Distributions will be treated as dividends for tax purposes to the extent that they are paid out of Alcoa’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds Alcoa’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, the excess will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Alcoa shares or CDIs. The balance of the excess, if any, will be treated as gain from the sale of shares.
Non-dividend distributions characterized as “return of capital” for U.S. tax purposes require Alcoa to post on its website Form 8937 reflecting the impact on shareholders’ tax basis for each distribution made during the previous year. The information contained in the Form 8937 is based on reasonable assumptions and estimates at the time the Form is posted. Such estimates and assumptions can change and, if they do, Alcoa will file a corrected Form 8937. When applicable, you can download Form 8937.
Distributions will be treated as dividends to non-U.S. holders to the extent that they are paid out of Alcoa’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds Alcoa’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, the excess will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Alcoa shares or CDIs. The balance of the excess, if any, will be treated as gain from the sale of shares. Please refer to the section above on a dividend’s classification for U.S. tax purposes and reporting on Form 8937.
Taxable dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate, or a reduced rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty. To obtain a reduced rate of withholding under an applicable income tax treaty, a holder generally will be required to provide a properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, certifying its entitlement to benefits under the income tax treaty. A non-U.S. holder eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the Internal Revenue Service. Shareholders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. tax consequences of these distributions, as additional withholding rules may apply under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or “FATCA”.
See IRS Publication 550, Investment Income and Expenses. State tax treatment may vary. Shareholders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors regarding the income tax consequences of these distributions.
