Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. (NYSE:RYAM) (the “Company”) today reported results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.
“2025 was a challenging year for RYAM,” said Scott Sutton, President and Chief Executive Officer of RYAM. “Various disruptions and a difficult demand environment pressured volumes, earnings and cash generation, and we delivered full-year revenue of $1.5 billion, Adjusted EBITDA of $133 million and negative Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $88 million — performance we are not satisfied with and cannot repeat.
“In 2026, our focus is sharpening around disciplined execution and cash. Our priorities are clear: deliver positive free cash flow, assert our leadership in Cellulose Specialties and drive year-over-year EBITDA improvement across every business. In Cellulose Specialties, we have the market position to lead, and we are taking value-based pricing actions to earn the returns our products deserve; as we execute, volumes will be pressured early in the year as customers adjust ordering and inventory positions. At the same time, we are tightening working capital, addressing our fixed cost structure and prioritizing and reducing CapEx relative to 2025 — focusing spend on essential maintenance and the highest-return projects. This is the path to converting improved EBITDA into cash, rebuilding a healthier operating base and positioning RYAM for stronger performance in 2027 and beyond.”
Sutton added, “Our employees are aligned and engaged behind an execution-focused operating model aimed at restoring cash generation, strengthening our leadership positions and lifting people.”
Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results
The Company reported a loss from continuing operations and net loss each of $21 million, or $(0.32) per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 and a loss from continuing operations and net loss each of $16 million, or $(0.25) per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

Cellulose Specialties
Net sales for the fourth quarter increased $6 million, or 2 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter driven by a 7 percent increase in average sales price that was primarily due to negotiated price increases and sales mix. Partially offsetting the increase in average sales price was a 4 percent decrease in sales volumes driven by larger customer orders in 2024 as a result of the indefinite suspension of Temiscaming cellulose operations.
Operating income for the fourth quarter increased $2 million, or 4 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter driven by the higher average sales price, lower costs due to the 2024 indefinite suspension of Temiscaming cellulose operations and the prior year impact of the fire at the Jesup plant. Partially offsetting these improvements were the lower sales volumes and a $7 million energy cost benefit from sales of excess emission allowances in 2024, the current year sales of which occurred in the third quarter.
Biomaterials
Net sales for the fourth quarter increased $2 million, or 25 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter primarily driven by higher lignosulfonates and bioethanol sales, as the new bioethanol facility had not yet fully ramped up in 2024 and lignosulfonate powder production was halted during this time to assist in stabilizing bioethanol production.
Operating income for the fourth quarter was flat compared to the same prior year quarter as the increase in net sales was offset by increases in various operating costs.
Cellulose Commodities
Net sales for the fourth quarter increased $6 million, or 7 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter driven by a 2 percent increase in both average sales price and sales volumes due to product mix and sales timing.
Operating loss for the fourth quarter was flat compared to the same prior year quarter as the higher sales, lower wood costs, lower costs due to the indefinite suspension of Temiscaming cellulose operations, the prior year impact of the fire at the Jesup plant and the impact of the timing of planned maintenance outages compared to the prior year quarter were offset by higher logistics costs and higher energy costs that were due, in part, to a $3 million energy cost benefit from sales of excess emission allowances in 2024, the current year sales of which occurred in the third quarter.
Paperboard
Net sales for the fourth quarter decreased $16 million, or 27 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter. Average sales price and sales volumes decreased 9 percent and 19 percent, respectively, driven by mix and continued pressure from new U.S. capacity.
Operating results for the fourth quarter declined $5 million, or 125 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter driven by the lower sales and the impacts of the current quarter market-driven downtime and the timing of planned maintenance outages compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by lower purchased pulp and energy costs.
High-Yield Pulp
Net sales for the fourth quarter decreased $4 million, or 13 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter. Average sales price and sales volumes decreased 7 percent and 6 percent, respectively, driven by lower demand, including in China where demand for all grades of market pulp were down, continued oversupply of domestic high-yield pulp in China and the timing of shipments, primarily related to shipping challenges to customers in India.
Operating loss for the fourth quarter improved $2 million, or 25 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter driven by lower key input and certain fixed costs, partially offset by the lower sales and the impact of the current quarter market-driven downtime.
Corporate
Operating loss for the fourth quarter improved $1 million, or 6 percent, compared to the same prior year quarter primarily driven by lower variable compensation costs, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange rates and higher environmental remediation expense.
Non-Operating Income & Expense
Included in non-operating results in the quarter ended December 31, 2025 were charges of $3 million related to the Company’s discontinued involvement in the AGE project, a $2 million pension settlement loss and a $1 million increase to the liability related to SWEN’s put option fair value remeasurement. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations resulted in a $2 million unfavorable impact when comparing the fourth quarters of 2025 and 2024.
