[SMM Aluminum Flash News] Tiwai Smelter Faces Strike Risk as Talks Move to Mediation
The Rio Tinto-owned Tiwai Point aluminum smelter in New Zealand faces strike risk, with 186 workers, about 28% of the workforce, planning stoppages on May 4, 6, 8 and 10. The action follows around 2.5 years of unresolved labor negotiations over pay, benefits and working conditions. The company has proposed mediation on May 20 to reach an agreement. While management said current terms remain competitive and negotiations are ongoing, the planned industrial action could disrupt production schedules and operational stability at the smelter. If talks fail to make progress, the risk of prolonged disruptions may increase, creating uncertainty for near-term aluminum supply and adding pressure to an already tight global market environment.

【SMM Aluminum Flash News】Hydro Reports Q1 2026 EBITDA of NOK 8.668B, Down from Last Year but Profitability Strong
According to Hydro's official website, Hydro's adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 was NOK 8.668 billion, lower than NOK 9.516 billion in the same period last year. This was mainly due to lower raw material costs, higher metal prices, and increased sales of alumina and metals, but this was partially offset by lower alumina prices, a stronger NOK, and lower electricity generation. Hydro's profitability was strong this quarter, with adjusted earnings per share increasing to NOK 2.07 in the first quarter of 2026, compared to NOK 1.63 in the first quarter of 2025. The upstream business segment continued to operate strongly in the first quarter.
