Svenska Cellulosa SCA AB
Investor Relations

Svenska Cellulosa SCA is a Swedish forest products company that owns and manages large forest holdings and turns wood fiber into everyday materials. It grows and harvests timber, then uses that raw material to make products such as packaging paper, pulp, wood products, and hygiene materials. The company sits at the start of the supply chain, turning trees into industrial inputs that other businesses use to make paper goods, packaging, and personal care products. SCA sells to a mix of industrial customers, including paper and packaging makers, manufacturers, and distributors that need reliable fiber-based materials. It also sells forest assets and timber-related products, which gives it more than one way to earn money from the same resource base. Revenue comes mainly from selling wood, pulp, paper, and related products, with the forest ownership itself acting as a long-term source of supply and value. What makes SCA different is that it combines a large forest resource with manufacturing, rather than relying only on buying wood from others. That gives it tight control over raw materials, helps it serve customers that want traceable wood fiber, and ties its business closely to the long-term economics of forestry and packaging materials.

AI Summary
Q1 2025

Solid Profitability: SCA delivered strong profitability in Q1 2025 with EBITDA of SEK 1.65 billion and a 32% EBITDA margin, despite a challenging environment and higher raw material costs.

Revenue Growth: Net sales rose 13% year-on-year to just below SEK 5.2 billion, supported by higher prices and strong delivery volumes across most segments.

Price Increases: SCA implemented price increases in most product areas, largely to offset cost pressures, with further increases planned in Q2.

Cost Pressures: The company faced significantly higher wood raw material costs but was able to mitigate much of the impact due to its self-sufficiency.

Tariff and Currency Headwinds: Management is monitoring the impact of US tariffs and currency movements, with pulp exports to the US facing a 10% tariff and negative effects from a stronger Swedish krona.

Segment Variability: The Wood segment saw the strongest growth in sales and profitability, while Renewable Energy remained weak due to low electricity prices and biofuel market challenges.

Strategic Investments: Ramp-up of major investments in Obbola, Ortviken, and Gothenburg contributed to volume growth and are expected to further boost productivity and cash flow.
