Earnings Call Summary

Q4 2025
Earnings Call Date:Jan 30, 2026|
% Change Since:
|
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The call presents a mixed picture: the group shows solid financial strength (close to SEK 3.3bn full-year result), healthy ROCE (15%), a strong balance sheet and continued shareholder returns (dividend increase), and Energy delivered an important pickup supported by new wind capacity. However, material near-term headwinds persist: loss-making sawmill operations (Wood Products), a significant Q4 write-down of felling rights (~SEK 160m), elevated wood costs with limited downside so far, weak Board & Paper volumes with reliance on one-off energy and certificate gains (~SEK 250m in Q4), and storm-related timber volumes and costs. Given the balance of notable positives (financial position, ROCE, energy upside) and significant operational challenges and one-off pressures, the overall tone is balanced but cautious.
Company Guidance
Guidance from the call was cautious but specific: Holmen reported FY2025 operating profit "close to SEK 3.3bn" and industry ROCE of 15%, and the Board will propose raising the ordinary dividend from SEK 9.00 to SEK 9.50 (after SEK 13bn returned via dividends/buybacks over the last five years); leverage sits around 1x net debt/EBITDA and a debt-to-equity ratio of roughly 10%. Near-term cash needs include CapEx of a little above SEK 1bn next year (lower than 2025), and a scheduled Iggesund maintenance shut in Q3 with an estimated P&L impact of SEK 150m; no extra share buyback was announced. The January storm affects ~10m m3 nationally and ~300,000 m3 in Holmen’s area (~1/3 of Holmen’s annual harvest), with salvage costs “a bit more than SEK 100/m3” (c. SEK 30–40m impact next year). Forest valuation was SEK 57bn (‑2% YoY) on 1.3m ha (c. 1.0–1.1m ha productive); Q4 Forest EBIT was SEK 403m including a SEK 160m write‑down of felling rights (underlying Q4 up ~SEK 25m vs Q3). Board & Paper benefitted in Q4 by c. SEK 250m from lower-than-normal energy costs and higher green‑certificate/emission income (split roughly evenly), although about 30% of emission allotments will be lost next year (≈SEK 50m p.a.), and Wood Products made an operating loss of SEK 111m in Q4; management flagged energy/commodity and demand uncertainty into 2026 with no firm upside guidance.
Full-year profit and ROCE
Delivered close to SEK 3.3 billion for FY2025 and achieved a return on capital employed of 15% for the industry (sawmills + Board & Paper).
Strong balance sheet and shareholder returns
Debt-to-equity roughly 10%; net debt/EBITDA around 1x. Board proposed increasing the ordinary dividend from SEK 9.00 to SEK 9.50 (≈+5.6%). Last 5 years: SEK 13 billion returned to shareholders (dividends + buybacks).
Forest asset base and valuation
Owns ~1.3 million hectares (≈1.0–1.1M productive). Updated valuation of forest holdings SEK 57 billion (down ~2% YoY). Long-term historical average annual property price increase ~4.3% since 2005.
Energy division rebound and wind capacity added
Energy produced an uptick in Q4 versus earlier loss-making quarters; SE2 prices rose and January weather supported higher spot prices. Blisterliden wind farm started up just before year-end; Energy division trades unhedged at spot, benefiting from current higher prices and stable winter conditions.
Board & Paper Q4 performance (with one-off support)
Reported a strong Q4 result in Board & Paper, helped by approx. SEK 250 million of positive effects in Q4 from lower-than-normal energy costs and higher-than-normal income from green certificates and emission rights (split roughly evenly).
Forest underlying Q4 performance
Forest division reported Q4 result SEK 403 million; excluding a write-down of felling rights, underlying result increased by ~SEK 25 million vs Q3, driven by higher harvesting volumes (harvested a bit more than 800 cubic meters in Q4 per transcript).
CapEx expected to moderate
CapEx expected to be materially lower in 2026 versus 2025 (2026 guidance ~a bit above SEK 1 billion) after prior year wind farm investments.
Operational flexibility in hydropower
Hydropower generation was run efficiently in Q4 (produced when prices were high, reduced when low), providing a tailwind to Energy / Paper economics versus previous quarters.
