The parent of Australia’s Alcoa (ASX:AAI), Alcoa Incorporated (NYSE:AA) has beaten market expectations, rebounding from a loss to a first quarter net profit.
Kicking off the US reporting season, the US based aluminium giant reported income from continuing operations of $US94 million on the back of improving market conditions.
Revenue also increased to $US6 billion, also coming in higher than expected.
Alcoa believes its performance rebounded strongly due to its cash sustainability actions, focus on profitable growth, and stabilising markets.

Alcoa reported a full year net profit of $385.7 million in the 2011 financial year.
