Business Segments
15.    Business Segments
The Company is a producer of primary aluminum and alumina. The Company has organized itself, including management personnel and systems, financial processes, operational execution, governance and risk oversight, regulatory compliance, and every other aspect of the Company’s operations, to assess and manage the business on a holistic basis, from mine to metal, which tracks the upstream manufacturing process for aluminum. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") regularly receives and reviews financial information at the consolidated level to evaluate business performance and make operating decisions. The CODM uses the U.S. GAAP measure of consolidated Net Income to develop forecasting, to evaluate the Company’s overall profitability and financial performance and to make key operating decisions, such as the allocation of resources.
Neither the Company's three smelters nor Jamalco’s mining and refining operations meet the definition of operating segments. As a result, the Company has determined that it has only one operating and only one reportable segment, and that segment is managed on a consolidated basis. In accordance with ASC 280-10-50-34, the corresponding information for earlier periods is recast in the tables below to conform with the updated presentation.
Segment assets are reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as Total assets. Our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows presents Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and includes the measure of capital expenditures as Purchase of property, plant and equipment.
The following table presents information about the Company's single segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
