The Chinese state-controlled company, Chalco, said: “Q3 net income was RMB 2.23 billion ($349 million), up around 430% from an adjusted RMB 421.25 million a year earlier.”

The Refinitiv Eikon data reveals: “Profits were also up almost 6% from a bumper second quarter and marked Chalco's best result since the net income of RMB 2.79 billion in the fourth quarter of 2013.”

The Q3 revenues concurrently shot up by 51.3% Y-o-Y to RMB 74.19 billion as Shanghai aluminium prices escalated to their highest since 2008. The rebound cropped as the electricity crisis impacted the industry and govt. imposed restrictions on Chinese smelters and took about 3 million tonnes of annual supply out of the market.
