Current report
During the second quarter of 2026, the USDOC issued affirmative preliminary antidumping duty determinations with respect to imports from Brazil and Norway and an affirmative preliminary countervailing duty determination with respect to imports from Brazil. In addition, the USITC scheduled the final phase of the investigations, with final determinations expected later in 2026.
Current report
Separately, during the third quarter of 2026, the Office of the United States Trade Representative announced final Section 301 actions applicable to imports from Brazil and Norway, including an aggregate 37.5% tariff on Brazilian imports of DWP (HTS Code 4702) and a 12.5% tariff on Norwegian imports of DWP. However, the ultimate impact of these actions will depend on a number of factors, including the extent to which downstream customers are able to utilize available trade programs and other regulatory mechanisms applicable to exported products.
Current report
Our comprehensive review of strategic alternatives remains the top priority and is progressing with urgency and discipline. The review is focused on evaluating the full range of strategic and financial alternatives available to us and identifying the path that best maximizes value for shareholders. We expect to conclude the review and communicate a clear path forward during the fourth quarter of 2026.
Current report
While the review is underway, management remains focused on strengthening the performance and value of the business. Our priorities are to advance our Cellulose Specialties leadership strategy, improve operating reliability and asset optimization, generate cash and maintain disciplined capital allocation. We believe stronger commercial execution, operating performance and cash generation enhance RYAM’s value under any potential path.
Current report
Our second quarter results reflected continued progress against these priorities, including higher CS pricing and improved HPC operating income compared to the prior year quarter. We expect sequential improvement in the second half of 2026, although results may continue to be affected by customer inventory levels, demand conditions, commodity pricing, input cost inflation, logistics costs and geopolitical developments.
Current report
We expect second-half performance to benefit from continued execution of our CS leadership strategy and improved operating performance.
Current report
CS volumes are expected to remain below prior year levels, as certain customers continue to manage inventories and ordering patterns, particularly in acetate and ethers. Second-half volumes are expected to improve compared with the first half of the year and remain in line with our expectations.
Current report
The 21% year-over-year increase in CS pricing during the second quarter reflects the differentiated performance and value that our products deliver across the grades and end markets we serve. We expect CS pricing to remain significantly above prior-year levels through the second half, with full-year pricing aligned with our prior expectations.
Current report
Our commercial approach remains focused on sustaining the pricing progress achieved to date and recognizing the differentiated performance of our products. We are applying this approach with greater precision across products, markets and customer relationships, while pursuing volume and mix opportunities supported by market conditions. This approach is intended to reinforce our competitive positions, support long-term customer relationships and improve the quality and consistency of earnings.
Current report
CC volumes are expected to remain elevated as we optimize production and asset loading. Market pricing for fluff and viscose has stabilized, with modest improvement expected through the third quarter. Biomaterials results are expected to improve year over year, supported by improved feedstock availability and stable operating performance at Tartas.
Current report
Chemicals, logistics and other input costs remain subject to inflationary and geopolitical pressure. We have implemented commercial recovery actions on certain CS products where commercially and contractually appropriate. These actions, together with improving commodity pricing, are expected to partially mitigate current inflationary pressures.
Current report
We expect second-half performance to benefit from tightening PBD industry operating rates, which should support firmer pricing, together with continued growth in higher-value folding packaging products, including freezer board and oil-and-grease-resistant grades. In HYP, the market remains structurally oversupplied and pricing remains challenged; however, we are progressing commercialization of softwood rolled pulp for absorbent-care applications, which should support improved mix and broader participation in differentiated end uses. Additionally, we are actively monitoring evolving trade dynamics, including the recently announced tariff on certain Canadian origin products, and have actionable mitigation plans in place.
Current report
We will continue to maintain disciplined control of discretionary spending and pursue structural efficiencies across the organization. Subject to variability in foreign exchange rates, incentive compensation and costs associated with the strategic review, Corporate & Other Adjusted EBITDA is expected to approximate $45 million in 2026, compared with $72 million in 2025.
Current report
We remain focused on preserving liquidity and financial flexibility while supporting safe and reliable operations. Capital expenditures will continue to be prioritized toward essential maintenance, reliability and initiatives that support near-term cash generation and attractive risk-adjusted returns.
Current report
Cash generation and deleveraging remain important priorities. We will continue to actively manage working capital, capital spending and operating costs while maintaining appropriate liquidity and compliance with our debt covenants.
Current report
Net Sales
Current report
Operating loss for the quarter ended June 27, 2026 increased $6 million, or 600%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by a non-cash HYP asset impairment of $13 million, the impact of the PBD & HYP planned maintenance outage and market-related downtime taken in the current quarter and higher chemicals and logistics costs. Partially offsetting these decreases were the increase in net sales, improved operating rates at the HPC plants, lower wood and other fixed costs and favorable foreign exchange rates.
