Kaiser Aluminum Corporation reported record second quarter 2026 financial results, with net sales reaching $1.3 billion and conversion revenue of $437 million. The company posted net income of $97 million, or $5.72 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA totalled $166 million, with a margin of 38.1%. The company's net debt leverage ratio improved to 2.1x. Kaiser declared a quarterly dividend of $0.77 and raised its full year outlook. Chairman Keith Harvey attributed the strong performance to favourable end-market positioning, higher-value packaging mix, improving aerospace demand, and beneficial scrap spreads. Metal price lag provided a tailwind of approximately $27 million for the quarter. The Franklin, Tennessee-based company produces semi-fabricated specialty aluminium products for aerospace, packaging, engineering, and automotive applications.
