(1) Alcoa believes that income from continuing operations excluding
restructuring and other charges is a measure that should be presented
in addition to income from continuing operations determined in
accordance with GAAP. The following matters should be considered when
evaluating this non-GAAP financial measure:

    --  Alcoa reviews the operating results of its businesses
        excluding the impacts of restructurings and divestitures.
        Excluding the impacts of these charges can provide an
        additional basis of comparison. Management believes that these
        charges are unusual in nature, and would not be indicative of
        ongoing operating results. As a result, management believes
        these charges should be considered in order to compare past,
        current, and future periods.

    --  The economic impacts of the restructuring and divestiture
        charges are described in the footnotes to Alcoa's financial
        statements. Generally speaking, charges associated with
        restructurings include cash and non-cash charges and are the
        result of employee layoff, plant consolidation of assets, or
        plant closure costs. These actions are taken in order to
        achieve a lower cost base for future operating results.

    --  Charges associated with divestitures principally represent
        adjustments to the carrying value of certain assets and
        liabilities and do not typically require a cash payment. These
        actions are taken primarily for strategic reasons as the
        company has decided not to participate in this portion of the
        portfolio of businesses.

    --  Alcoa's growth over the last five years, and the onset of the
        manufacturing recession led to the aforementioned charges in
        2001 and 2002. Before the start of the recent manufacturing
        recession, Alcoa last recorded charges associated with
        restructuring and divestitures in 1997.

    --  Restructuring and divestiture charges are typically material
        and are considered to be outside the normal operations of a
        business. Corporate management is responsible for making
        decisions about restructurings and divestitures.

    --  There can be no assurance that additional restructurings and
        divestitures will not occur in future periods. To compensate
        for this limitation, management believes that it is
        appropriate to consider both income from continuing operations
        determined under GAAP as well as income from continuing
        operations excluding restructuring and other charges.

(2) Restructuring and other charges totaled $31 of income for the
first quarter of 2004 before taxes and minority interests. The amount
principally represents a realized gain on the sale of the specialty
chemicals business, partially offset by layoff charges. After taxes
and minority interests, restructuring and other charges amounted to
income of $50 in the first quarter of 2004.