Liquidity
The Company ended the fourth quarter with $157 million of global liquidity, including $75 million of cash, $72 million of borrowing capacity under the ABL Credit Facility and $10 million of availability under the France factoring facility.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s consolidated net secured leverage ratio was 3.9 times covenant EBITDA.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this document regarding anticipated financial, business, legal or other outcomes, including business and market conditions, outlook and other similar statements relating to future events, developments or financial or operational performance or results, are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “estimate,” “target,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “guidance” and other similar language. However, the absence of these or similar words or expressions does not mean a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that these expectations will be attained, and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to various risks and uncertainties. All statements made in this earnings release are made only as of the date set forth at the beginning of this release. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the information made in this release in the event facts or circumstances change after the date of this release. The Company has not filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. As a result, all financial results described in this earnings release should be considered preliminary, and are subject to change to reflect any necessary adjustments or changes in accounting estimates, that are identified prior to the time the Company files its Form 10-K.
The Company’s operations are subject to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, those listed below. When considering an investment in the Company’s securities, you should carefully read and consider these risks, together with all other information in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings and submissions to the SEC, which provide more information and detail on the risks described below. If any of the events described in the following risk factors occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows, as well as the market price of the Company’s securities, could be materially adversely affected. These risks and events include, without limitation: Macroeconomic and Industry Risks The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by disruptions in the global economy caused by geopolitical instability and related impacts. The businesses the Company operates are highly competitive and many of them are cyclical, which may result in fluctuations in pricing and volume that can materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Changes in the availability and price of raw materials and energy and continued inflationary pressure could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company is subject to material risks associated with doing business outside of the United States. Foreign currency exchange fluctuations may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Restrictions on trade through tariffs, countervailing and anti-dumping duties, quotas and other trade barriers, in the United States and internationally, could materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to access certain markets. Business and Operational Risks The Company’s ten largest customers represented a significant portion of the Company’s 2025 revenue and the loss of all or a substantial portion of revenue from these customers would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. A material disruption at any of the Company’s manufacturing plants could prevent the Company from meeting customer demand, reduce sales and profitability, increase the cost of production and capital needs, or otherwise materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Unfavorable changes in the availability of, and prices for, wood fiber may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company depends on third parties for transportation services and unfavorable changes in the cost and availability of transportation could materially adversely affect the Company’s business. Substantial capital is required to maintain the Company’s production facilities, and the cost to repair or replace equipment, as well as the associated downtime, could materially adversely affect the Company’s business. The Company faces risks to its assets, including the potential for substantial impairment of long-lived assets. The Company may be required to recognize a significant non-cash charge to earnings if its recorded deferred tax assets are deemed unrealizable. Failure to maintain satisfactory labor relations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. The Company depends on attracting and retaining key personnel, the loss of whom could materially adversely affect the Company’s business. Failure to meet the Company’s customers’ needs through the development of new products or the discovery of new applications for existing products, or the inability to protect the intellectual property underlying new products or applications, could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business. Failure to integrate AI and similar advanced technologies into the Company’s business processes may materially adversely affect the Company’s competitive position and results of operations. Loss of Company intellectual property and sensitive data or disruption of manufacturing operations due to a cybersecurity incident could materially adversely impact the business. Challenges and uncertainties in executing the Company’s strategy to grow its Biomaterials business may adversely impact its business and financial results. Regulatory and Environmental Risks The Company’s business is subject to extensive environmental laws, regulations and permits that may materially restrict or adversely affect how the Company conducts business and its financial results. The potential long-term impact of climate-related risks remain uncertain at this time. Regulatory measures to address climate change may materially restrict how the Company conducts business or adversely affect its financial results. Financial Risks The Company may need to make significant additional cash contributions to its retirement benefit plans if investment returns on pension assets are lower than expected or interest rates decline, and/or due to changes to regulatory, accounting and actuarial requirements. The Company has debt obligations that could materially adversely affect the Company’s business and its ability to meet its obligations. Covenants in the Company’s debt agreements may impair its ability to operate its business. Challenges in the commercial and credit environments may materially adversely affect the Company’s future access to capital. The Company may require additional financing in the future to meet its capital needs or to make acquisitions, and such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and may be dilutive to existing stockholders. Common Stock and Certain Corporate Matters Risks Stockholders’ ownership in RYAM may be diluted. Certain provisions in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as Delaware law, could prevent or delay an acquisition of the Company, which could decrease the price of its common stock.
Other important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements that may have been made in this document are described or will be described in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The Company assumes no obligation to update these statements except as is required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release and the accompanying schedules contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Debt and Net Secured Debt. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to its Board of Directors, management and investors regarding its financial condition and results of operations. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to compare its performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, to determine management incentive compensation and for budgeting, forecasting and planning purposes.
The Company does not consider these non-GAAP financial measures an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they may exclude significant expense and income items that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, they reflect the exercise of management’s judgment about which expense and income items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided below. Non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily indicative of results that may be generated in future periods and should not be relied upon, in whole or part, in evaluating the financial condition, results of operations or future prospects of the Company.
