what happened
Swedish forestry group SCA reported third-quarter EBITDA of SEK 1.63bn, with a margin of 31% and results flat compared with a year earlier. Stronger containerboard and renewable energy operations offset continued weakness in pulp and solid wood, according to a summary published by TradingView.
For the fourth quarter, the company expects lower wood costs and further containerboard price realization. Seasonal effects and higher input costs are expected to weigh on results. The information was published by TradingView.
why it matters
For investors, the key point is that SCA held its margin through packaging and energy rather than pulp markets. This suggests diversified forest companies can better withstand weakness in individual commodity markets.
