Rottneros AB ( (SE:RROS) ) has issued an update.
Rottneros reported a sharply weaker fourth quarter of 2025 as net turnover fell 6 percent to 587 MSEK, with higher sales volumes unable to offset lower market prices in USD and the impact of a stronger SEK. EBITDA plunged to -190 MSEK, hit by price pressure, currency effects, an annual maintenance shutdown at Vallvik and a 35 MSEK inventory write-down, while no emission allowance sales were recorded versus the prior year.
Despite record annual production of 233,000 tonnes at Vallvik and solid demand in its prioritised sulphate pulp niches, CTMP output remained constrained by weak market conditions and full-year CTMP sales declined 10 percent. Breach of a profitability covenant led to reclassification of certain receivables and a tighter view of available liquidity, and the board has proposed no dividend for 2025, underscoring the earnings pressure even as the equity ratio remains a robust 60 percent.
