Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.
Executive summary
Achieved solid business performance in a volatile demand environment, with all operational segments posting positive adjusted EBIT for the second consecutive quarter.
Strengthened focus on renewable packaging and sustainability, with major steps including divestment of 12.4% of Swedish forest land and a strategic review of remaining forest assets.
Transformation initiatives and a new, leaner organizational structure were implemented to drive long-term value and operational efficiency.
Oulu board line ramp-up impacted profitability but positions for future growth.
Completed acquisition of Junnikkala Oy sawmills to support integration and cost efficiency.
Financial highlights
Q2 2025 sales reached €2.4 billion, up 5% year-over-year, driven by higher deliveries and structural changes.
Adjusted EBIT was €126 million, down €27 million year-over-year, mainly due to a €50 million negative impact from the Oulu ramp-up.
Cash flow from operations was €145 million; after investments, free cash flow was negative €37 million, as expected due to Oulu investments.
Net debt to adjusted EBITDA improved to 3.3x from 3.5x year-over-year; net debt increased slightly to €4 billion.
Forest assets fair value at €9 billion, equivalent to €11.4 per share.
Outlook and guidance
Oulu ramp-up expected to reach EBITDA breakeven in Q4 2025; full ramp-up to add €800 million in sales by 2027.
CapEx expected to decrease as Oulu investment phase ends; net debt and leverage ratio anticipated to improve post-forest asset divestment.
Market demand expected to remain subdued and volatile due to macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty.
Full-year 2025 adjusted EBIT to be negatively impacted by €100 million or more from Oulu ramp-up; capex forecast €730–790 million.
Focus for 2025 includes improving profitability, cash flow, and cost competitiveness across sourcing, operations, and fixed costs.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
