However, although the one-year development reflects strong investor confidence in its aluminium industry prospects, doubts loom large over stock volatility. The data compiled by InvestingPro indicates stock trading at a high price-earnings ratio of 47.61, parallel to a comparatively narrow gross profit margin of 9.52 per cent.
InvestingPro projects a slight undervaluation of the shares, which would, in turn, give a potential edge to the investors willing to gain insight into and navigate this volatile stock.
Moreover, the third-quarter 2025 earnings, as reported by Century Aluminum, missed analysts’ estimates on earnings per share. Nevertheless, the stock saw a modest higher edge in aftermarket trading, denoting mixed investor reactions.
Separately, Texas Capital Securities initiated coverage on the company, setting a Buy rating and a price target of USD 42, implying a potential upside of approximately 30 per cent.
Meanwhile, Glencore Plc is reportedly considering selling a considerable stake in Century Aluminum via an overnight block trade. The transaction has an aim to raise up to USD 284.9 million through the sale, ranging from USD 30.65 to USD 31.65 per share, showing a discount of up to 5.1 per cent to the previous closing value.
