation President and Chief Executive Officer; and William Oplinger, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. We will take your questions after comments by Roy and Bill.

As a reminder, today’s discussion will contain forward-looking statements relating to future events and expectations that are subject to various assumptions and caveats. Factors that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from these statements are included in today’s presentation and in our SEC filings.

In addition, we have included some non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the appendix to today’s presentation. Any reference in our discussion today to EBITDA means adjusted EBITDA. Finally, as previously announced, the earnings release and slide presentation are available on our website.

With that, here’s Roy.

Roy Harvey

Thank you, Jim, and thanks to everyone for joining our call today. As always, we will first review the quarterly financial results, then discuss our markets and our company, and finally, we will answer questions after we conclude our prepared remarks.

Before we get into the details, however, I’d like to quickly highlight the work that we have done at Alcoa over these past several years to strengthen our company. So we can be successful through all market cycles. We have built a much stronger foundation, our balance sheet is strong and we are well positioned to address current challenges focusing on driving improvement on items within our direct control.
