In the fourth quarter of 2021, shipments of primary aluminum increased by 2 percent sequentially. Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased by 13 percent sequentially, due to higher shipment volume and higher aluminum prices.
Century reported net income of $60.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, a $112.8 million improvement sequentially primarily due to higher shipment volume and higher aluminum prices. Fourth quarter results were positively impacted by $43.9 million of exceptional items, in particular $53.8 million of unrealized gains on forward derivative contracts (net of tax), partially offset by $9.9 million in share-based compensation costs. Thus, Century reported adjusted net income of $17.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, an $22.9 million improvement sequentially.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $82.2 million, an increase of $11.9 million from the prior quarter primarily driven by higher prices of primary aluminum and increased regional premiums, and higher volumes, partially offset by increased power prices.
Century's liquidity position at quarter end was $99.5 million. Quarterly cash flow was impacted by increased capital spend on the Mt. Holly restart project and changes in working capital.

| (2) Due to the historic fluctuations in our non-cash share-based compensation costs, we have updated our Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA definitions to exclude these costs. Accordingly, we have also updated our Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for FY 2020. | ||||||||||||
For the full year 2021, shipments of primary aluminum decreased by 3 percent sequentially. Net sales for the full year 2021 increased by $607.4 million sequentially, primarily driven by aluminum prices and regional premiums, offset by lower volume of shipments.
Century reported a net loss of $(167.1) million for the full year 2021, a $43.8 million decline from the full year 2020. Full year 2021 results were negatively impacted by $105.0 million of exceptional items, in particular $106.8 million of unrealized losses on forward derivative contracts (net of tax), and losses of $24.7 million related to the refinancing of our senior notes, partially offset by $49.8 million of tax benefit. Thus, Century reported an adjusted net loss of $(62.1) million, a $40.8 million improvement from the full year 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2021 was $174.2 million, an increase of $162.5 million compared to the prior year, primarily driven by higher prices of primary aluminum and increased regional premiums, partially offset by lower shipment volume and increased power prices.
"Century had a transformative year in 2021, expanding production at our Hawesville and Mt. Holly facilities, and breaking ground on our new billet casthouse in Grundartangi," commented President and Chief Executive Officer Jesse Gary. "The investments we made and hard work our employees accomplished in 2021 leave us in excellent position to take advantage of the uniformly strong market conditions that we are experiencing throughout the aluminum sector."
"We continue to recover well from the cyber attack that we suffered last week. Our operations and IT teams have done an excellent job maintaining production throughout the attack. While we continue to rely on manual operations in some areas, our teams are increasingly returning to normal operations across our locations."
"Aluminum prices have continued to strengthen as we enter 2022, with demand continuing its strong growth path while supply conditions, driven by energy shortages throughout the world have continued to tighten. As supply deficits have become particularly acute in our two core markets in the U.S. and Europe, Century is increasingly becoming the supplier of choice for our value-added product lines due to our secure, short supply lines to our domestic customer base."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate Century's financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of Century’s ongoing operating performance and ability to generate cash. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance an overall understanding of Century’s performance and our investors’ ability to review Century’s business from the same perspective as management. The tables below, under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures," provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, Century's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA included in this press release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures.
