JACKSONVILLE, Fla., August 4, 2026 - Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. (NYSE:RYAM) (the “Company”) today reported results for its second quarter ended June 27, 2026.
“I am excited to join RYAM at a pivotal time for the Company,” said Daniel M. Krawczyk, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The Board asked me to bring an operational lens, strategic perspective and transaction experience to a clear mandate: maximize value for our shareholders. I am fully committed to concluding the Company’s comprehensive review of strategic alternatives with urgency and discipline and communicating a clear path forward during the fourth quarter. At the same time, we will continue strengthening the performance and market position of the business while keeping the Company on track to deliver against its full-year objectives.
“Since stepping into the role, I have spent significant time with our employees, customers, leadership team and advisors, as well as interested parties participating in our strategic review and other stakeholders. Those conversations have reinforced my conviction that RYAM has substantial untapped value. At the center of that value is a highly differentiated Cellulose Specialties franchise, supported by leading market positions, specialized and difficult-to-replicate assets, deep technical expertise and strong customer relationships built over decades. These durable competitive advantages, together with a tangible pipeline of reliability, productivity and cost initiatives across our manufacturing network, provide clear, actionable levers to unlock value and deliver stronger, more consistent earnings and cash flow.
“Our second-quarter results were ahead of expectations and showed strong sequential improvement, reflecting both the value of our Cellulose Specialties products and the benefits of ongoing operational improvements. Our full-year trajectory remains aligned with our prior expectations, including generating positive free cash flow in 2026. Cellulose Specialties pricing increased 21% compared with the prior-year quarter, reflecting the value our products deliver in our customers’ most demanding applications. Our customers are critical partners to RYAM, and we will continue working collaboratively with them to help differentiate their products and create value in the markets they serve. We also remain focused on improving reliability and prioritizing the products and markets where RYAM has the strongest competitive position.
“To be clear, executing the business plan and completing the strategic review are not competing priorities. Stronger operations, disciplined commercial execution and improved cash generation enhance the value of the Company and the range of alternatives available to the Board. We also continue to advance select biomaterials opportunities that offer attractive investment economics and meaningful value creation. For example, RYAM retains a capital-light interest in the Altamaha Green Energy project through its land and prior investments, preserving potential upside without requiring additional cash equity from the Company. My focus is to build on RYAM’s Cellulose Specialties leadership position, partner closely with our customers and act decisively on the opportunities in front of us, while ensuring that the path ultimately selected captures the full value of this unique platform for our shareholders.”

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Net loss and loss from continuing operations for the quarter ended June 27, 2026 were each $33 million, or $(0.49) per diluted share, inclusive of a $13 million non-cash asset impairment. Net loss and loss from continuing operations for the same prior year quarter were $363 million, or $(5.44) per diluted share, and $366 million, or $(5.48) per diluted share, respectively, each inclusive of a $337 million non-cash deferred tax asset write-off.
Beginning in January 2026, the Company reorganized its segment structure and now operates in two segments:
- High Purity Cellulose: formerly the segments of Cellulose Specialties, Cellulose Commodities and Biomaterials
- Paperboard & High Yield Pulp: formerly the segments of Paperboard and High Yield Pulp
Prior period segment results have been recast to align with this new segment reporting structure.

| Three Months Ended |
|---|
| (in millions) | June 27, 2026 | March 28, 2026 | June 28, 2025 |
| High Purity Cellulose | $301 | $263 | $272 |
| Paperboard & High Yield Pulp | 75 | 56 | 68 |

High Purity Cellulose
Net Sales
Net sales for the second quarter increased $29 million, or 11%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by:
- Cellulose sales volume increase of 20%, including a 94% increase in cellulose commodities (CC) sales volume that was partially offset by a 23% decrease in cellulose specialties (CS) sales volume.
- CC sales volume increased as the Company’s plants experienced higher operating rates compared to the prior quarter and also shifted to CC production in the current quarter due to lower orders for CS products.
- CS sales volume declined as the Company executed its CS leadership initiatives. Partially offsetting this decline was lower CS sales volume in the prior quarter as Chinese customers delayed orders due to the geopolitical uncertainty with Chinese and U.S. tariffs.
- Cellulose average sales price decrease of 7%, including an 11% decrease in CC average sales price that was partially offset by a 21% increase in CS average sales price.
- CS average sales price increase was driven by higher pricing of newly negotiated 2026 agreements.
- CC average sales price decline was due to softer global commodity pricing and product mix within the commodity portfolio.
Operating Income
Operating income for the second quarter increased $9 million, or 45%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by:
- Increase in CS average sales price.
- Lower wood costs.
CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS
- Lower fixed costs due to reduced discretionary spending.
- Improved operating rates.
These increases were partially offset by:
- Lower CS sales volumes and mix resulting from higher CC sales.
- Lower CC pricing and mix.
- Higher inflation of chemicals and logistics costs.
Paperboard & High Yield Pulp
Net Sales
Net sales for the second quarter increased $7 million, or 10%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by:
- Total sales volume increase of 22%, including 15% and 29% increases for paperboard (PBD) and high yield pulp (HYP), respectively, due to:
- Higher sales of folding packaging PBD grades due to increased focus on this market segment.
- Higher HYP sales due to the timing of Q1 shipments, primarily related to delayed orders to Indonesia.
These increases were partially offset by:
- Total average sales price decrease of 10%, including 9% and 4% decreases for PBD and HYP, respectively, driven by:
- Increased competitive activity in PBD due to the startup of new U.S. capacity in mid-year 2025.
- Continued oversupply of domestic HYP in Asia.
- Weaker demand for paper and packaging materials due to global economic uncertainty.
Operating Loss
Operating loss for the second quarter increased $20 million, or 286%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by:
- HYP non-cash asset impairment of $13 million in the current quarter.
- Decreases in average sales prices discussed above.
- Impacts of the planned maintenance outage and market-related downtime taken in the current quarter.
Partially offsetting these decreases were the increases in sales volumes discussed above.
Corporate & Other
Operating loss for the second quarter improved $5 million, or 36%, compared to the same prior year quarter, driven by favorable foreign exchange rates in the current quarter compared to unfavorable rates in the prior quarter, partially offset by higher variable compensation costs.
Liquidity
The Company ended its second quarter with $145 million of global liquidity, including $57 million of cash, $76 million of borrowing capacity under the ABL Credit Facility and $12 million of availability under the France factoring facility.
As of June 27, 2026, the Company’s consolidated net secured leverage ratio was 4.2 times covenant EBITDA.

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-Q for the quarter ended June 27, 2026. 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-Q.
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. Our strategic initiatives and operating priorities may not achieve their intended results. Challenges and uncertainties in executing the Company’s strategy to grow its
CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS
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.
