Alcoa scores 55 out of 100 on Intrinsiqq's quality score, a weighted blend of 6 metrics each scored 0 to 100, which rates it a mixed business on these measures.

The metric-by-metric breakdown is on this scorecard.

What does Alcoa's quality score measure?+

Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from AA's SEC filings rather than opinion or sentiment. A higher score means a more durable, capital-efficient business; it is not a buy or sell signal. Open each metric on this page to see exactly where Alcoa scores well and where it falls behind.

How profitable is Alcoa?+

Alcoa runs a net margin of about 10.7%. Revenue has grown at roughly 6.7% a year recently. High, stable margins usually point to pricing power and operating discipline. Margins are most telling next to growth and returns on capital, all of which feed this quality score. This is analysis from SEC filings, not investment advice.
