Excluding tax-effected certain items, net income for fiscal 2013 was $241 million, compared to a net income of $218 million for fiscal 2012.

Net sales for fiscal 2013 were $9.8 billion, an 11% decrease compared to the $11.1 billion reported in the same period a year ago.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 was $240 million, representing a 3% increase when compared to the $233 million reported for the same period a year ago, due primarily to stronger demand and good cost control.

Shipments of aluminum rolled products totaled 2,786 kilotonnes for fiscal 2013, down slightly compared to shipments of 2,838 kilotonnes for the same period last year due mostly to the sale of the company's three foil plants in Europe and production disruptions in North America. Shipments of aluminum rolled products totaled 698 kilotonnes for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, essentially flat compared to shipments of 703 kilotonnes for the same period last year.
"As expected, we saw a sequential recovery from our seasonally low third quarter, with EBITDA increasing 30%," commented Phil Martens, Novelis President and Chief Executive Officer, "driven by strong demand, good cost control and higher operating efficiencies. And despite multiple unexpected headwinds in the second half of the fiscal year, as a result of prudent actions and fiscal discipline, the Company was able to achieve EBITDA of nearly $1 billion for the year. This was accomplished while commissioning two large-scale expansions, closing or divesting underperforming and non-core assets and making good progress on several ongoing global rolling, finishing and recycling expansions. I am proud of our accomplishments this year as we produced solid results in a transformational year marked by heavy investment."
