What the filing says
Sylvamo reported Q2 2026 net loss of $11 million (vs. $15M profit in Q2 2025) on sales of $806 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $60 million (down from $82M year-over-year). The company is executing strategic investments at its Eastover, South Carolina mill: the hardwood woodyard line began operation in May; the paper machine optimization adding 60,000 short tons of capacity is on track for Q4 2026 completion; and a sale-leaseback warehouse expansion is planned for Q1 2027. The company terminated its Riverdale supply agreement with International Paper and is navigating tariff changes and extended maintenance outages. Free cash flow was negative $23 million in Q2; management expects cash generation to improve in H2 2026.
Why this rating
Earnings deteriorated YoY; transition headwinds (mill outages, tariff impacts) offset price realization. Strategic investments are progress but not yet generating returns. Relative to $2.0B market cap, near-term profitability pressure is material but temporary.
