The earnings call presented a mixed view with a focus on strategic initiatives and efficiency improvements leading to positive performance in some areas, but challenges remain with the Oulu ramp-up and high input costs.

Company Guidance -

Q3 2025

During the second quarter of 2025, Stora Enso reported a solid business performance in a challenging demand environment. The company's sales increased by 5% year-on-year to EUR 2.4 billion, primarily driven by stable prices and improved deliveries, particularly in the food products and packaging solutions sectors. Despite facing continued weakness in the board and pulp markets, Stora Enso achieved a positive adjusted EBIT of EUR 126 million, although this was impacted negatively by approximately EUR 50 million due to the ongoing Oulu consumer board line ramp-up. The company's operational efficiency improvements resulted in a reduced operating working capital to sales ratio of 7%, a decrease of 2 percentage points from the previous year. Additionally, Stora Enso made strides in strategic initiatives, such as the divestment of 12.4% of its Swedish forest land for EUR 900 million, which is expected to enhance financial flexibility and reduce net debt that had slightly increased to EUR 4 billion. The Forest segment continued to perform strongly, with its asset fair value estimated at EUR 9 billion. Looking forward, Stora Enso remains focused on its Renewable Packaging strategy and continues to explore various options, including a potential separation and listing of its forest assets to maximize shareholder value.
