Specialty cellulose pricing and operating-rate improvements drove a sharp EBITDA rebound, while paperboard/high-yield pulp remained loss-making and tariffs add uncertainty.
The call frames a near-term catalyst (Q4 2026 definitive path) plus ongoing margin support from higher Cellulose Specialties pricing, while highlighting tariff and segment pressure risks.
Q2 showed strong sequential improvement and a clear Q4 timeline for the strategic alternatives review, which can reprice deal-option value.
Board/officer change is a governance and legal-function continuity signal, but the filing provides no operational or financial guidance.