Current report
Operating loss for the six months ended June 27, 2026 increased $56 million, or 350%, compared to the same prior year period, driven by non-cash HPC permanent idling charges of $41 million, the non-cash HYP asset impairment of $13 million, higher chemicals and logistics costs and the impact of the PBD & HYP planned maintenance outage and market-related downtime taken in the current period. Partially offsetting these decreases were improved operating rates at the HPC plants, lower wood, purchased pulp, energy and other fixed costs, prior year non-cash environmental reserves charges of $12 million, favorable foreign exchange rates and an insurance recovery of $5 million related to the 2024 Jesup plant fire.
Current report
See Operating Results by Segment below for further discussion. See also Note 2—Temiscaming Operations, Note 6—Accrued and Other Current Liabilities and Note 8—Environmental Liabilities to our Financial Statements for further details on the permanent idling charges and HYP asset impairment, insurance recovery and environmental reserves charges, respectively.
Current report
Favorable foreign exchange rates during the quarter and six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to unfavorable rates in the same prior year periods resulted in favorable impacts of $2 million and $3 million, respectively.
Current report
The effective tax rates on the loss from continuing operations for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2025 were not meaningful as a result of the full write-off of our Canadian DTAs (see Note 15—Income Taxes to our Financial Statements for further details). Also driving the differences between the effective tax rates and the federal statutory rate of 21% were different statutory tax rates in foreign jurisdictions, valuation allowances on nondeductible U.S. interest expense, U.S. tax credits and nondeductible executive compensation.
Current report
Discontinued Operations
Current report
During the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2025, we recorded pre-tax income from discontinued operations of $4 million related to our remaining CEWS benefit claims deferred since 2021. See Note 3—Discontinued Operations to our Financial Statements for further details.
Current report
Net Sales - Three Months Ended
Current report
Net sales of our High Purity Cellulose segment for the second quarter increased $29 million, or 11%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by:
Current report
–CC sales volume increased as our plants experienced higher operating rates compared to the prior quarter and also shifted to CC production in the current quarter due to lower orders for CS products.
Current report

Previous report
•In April 2026, an isolated fire occurred at our HPC plant in Jesup, Georgia during a scheduled annual maintenance outage. See Note 1—Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation for further information.
Previous report
The USDOC has initiated antidumping and countervailing duty investigations. Preliminary determinations are being issued on a rolling basis, with additional determinations expected in the second quarter of 2026. Final determinations by the USDOC and the USITC are currently expected by the fourth quarter of 2026.
Previous report
In 2026, we remain focused on execution, cash discipline and measurable improvement across the portfolio. Our priorities are to deliver positive free cash flow, strengthen our leadership in CS and drive year-over-year EBITDA improvement across the business.
Previous report
Based on our first quarter results, we continue to expect full year EBITDA to be higher than 2025 and to generate positive free cash flow. Although macroeconomic conditions remain challenging and execution of our CS leadership initiative is ongoing, we believe our strategy is positioning RYAM for improved performance.
Previous report
We expect improvement to be driven by disciplined commercial execution, including CS pricing actions that reflect the value of our products. CS volumes are expected to be lower in 2026 as customers adjust ordering and inventory positions, with improvement over the year. CC market conditions have been challenging, though fluff and viscose pricing have recently stabilized and are expected to improve modestly throughout the year. CC volumes are expected to be higher because of the CS actions and market dynamics. Our biomaterial products are expected to generate year-over-year improvement through improved feedstock and stable performance. Input costs are presently under inflationary pressure, which may persist throughout the year if the conflict in the Middle East persists. We are pursuing cost surcharges, where possible, to mitigate the impact of inflationary pressures.
Previous report
We expect year-over-year improvement to be driven by new product commercialization, volume growth and continued expansion into higher-value end markets. We also expect pricing to stabilize as supply and demand dynamics improve, supported by ongoing operational and cost discipline.
Previous report
We will maintain strict control of discretionary spending and continue driving structural efficiencies, with a focus on supporting cash generation and execution across the businesses.
Previous report
We remain committed to disciplined capital allocation and liquidity management. We will prioritize and reduce capital expenditures with a focus on near-term cash generation and deleveraging, and will continue to evaluate capital return options within our capital allocation framework as performance and financial flexibility improve.
Previous report
Operating loss for the quarter ended March 28, 2026 increased $50 million, or 333%, compared to the prior year quarter, driven by the decrease in net sales and non-cash permanent idling charges of $41 million in the current quarter as a result of the decision to permanently cease DWP production at the Temiscaming HPC plant. Partially offsetting these decreases were lower energy, wood and purchased pulp costs, lower environmental remediation expense, favorable foreign exchange rates and an insurance recovery of $4 million related to the 2024 Jesup plant fire. See Operating Results by Segment below for further discussion.
Previous report
Comparing the current quarter to the prior year quarter, foreign exchange rate fluctuations favorably impacted results by $1 million.
