On January 6, 2005, Alcan completed
the spin-off of Novelis to its shareholders. Novelis consists
of substantially all of the aluminum rolled products businesses
held by Alcan prior to its 2003 acquisition of Pechiney,
together with some of Alcan's alumina and primary metal-related
businesses in Brazil, which are fully integrated with
the rolled products operations there, as well as four former
Pechiney rolling facilities in Europe. However, the financial
information presented for 2004 and previous years includes
Novelis. |
